If I were a zionist, I’d definitely use this sort of argument when talking about Palestinians. Lol you can go to West Bank and talk to them, therefore there’s no genocide.

Europe@feddit.org•If your country's government enforces an automatic draft register, what would be people's reaction?English
1·2 days agothere are European countries where the draft is normal and expected for men over 18 ([…] Croatia)
It’s not normal nor expected. The draft in Croatia was abolished two decades ago (and even before that it was practically nonexistent for years, since 90% of the draftees opted for civil service). It’s been reinstated literally a few months ago, the very first batch of draftees is, I suppose, currently in training.
EU identity cards,
That doesn’t exist.
driver’s licenses or passports verifying if they’re over 18
Neither of these are mandatory or relevant for establishing someone’s age.
you can be called up at any time when the circumstances deem it necessary
But that’s not what a draft is? A mandatory military draft is required for men aged from 18 to 20-something. When called, they either have the option to do civil service, or they go to the military training. Afterwards those in the latter group go on with their lives but can be called up if soldiers are needed.
Basically I don’t understand what’s the actual problem here. 🤷♂️

You barely responded to anything I wrote. The key words seem to correspond, but nothing here actually builds upon the previous comments, it’s either restating things or saying something (as far as I see) unrelated and illogical.
What exactly are my own best interests that I’m supposedly voting against by supposedly voting for Democrats? Why are my best interests crucial here anyway? Could we also take into account the 200 dead Iranian children’s best interests? I think they’re more important than mine, honestly.
Who tied these people to the tracks?
A mentally ill guy who’s mentally ill because his alcoholic father treated him horribly as a kid, and his father was an alcoholic because he lost his job because of the economic recession.
What now?
are they watching me decide?
Why do you care? Does that affect your decision?
There is no “non-rigged” game, this is a very messy world burdened with centuries of unfairness. At some point you’ll have to move on from merely pointing out who’s at fault towards actually trying to fix things.
I’m sure their feelings are very hurt because you hate them :(

World News@lemmy.world•Wireless festival cancelled after Kanye West banned from entering UKEnglish
26·10 days agoWest has said literally nothing about Israel, he’s been spouting racist, antisemitic, Holocaust-denying garbage for years and has been screaming openly and proudly that he’s a nazi. His antisemitism is built around his delusions of being prosecuted by the jewish musical lobby. His latest hit is a song whose refrain goes “nigga heil Hitler, nigga heil Hitler”. Any person with a modicum of moral integrity ought to have a “beef” with this idiot. Scroll through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Views_of_Kanye_West a bit.
Trying to whitewash a bald-faced nazi into a mere “POS” who’s a victim of UK’s “fascism” is revolting. I mean it. Please read through the above link and reconsider.
The number of Musicians, Politicians, and Religious Leaders on this list really leaves the impression that it’s arbitrary and personal
Those arbitrary bans for reasons such as, uhh, “systematic approach to the torture and murder of civilians”, “criminal convictions”, “war crimes”, “anti-LGBT rhetoric” and “involvement in London bombings”???

Memes@lemmy.ml•The “equality before the law” libs tout has only ever existed on paper

“Laughable”, “disingenuous”, “you’re wilfully lying”, wow easy with those arguments there. I made the comparison based on your own logic.
Try walking into an Uyghur reeducation camp, lmao.
