Just install an OS that allows per-app microphone permissions. I'm running LineageOS and I can tell it for example to only allow Whatsapp mic access when I actively open the app. Actually according to the article, the same can be done on plain Android too.

Well that's certainly a lot more nuanced. It's not unreasonable to oppose Hamas. In the current conflict obviously the bigger "bad guy" is obviously Israel. But for there to be a stable peace in the region Bernie is absolutely right, a two state solution (however unlikely that looks now) would have been the only solution, with peace enforced by the more powerful neighbors and neither Hamas nor the current genocidal Israeli government in charge of their states. Hell in a functioning world, the whole of Israel would be disarmed and become a UN protectorate or something.

Need more context here. Bernie speaks regularly against Israel, usually to huge cheers from the crowd. So there must be a reason for this and it's not "Bernie's trying to shut down talk about Palestine"

Soon as corporations and "investors" provide their own wealth instead of extracting it from society.

Just completely detached from reality. They just say whatever whenever right? No consequences, not a care in the world.

Sounds one of Elon Musk's gaming handles.

What happened to the thin blue line?

Well I'll say two things, first the old /r/conservative would never have allowed this open of a discussion. I don't know if these stayed up long but I remember people even going very slightly against the Fox narrative being banned.

Also this guy, completely and utterly misguided though I believe he is, at least has the courage of his convictions. He's willing to make a sacrifice for what he thinks is good for the country. I very much doubt he's right but still, that's more than most people can say.

I thought this kind of childish nonsense was done mostly by conservatives. So stupid.

edit: for the many of you that didn't understand, this is not a comment defending the confederacy. Jesus Christ. The point is we all thought "let's go Brandon" made the republicans look childish and pathetic. Well congratulations, you managed to match them.
