<p>You could also give credence to the reporting that US/Trump has messaged to Iran that they should ignore Trump declarations as they are intended for internal audiences.<p>During the rest of the conflict Trump has doubled down on threats, I mean "a civilization will die tonight" is not peacefully. I wouldn't doubt that Trump might believe Iran is weak, but I also think is more than proved that US wartime messaging is mostly directed internally to keep people dumb.</p>

<p>I would like to draw in the dots because this needs to be made explicit for some who have the unconscious bias of not seeing brown people as people.<p>Trying to garnet sympathy using this example when the state of Israel is built on hundreds of thousands of people literally losing their home, if not their life in an attempt of taking their home, is schizophrenic at best, but at worst vile racism.</p>

<p>Nobody in power cares about that "America First" bullshit. It's always their business first, and so far seems like their money is ok. But anyway, let's consider; what would be the worst case scenario? Let's say Netty leaks a video or several of Trump abusing young girls. In this cultural zeitgeist of conspiracy, fake news and AI content,  how much of their fanbase would actually believe that?<p>It's easier to consider that Trump got played with his big ego and even if he's looking for an off ramp, there seems to be none that would let him off the hook while still looking strong, as him looking weak is the only thing that maybe could actually harm his business.</p>

<p>The funniest part of DPRK is how we got bombed with propaganda about how the "supreme leader" was a madman that shouldn't be allowed to have nukes because he would immediately use them and then suddenly the propaganda stopped as soon as there was evidence that they had actual nukes. I suspect the same thing would have happened with Iran if they had gotten them.</p>

<p>> We are not [...] saviors of the world.<p>This is definitely true. You are getting cheap educated labor, boosting your country's economy and crippling competition. Self interest, not savior behavior.<p>Now, that's irrelevant to the argument you are replying, that shows the holes in the wage depression argument.</p>

<p>> but most users didn’t notice the bias — unless they were in the negatively portrayed group.<p>I don't think this is anything surprising. I mean, this is one of the most important reasons behind DEI; that a more diverse team can perform better than a less diverse one because the team is more capable of identifying their blind spots.<p>I find funny but unsurprising, that at the end, it was made a boogie man and killed by individuals with no so hidden biases</p>

<p>I'll be honest, these, like the equivalent "cancel culture" statements, can only come from the politically naive or from someone accessory to the oppressive systems. "Normalizing removing services because the tenant does something disagreeable"? What the hell do you mean?, that is already normal. The only difference is that is usually the disadvantaged side that gets hit; when it's the regularly protected entity, and then and only then, we get these statements about "What if it happens to someone you support?".</p>

<p>Leaving personal feelings about the person. What exactly does 2nd amendment guys think using guns to fight "tyranny" looks like? People rising up to a group of people clad on black clothes and an eerily fascist reminiscent symbol ala rickandmorty?<p>Some people using guns to defend themselves against who they believe are the harbingers of this authoritarian State is 2nd amendment working as intended. Not a "tragic but necessary sacrifice" as some will put school shootings, but actually what right to bear arms is supposed to be about.<p>And it's immaterial if you ultimately disagree to whether this administration is authoritarian, but these things will keep happening as long as enough people believe that to be the case. It's a feature, not a bug.</p>

<p>I would say dang, that is getting really hard to take this justifications seriously, specially in threads like this where the interlocutor is fishing for reactions. Calling for the whole population to be struck is bad, like really bad; but it's not coming out of nowhere where the other guy is pretty much (politely) celebrating the actual annihilation that is happening right now.</p>
