If they are the equivalent of pennies the maybe a few bucks is all that will be needed.
I now want to get a bunch of these and start handing them out to asshat in public areas.
Here is one I took in Barcelona right before the US bombed Iran.

1·2 days agoNothing starts on a specific date even the Superbowl, as there are months of planning leading up to it and other events impacting it as well. October 7th wouldn’t have happened if Gaza wasn’t walled off (literally) from economic expansion, which wouldn’t have happened if terrorism plots and attacks hadn’t been launched from there into israel, which goes back and fourth on and on back to Israeli independence and the Nakbah, and all the Arab Israeli wars shortly there after with the explicit reason to destroy the cou try, which wouldn’t have happened if the Holocaust and anyi Jewish sentiment, from people within the british, German and Palestine mandate territories, leading to assassinations and pogroms some supported by people such as Amin al-Husseini who explicitly supported the Holocaust, and the revocation of a two state solution from the Arab states and refusal to recognize Israel as a state. Was it a good idea to create the state of israel there is no longer a conversation that has any reason to be had for an actual solution as the cou try exists and within internationally recognized Israel the residents by and large were born there and some for generations more so than the existence of the state by centuries. A productive discussion would be one to get israel to dismantle the settlements in the west bank and to stop the killing in Gaza, not trying to wish death on a country for the actions of a political elite doing war crimes to keep their power and reducing democracy. Think of your own government and country’s history and tell me how it is different from that of Israel at a certain point, genocide ethnic cleansing, colonization, are a hallmark of almost all countries the way to stop those cou tries from doing those things is to have greater democracy within the country and greater economic and social ties to their neighbors which would be disrupted by war, encouraging those ties has been half hearted at best until somewhat recently and haven’t really included Palestine, and is I believe the main reason why there is tension, because there is only boycotting Israeli products as an economic disincentive for their actions against Palestine and the few economic incentives for the west bank and Gaza not to open hostilities with Israel are small as well, a lot by design from Hamas in Gaza and the Palestinian government on one hand and the Israeli government on the other as it would reduce their political power on their people. Prior to October 7 the west bank was in a period of raprochement (political cooling of tensions due to the courts in Israel starting to side with their claims more than the Netanyahu regime) with israel as was Saudi Arabia and this threatened Iran who used promted their proxies to try to sabotage the expansion of the Abraham accords, thus October 7, the Israeli attacks on and from Hamas Hezbollah and the Huthis, and eventually to the current war in Iran. Everything is linked you could even say that this situation probably wouldn’t have happened if the Serbian assassin Gavrilo Princip didn’t assassinate the ArchDuke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, but we aren’t fighting world war 1 today just the consequences of it and shouldn’t play the blame game when there are still problems to solve to stop the bloodshed, simplifying things to make a bad-guy and try to find a simple solution is how ethnic cleansing and genocides and ghettos are created kicking the can down the road and causing so much undue harm. It is important to know the sequence of events that led to climactic points in history.
TLDR: you can’t find a specific point that caused any specific action to happen to start the current conflict as there are inciting incidents that have inciting incidents, to solve the issue closer ties between israel and its neighbors (especially Palestine) on economic and social levels will be needed and to do that greater democracy is needed as well as intermingling their economies to make war not only an issue or human rights but an economic issue what will backfire on the government starting the war.

4·2 days agoAs well as many other groups, including Hamas if they ever get enough military power. The best solution for all is a peace plan and to get extremists out of government.

6·3 days agoBecause that will totally bring peace to the region, remember this current rount of Israeli aggression into Lebanon, the Palestine, and Iran started with the October 7th attack. Yes there are reasons why that attack happened but attacks and death do not tend to lead to peace unless mass genocide supresses the will to get revenge, and even then unless the people is completely whipped out there will be a memory and a lingering anger with those that remain. Also Israel has nukes and unless you’re a fan of Nuclear Holocausts I’d say the best option for peace was the one that was happening prior to October 7th 2023, one where political pressure from within Israel was making government funding for settler groups, and Orthodox Jews who didn’t serve in the IDF getting special treatment and funds, while embittering Arab Israelis and Palestinians. One where the Netanyahu government was do unpopular and fighting off corruption charges constantly that a war causing a rally around the flag was the only reason why that party is still in power and why they are going for broke when it comes to Iran. If you want a peaceful world the best option unfortunately is not to punish exclusively but to give exit ramps before the punishment that have a tangible benefit for those involved, this works on individuals for preventing recidivism among criminals or even first time offenses by having basic needs easily attainable (food, lodging, education, work) for the majority, and also on governments who are run by individuals, if a dictator is told they will be arrested and tried in the Haig for crimes against their people or neighboring countries and that there is a bounty on their head dead or alive and there is no exit ramp either for the dictator nor his elites then you will have a situation like what happened to Gadaffi, Hussain, Hitler, any number of Egyptian leaders, the Shah, Ceausescu, and any number of failed dictatorships, they will make the lives of their citizenry and those of their neighboring enemies worse.
It really doesn’t matter as most printer production is made in countries that want to sell to the US if not located there and I have yet to find a government who won’t use any excuse to add state espionage tools they can use and blame on others. The US initially said it was to stop counterfeit currency production, that and the constellation QR type thing that stops printers from replicating the item in question does that, but fingerprinting all printers not only identifies the machine and most likely who used it but also is a great way to force people to start cutting out news papers again if they want to be anonymous in their letters asking for ransoms.

