    There are a lot of non-despotic regimes that exist now because of rebellions against their former despots.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_revolutions_and_rebellions

    It’s a long fucking list. It’s going to keep getting longer too,

    Just because it can be done, doesn’t mean it happens immediately. The people have to want it, and I honestly don’t think either the Palestinians or the Israelis want to change the situation right now, they’re quite content to try to annihilate each other.

    If you ask the average person there, of course they’ll say the other side shouldn’t be hurting them, but they also aren’t asking their own side to stop fighting.
