Neighbors

It (Israel) doesn't have it's neighbors surrounded on all sides. They don't control the electricity or the communication of their neighbors. They don't have a cosmic entitlement to their neighbors land. They don't have control of their neighbors borders. The don't have complete dominion over their neighbors. If any of those variables were at play in regards to their neighbors, their relationship with their neighbors and their ability to male peace would radically change.

Hym "Do their neighbors have full self-determination? What does their ability to make peace with people they haven't subjugated have to do with anything going on right now? The argument is 'They make peace with their neighbors and they bend to international pressure and therefore are better than Hamas' but to what extent can the Palestinian authority negotiate peace with other countries? Can they join Nato? Ukraine can't and they tried to do it anyway. Can they sell their natural gas to Egypt? Would Israel allow them to negotiate peace? Would Israel negotiate with Hamas (obviously before oct 7th)? No? How can you judge the ability of captured state to negotiate peace when there is no one to with whom to negotiate except for the people who have occupied them and the people who are antagonistic toward the people who occupied them? Let's say you get Hamas out of there. What makes you think the next authority will be any less antagonistic to the zionist state? And what is their role in the Gaza strip? They need to elect a new authoritative body. One that will just shut up amd accept subjugation by Israel. And then... If their good... THEN the Jews will increase the amount of rations they're afforded? When can they start selling their natural gas to other countries? What about freedom of movement? Do they ever get that? So no. There ability to negotiate peace stems from having a level of agency the Palestinians lack and does nothing to detract from what they're doing now."

neighbwhore

A neighbor who can’t keep their legs closed; a neighbor who sleeps with other neighbors; a slutty neighbor who has sex with someone other than their spouse.

Did you see Kelly from next door at the bar last night? She was having sex with some blonde guy in the parking lot while her husband was at home with the kids. What a neighbwhore!

Neighborhood Assemblies and Neighborhood Communes

Direct, face-to-face democratic institutions where residents of a local area (a neighborhood, block, or housing complex) gather to make binding decisions on matters affecting their immediate community. A Neighborhood Assembly is the general deliberative body—the town hall for local issues. A Neighborhood Commune is the more radical form where this assembly assumes direct political and economic control, managing shared resources (gardens, tools, childcare), security, and dispute resolution, often operating on principles of consensus and mutual aid. They are laboratories of hyper-local self-governance, bypassing traditional municipal bureaucracy.

Example: After the city repeatedly fails to repair a dangerous intersection, residents of the Oak Street block form a Neighborhood Assembly. They meet monthly in a garage. They vote to install a community-funded traffic calming plan. This evolves into a Neighborhood Commune: they pool money to buy tools for a communal garden in a vacant lot, organize a rotating schedule for elderly care, and run a local security patrol. They've created a micro-polity based on direct participation, making the city government largely irrelevant for their daily lives. Neighborhood Assemblies and Neighborhood Communes.
