So basically all the strike achieved is presumably to convince Iran to actually make a nuke ?

[Boredfrom]

Iran haven't instigated war with another country for hundreds of years. There isn't any reason to believe they would be used for anything but preventive measures in an increasingly hostile region.

Go fuck yourself, pls.

And fuck you too, Hecht, for enabling these assholes.

[Boredfrom]

It's fascinating that they consider themselves learned and worldly complex thinkers but can't remotely tease out that many of the US's actions in the Middle East are done with the support and in the interests of other Middle Eastern nations. And that part of this does keep Israel in check because the US acts instead of them. That Iran/Hezbollah/Hamas isn't "on their side" because it operates outside of this stability.

Like all their commentaries on social relations it breaks down once you start to introduce more variables than one or two like people's skin color or gender.

Not just the US. The entire West, including Israel.

Quite frankly, the West has proven over the past century that the only real deterrence that exists is possession of a nuke. Any attempts to broker peace in that region were never made in good faith. Israel has shifted into a full blown genocidal imperialist country, and the nations of the ME will have concluded that someone else with a nuke in the region is the only realistic way to contain them.

Everyone in the Middle East loves Iran.

Nuking a city and killing millions in response to something is apparently a "preventive measure" now.

Uh, what countries have deterred anything with nuclear weapons ever? What countries does this dude think has nuclear weapons?

There's only nine nuclear states in the world. Four of them are the world's most powerful standard militaries. Israel's deterrence is beating everybody else in the region with a regular military. North Korea's deterrence is their threat to wipe away Seoul with standard artillery.

That leaves France, India and Pakistan as the only potential states that have deterred the West with their nukes. France claims to be part of the West, India desires to be and the last one got Osama killed by a foreign military within their borders.

Mass Effect shill and dude with a racist child gives his 10 cents:

It's important to also note though that groups like Hezbollah and Hamas and PLO and all that shit sprouted because of Israel's actions (warcrimes, land grabs, invasions, etc) in the 60s and 70s, hell since its inception as an apartheid state. Iran didn't create them...

They just made a life goal to destroy Israel, the foundation of the Islamic republic. 

There's also little things like the CIA backed coup that overthrew their democratically elected government in 1953 and installed a brutal dictator, causing huge Western resentment in the population, and the Iraqi imposed invasion of Iran where Saddam was dropping scuds on Iranian cities for 8 years, also heavily backed by US and Israel. That goes a lonnnng way in destroying relations.

They replaced their despotic dictator with a worse one and with less rights and liberties.

By this logic, one wonders what warcrimes Shinobi must've inflicted upon his family to inspire a counter-revolution within the realm of his own home (chud son).

[DavidCroquet]

Also this whole "but Israel..." argument falls apart when you think about events like World War 2.

Obviously, things like that are barely a footnote in history, so I can't expect an average Eran to factor it into their worldview. However, it is useful as an example of differing people doing not so nice things to each other in the past, yet having positive relations now.

Enterprising historians of Era might learn a lot from digging into these forgotten archives!

Notice as I mentioned earlier, his "explanation" completely erases the distinctions within the Islamic world. Hezbollah was created as part of Iranian attempts to gain influence with the Shia minority in Lebanon. Hamas was created by the Muslim Brotherhood to oppose the more secular PLO. They exist for reasons beyond anti-Israel for which they were unnecessary as anti-Israel groups already existed in the PLO and Lebanese government.

[Boredfrom]

I kinda need all these news outlets to STFU and stop goading Trump into further US military action.

Thats my thought when I see all these reports painting it as a failure or all the statements from Iran saying they are going to ignore the US demands regarding their nuclear program.


Just lie for god sake.

PLS LIE TO ME MASS MEDIA!

*looks at avatar*

Yeah. I guess that’s a reasonable interpretation. Hadn’t seen that.

[El Derpo]

i know where one went

Yeah you became what you can’t get.

I don't think that makes men that way, I think it allows men to be that way by scapegoating their issues onto something else. Typically women. I struggle to reconcile why men's behaviour is so profoundly affected by society 'beating down' on them when other groups society actively targets don't suffer the same fate.

The question of 'where to meet people' is a difficult one as in my experience it's so tied to your charisma and how at ease you are talking to random people. I'm fortunate, and don't take for granted, that I find it easy to connect with people wherever I am. I've never found it hard to find a meaningful relationship and still haven't been on a date with a random person from an app or similar. I'm currently in a relationship with someone I met while supporting a friend, I wasn't even looking for it (in fact, more the exact opposite). I contrast that with one of my best friends who's suffered with social anxiety and awkwardness his entire life, and the gap between our experiences with dating/relationships is a canyon. It simply wasn't possible for him to find and act on those same opportunities. Appreciate it can be taken as a brag but ironically I'm sure I'd completely fail on apps because while I'm super at ease finding connection wherever irl, my confidence in anything 'me' online is drastically lower.

