@PeprnaMata Ja bych jen chtěla říct, že podle antický výslovnosti je to viki. C je k. A ea se l čte aj. Nemáte zač. Zamyslete se nad Caesarem a clovek hned ví, kde to ti Němci vzali.
Imagine [hopefully] reading a piece that calls for Gaza to become the pride and joy of the Palestinian people and a hub of compelling Palestinian national identity by rejuvenating the territory, embracing peace, and rejecting a terror organization that admitted to refusing Gaza development offers worth billions, including an airport and seaport, only to proclaim that the op-ed is "pro-genocide." And how was this brilliant conclusion reached? Because the article I published in The New York Times didn't do the ubiquitous "everything has to be Israel's fault" that seems to be the only line of thinking within the supposed "pro-Palestine" camp.
Speak to Palestinians in Gaza who aren’t Hamas or making content for the “pro-Palestine” community abroad, and you hear the same thing again and again. They describe, plainly and without theatrics, how Hamas halted Gaza’s development and crippled the broader Palestinian national project since its founding in 1987. They do not need to mention Israel in every sentence to sound authentic to outsiders, including other Palestinians or non-Palestinians alike. They simply recount their lived reality. For Gazans, Hamas is the central problem. There were no Israeli soldiers inside Gaza before October 7. The blockade that everyone loves to speak about was imposed after Hamas’s cross‑border abduction of an Israeli soldier in June 2006 and tightened after the group’s violent takeover of the territory on June 14, 2007. From that point forward, Hamas massively built tunnels, fired rockets, smuggled weapons, waged repeated rounds of conflict, and declared its intent to “destroy” Israel, while turning Gaza into a fortress of armed “resistance” that got Gaza destroyed, tens of thousands killed, millions displaced, and wasted billions of dollars. Hamas imposed punishing taxes on Gazans to fund its terror; stole diesel from Gaza’s only power plant and caused chronic power outages; suppressed women’s freedoms; blocked travel for anyone it disliked; and routinely killed, tortured, jailed, beat, and humiliated countless Gazans.
Research the political and cultural divides between Gaza and the West Bank, and you quickly see how many Gazans resent West Bankers for cheering Hamas and October 7. These dynamics are complex, real, and central to understanding Palestinian politics, yet they are brushed aside or overlooked to satisfy low‑information audiences who consume the toxic narratives produced by the "pro-Palestine" industrial complex. Some people are simply uninformed. Some are unsophisticated. And then there are those who know exactly what they are doing and deliberately twist, manipulate, and distort reality to manufacture ignorance and maintain obedience and Orwellian-grade compliance among the crowds.
@full_vd Mám celkem necelých 14 dioptrií na dálku; a blízko, jako tedy ultrablízko, bylo vždy mou silnou stránkou, ale cítím, že ty dny už jsou pryč. Ještě to pár let snad půjde, ale moc dlouho už ne. Je mi 35. Slyšela jsem výklad, že čím má člověk horší oči, tím dřív se to děje.

Poland is a big brother who used to be crazy but now tries to live an adult life
Czech is the middle sibling who used to be pretty normal but is now crazy
Slovakia is that younger mentally challenged brother you love but sometimes wonder how he's still alive
@faraniva@dprkarlos Yes, ther were forcing propaganda onto kids. The generation before normally know 3+ European languages. Than, only Russian, because why needing English? French? They change, how history was taught.
@keepzforkeep@dprkarlos We know how it was. They shoot people for trying to leave and put them to prison for playing rock music.
Soviets destroyed this country. Everybody knowing history knows it. There was never real communism anywhere, but boshevism killed more people that nazism and fashism combined
@hellofaliffe@dprkarlos@PushDemsLeft Systems of affordable housing and healthcare were there even before WWII. Those damn Russians only drained our country and shoot people wanting to leave.
@mojarrita1986@dprkarlos Lol, no. Because they let the good old houses rot and build this ones that suck. And you were on the super long waiting list, your political views and family history scrutinized. It was horrible part of our history.
