One thing I realize is to be careful with sarcasm/humor and especially when it uses searchable phrases that are searchable like incel or nazi here. I think they monitor certain phrases and if they don't get "the joke" they may pounce on some kind of hate speech.
Once you get permanently labeled they never explain why. :-| It is what it is. You either have to start a new account or continue with the "reply hidden intolerant" thing. All of my responses have the intolerant comment.
No I'm just going to start new accounts when this happens. I keep this one open just to occasionally look at old contacts.
Looks like the conflict is about to restart soon also, what you think?
Unfortunately yeah. Once your tagged I think you can't get rid of it and they never explain why. I am transitioning to another account.
if you say so. Glad that you think the arabs are winning, perhaps they can stop crying about being genocided if they're actually winning a war for once. Just let the conflict play out and chill a bit.
Help is on its way. After the ceasefire Israel will crush hamas and lead the palestinians to prosperity brother!
Putin might even be a better metaphor than Hitler. But people always reach for something that has shock value.
Are you being genocide or somehow winning the conflict? Get your propaganda straight. Be'ezn Ellah Israel will clear gaza of palestinian security threats after the ceasefire, Alhamdulillah.
You're the "smart guy" who supports islamic jihad. Hope this is getting you a lot of accolades and making you a lot of money.
People need to realize this just isn't a likely large group of people. Illegal immigrants can't vote. Romantic partners of undocumented immigrants who are getting deported also hasn't been tested for partisanship.
How Trump should enforce immigration laws shouldn't be the hill liberals should die on. If this is about protecting democracy that shouldn't be such a big issue.
Yeah what's funny is I can see that same image on my end. Oh well. I could start another account but I really shouldn't be wasting time on here anyway so I think I'll just continue.
The Right is becoming more interested in education. Maybe their recommendations have some basis sometimes? Schools should be teaching reading, writin and rithmetic. Anti bullying policies are fine but maybe schools actually should shy away from endorsing progressive politics on these issues.
You might have been a social democrat before 1933. After that you would have said nothing and spoken up for no one. Bc you wouldn't want the SS knocking on your door. Slight possibly you would have hidden Js in your house but not likely. And you sure wouldn't be bragging about it on twitter.
The time to stop AH was before Hindenburg appointed him chancellor. I get so tired of people comparing Trump to AH with the whole "what would you have said" comments.
cool. But Israelis need to be secure from violence, this is why the mission in gaza was moral and just.
do you have testicles?
You're full of unsurprises.
dismantling organizations that attack Israel. Yes they should be destroyed.
cool. I support dismantling palestinian jihad instead.
how interesting that you continue to respond to people who's opinion you don't care about.
A lot of people seem to really want to dismantle Israel. Cool that's your opinion. But our view is that the palestinians are just going to have to either accept peaceful coexistence or the consequences of war.
oh the events from 1920 to 2023 absolutely should be discussed. But ask yourself which side strived for peaceful coexistence.
idk. You can call it what you want but there is war and sometimes wars must be fought. Here in the USA most of us just want the Israeli people to be safe.
The hard thing for people to get is a lot of us see that as just a trivial pontification. Saying "it's genocide" is fine, put a label on whatever you want. But Israel has to maintain deterrence, a response to 10-7 was needed.
median voter theorem.
Isreal should have rejected all the hostage deals. Yes it's understandable they eventually caved. But their primary concern should be the safety of Israel's 9 million people, not the safety of a hundred.
To each his own a I guess.
Now that I've been shadow banned I guess I can have fun pouring my soul out and all with even more honestly or something.
Collateral damage is an inherent part of every military conflict.
Millions spoke out against the nazis. However they did not unite against the nazis. Ofc once the nazis controlled the military well yeah, then it was actually too late.
Thatcher also had some record lows. But when the election came near Labour ran awful candidates against her and got trounced. See voters actually do care about the policies politicians support.
Calling someone an incel is basically saying they have autism. Weird that this is still a thing.
Yup, we're going to snitch and call the police when we see antifa. Be very careful in your antifa disguise. Approach as a hologram.
In the 1968 movie Bullit, Steve McQueen plays a cop who's handsome and cool. And he drives around San Francisco and fornicates with beautiful women. Man I never thought about that as a concept. But I admit hearing Tarantino tell the story I sort of wish I could have seen it at 5 years old also.
There are actual reddit threads where they talk about why Tarantino wants to talk about ancient forgotten actors like Steve McQueen. And usually the answer is "yeah man idk. it makes sense in Quentin's mind that he wants us to know about this."
idk, respectfully this argument just seems retarded.