You're circling something I do think contributes toward toward at least current male loneliness. Boys often aren't raised to build real community with one another. It may seem like it superficially with 'bros' but all too often – due to toxic norms – it's too shallow and not a real safety net for when they're experiencing difficulties and insecurities. Naturally not a blanket trueism as strong bonds between friends can be fostered, but it's not as much of a necessity (nor taken as seriously at large) as other groups needing to find community and organisation to tangibly confront the ways in which society targets them. I think this both leads men to feeling isolated when they grow older and those relationships fray and fade, and the inverse where they find the validation of communities like those build up around Tate and the like appealing as it's giving them something they felt they've lost (or perhaps never had).

This fucking cunt sure does like to speak about shit like this when they handed back their man card to become high femme, they’re so fucking insufferable.

Absolutely. If he's "always been a woman" how does he know what it's like being a man?

All of their knowledge about being men comes from the InCel stage of the InCel -> Trans pipeline, so high-femme’s comments are worthless.

Of course they are operating with the Era Trans shield so no one is able to actually disagree and Kyuuji has probably convinced themselves that they are an insightful genius.

He always thought he was, they just don't dissuade his high opinion of himself:





This man felt like a fraud of a man, so elected to opt out and into the "easier" womanhood rather than challenge his preconceptions of gender and masculinity:

I really don't understand how nobody there ever asks them who is supposed to be doing this. Are they asking God to do something?

they have a vague sense that trump is being allowed to do whatever he wants because the republican majority congress is passing everything and the republican supreme court is generally ruling in line with conservative ideals (whether due to bias or genuine precedent)

so anytime anything happens that they don't like, it's the same thing, even though it doesn't make any sense in other contexts

NO ONE is doing anything to stop anything vaguely evil or whatever

Except they've said this for years. They were demanding to know why the world doesn't do anything to stop Biden's bloodbath and whatever else. Remember the demands for invasions to stop Brazil allowing 1% or whatever it was of the Amazon to be cut? How often they ask for somebody to shut down fossil fuel use globally?

I think they think the UN and ICC are literal world governments that somehow have their own jurisdiction and military that can override every country if they just had the strength of will.

[Uncle]

To bring it back to Cauli saying we don't understand and nobody need explain, I've read hundreds of trans people (maybe thousands?) talking about gender. It's all like Kyuuji. Their own absent of any nuance stereotypes about gender, 96+% of which are misogynistic, that they project onto everyone else as if it's factual rather than something all in their head.

if it's impossible for cissies to understand, why do the tranimes waste so many words explaining every tiny detail about their warped perspectives constantly

I'm legitimately afraid to travel from the United States to Europe this fall. My wife and I never got to take a honeymoon, and we planned last year to do it this year. We haven't purchased our tickets yet out of, well, fear. Fear that we'll be treated poorly because we're coming from a shit-hole racist country, fear that the ATC will screw up and we'll die in a ball of fire, as well as fear that we'll be detained / harassed upon re-entry (we're both vocally anti-anything conservative / maga / republican / right wing, whatever word you want to use to describe this nazi turds).

Am I being paranoid? Should I postpone this trip? Should we move ahead with it? HALP PLZ. If you've made the trek this year from the USA to another country, I'd love to hear your experiences both abroad, and upon returning.

A little context. I live in Kansas, both my Wife and I are US Citizens. My bio father was an immigrant from South America, mother is a US Citizen.

You sincerely are showing some serious disrespect to Europeans by projecting American behavior onto them.
For f's sake just act normal and people will treat you normal, walking around somewhere like some kind of timid mouse because of things out of your control is just unreal to me.

Oh, look, white supremacist DISMISSING CONCERNS yet again.

[benji]

Mother's traveling to Europe next month and she's afraid as well, but mostly because she'll be so close to Ukraine and that Europe is full of criminals/pickpockets/terrorists tho so

Two posts later:

really the bigger issue is getting scammed/pickpocketed in some areas in europe and some sketchy hotels, and travel with electronics.

Of course not, whites and Zionists run the world and destroy anyone who threatens their hegemony.

just catching up, and what a coincidence, my gender also feels like a bowl of icecream.

[Garfield]

One of the things that made me realize I'm polyamorous was watching shows in which the main character had two love interests and had to choose one, and I was always like "why... Don't you just date both...?" Like choosing one of them always sounded so stupid to me. If you genuinely like two or more people why the heck would you deny yourself the possibility to get close to one of them? Also, wouldn't that result in having a sense of regret, thinking "what if I chose the other one instead?"? That really makes no sense to me :')
