Took me longer than I care to admit before I realised this was the Onion.

Well shit.

In that case, keep posting!

Well written.

I fear there are many on Lemmy that don’t truly grasp the gravity of the current geopolitical climate, and despite you laying it out here with ease, people will disagree with your assessment.

Keep writing like this, we need as many doses of reality as we can muster in amongst the genocide apologists and arm chair experts.

Israel isn’t targeting non-combatants

How many thousands of children have been slaughtered by Israeli troops?

If you want to be pedantic, and you’re talking only about this specific attack, children were killed in these pager/walkie-talkie blasts too. Are they enemy combatants to you?

Don’t be a genocide apologist.

Five years ago, if you had asked me if Israel would be committing terrorist attacks across Palestine, Lebanon and beyond, I would have said absolutely not.

I would have been wrong, even back then, but jesus fucking christ, what an absolute shambles.

How my government supports this state-sponsored terrorism is beyond me.

I would absolutely love to believe this, and I sincerely hope this becomes the reality of the situation in the future. That being said, as it currently stands, this is just not true.

Morgan has so far consistently chosen party over country.

Perhaps too generous, though I am holding out some hope that many of the people caught in the cynical political machine of Reform can still be pulled out of the spiral.

Ignorant, perhaps, but not beyond hope.

Absolutely - I think it would go some way towards building back the trust that has been lost with politicians in Wales. Unfortunately, though, I think that alone won’t be enough to bring people back into the fold, so to speak.

We need greater communication, easier to understand bills and political action, and I would imagine it would also help if we had some kind of legitimately progressive innovation in Welsh Government. We’ve been stagnating for years now, simply ‘un-doing’ whatever disastrous things the dreaded ‘Past governments’ did, is no longer enough.

Beast master

I was really into He-Man and honestly all things medieval so thought it’d be great for me, but that film kinda fucked me up for a while as a wee one.
