Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America's Ruling Class, Finally Dies
  • My point wasn't that single people can't be bad, or do bad things, but ultimately to perform terrible acts at scale it requires buy-in from other people. Without support, whether it be through fear, coercion, or otherwise, it's nothing more than intrusive thoughts.

    Hitler was a bad dude but it took a concerted effort by who knows how many people in order to make the sick stuff that happened a reality.

    All the names he listed were indeed bad dudes, but I feel saying Kissinger stands out because he had the support of the government while the others just killed millions by themselves is not a fair assessment of what transpired.

  • You think because the names you listed were leaders of their countries doesn't make them part of a greater evil? No one person commits atrocities alone; there must be some backing.

    One single name doesn't get to make decisions... There must be a greater body at play. There has to be support of some sort, otherwise the people would have just said no, and killed that person.

  • The future looks bleak...
  • Look at that tribble on dude's head.

    But yeah, American tipping culture is out of control. They are even making me choose whether or not to tip at fast food restaurants now...

  • youtube getting more agressive blocking users after 3 videos
  • My buddy reported that he started getting blocked using uBlock starting today.

    I've never had any of the problems, but I have some caveats that may be helpful:

    1. I live in Korea
    2. I use brave browser with no uBlock as it's unnecessary
    3. I also use NextDNS at the router level.

    #3 seems to be of no consequence as I tried using vanilla Chrome and ads played while randomly testing videos

    That leads me to believe #2 or #1 is preventing ads.

    I didn't disable NextDNS since it failed at #3, and I haven't tried VPNing into a U.S. endpoint out of laziness.

    Either #1, or #2 is preventing ads ... I'm inclined to believe it is #2, Brave browser, that is successfully blocking ads; even without VPN, with NextDNS, I was still getting ads in vanilla Chrome.

    I think there is something in Brave browser that is currently overlooked.

    I hope it helps someone
