He sounds like a deadbeat who never made anything of himself and now he coasts by mooching off of you, and if he had any self-respect he’d shred your checks instead of cashing them

It’s evil that he cashes your checks when you yourself have so little

He must have no respect for himself

They have their own money. Why would they need mine?

The purpose of wealth and legacy is to pass to the people who are the future, not the past. You will outlive your parents and your children will outlive you. That’s the direction it should flow - it’s evil of your parents to take your money.

Yeah let’s just allow roving gangs of brownshirts to run around attacking and terrorizing minorities

There are mechanisms to stop, apprehend, and punish those who attack and terrorize communities already, without regard to ideology, and without violating the state’s monopoly on civil violence. There’s even recourse when those mechanisms don’t get a fair result.

You should never punch them. Ever.

If it comes to war, you should kill them with guns because they’ll certainly use guns against you. Otherwise we’re all just talking.

Either we settle these disagreements as a civil society, or we settle them with civil war. Talking, or guns. It’s never punching, so you never punch Nazis.

Which people are tolerant and which people are intolerant is less obvious than it looks.

Like if you say “the Jews should be eliminated” then most everyone will recognize you as a Nazi unless you say it in Arabic and have a brown face, at which point punching you is a hate crime.

attacking that person is as much self defense as if they were commiting the act themselves.

With what level of force are you going to attack them? Surely a bloody nose isn’t going to be enough to dissuade them. So are we talking broken bones? Loss of an eye? Or force to the extent that they die from it? After all nothing’s safer than a dead attacker.

Ok but now you’re the one talking about extermination… so what do we do with you? The problem with the Paradox of Tolerance is that there’s a Paradox of Intolerance, too.

Doing what? Fighting a war they didn’t start?

No ethnographic studies have shown that any present or past society has used barter without any other medium of exchange or measurement, and anthropologists have found no evidence that money emerged from barter.

What would be an example of the barter economy you’re certain exists? How do they overcome the need for double coincidence?

There is a large difference between war and genocide.

But that’s what I’m asking you. Can one side achieve overwhelming victory, in your view, without you calling it a “genocide”?

No, right?

I know you know you’re a loser

Does war exist, in your view? Or is it always a case of the winner murdering the loser, unjustifiably?

This is literally the first post where you’ve understood what question I even fucking asked, I think you’re obligated to give one attempt at an answer before you take your third place victory lap

I continue to recommend that you read the paper past the abstract, hope that helps

Relevance?

Why would anyone care about “tremors”?

I am serious, and don’t call me Shirley

No you asked why hadn’t they raised prices before.

Sorry, you’ve misunderstood the question. Obviously there have been price increases in the past.

If a company, on this present date, raises the price of a widget they sell to $X.XX, I’m asking you why it wasn’t already at that price. Why had they waited?

If the paper says something the abstract doesn’t then it’s a bad paper or a bad abstract.

The whole point of an abstract is that it’s not the entire paper, stupid

I’ve gone to every link you’ve provided to me and none of them were a UN study.

Because you won’t read past the abstract. I can only give you the sources; I can’t make you read them.

Also a funny story, one link I provided you had multiple IPC reports.

You didn’t provide a link.

t. Or you wouldn’t have said something so demonstrably false about Gazan aid being turned around.

It’s not a news story about aid being turned around in Gaza. It’s a news story about aid being turned around at the Gazan border because it contains impermissible dual-use items that are forbidden in aid shipments to Gaza.

Finally, accusing UNRWA of incompetence while blocking and attacking their aid convoys has been an Israeli propaganda line for most of the past ~10 months.

You’re correct that it’s propaganda but you’ve misattributed it. It’s Hamas propaganda.
