  • when you don’t consider Palestinians as humans

    Quick question, were the Israeli civilians who were killed in a mass killing spree on October 7th human, too?

    I realise my other repeated question so far has been pretty tough and you’ve had to try to continuously dodge and deflect from it instead of just simply say the thing you actually think, but this one should be pretty simple and straightforward to just answer with a yes or no, right?? You kinda walked right into it, too, so.






  • against the horrific Hamas terrorist attack of October 7th, but it did not, and does not, have the right to go to war against the entire Palestinian people."

    If you look closely, you’ll find there actually are more words that follow. Keep reading.

    He did not say they “have” a right to defend themself, but “had” a right to defend themself against a specific event that occurred. He also makes clear that it is not a valid justification to go to war against all of Palestine.

    What issue do you have with his statement, exactly?



  • Block button exists for a reason. I’m using mine.

    The “Israel has a right to defend itself” line is pure misinformation. Here’s his actual quote, in full:

    “Israel, of course, had the right to defend itself against the horrific Hamas terrorist attack of October 7th, but it did not, and does not, have the right to go to war against the entire Palestinian people.”




  • Well this is getting silly if you’re just going to keep repeating objectively wrong things and also misrepresent what I’ve said (‘anything your current hardware can’t do is a “marketing gimmick”’ 🙄🙄🙄)

    Since we’ve left good faith diacussion and entered the realm of silly, fine! You’ve activated my trap card! Can your OLED do this??? presses degauss button You can see 85 Hz flicker, but I can bench press 1200 lbs and run a 60 second mile 🤪

    Enjoy your OLED and I’m glad you’re finally getting to enjoy perfect color, true blacks, and high contrast again after all these years!


  • You might want to reread my comment because you’re just making false claims that are already addressed about color and resolution (My CRT can display 2560x1920), or you’re only acknowledging low quality CRTs. I’ll give you 4K resolution as a flat panel win over tubes, and obviously size and aspect ratio, but I personally don’t see any value in it, as 4K resolution, ultra-wide aspect ratio, and extremely high framerates are simply marketing gimmicks. Obviously, others do see value in these and that’s fine.

    Perceiving flicker at 85Hz rate is literally far beyond human capability. 72Hz is an ultimate upper limit on where any flicker is perceptible to a human… and I run my monitor at 120Hz for competitive games lol. It is not physically possible that a human could see flicker at 85Hz. Backlight strobing of an LCD is not related to refresh rate, so would likely by 60Hz matching AC wall power.

    Anyway, there are some reasons that OLED is better, just unrelated to display quality. You can probably fit more on your desk than just a keyboard and don’t risk your back when moving your monitor.


  • Yeah that’s still normal. Unless we’re both just special. When looking at the center of a 60Hz CRT, the flickering is seen around the edges of the screen where I am not focusing. Or the whole screen if I look to the side of it. I also perceive LEDs flickering the same way you describe.

    I’d guess the fact that we are not seeing it in our focus vision probably has less to do with physical attributes of the eye and more to do with the way our brains create our perception of vision. There’s a lot going on there. Like our eyes are also constantly rapidly moving, and we are not conscious of or perceive that movement, there are 2 blind spots in our vision where our optic nerves connect to our retinas that we don’t perceive, and our brain invents the color that we perceive in our peripheral vision, which cannot physically be detected by the eye. Vision is weird and complicated.
