ohhman11··on Mexican surveillance company Grupo Seguritech watches the U.S. border
And that's fine, I'm willing to accept that the world is full of people who hate freedom.

I have no doubt that the positions you paint as more acceptable than mine are an existential threat.

>Whatever it takes to ensure you and those who agree with you never, ever get any foothold in the discourse, let alone power

Luckily the likes of you lost already. Trumps idiocy pretty much ensured that we'll get a real fight rather than a polite march into the dystopian surveillance nightmare you wish for.

There's no-one seriously trying to turn down the temperature, the fight is going to happen. I'm armed to the teeth (in the EU!) and ready to do my best to ensure that the good guys win.

That's not even close to their main product, who cares?

You went from "license plate readers, stationary cameras, and panic buttons abound" in the article to "panic buttons", feels a bit dishonest.

>The crime is detrimental to innocent people, and although mass surveillance should not be the answer, it can only be fought through democratic processes.

Mass surveillance is detrimental to innocent people and to democratic processes.

Anyone deliberately facilitating that certainly deserves the worst fate imaginable. These are tools tailor-made to destroy democracies, we should treat people behind them like we treat ISIS.

It's downright trivial to hide a backdoor in a codebase like this.

This seems utterly pointless to worry about. You're fucked either way if you trust VLC.
ohhman11··on Media scraper Gallery-dl is moving to Codeberg after receiving a DMCA notice
What's up with people insisting that you need a lawyer to respond to a DMCA notice? That's some hilariously poor advice, like holy shit. I wonder if these same (presumably) rich idiots also hire a lawyer to read the terms of service when signing up for a service?

You absolutely do not need and should not spend money on a lawyer for this. The only way you're possibly going to get in trouble is if you're acting in bad faith, you don't need a lawyer to tell you if you are.

>hold israeli citizenship

Something arbitrarily bestowed upon them by recent European invaders that secretly built nuclear weapons to secure their claim to stolen land.

>Why don’t you say billions of palestinians in concentration camps? The type of concentration camps with hundred thousand euro luxury cars https://www.facebook.com/LUXURYAUTOMOBILECO/ and corrupt politicians living in mansions. You have no idea what you’re talking about, you never been to Palestine or Israel and you drown in your hateful lies

I've visited my family in Israel on several occasions in the past. I don't do that anymore though.

Palestinians are prisoners, they have to ask Israel for permission to leave. They are kept in large camps, even if some drive Maybachs.

ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
And Israel keeps millions of Palestinians in large concentration camps.

It's hard to imagine what sort of sick mind would consider the Saudi treatment of minorities to be worse. It's abhorrent, but it doesn't come anywhere close to how Israel treats people.

Besides, the whole concept of "Israeli arabs" is a bit hilarious. How are those different from other Palestinian arabs? Is it just that Israeli state considers them more acceptable than other arabs based on some arbitrary standards not grounded on physical reality?

>do you hate Russians?

Shoot every single Russian who supports the war.

>You hate on Jews

Israel is actively a bad actor, many of the ones you listed are not.

>All of them are much more clear cut than Israel that defends itself since 1948

It's dishonest to suggest that Israel was in any way defending itself in 1948, given that it's very creation was an act of aggression.

Despite a plenty of opportunities, Israel has never taken a step back to reset that. Because of that, Israel remains the aggressor.

Yitzhak Rabin perhaps tried and was rewarded with two bullets for his efforts. The Jewish supremacist who killed him is widely celebrated as a hero in Israel.

Oh, and when Rabin was killed it was the fourth assassination attempt by jewish supremacists that year. Now those same people run the country.

ohhman11··on Right to repair: Why the US military can't fix much of its own equipment
Stuff being bought went from commodities that could be produced by anyone to state-of-the-art black magic that only a select few might be able to deliver in the future. It's not surprising that the leverage has shifted towards the supply side.

That's just a lie. A plenty of Khaleejis live in socialist paradise

ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
Do you think those 2 million arabs would be particularly upset if the Israeli state ceased to exist?