Snoop Dogg always sucked. Be honest. He didn't start sucking when he went maga, if anything he's finally developing a bit of a personality. Whereas Toby Keith. Morrissey, Ted Nugent and Ice Cube. They're all kind of nazis. But so talented in their respective fields.
We have a constitutional democracy and Trump won. There are no easy solutions here. Also why don't you protecting Schumer from fascism?
Agreed. It's fine for anyone to not vote, personal choice. Voting is just one way of augmenting the personal virtues but not even close to the most important.
Did the communists ever collaborate with the nazis? Think hard on this one.
because it makes you sad that there are Democrats who believe in God and you need them to win elections?
The communists in Weimar Germany literally labelled the social democrats as fascists. There is a long history of the word fascist being used as a slur for anyone who speaks out against authoritarian left-wing regimes.
He doesn't want to exterminate the Jews, he does want to throw progressives from helicopters. And he's ok with a few Jew haters being in the GOP. Whether they be Islamic or white nationalist, but they're a minority viewpoint.
John knows this is a dead horse. He's not wasting time on it. Fetterman leads the way. For a New Democratic Party.
Graph from D Shor. The public is sending a message on immigration. And sometimes even a bad message should be listened to.
Amnesty could be a good idea. If it's truly a one off with lots and lots of enforcement resources so that it doesn't just incentivize more illegal immigration. Conservatives are skeptical of the whole tradeoff. Considering that was the false promise in 1986 you can kind of understand why.
because there are lots of muslims in the world and plenty of non muslim countries believe in placating them.
Read a little bit about 1947. The palestinians didn't accept peaceful coexistence with a Jewish state and tried to throw the Jews into the sea. What you call oppression is simply the palestinians starting wars and losing them. Same in 1947 and 2023.
The palestinians have waged a jihad against Israel (and the zionists before that) for 100+ years. Israel is right to take steps to deter violence and to prevent violence. The war in gaza was moral and just, Israel should strongly consider restarting it after the hostage/prisoner exchange.
eh, it's really silly for anyone to make the case that hamas wouldn't have attacked Israel if Israel had just made it easier for hamas to import more sophisticated weaponry.
agreed it is a tiresome narrative. It assumes the palestinian cause is rational in a way that it really isn't. They want to anihilate Israel, when they realized they aren't in a place to take over the Democratic Party it caused a vote reshuffling. Cool now let's move on.
yup, Biden and Trump do agree on a couple of things. Turning the other cheek to palestinian violence doesn't work and just invites more palestinian attacks on Israel.
YIMBY policies can change the character of CA but they can't really make it affordable. That's not the end of the world! With a few important exceptions California has low homicide rates. Think of Santa Clarita, San Diego, Freemont. It has low crime bc street gangs are priced out. Many like that
For the last time: Americans aren't voting with their feet against california. Trumpers are being priced out because they can't (or are unwilling) to pay the price for the coolness to live in California. At what point can the silly YIMBY myths be put to rest.
Is racial resentment basically just racism or a lack of pro African American sentiment at this point? Not entirely clear.
Key thing people need to understand about racial resentment is that plenty of academics don't buy the idea that RR=racism. and don't like the name for that reason. For that reason it's often called racial conservatism instead.
Well tbf he might mean palestinians were promised the right of return by terrorist organizations like the PLO. Yes! True The entire palestinian movement is based on this kind of exploitation that gets a lot of people killed.
zionists tend to get that some want to annihilate the Jews, whether it's palestinians in 2024 or Germany in 1944.
gazan arabs literally voted for it also when they elected hamas. Jihad is not rational, it's a mistake to pretend that is the mindset.
Israel wants security. They have plenty of land already, they don't need the tiny triangle in gaza. But they want the palestinians to stop killing them. And something must be done.
Israel just wants to be free from palestinian violence. This is a decent fantasy even if it doesn't happen.
Don't get my hopes up man. It's just a troll. Moving the gazans to Jordan so they could actually live a normal life and stop trying to exterminate Israel would be awesome. Not going to happen though.
Hamas kills their dissidents, Israel allows free speech for people, even those with toxic anti Israel views. You're getting it.
Israel doesn't need beach front properties. They need safety. Moving the gazans to Egypt is a fantasy. It won't happen but it sure would be a great idea.
hamas was bad, israel made them pay a price for their wickedness. Biden has seen a lot in his many years. He understands that Israel can't show weakness to jihadists.