politics @lemmy.world•Megyn Kelly list MAGA names she says ‘pushed’ Trump to go to war: ‘Those people should be held to account’
2·4 days agoNot sure about it being bipartisan but Republicans have been pushing for this war since Regan. Be it the time Regan’s admiration sunk the entire Iranian navy, to whether Bush administration wanted to put them on the same level as North Korea, to John McCain singing the bomb Iran song during his presidential bid you can see it everywhere. Democrats probably wouldn’t oppose it, as we can kind of see, but they haven’t shown much spine for any decision popular or unpopular for decades now.
Legally all printers do since the mid 90’s
There’s also trade women, and economic women for less destructive solutions.
All praise temple OS the holiest of the holy.
Why are there multiple windows logos? You don’t see Fedora 42 and 43 on the plots nor the different versions of any other distro.
The Calvinists I believe are more in that vein.
If you think it isn’t why go for a generic Jewish piece of clothing instead of putting Netanyahu’s face on his like trump on Theoden’s?
Yet again the genocide of first nations peoples/aboriginals is kind of forgotten. All crimes on a massive scale should be remembered by the international community and when one is elevated as the worst I fear that it will incentivise forgetting of the others and potential rascism clash poits.

Well there is a lot to unpack there but let’s start with that last sentence the path forward for any country should be its own to choose and overwhelmingly all countries that had communism and then left it behind haven’t wanted to get anywhere near that type of governance again, and many of them are far better off today than they were under Soviet oppression as the Soviet union was an extractive empire where their satellite countries in the eastern block had a larger population density and were by and large more educated than the average Russian, and this stayed true through the entire existence of the Soviet Union. The fact that the wealth gap on paper between the richest and poorest being as close is kind of the point as to have wealth and influence in any communist regime would not be personal wealth but the individual 's status within the regime and the perks of the job, kind of like how the President and all governors of the US, the french president, the prime minister of the UK, and most other governments give their executive leader free housing in their respective Capitals, but for communists like let’s say Ceausescu had lavish mansions built for them while their countrymen starved. For education you can see in China today or north Korea, or any other Soviet country or non democratic country without a vast amount of easily accessible mineral wealth they will educate their country and publicize it for propaganda reasons on the one hand but on the other they limit the sorts of education the average civilian has access to, in china they have a vast number of engineers and use that to great effect for their manufacturing base, while also polluting their country in a way no democratized country would permit on their soil, but china doesn’t have a lot of political science majors or those who don’t follow their groupthink, in short their people can read and have marketable skills that don’t endanger the power of the CCP, the same could be said about the Soviet union, and even there you had problems such as the belief that all life was equal and so despite oranges peing unable to grow in the Soviet union outside or climate controlled greenhouses they tried to force genetic communism to have oranges grow there and politics encroached on science leading to not much happening and a great loss of productivity. Central planning is not the best form of planning and is only good if you want to economically depress those under central planning control at best, see the current slate of dictates from the Trump whitehouse that have devastated the US economy outside of tech these last 2 years, it was a central planning style dictate without accounting for a myriad of factors or building up american production to pick up the slack instead the tariffs forced the poor to pay more while having fewer benefits and getting squeezed more and more, there are dozens of these decisions that led to major issues within the Soviet union and when it collapsed the countries under the yoke of the supreme soviet were able to better decide what they wanted their government to do, it was unstable for a bit but places like Poland and Estonia are thriving members of the EU who have no wish to follow your purity test and will continue doing their own thing so long as they are able to.







This is kind of historically wrong, since the Stuart of the cold war France changed constitutions once, and protested multiple times (they’re famous for it), they just didnt turn to communism. I’d say for full scale revolutions, regardless of what the flavor is, the people of the country need to have worstening lives and a hope of actually getting change with actions against the state.
