Take a look at the links I shared above. You might find them interesting.

Edit: @dumnezero to answer your question, the key words would be phasing out fossil fuels, and this could not take place in a week. So the answer is no.

Third, we need new ways to remove (…) carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year, and store it safely in the ground.

No, we don’t. Fossil fuel companies do.

If I got you right, it’s kinda the other way around.

Regardless of the last femicide, the government decided to promote these restrictive mesures on sex ed. That is because preventing gender-based violence and promoting consent are not notions that fascists care to advance, on the contrary.

I find it quite impressive that you feel entitled to dictate to me how you want me to post. You are free to post the way you want when you start doing so.

Edit:

1. The strikethrough
2. blueworld@piefed.world I am not proud of my reaction to your approach, which really hit a nerve due to its tone. If you look into my post history, you will notice that sometimes I add stuff in the body section sometimes I don’t. Personally, when the article is short usually I don’t. Apart from that I am more interested in the people who are willing to to read the article, and what I add is for them (archive link, the study that inspired the article, etc). I don’t care for those who are bored to make a click to check it out.

I don’t think I understand you. Why don’t you click on the link to access it? As the link reveals, it is from ScienceDaily, so there is also a summary.

Thanks for linking this. She does talk about this section at 37:39.

Yes, as she has said before, she is against the genocide. Still, even here, she says stuff like

Crimes by Israeli settlers tolerated by the government [38:39]

No. The Israeli government promotes and legislates those crimes in the illegally occupied Palestinian territories - it doesn’t just tolerate them.

I have noticed that she really doesn’t like talking about anti-zionist points, even tho every now and then she mentions that it is not the same as antisemitism. Here is a very gentle and well-intended critique of her approach to antisemitism.

This video is very informative and to the point imo, until she arrives at the point of Israel. Her analysis there becomes watered down to say the least in favor of white settler colonial zionism (after 42:55) by using the “both sides” arguments.

This is from the comment section of her video, and I find it very accurate:

Why would a study or analysis of the Palestinian Genocide require a look at antisemitic hate crimes? It has literally no bearing on whether Israel is engaged in a colonial project or exterminating Palestinians.

Great. Recognising Palestine is one part of the equation. Of course, this is done too many decades too late.

The other part of the equation is Israel. Practically, what will the UK do to stop its Genocide and when? It looks like the UK still supplies millions of pounds worth of arms to Israel

Edit: Freezing Israeli Zionist assets sounds like a great option too to stop a Genocide. And the UK knows how to do this since around £25 billion of Russian assets are held there (see article).

A relevant article from declassified uk:

Revealed: The British military college teaching Israeli soldiers

After months of secrecy from Labour, we expose where Israeli troops have trained in Britain during the Gaza genocide.

Israeli army officers have been allowed to study at a British military academy in central London throughout the Gaza genocide, Declassified can reveal.

At least two Israeli colonels have attended the prestigious Royal College of Defence Studies (RCDS) since 2023.

One of the soldiers, thought to be Elad Edri, only graduated a fortnight ago.

Another officer, Yeftah Norkin, completed the course in July 2024 and almost immediately led the army’s “Bang” division in Israel’s invasion of Lebanon. (…)

So, the International Association of Genocide Scholars backed the resolution declaring Israel’s “policies and actions in Gaza” had met the legal definition set out in Article II of the 1948 UN convention on genocide.

The Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention and Human Security has been calling it a genocide since 2023: Statement on Why We Call the Israeli Attack on Gaza Genocide. Btw Lemkin is the person who first quoted and defined the term Genocide.

And what Le Monde has to say on the topic is:

what his leftist government called “the genocide in Gaza.”

They are clearly supporting the Genocide in Palestine.

I don’t see anything surprising in what you describe. It is well known that Zionism uses Judaism as a tool for its settler colonialism for well over a century now. The Bund wrote anti-zionist songs at the time.

Clearly, Judaism and Zionism are not synonyms, nor have they ever been.

It is the Zionist state of Israel that tries to present Judaism and Zionism as synonyms. We shouldn’t fall for Zionist propaganda / Israeli propaganda / Hasbara, call it as you want, these are synonyms. And this is why we need to call out both Zionism and antisemitism.

Saying that Israel is a theocracy (…) because this is what the Jewish religion is, not only is an uniformed statement, it is also an antisemitic one. Israel is a settler collonial theocracy because of Zionist principals. (And the support from the West - meaning, the decendents of the christians and/or europeans that were procecuting Jewish populations for centuries. I won’t expand on this now.)

You conflate Judaism with Zionism, and this makes your comment antisemitic.

Edit: Being anti-zionist makes sense. See Jewish Voice for Peace - On Antisemitism, Anti-Zionism and Dangerous Conflations

I don’t know what to say, for me it works.

I see things differently. Condemning genocide is not an arbitrary test related moral purity.

And like Jewish Voice for Peace say:

Never Again For Anyone

as well as

Not in our name

Kirk was, “ironically,” talking about gun control before he was shot

Whitout doubting what you say, from this last tweet it looks like the narrative (at least in this instance) has shifted? In the sense that this text seems pretty clear to me.

No matter what, I hope the protest goes incredibly well!!

It looks like there is an expansion of the oil industry in the whole continent lately.

(Naively, I started writing the previous sentence with the word Unfortunately just to realise mid-sentence it’s not a matter of fortune, but of planning.)

Africa’s new oil frontier: Exploration hotspots across the continent

I can’t say I know what happened. I can say that I don’t trust what cops report.

It was a huge disapointment that contrapoints demonstrated this way of thinking on the genocidal settler colonial movement called zionism.

Personnaly, I listen to anti-zionist Jews on on the matter, like Jewish Voice for Peace, since they are the largest Jewish anti-zionist organization in the world. Having JVP’s input, I can say this word substitution doen’t work for me.

Still thank you OP for posting this because, somehow I wasn’t aware of it. I unsubscribed from contrapoint’s channel, and I will not watch any of her videos again, unless she has a change of heart.

I tend to agree with what you say but I feel like mentionning a couple of things I see perhaps differently.

I believe saying marine mammals are a myth has nothing to do with claiming alpha males don’t exist. The first is about a biological classification, the latter is about observed (or projected) social behaviors within one species.

Apart from that, and to my understanding, the manosphere has taken a hold of the alpha male narrative and expanded it far beyond the scientifically debunked myth. I do not imply that the fact that the alpha male myth has been debunked means that there are no hierarchical structures in species, just that when they are present, they are misrepresented in order to promote competitive narratives. This is why primatologist Frans de Waal inadvertently popularized the term ‘alpha male.’ Now, he’s debunking common stereotypes to explain what an ‘alpha male’ really is – empathetic and protective.
