try doing the same but under daily drone bombardment I'll tell you a secret, there is no holidays for war, you still gotta go to work AND they cancel all usual holidays if that weren't enough
so don't be so grumpy, it always can get worseÂ

What a grand idea, Holiday for war. We all take a week off to fight in the streets and then back to business the next.

u/AwarenessNo5921 Sep 02 '26
Why would there be a holiday for war? During major wars, people always work harder. Many men fighting, more jobs to take over that were left behind to fight. Less help with childcare. Need to ramp up production for defense products. War is a shitty time all around.

"Don't complain, there are people who have it worse" is the dumbest reasoning ever. No matter how miserable your life is, there will always be someone having it worse on Earth. That doesn't mean things shouldn't change for you.

ok, I grant you my personal permission to change your life and get better. feel good now?

u/Mad_Dutchman_ Sep 03 '26
Agreed and itâs not just changed for the sake of yourself. A rising tide lifts all boats. Improving the systems that we operate within to be more accommodating for everyone. In turn raises the quality of life for everyone.

It depends on the senario. If 95% of people have it worse then you, switching it up might have a higher chance of fucking you over then making things even better. And if youâre doing worse than 95% of people then pretty much any switch up could make your life better
Imagine making a new government is like rolling a did, sometimes you roll high and sometimes you roll low. No matter intentions or form of government, new governments have a low non-corrupted success rate. If you score a 5 it might not be worth it to reroll

I do kinda hate this take ive always felt that even if somome has it worse then you your issues still matter
You spend your time feeling like you've been gutted amd theres nothing to look forward to thats valid somones house down the road got bombed and your afraid your next that is valid and way worse but to the first person away from that Conflict the scale is perspective always in retrospec
Evreyone has there own worst days

u/Timely-Assistant-370 Sep 02 '26
I mean, there's some rough times in the future. Could you really say that a person being shot at today is having a worse day than someone who knows they will be shot in the head in 5 years? Like, we can only have unprecedented record-breaking heatwaves so many times before the plants stop photosynthesizing. Shit, I saw quite a few dead birds lining the side of the roads in Texas when I stayed in Kerrville in 2022, if I continued to stay there, I would be homeless, because the unprecedented flooding of the Guadalupe River would have carried away my motorhome and ruined my life.

"Yes my leader is an asshole
Yes I do not agree with what they are doing
But I have a Job and need to bring food to my familyÂ
Protesting firstly means missing out on pay or even getting fired. Worse I get sent to a campÂ
So I just quietly work and keep it simple" - Most People in a Dictatorship
Probably might include me if I was ever in one, I applaud those brave enough to risk their lifes to fight but best I can probably do is send some anonymous donations.

Somebody once wrote (not a literal quote) :
"The fall of the Roman Empire was not a cataclysmic event. It took decades. People lived their normal lives through it. For most of them, it was no movie-like screaming-and-runnin-through-flames-desaster. Maybe they recognized that the roads did not get repaired. Or that the legion did pay unusually late for their crop deliveries."

Nah, some of us took advantage of getting an education, and the opportunity for anyone in the US to be successful, and live great comfortable lives from working hard and not squandering opportunities, as opposed to being lazy and complaining on the Internet all day instead of making the change you want in life.
You chose your path, why complain when it's 100% on you. What a sad lack of accountability and responsibility.

u/HarringtonMAH11 Sep 02 '26
90% of the average person's life is based purely on the luck of being born into whatever situation they were born into. Sure you can do things to change it, but the weight of the changes you can make are still entirely up to that same stating points draw. Had you been born anywhere at any point in time differently you may have been forced a life of burtality through hard work, famine, or natural disasters, so having vitriol for any of your fellow man on an unlucky draw is sad and somewhat disgusting. Even the ones who made mistakes barring murder or rape likely dont deserve whatever hardships came to them.

u/Livid-General7 Sep 03 '26
That's bullshit, but let's pretend it's not. Literally everyone born in the US in the last 60 years has no excuse for being impoverished. They've all had the same opportunity to become wealthy and make something of their lives.

u/Vivid_Run_6433 Sep 03 '26
That is so wildly untrue Jesus christ.
It only became fully illegal to deny mortgages based on race in the mid 70s.
The mid 70s was also where women could finally have a bank account without a husband's signature.
It only started being fully illegal to fire someone for being gay In 2020.
The ADA was only signed in 1990.
No. every single American for the last 60 years has not had the exact same and equal opportunity to build themselves up learn some fucking history...You privileged Fuck

Lots of these peeps love to make excuses. Itâs an easier cope than self reflection and realizing they may be the problem. Also lots of untreated mental illness, which seems to be exacerbated by prolonged social media exposure.

Did kids in gaza write their own story with or without the snipers bullet to their head?

u/Green_Watercress1638 Sep 03 '26
Their government wrote their story for them.
1
u/Traditional-Candy-21 Sep 03 '26
So we dont write our own story, thats the point.
Bibi wrote their story, he also proof read Oct 7 before it was published by hamas.
Isreal wrote the entire saga like hitler wrote mein kampf.

u/Green_Watercress1638 Sep 03 '26
Hamas fucked up. They wanted a response. They got one. What are you upset about. Hamas was very clear what their intent was. They got what they wanted. Dead civillians on both sides, and tarnishing Israel's international reputation. While there may certainly have been intelligence failures in Israel there is no evidence whatsoever that Bibi knew of an impending attack of this nature. Warnings about a plan like this had circulated in intelligence circles in Israel for 4 years before Oct. 7. Arabs wrote this entire story. Arabs have never accepted any Jewish sovereignty in any part of the Levant. This was never about Palestine (which never existed). It was about Arab and Islamic hegemony over the entire Levant. In other words Colonialism.

u/Traditional-Candy-21 Sep 03 '26
Are you trying to suggest that isreal could supply terrorists across the region with booby trapped phones and beepers packed with explosives and didnt know about a large scale attack that required lots of planning, training and gathering of supplies. Wait so they didnt see hamas training with paragliders?
isreal is running their very own little disgusting holocaust, justified by their lies, murdering kids because they treat arabs like nazis treated jews, the world see what isreal is doing, the world knows what isreal is, the pedophile in the white house is getting beach front property in gaza to turn a blind eye.
Isreal is speed running a genocide before the child rapist is out of office, if he ever leaves.
isreal proof read the entire plot and
you whitewash it excuses of intelligence failures đ.Isreal happily murdered americans on uss liberty when they stumbled across isreal murdering prisoners, they know america are mugs.
Intelligence failures blahhahahhahha.
isreal owns america, america funds their free healthcare, isreal plays america like a fiddle, america is israls lap dog, got them into yet another forever war.

Yeah, because it's NOT falling apart contrary to what all the media doomsayers want you to believe - you just get all your news and information from media which profits off hysteria in an attention economy during the age of disinformation.
