>So you were supposedly a woman up until now
Nah. I was just joking around. I've always been a man, but I just don't bother to ever put that info expressly out there. I actually had a few times people assume I'm a girl, and I never corrected the pronouns cause I didn't give a crap. But if anyone ever asks if I'm a guy, it's not like I hide it.

Guys... I have some disappointing news for you all... I was a guy all along. That's right. I'm a man. :pepeshock: 🤯

The voice is quite impressive. I don't use these things, so I thought that was someone reading at first.

Can't speak on that to be honest. The few Jews I've seen speaking on these matters seem pretty content with the current status-quo, and the only thing they want changed is that the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah basically stop with the missiles. But that's not enough to extrapolate to what most Jews want.
Though, since Netanyahu's popularity is not that great, even in Israel, I doubt the majority of Jews are keen on the kinds of military operations that would be required to do this kind of a ethnic cleaning. They're probably already complacent with the status-quo.

I've been thinking about something after hearing Tim Pool rant about AI this past week. I'm seeing more and more people recently start saying that democracy failed, or that liberalism failed, and whatnot.
So I've been trying to think what government structure could realistically replace it. I don't think we'll have a retry of anything that has been tried already. So I don't think a return to old school monarchy is possible. Nor will we see fascism or communism again. But it's also hard to imagine something completely original...

But with the AI rants and fearmongering that has been growing for the last half a decade, I ended up envisioning "techno-feudalism". We'd go back to having a king or kings, but it would be an AI king, with limitless computational power, with enough knowledge to assign each individual to the best job that fits their abilities.

You'd essentially have a class system again, with zero individual mobility, because the AI already calculated the perfect job for you. You're probably not gonna be born into your class and forced into the job your parents did, like you'd have in classic feudalism. The selection will be done later in life and there would be some possibility that you'd be assigned something different from your parents, but that also includes having a worse job.

But the minutia of daily life probably fits more or less with what the original post describes. Although, you'll be very limited when it comes to any vice. Drinking, eating unhealthy, drugs... I have a hard time imagining those will be permitted.

As for the government lying to you... the AI will be the government. And whatever it will do, I don't even know if it'd be accurate to call lying. It might very well not lie at all, and just be intellectually so advanced, that it can argue with anyone till they either become convinced that the AI is right and knows best, or they get exhausted of arguing and just do what the AI tells them to, even if they disagree.

I fucking knew it! You're one of those white niggers, aren't you!

@theorytoe This is so stupid... you're a mayor. You're not in charge of foreign affairs. You not only have no place to visit Israel or Ukraine, you have no right.

Also, depending on what you mean by the word "Jewish" Israel may, or may not be a Jewish state at this very moment.
I've heard the word "Jew/Jewish" refer to 3 things: religion, ethnicity (or race) and nationality.
Right now, Israel is NOT a Jewish religion state. There are people of multiple religions, and atheists, that live, with citizenship, in Israel.
Israel is also not a Jewish ethnicity (race) state, as there are citizens with Palestinian or Arab ethnicity that live and work over there. Not to mention that the whole Jewish ethnicity thing is not that unified either, with Ashkenazi Jews, European Jews, etc., all living there. So Israel really isn't what you'd call an Jewish ethnostate.

If you talk about "Jewish" as being the nationality, then sure, Israel is a Jewish nationality state, in the same way you'd say France is a French state (keeping in mind that these days France has black minorities with citizenship and all that, and likely all sorts of other ethnic minorities, besides the French ethnic majority, but everybody has the French nationality bestowed on them).

The thing I hate about how the same bloody word (Jewish) is used to mean different things is that it becomes confusing, and bad actors intentionally exacerbate and amplify the confusion, as a means to attack those who are ethnically Jews.
"Why do (((they))) get to have an ethnostate and we don't?! Checkmate atheist!"
Because they don't. They have a state based on nationality, the exact same way you have. To put it in terms you'd understand, it's as if USA was called White Land, and your nationality was called "Whites", and all the African Americans would be called "Black Whites". Kinda stupid, ain't it? Well, Israel literally has Muslim Jews...

One, two, three, four, I declare a nuclear thumb war! 👍
