You just would have rather have been lied to that this war was to "spread democracy"?

It’s great that everything I love is getting ruined so that the most mediocre people on earth can generate slop on a daily basis.

It's not just the "media machines". These two sides have completely different moral values.

Caring about others and wanting a fair, even handed and democratic government is not self-righteous you muppet. All you are doing is trying to justify your shitty ideals.

>Caring about others and wanting a fair, even handed and democratic government is not self-righteous you muppet

It's self-righteous to say they care about other people but want to help those people with other people's money, not their own. Statistically speaking leftists give far less to charity.


Statistically speaking, Right wingers have all of the money, even if they started off as liberals. This is silly Capitalist propaganda.

You'll notice it's about how it makes the poster feel.

Complaints against the right are usually about their actions, the terrible consequences and how they hurt people.

Complaints against the left are often how it makes the complainer feel, it's a mental struggle to not admit they like the result of right wing policies and not being able to embrace a left wing position despite knowing on some level that they should.


Your reply proves me right.

There is no anti-war movement on the right. The only time there is, is when a Right-winger is trying to win an election. Once said right winger inevitably starts a war, the pom poms come out.

Tucker Carlson is perhaps the most popular commentator on the right and has a significant following and he is adamantly anti-war.

There is a legitimate cross-ideology opportunity here that the war party (which spans both american political parties) is desperate to keep from materializing.


I think you are ignorant about the nuances of the US right. It is not a monolithic block anymore than the US left is.

Prominent right-wing figures who are against this war:

- Tucker Carlson

- Thomas Massie

- Candace Owens

- Marjorie Taylor Greene

- Rand Paul

- Steve Bannon

- Nick Fuentes

- Matt Gaetz

Honourable mentions:

- Joe Rogan (I know many people on HN would consider him right wing)

- Charlie Kirk (in the months leading up to his death he said it would be a "catastrophic mistake")

Trump's approval rating has dropped -16.7 points: this represents many of his core supporters bleeding away.


If everyone just noticed that they have to vote left the world would be a paradise /S

You can't vote left in the US, there are no left parties and no left politicians.

It's not 1965 anymore.

So you’ll birth one kid and she’ll birth the other?

Zero and zero?

what?

It's not 1965 anymore.

-5 Karma. Impressive.

There is a reason why the MacBook hasn't been replaced by an iPad with a keyboard and trackpad attached to it. Very different use case.

You're right. Those are completely separate millions of dollars to be made. Best not let them overlap at all, even if some of us intuitively touch our laptop screens to scroll a window now and then, especially when carrying it around.

They overlap plenty where it makes sense. There was a time where Mac users were worried that Apple was going to merge MacOS and IpadOS. Nobody wants that.

What is that reason? Clearly Apple can put desktop chips in the iPad, their desktop apps already support ARM, and the iPad hardware can absolutely run macOS. What is the advantage of iPadOS, instantially?

The advantage of iPadOS is that Mimi and Papa have a harder time breaking it.

At least we have trackpads that are worth a crap.

I do adore the macOS trackpads, they blow anything else I’ve used out of the water.

The keyboard (physically) is also just very pleasant to type on.


There is no comparison. I even use their trackpad in my desktop setup. The keyboards are fine. I prefer a mechanical keyboard, but this is a laptop of course. I do want to strangle someone over at Apple for deciding to NOT put the control key in the bottom left corner though. Luckily it's not a hard fix.

I agree. I've never wanted a touch screen on my laptop. My screen gets smudged enough already.

Well then this is great news.
