Is he? I haven’t seen any confirmation of that. But I think it said he was shot in the neck from the back, which sounds pretty lethal.

kidney_stone@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.ml•Aid flotilla with Greta Thunberg set to sail for Gaza to ‘break illegal siege’4·14 days agoTo be honest, I don’t think any aid will reach anyone. I think this is a move that puts Israel in a position to either let them through (unlikely) or violently intercept them and do something bad enough that the western governments whose members are on those ships are actually forced to care by the public.
Not entirely sure, I think it’s just the way some influential people started talking and now everyone is replicating it. The origins in why people talk like this is probably partly rooted in a mix of virtually ‘yelling’ and old people writing in all caps because they can’t see the small letters.
kidney_stone@lemmy.worldto Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•If GLP-1 Drugs Are Good For Everything, Should We All Be on Them?4·25 days agoI mean, I am no medical professional, but do studies also show which negative conditions do diabetes medications influence? Because there is no way they come without some bad effects.
I kinda agree with you. Very often people with strong moral convictions (a good thing, in my opinion) believe that evangelizing alone is the only ‘valid’ approach, while popularity and convenience are seen as somehow ‘dirty’. But it is impossible to ignore the reality of how much people in their everyday lives want and need convenience. And when it comes to social media, popularity is inherently important, because people want to hang out where their real life friends hang out too. So convenience and popularity are a material necessity if a cause is not to be a losing cause.
I am also interested in this.
I guess that most people wouldn’t really know, because who with a sound mind would like to spend time listening to garbage being produced by right wing grifters. Most of us just assume they are trolls and cannot have their minds changed, and we are right in this assumption most of the time, I would say.
The only right wing person I have ever heard to actually question his own beliefs is Jordan Peterson during the Žižek debate. That’s it. And it is probably because Peterson isn’t really a troll or a grifter, he is just endlessly confused and ignorant and angry. I can’t think of a single other case. And I would assume the same goes for Kirk. Everything I have ever heard about this guy is absolutely abominable.
