I would like to know what Modi said exactly to elicit such response. I know the guy is not of my liking already, but lately I am interested in knowing whether he is just playing as a relay for Putin or rather distancing himself from him.

You mean Putin, the Poisoner of Underwear?

Good like having Disney depicting that.

I don’t wish any such thing to the Russian people as a whole, against whom I have absolutely nothing. The thought of it as a possibility deeply saddens me.

That’s how we lost the possibility of a Metro 2033 film

Israel controls the maritime space in front of and air space over Gaza, the anagraphical and fiscal systems and the access of goods and people.

My “politics” is because I don’t think that any politically relevant (especially for the rest of the world) decision in the US is taken in or by the appointed institutions. And recent events, including the news we are commenting on here, are confirmation of this.

I’ll let you onto a little secret about Europeans: we don’t don’t give half a shit about the US and their “politics”.

You may well argue that we have your bases in our territory, NATO and your social networks influencing our lives, but I see that as our internal problem of still having to grow a proper pair, rather than an interesting consequence of whatever medieval situation you’re brewing in there.

And you wish you were in a cyberpunk dystopia. You’re in a boring one.

I think this could have been the normal evolution of the social network under anyone else than Musk. I repeat, it has always been built this way, for broadcasting. And I am sorry to fire on the Red Cross, but Mastodon is just the same: the only reason it is somewhat better than what Twitter was is that it is novel and barely populated and therefore elicits what in Italy we call mountain path courtesy.

I don’t really see a difference in Twitter pre- and post-Musk. It is literally built for this, for broadcasting with minimal discussion afterwards. I left Twitter a bit before Musk got it because I realized Reddit was better for discussing and obtaining informed opinions. And now I left Reddit.

You guessed it, I am not American.

Nor I have time to spend following the domestic politics of a country that was decadent when it was founded by terrorists (according to its own Constitution).

I am surprised still because this is 2023 and you are behaving literally medieval de facto instituting a new kind of feudalism gibing power to these people.

What’s surprising is that the US does nothing about it

Bad publicity is bad for business. And that’s all the US really cares about.

Let’s look at the bright side: at least it is obvious even to the US that being this close to Israel at the moment is something that is better done under the table.

End how?

So I am a nerd and being downvoted for pointing this obvious mistake?

It is like in the 2nd chapter of the fairytale the Israelis and all the others in the region based all their lore on. And it is relevant to the article since in it it’s stated that there were Palestinian flags brought by the protesters.

Journalist really need to acquire the knowledge of Arabs being also a Semitic population. The exclusive use of the Semitic label for Israel and the Jews in general is just one more disgrace in this whole story.

That’s not a surprise. That’s a russian soldier way of doing things. Everywhere, everytime and any time.

FTFY. Italy doesn’t forget the allies raping in 1944 and Mahmoudiya happened in 2006.

True, and that’s the kind of enterprise to which in Italy we gave the collective name of mafia.
