Feel like 24 hours is too little to do anything special with. Would have been a little more interesting question if the timespan would have been longer. A year?

Forest is pretty scary at night.

They are used to there being teams in everything. If you are not like me, you are with the enemy team.

Thanks!

Legacy from a time when it was used as authentication. I guess. I sure find myself not reproducing my past signatures very well. Never got me in to trouble.

I have a feeling Israels leadership don’t agree with you. Their chosen war tactic seem to hinge on starving the enemy until they are ineffective. To them; killing Hamas members are more important than any number of civilian suffering or death.

There is this concept of ‘Us and them’, a in group and out group. In conflict it is often utilized to make your guys hate the other group and ‘dehumanize’ them so that you can prevent your guys directing sympathy towards the enemy. The other guys may have different language and culture and whatnot. Language is one of the best barriers for sympathy and is well recognized by the ones that use this to their advantage.

To a large extent, I think it is the same principles that prevent people from recognizing the suffering of individuals of other species.

We apply importance to the recognition of suffering so we can prevent it. I say we apply it to everyone.

Now, of course we can nit-pick and try to separate out who or what we apply sympathy to. You could designate some things as just automatons; such as ants, bacteria or even viruses. But I’m not gonna do that now.

The current thing is the the stuff!

Well, education has to be there before the problem pups up. Start educating now and the next generation you reap will be better. It’s one of those “best time to plant a tree is yesterday, the next best is to plant it today”.

Uninformed, uneducated and isolated from other opinions. Conman wears your team color. Conman says he agrees with you, and not to listen to others, cause they are liars.

The only real solution to this is to invest in education and separate education from religion and politics. Make it free and easily accessible and digestible to everyone at any time. No private education. No home schooling.

Education makes good citizens that makes good decisions.
