More evidence, as if any were needed, that people have lost their goddamned minds.

“Oh sure they brutally murdered those women. But did they abuse them? We demand to know!“

Never mind this was one of the most thoroughly documented atrocities of all time.

I’m old enough to remember when these Hamas cockroaches sent a 22-y-o kid to blow himself up at a party primarily attended by teenaged Russian Jewish émigrés. (2001) Is there no degradation, no foul act, to which one could not imagine them stooping?

But credulous American academics want to wash the blood off of their hands. has made these people insane. Or the other way around; can’t say for sure.

I mean, all she wanted to do was erase the community, and eliminate the displays in the store she was recently hired at. Just think of the children! Why didn't the store just acquiesce to her irrational and discriminatory demands? Don't they know she's a Christian?

@jeffowski Its a funny thing, but democracy without appropriate controls and protection for the out groups, almost always leads to tyranny. Appears thats what Israel now has.
Side note: appears that upwards of 40% of the hostages have already died per Mossad estimates. However, the exact percent is hard to tie down. Likely most were killed by Israeli attacks.
Edited because I misread a number and assumed 50%

South Dakota has apologized and will pay $300,000 under a settlement with a transgender advocacy group that sued Gov. and her health secretary last year after the state terminated a contract with it.

Another great podcast. I don't agree with all of the opinion, but these are generally well researched and argued. In this episode, the Case of Harry Potter and the Grate Trans Hate.

Worth a listen even if you disagree.

I’m so sick of explaining to people why they can’t Nazi whisper.

Nazis being Nazis is a choice driven entirely by emotions and the wrong actions they take when feeling them.

You absolutely cannot talk those emotions away with logical arguments about their politics.

You have to create different emotions in them, for example by shunning them or punching them.

herop,

@thomasfuchs not particularly certain. I reckon, their feel undervalued and fear the others, like those with different pigmentation than them.
I wish, in case of verbal attack, those threatened could just smile and say: I feel sad for you, you need not fear me and turn away.
