  • Unironically “but the other choice is worse!”. The democrats have been doing literally the same shit that republicans did (police funding, title 42, Roe v Wade, willow project, rail strike blocking, sinophobia, etc). And even the little good they’ve done, like the student loan freeze and forgiveness, infrastructure bill, build back better/inflation reduction act, are not really their campaign focus. So we’re just doing the 2020 election 2: electric boogaloo.


  • I can only comment on the shitty mic part. There’s a lot that can be done with software processing - leveling volume, cutting static and background noise, adjusting the sound of your voice. I recommend VSTHost with reaper plugins. The two really useful ones are:

    reagate - noise gate. It cuts audio below a certain threshold. Great for random noises in the back, mouth sounds, etc. Here is a good explainer on how to use it.

    reaeq - equalizer. You can tune out ambient sounds, level your voice frequencies, and compensate for all the weird things that cheap mics do. There’s a bunch of youtube videos on how to set up a good baseline for voice recording, and from there you can adjust by feel.











  • We look and live like other white people - we deserve to bomb and kill without public outcry like white people.

    That’s not even true, which only makes it worse. 45% of the Israeli Jews are Mizrahi (of Middle Eastern/African origin) and 32% are the originally European Ashkenazi. Half of the Jewish population looks the same as Arabs. That’s why the West Bank has to have different colored license plates, different forms of IDs and permits that are checked at the checkpoints on every step. Because otherwise the occupying military literally wouldn’t be able to distinguish who to protect and who to oppress.




  • The feelings you described are pretty much a textbook definition of depression. I would strongly suggest seeing a psychiatrist and basically showing them this post. Not only because there are many options of effective medication that exist today, but also because depression is often comorbid with other mental conditions.

    The longer you exist in this state, the harder it becomes to come out of it on your own. Mental health professionals exist specifically to help and guide you through it.
