Sorry, i dont want to be rude, but do you actually have any arguments other than gesturing at the article & giving both-sides-isms?

Since this thread is about the article, no, I don’t.

Care to help someone who didn’t? I’d have gone for “YAML”

I’m certainly not going to defend anything Israel is doing here. Both sides in this debacle are bloodthirsty maniacs.

It’s not only in the article, but in the excerpt posted by OP.

If preserving jobs regardless of technology were a criterion, we’d still have farriers in every town. Things change. Good on them for getting a pay raise, though. It’s hard and essential work.

This is what, 8% annually or so? Seems petty substantial to me.

What is this even in reference to?

Seriously? Did you just see the word “Israel” and start arguing without knowing the topic at hand?

Did they use it as a targeting reticle in 1938?

I don’t agree with this, but I do find it idiotic and tone-deaf for pro-Palestinians to co-opt Hamas imagery and a symbol of violence as a show of support. It suggests they either explicitly support Hamas, or are too stupid to understand what they are displaying.
