ismnotwasm's JournalI just had a horrible thought, re: The puppy killer
Republicans being what they are, especially Magas, I can see those assholes deliberately going out and shooting dogs to prove whatever they think is the point.
Ugh.
So I asked ChatGBT about the Israeli-Palestine conflict
I asked how I could determine who is right
I got a good answer
1. **Educate Yourself**: Start by reading and learning about the history, context, and root causes of the conflict. Understand the narratives and claims from both sides.
2. **Multiple Sources**: Seek information from diverse sources to avoid bias. Consider reputable news outlets, academic sources, books, documentaries, and reports from international organizations.
3. **Listen to Voices from the Region**: Engage with people from the region, both Israelis and Palestinians, to hear their personal experiences and perspectives.
4. **Analyze the Key Issues**: Focus on specific aspects of the conflict, such as borders, refugees, settlements, security, and human rights. Analyze these topics separately to form a nuanced view.
5. **International Law**: Familiarize yourself with relevant international laws and resolutions, such as UN Security Council resolutions, to assess their implications on the conflict.
6. **Historical Context**: Understand the historical events and key milestones that have shaped the conflict, from the Balfour Declaration to the Oslo Accords.
7. **Complexity and Nuance**: Recognize that the conflict is multifaceted with many layers and viewpoints. Avoid oversimplification.
8. **Humanitarian Considerations**: Consider the humanitarian aspects, including the suffering of both Israeli and Palestinian civilians, and the need for a peaceful resolution.
9. **Dialogue and Peace Initiatives**: Learn about past and current peace initiatives and efforts to promote dialogue and cooperation.
10. **Form Your Own Opinion**: After careful research and reflection, form your own opinion, keeping in mind that the situation is continually evolving.
Remember that this conflict is deeply polarized, and people's views can be emotionally charged. It's important to approach this topic with empathy, respect, and a commitment to peace and justice rather than taking sides.
I have started something similar to this process multiple times over the years and quickly get overwhelmed. There is so much. Ive established bottom linesIsrael has a right to exist, the Palestinians are in a constant Human Rights crises, Hamas is a very, very effective Terrorist organization, that wants Israel obliterated and doesnt care about the means.
Who's Making News? --a site tracking sex crimes against children
I follow this woman on TikTok, and I wanted to share her website
Hi, Im Kristen Browde, and this is a site that was set up because people wanted to see the data that goes into my TikTok series, Whos Making News for Sex Crimes involving Children.
Who is actually committing crimes against children?
Here is the data from the latest 2526 cases, as of Sep 4, 2023 .
What she has found is the overwhelming number of horrific crimes are committed by Republicansnot Trans people or drag queens. This is just the actual data. For instance;
- 80% of the top ten highest number of offenders per capita are Republican states.
- 100% of the top ten lowest number of offenders per capita are Democratic/Swing States.
- 60% of the top ten highest number of offenders per capita are in the top half of the most religious states.
- 20% of the top ten lowest number of offenders per capita are in the top half of the most religious states.

My point is Republicans those who claim to care about children while ignoring facts are just as bad as you think they are.
Wait, does George Takai read DU?
On threads, he has posted thr OP by Aristus, I cant copy it. Something about Maga wanting civil war and their leader already surrendering in Georgia.
Did anyone see this?
Biden administration forgives $39 billion in student debt for more than 800,000 borrowers
The Biden administration announced it would automatically cancel education debt for 804,000 borrowers, for a total of $39 billion in relief.
The debt cancellation is a result of the administration's fixes to repayment plans, which included updated counts of borrowers' payments.

I am in an argument with a lady on Tiktok
Well I wasshe deleted her argument.
Regarding the word Antifa
According to this lady, Antifa was founded by Stalin and Mussolini and this is trueall I have to do is google it, and I will find books by people such as *Rosa Luxemburg* detailing this
.founding.
This woman, just spouted out complete bullshit, confidently telling me I could easily confirm it for myself.
You know, I usually dont try to troll people anymore. I genuinely want to know where they are getting their information from. Kinda sorry she dropped out, I had no intentions of being mean(unless she turned out to be a bigotfuck those people) I think she was terribly misinformed. She had content on that app, was an older lady, hard to tell how old50s or 60s.
She approached me, telling me please dont support Antifa regarding an activist Veteran who is on the side of being a decent human being.
'Please Don't Move'
All of you fighting the good fight in Red states, sticking it out you are so incredibly brave to me. So many of these states have such incredible natural beauty as well. Thank you for everything you are and everything you do to fight the fascists.
Marianne Williamson is capturing the attention of the Left
And could very possibly siphon off the youth vote. Fuck.
Im on TikTok a lot and just noticed this trend. There is an article about her and TikTok and youth in The Interceptnot my favorite source, but it is a source I guess
https://theintercept.com/2023/04/14/marianne-williamson-tiktok/
By the wayshe is 8 years younger than Biden. Not exactly a voice for youth for those concerned