And have the palestinians killing Jews over here? No thanks. We will assist Israel and killing the jihadists over there instead.
You should read about how Israel offered them a state and then palestine responded with a 2nd intifada. Consider that the palestinians just want to kill the Israelis. Giving them free land and strategic doesn't solve the problem, Israel must take preemptive steps to protect its citizens.
This is a plan by Israel to make gazans free and prosperous. Israel actually wants palestinians to succeed. Why do so many anti zionists cheer on for the palestinians to commit more jihad? It will only lead to destruction and poverty for them to start wars they continue to lose.
fuck hamas
If you believe it was irrational for anti zionists to switch their vote from Harris to Trump maybe you can consider that actually the whole goal of trying to annihilate Israel is also irrational.
now do the mufti
the palestinians don't want a two state solution. They just want to continue murdering Israelis. If they want to be left alone a good strategy here would be to cancel the 100 year old jihad.
Israel just wants the palestinians to stop killing them. But if the palestinians continue the 100 year jihad they will pay a price.
I should be shocked if any substantial resettlement of gazans in Egypt and Jordan occurred. But for those who howl with indignation, what is your preferred plan? To just have an endless series of hamas terror attacks and Israel reprisals in gaza?
sex workers might want to decriminalize sex work. Women who worry their husbands or boyfriends will see a sexworker are less enthusiastic about the idea!
If the palestinians remain in gaza then Israel has to actively monitor them so that they don't plan terror. Resettling as many as possible is a positive development even if it doesn't scale.
Israel simply wants the palestinians to stop killing them. They are going to look at a variety of options to keep Israeli citizens safe.
Relocation isn't genocide. Relocation is probably just a fantasy, but at least donald is thinking big. The process can't simply repeat itself with another palestinian terror base.
Everyone knows if Israel just leaves permanently the process repeats itself and there will be another hamas training camp. Resettling gazans doesn't sound great but there aren't any great options.
war is hell but the native americans had access to a lot of economic development because of proximity to the colonists. It wasn't all good but it wasn't all bad either.
If you want to avoid hearing your partner snore, need to sleep by their feet.
A lot of violence in the history of mankind for sure. Bigger question is how to conceptualize the larger picture of so many events and conflicts.
Community is good. Is there any way to make promises though that aren't obviously fake? What if the true socialism could be the dreams we hold in our heart? Something more immutable than DSA platform.
Ok but the working class black and latinos people are also lumpenproles who simply want to bash gay people and feminists. The Democrats need to evolve into a Colorado party. A fun party of affluent people who enjoy doing fun things like skiing. A party that seeks stability rather than change.
Eh, that's not exactly a great example. The worst thing we did to the indigenous people was bringing so many diseases like smallpox. Had it not been for that it would be remembered as much less of a genocide than a clash of cultures with both positive and negative interactions.
Funny I haven't read any interviews with ordinary people who voted for the nazis. Would love to find some good books like that. But since the nazis never gained an outright majority that left a lot of german people an "out" to pretend this was something they never supported.
hey man, I'm with you that there's a superficial aspect to progressive advocacy for gun control. Gun control + massively amping up the police state is my preferred solution. But it won't happen anyway so this is just simply hypothetical stuff.
Is this man a conservative or a progressive?
(Disdain for human rights could be a hallmark of authoritarianism if human rights was narrowly construed, rather than "Any law I disagree with violates my human rights" etc. )
The truth is only the comment about controlling mass media and fraudulent elections are really related to authoritarian governments. The rest are simply conservatives being conservative.
If fascism just means conservatism the word isn't that meaningful. Democrats are trying to preserve a functional constitutional democracy as best they can.
It's often good to do something about a problem. But don't do something that actually makes the problem worse.
He was beholden to left-wing interests. We get it. And Fetterman is trying to move the party to the center.
The problem with a list like this is these are all tactics/principles of conservatives. Every fascist movement had plenty of people who spoke out against it, until at a certain point fascists controlled the military and it was too late. Key is uniting with non fascist conservatives to stop them.
The headline is more a boilerplate argument against having lower requirements for physical fitness so women can be cops.
Ok, then call off the wedding. He'll get over it.
Except gingers. Honorary people of color.
For me it was, on the whole an appropriate response. I look forward to reading about alternatives on how Israel should have responded will keep an open mind. But war is hell. A weak response to islamic violence invites more islamic violence. I see the war in gaza as moral and just.
