Sure, there are no good guys in any war, since the good guys are never the ones with guns killing each other.
But the more genocidal death camps you have, the bigger a baddy you are. It's not that difficult to understand.

White House has absolutely zero control over an immediate and permanent cease fire, or lifting the Gaza blockade, that's all on Israel
The white house has plenty of influence over israel, they've just chosen to green light the genocide and netanyahu's regional escalation against the advice of our own experts.
An arms embargo would empower anti-netanyahu voices in israel who could point to his mismanaging of israel's most important bilateral. It would reduce the rate and kind of weapons the idf could bring to bear against civilians, saving lives.

You can find isolated examples from western cuisines (often rich people food) but mixing savoury and sweet is still an exception. You don't get things like how palm sugar is used in so many savory staples from SE Asian. Applesauce or quince paste aren't as ubiquitous in western food as chutney is in Indian.
I've also just met way more westerners who talk about salty/sweet mixes being gross. Raisins in rice, pineapple on pizza and fruit in salad are all things I've heard (mostly americans or australians) react strongly to.

You know that feeling you get when you look into your dog's eyes? The same parts of your dog's brain became active, so they're probably feeling similar emotions at that moment.

I always think of white people as the ones complaining about raisins in food. So many delicious savory dishes with raisins from the Middle East or India provoke strong reactions from western pallets used to food that only does 1 thing, rather than combining multiple flavours.

Some people love to dry hump strangers on a crowded bus or train, is that more like it?
I have to admit I don't understand what connection this has with paying for music apps.

While I agree with your disappointment in newsom, caving in to the rich is how you win elections in our "democracy".
The electorate pales in importance and definitely doesn't care about AI safety. This is about appeasing the money.

Let's ignore the question of what you think moralizing is if you saw it in the eight words you replied to. What I'm curious about is, do you think you're talking to Hezbollah? On Lemmy?

Netanhayu's not god, he's just a brutal lying tyrant with no respect for human life - so I can see how you'd get confused.

My understanding is that a lot of the big agribusiness is structured as a monopsony - all the people farming a particular crop have only one big Ag company they all have to sell their produce to and that company sets the price low enough that the farmers doing the actual growing for Big Ag are still getting screwed.

Exactly. That's a service that some rich people could be making profit on and here we are just giving it away for the collective good of our society. Won't someone think of (financially screwing over) the farmers?

Peep Show also has that joke - "Slaves, Jeremy" VS "Whips, Rimmer".
But there's a good chance that the answer wasn't slaves, but well paid, hard-drinking work-units, organized along the lines of boat crews, all working together during a public festival and overseen by well trained specialists.
Chinuk Wawa, also called Chinook Trade Jargon, is an incredibly simple language with like ~1000 words and basically no grammar. It's a pidgin of several native languages with some english and french influence. The language was spoken by settler and native alike, until the railroad arrived and English overwhelmed it. The Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde built a very nice app to help learn this very important part of our region's heritage. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinook_Jargon https://www.grandronde.org/services/education/chinuk-wawa-education/chinuk-wawa-app/ https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.chinuk.wawa&hl=en_US https://apps.apple.com/us/app/chinuk-wawa/id908108231
