I'm still awed by how alright Türkiye has done all things considered. I mean their predecessor state lost ww1 and then they decided they weren't going to lose and then didn't. It's like if France won at Waterloo and then everyone left them to it.

    The molecules in my body aren't the ones I'm born with and hopefully won't be the ones I die with. Which ones are my molecules? Is it transitory so the only molecules that are me are the ones in my body right this very moment, in that case don't I cease being in the instant both before and after the present?

    What makes me me? And what makes that me recognisable? Does an image count? Or a description? Does it have to be the specific arrangement of molecules that exist only in the present mentioned earlier?

    Sure you can't find attila or Michelangelo but does that mean they don't exist? You've mentioned their names, they're in that sense recognisable.

    My guess is they're playing politics and will use it during the next election cycle as a tool against one nation. Alternatively we could stop playing this petty speculative politics game, vote in the greens and get shit done.

    I hear about them in basically every corner of the anglo-sphere except the US. The ones in the UK are in the news all the time and here in Melbourne I have a crowd of 100's march past my apartment every other month. Anybody in the US have experience with them? I assume they have a relatively small Palestinian population due to their overt Israeli support, is that true?
