Here's a really simple video explaining why in a first past the post system voting for a third party is the worst thing you can do as you will only harm the larger party that you are most aligned with https://youtu.be/s7tWHJfhiyo?si=W8hd2GZCL15L6KU7

I don't know what you mean by this. MSM?

A third party in a first past the post system is a waste. You may as well not vote

Israeli is not the same as Jewish, as much as the the Israelis want to push that narrative to claim anyone who criticises their genocide is an anti-semite.

Are you confusing animtisem with being against a horrific genocide that has being going on for decades? A lot of Americans don't seem to be able to make the destination. Hamas is a shockingly disgusting terrorist group, that doesn't mean Israel isn't a shockingly disgusting terrorist state. Being anti Israel is not the same as being anti Jewish

NordVPN. I use it to access iPlayer and a couple of torrent sites my ISP blocks. It's works fine. I chose Nord due to the brilliant adverts by the Internet Historian. The Internet Historian's adverts are up there with John Green's life assurance ads. Just brilliant!

Israel has, for decades, been engaged in the systematic eradication of the people of Palestine. They have been committing genocide. It's clear their aim is the total destruction of Palestine. While more subtle than the holocaust, the ultimate aim is the same and far more likely to be successful.

The pilots I know are all working for the budget airline Ryanair (but not all with Irish contracts). I can't say anything about what a pilot earns in the US.

They describe themselves as bus drivers. Yes, it's more complex, there is a higher training level but not really skill. The biggest barrier is the cost of entry.

And being well above a national median salary hardly makes someone rich. Sure if you make 90k living in a backwater you might be better off than most people around you, but try buying a house in Dublin with a 90k salary

Do people think pilots are rich and powerful? I know a couple of pilots. They make about €90k a year and they are basically well qualified bus drivers.
