Yeah that's a thing that works, apparently the 1st gen of these missiles would happily seek microwave ovens if they were nearby

Edit: looks like the microwave story originated in the Balkans but may be an urban legend.

I don't know what weapons they'll use in WW3, but in WW27 they'll use these thingies, check it out!

At least podcasts are relatively decentralized, or at least more easily moved

To a small degree maybe, but I imagine if you're not enthusiastic about killing children you get shuffled off to some other role reasonably quickly. As an institution they're motivated to match the real bloodthirsty psychos with the hands-on jobs, and give the genocide-support roles to the squeamish ones.

If/when Israel actually collapses, US and allies will be glad to 'paperclip' them up. It could be like the Ukrainian Nazis were treated in Canada, a preferred and reliable fascist to semi-fascist bloc that can be mobilized in the streets when needed. They'll build a "victims of terrorism" memorial, and if they've learned their lesson they'll be less specific about those victims.

So ideologically, I'd expect something that reflects those motivations: maybe a novel anti-semitism that's fused with and secondary to Islamophobia and a "stabbed in the back" anti-liberal narrative? Not sure of the specifics. And they usually deploy these ideologies in a semi-planned way, heavily reusing established ideas, so it might be cruder and more contradictory. But regardless, I'm confident that the worst elements of Israel will still be pampered and I expect they'll find a way to blame the Jewish dissenters as a 5th column. Maybe it will be as simple as anti-semitism for western Jews who didn't do their part for the ethno-state, while actual Israelis are "the good ones".

On the plus side, this would all be happening in the "good timeline" where Israel actually does collapse, and the whole imperial project is delt a serious blow. Hopefully China or someone holds some Nuremberg trials, which would make these plans a lot more difficult. The counter-force to everything above is the simple need to cut their losses and blame someone else, which would align more with conventional and undifferentiated anti-semitism.

Idfk, it's all fucked but at least it's collapsing.

Disappointing to hear, I caught some of his interviews and had a generally positive impression of him.

Note that OP did not actually ask for advice, and we're not really informed enough to give any. Like anyone, OP is going to have to consider how unhinged she is in totality, how much is tolerable at this point in life, if any other actions are feasible, and many other factors. None of us should be jumping to conclusions here, we're just projecting our own experiences onto OP. Giving this type of uninformed advice is no more helpful than a random guess, but probably more irritating to receive.

Edit: I'm referring to the thread overall, not just singling you out specifically.

We have to compare Sinwar to fictional characters because in the west we don't have people like that, only Spongebob

Months ago, some western propagandists were sitting in a conference room with catered lunches brainstorming narratives about how Sinwar is a coward living in comfort far from combat. Absolutely massive projection.

"Why aren't you more fascist? I think you're a weak liberal"

"I assure you I am incredibly fascist, I cannot emphasize this enough"

over and over again for like an hour or whatever.

Pauper is my favorite, so much room to brew and such a wide open metagame. Even though there's a huge card pool, new sets still often shift the meta enough to keep things fresh, without totally nuking the format like Modern.

It's a powerful format but without a lot of individually powerful cards, so you see a lot of unusual and kind of janky synergies you don't really see anywhere else.

A competitive deck costs as much as one shockland so you can put something together on a whim and experiment.

I mostly play dimir terror, but also have pestilence, elves, and orzhov blade decks I'm kind of iterating on.

Pioneer is also pretty good. And I play commander, like everyone, but I've been less interested in it lately.
