  • No. This isn’t a thing you need to “both sides”. There is nuance.

    It’s bad for Netanyahu if settlers die. It’s good for him if Israeli people are threatened. His appeal is that he’ll protect them (including through killing others). If he fails to do that too often, he loses.

    Hamas is fine with people on their side dying. Israel is not. Israel is accomplishing their goals through genocide. Palestinians would love to genocide Israel, but they can’t. That doesn’t excuse Israel actually currently committing genocide.

    And there’s no excuse for settling land in areas that will keep Israelis in danger. The first settlers are Zionists, later people living there won’t (necessarily) be Zionists.






  • feel free to wow them with contactless payments

    This is quite dated. Per Forbes, "Nearly 90% of U.S. consumers now use contactless payments, "

    Tip at restaurants where they take your order at the table and bus your table, 15-20% of the total. Absolutely don’t tip at those kiosks at the counter. They’ll beg for a tip because software. You’re absolutely fine to hit skip or custom 0. Don’t normalize that shit.

    It was a good campaign. Maybe it could have been even better, sure, but the amount of Monday night quarterbacking in here is silly.

    The only thing I can question about it, I’m not even sure about.

    The problem wasn’t anything the campaign did. The problem was that “did joe Biden drop out” was trending on Google the day of the election. Tell me how to reach those people.

    Do you think there weren’t enough ads? Not enough door knocking? What exactly, would you have them do?
