I mean, kinda? They're also heavily descended from 7th Century AD Arabic conquerors, but yes, many other natives may have adopted Arabic culture, language and religion at that time.

But Jewish culture is also derived from the Canaanite culture, with arguably more overlap. Jewish culture in the region can be traced back to at least the 9th Century BC, with the literal Kingdom of Israel. So the argument of "Well who was there first?" does not necessarily favor the Palestinians over the Israelis.

This has always been happening though. It's not like the Ottomans took over the region peacefully. It's been conquered and re-conquered by Babylonians, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans...

That's been happening for the last 5,000 years in that region though, since the Canaanites.

It's not like the Palestinians were the first there.

Yeah, as a heavy Google user I would use this if I had a reason to use a VPN. Google is scraping all my information anyway from my Android phone, my Google searches, and G-Mail, Maps, etc. They're not going to gain any additional information about me from usage of a VPN.

This is probably true for anyone using Google One.

If I had an iPhone or used DuckDuckGo or Firefox was taking other security measures, it's probably pointless, but I've just gone all in on only Google have any of my data.

Honestly it doesn't feel too far to me, and I generally detest doxxing as a tactic.

We trust and depend on journalists to expose and spread the truth and tell the stories people should see, but it's never supposed to be at the expense or exploitation of vulnerable people. It's one thing to expose the personal details of say, a hypocritical politician, but putting an individual's life at risk just to spice up a story seems to violate most journalistic ethics I'm familiar with.

• i know it is wrong but i dont know how to fix it

Get off Lemmy and go back to your elementary school English class?

I assume it's just the pace, but overall there's plenty of reasons to be frustrated.

There's already talk about how some of these cases might not be resolved until after the election, at which point, depending on how it goes, could be extremely problematic.

It feels frustrating because it's mid-2023, and we may "run out of time" by end of 2024. People ask what the fuck was happening for 2.5 years? The reality of course is justice is not always, nor necessarily should be swift, and getting these investigations even started takes time to say nothing of collecting evidence and putting together a case. But also, 20 years ago even a single criminal indictment probably would have spelled the end of a Presidential campaign, and instead, Trump is successfully fundraising off of these charges and leading the polls.

It's all just bonkers.

I can stop drinking coffee at any time.

... but why would I, when it's legal and easily available?

Just like pot in my state, in the back.

The gatekeeping is especially ironic (or maybe just hypocritical) because they didn't use this meme template properly, lol. You know, like a "normie".
