It's self defence, Jack!
China is genociding employment opportunities for the youths, crippling their entrepreneurial spirit 😔
It's gotten to the point where my German, liberal, status quo stanning parents can no longer defend Israel. I've talked on here before about my immense frustrations with them because they just kept parroting "but Khamas" talking points, not because they're evil ghouls, but because they're naive libs who believe whatever the news says.
But while German news hasn't changed its tone at all, there's only so many times you can say "Israel massacred even more civilians but the IDF assures us they didn't do it in a genocidal way" before your audience goes "Hey, hold on, wait a minute."
They're not cheering for our brave Al-Qassam mujahideen yet and my dad is already pivoting to "it's Netanyahu's fault", but I'm just relieved that they're not defending this nazi terror state anymore. I've been feeling like I'm going insane for the past 6 months. I'm glad they're no longer pretending like this is normal.
I feel like they had a joke in there that could've worked but the delivery made it pretty much incomprehensible. Something something Jackson Hinkle something something "Nobody knows more about antisemitism than me"
I see what they were going for but apparently they couldn't find a single funny person in the entire country.
Went to uni with a guy who was both an outspoken communist and an even more outspoken zionist (only in germany )
I checked his twitter shortly after October 7th and he was doing hasbara like a good little doggy, ticking all the boxes.
Checked his twitter again last week and his tweets are now protected. Aww, were people mean to you cause you defended the fucking Nazis?
Does anyone here play starcraft 2 co-op? would be fun not to have to queue with randoms all the time
Big Joel made the argument that The Lion King is fascist, as it portrays the hyenas as a race who have to be kept out of our territory because, due to their ravenous, insatiable nature, they will inevitable turn any area into a barren wasteland were they to be let in. And the movie validates that, as once Scar takes power, the hyenas do just that. It makes it clear that there is no peaceful coexistence with the hyenas.
And then Big Joel says that nevertheless, The Lion King "objectively slaps". I forgot what his exact point was but the AoT discourse kinda reminds me of that.
He's still among us
Shower thought: I wonder if "white people don't season their food" traces back to Western exploitation in some way. White people have historically been able to afford more fresh and expensive foods that taste good with relatively little effort, while people in poorer regions have had to get innovative to make the cheap, more plain foods taste good.
Fun fact: Clefable's German name is also Pixi.
Even funner fact: Clefairy and Cleffa in German are called Piepi and Pii, respectively. Yes, those are pronounced peepee and pee.
Why are you pretending that Biden isn't currently in power and hasn't been in power for the past 4 fucking years? Why has he done jackshit about abortion as of yet, and why do you think he'll do something once reelected?
