Still might be enough regenerative braking from just the weight of the truck though.

In that case no, because it’d be bringing the weight of the truck and the ore with it.

Harris seemed like a candidate that could stand against Trump in a way that Hillary Clinton never was.

How? Harris was/is the same centrist neoliberal “hold your nose and vote for her” slop Clinton was.

Setting aside whether she would’ve won had she been a white man, she could’ve made up for that handicap by appealing to the right people if she had actually been trying to win. Pinning it completely on her race and sex simply ignores her absolute failure of a campaign.

Until she woke up one day and thought she was Republican.

Exactly. I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make, but that is exactly what happened.

It’s not just the “I don’t vote for genocide” camp; there’s also the “can’t this fucker at least campaign properly” camp and the “I’m not voting for this right wing nonsense” camp, among others. Harris was just that bad at this.

1-America imports smart people from all over the world.

2-Technical smarts and don’t-vote-for-fascism smarts are different.

There are other wordle sites BTW so it’s not like you have to stop playing the game, just don’t use NYT’s version.

is false.

How so? Hamas attacked a number of Israeli military bases and outposts on October 7th, which was along with taking hostages the goal of the attack. The Israeli narrative conveniently ignores that, painting the whole thing as one big act of barbarism.

still Hamas killing innocent people is not deserving of compassion albeit I understand their reason.

It’s not about compassion. They definitely committed a bunch of atrocities on October 7th, and that very much deserves condemnation, but ignoring the very real military goals behind the attacks helps no one but Israel. Nobody really talks about that anymore, but if you remember before it was overshadowed by the genocide in Gaza things like how much of Israeli accusations against Hamas was true, how many casualties were Israeli friendly fire, what Hamas’s goals behind the attack were, etc etc were still open questions. The world quite reasonably stopped focusing on these things because Israel kept one-upping themselves in genociding Gazans, but that had the side effect of cementing the Israeli narrative on them as reality in the minds of most pro-Palestinian Westerners. What I’m saying is: Condemning terror that happened during the attack and condemning the attack itself are a different things, and one of them invalidates many legitimate acts of resistance.

I mean okay but that’s how it reads like, especially because that myth is still alive and well.

Yeah you’re making that statement but it’s not true. Their acceleration relative to an inertial reference frame is g. That’s what the law of universal gravitation says, I have no idea where you’re getting that stuff from.

What legitimacy do you see in Israeli Apartheid? Because, long story short, that’s what the Israeli side is selling.

Yes but that’s the implication when you say “the terririst attack that killed 1200 young Israelis”.

Static friction causes that result because it matches the force it’s resisting. Gravity doesn’t do that, so while the total vector will still be pointing away from the ball, it will point away from it with a slightly smaller magnitude.

So omission bias? All this fanfare for omission bias? Nobody is using Mondoweiss as their primary news source; they have no reason to report on everything, especially an event like Nova music festival was reported on by everyone and their mother.

If they do, they probably want revenge for the Nakba in 1948, in where Israel has systematically expulsed and cleansed Palestinians from their native soil.

The Nakba was really bad and heavily shapes modern Palestinian consciousness, but nobody is seeking revenge for the Nakba itself anymore. It’s more about retaliating against much more recent and current offenses, mainly the Gaza blockade and settlements, resisting Israeli occupation and freeing Palestinian detainees.

They used the population of the Gazastrip as human shields, building there bases in the City sometimes near hospitals. Using human shields is a war crime.

Correction: Israel claims they used (and still use) human shields. Those claims have not been proven in any way. You’ll say they build their military bases and headquarters in cities, but literally every military in the world does that.

Hamas doesn’t want a two state solution,

Look up the 2008 and 2012 ceasefires. Hamas isn’t fundamentally opposed to a two-state solution. It’s not their preferred result, but they’ve taken part in serious peace deals more than once only for Israel to destroy the whole thing.

while Palestinian refugees fled to their side of the border or neighbouring states.

Technically not incorrect, but too much passive voice. Palestinian refugees were expelled by Israel, either by being directly told to leave or die or through massacres.

The terrorist attack that killed 1200 young Israelis

Another correction: The attack that killed 1200 Israelis, 33% of which were legitimate military targets and 66% of which were civilians. Don’t let Israel trick you into thinking Hamas just entered, killed a bunch of civilians and left, because that creates what they consider justification for their genocide.

1910s Irish republicans,

Wait really? I thought terrorism was more of a Troubles tactic.

Maybe provide examples? I see nothing that would prevent me from saying that with a straight face. There, lemme just…

Mondoweiss isn’t unconditional pro-Palestine propaganda. It’s a well-sourced pro-Palestinian news site.