>hate consumes you

I hate a legal structure and it's supporters. Yeah. Aren't I a bad person.

ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
>You are a bigot

Not at all.

>A bigot is a person who is obstinately, unreasonably, or unfairly attached to their own beliefs, prejudices, or opinions, particularly regarding race, religion, or politics

It's not in any way unfair to despise people who still support Israel after nearly a century of crimes against humanity.

That'd be a fair criticism if I subscribed to some traditional antisemitic views, but I don't really have any inherent problem with the jewish people. I just want the destruction of the state of Israel and any who would support it, it's purely coincidental that this includes most jewish people.

ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
I think at this point it's entirely fair to hate the state of Israel and anyone who supports it existence. Not because of blood libels, but over a century of Zionist aggression.

There's no need for just about anyone to live in Israel, it's a choice. It's okay to hate people for the choices they make.

ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
This is a completely unrelated problem, the US MIC is heavily incentivized to invent new problems.
ohhman11··on F-15E jet shot down over Iran
At this point Israelis (and the bulk of Israel-backing jews around the world) only have themselves to blame for the resurgence of neo-nazi conspiracy theories.

>antisemitic conspiracy theory that claims that Jews secretly control the U.S. government.

Anyway, this just seems to be fact, and not a conspiracy theory? Besides for the "secretly" part.

ohhman11··on Spain shuts airspace for US planes involved in Iran war
>So I wouldn't necessarily attribute the presence of 90% or later 100% health care to US money.

This is very strange, given that there would be no state of Israel without US money.

ohhman11··on Spain shuts airspace for US planes involved in Iran war
Why would you even bother to post this obviously false claim? Might as well claim that the earth is flat.
ohhman11··on Why the US Navy won't blast the Iranians and 'open' Strait of Hormuz
>That is not to say Iran is winning. Remember this is not a sports game, and no one needs to win. It is possible, and likely, for everyone to lose (be in a worse position than prior).

As of right now, Iran looks likely to end the war with permanent control of the strait of Hormutz. They'll tax the gulf countries in perpetuity.

Gulf countries can't reasonably afford to go to war with Iran over this either, and it's even less likely that they could prevail in such a conflict. Gulf countries can't even afford to go to war with Iran now, with the US actively fighting there.

Iran can suffer terrible short-term and medium-term economic consequences while still establishing a whole new kind of dominance over the region.

There would be no public education nor healthcare in Israel without US money.
ohhman11··on Philly courts will ban all smart eyeglasses starting next week
It's so fundamentally terrifying that someone would consider that "totally fine".

Prosecutors will take breaks in their offices within the same building while the defense has to leave the building in order to have a private conversation, that sounds totally fair and reasonable.

ohhman11··on Laws Suppressing Boycotts of Israel Violate Civil Liberties
Their message seems to suggest that the claim is worth more because of who it is attributed to. Without Mearsheimer's name, it's just an utterly generic observation.

The attribution would make sense if Mearsheimer had actually said something novel, or if his association somehow made the statement more credible.

ohhman11··on Laws Suppressing Boycotts of Israel Violate Civil Liberties
Mearsheimer says many reasonable things, but would you really want to cite him as an authority on any topic given his track record of spouting utter nonsense?
ohhman11··on Laws Suppressing Boycotts of Israel Violate Civil Liberties
If you cite John Mearsheimer, people will assume that you're also a zigger who subscribes to his view that Russia is fighting a just war in Ukraine.

If that isn't the case, you might want to find a less discredited source for your anti-Israel quotes.

Those platforms don't generate revenue

ohhman11··on Migrating to the EU
>you’ve now dropped the point about EIOs being non-public in some sort of allegedly sinister way

Nonsense, I told you that EIOs are non-public after you repeatedly insisted on examples of them being abused. I did not suggest that there's anything sinister about them being non-public. The sinister part is outsourcing warrants to other countries. I can't trust that the French legal system will protect me in France anymore because now I also have to trust the Hungarian legal system, that's bad.

Frankly, it seems silly to debate about whether or not these systems are being abused when we know that Poland has historically issued one third of all EAWs.
