  • It’s a common Israeli talking point to associate any critique of their government with antisemitism.

    It’s very transparent.

    It’s the same people acting as mouthpieces that are silent when Israel actually targets hospitals or their soldiers torture babies and rape prisoners. Hard to pretend they aren’t the ones indoctrinated to hate a specific set of people.

    Your hate towards anyone that isnt subservient to Israel has turned a massively shitty theocratic regime into some kind of weird underdog worth cheering for.

    It’s like if Italy and Germany were fighting in WW2 and you dont understand why people are cheering on Italy, but even more, you actually think the Nazis are the good guys. Everyone else is simply going “they both suck but one is clearly worse than the other, because of the genocide and all”.

    Put all the quotes that you like but you are either against Zionism or pro genocide.



  • If we enter a depression, people will have less money to spend on luxuries. I just think the percentage of people buying hand made furniture is kind of low. I think most people “buy” them from friends and family doing it as a semi-hobby, or are rich, at least in my experience.

    Not trying to be overly critical, just saying it’s not easy.

    As a side note, I’ve noticed no one makes nice wooden informational kiosks with integrated touch screen even though orgs like museums would likely buy them over plastic and metal ones. Just an idea if you were looking for a niche product.


  • Anything that’s done on site or with your hand. Forget about working from home or having your own hours though, most of the benefits you are used to won’t exist and it will be arguably harder work physically depending.

    I’d pick something that can’t be automated since that’s also a risk even if it’s not directly AI. That means something to complicated for robots (not much), too big or messy, where it can’t be trusted entirely to robots (high safety like making plane parts) or most likely where robots can’t easily go (house plumbing and electricity for example).

    A lot of trades and manual work pay very well but you have to look before hand, it’s definitely not all of them. Cooking jobs for example are pretty safe but don’t ever become a cook lol.

    If you have dev experience, I’d go towards micro electronics. It’s too niche for AI to be good at it yet and has the physical part of prototyping and soldering that isn’t easily accessible by AI.
