Why would someone vote for a sociopath with no shame if they saw that from their browser history?

And yet, long before Israel started this genocide, I have been told that about every news story about antisemitism no matter what has happened.

Even after Tree of Life, which you brought up, I was told that the news was talking too much about that when Palestinians were suffering as if you couldn’t talk about both.

And ugly as fuck. And probably made for pennies in China.

No wonder no one was buying it.

The article is paywalled, but I have to ask… you know that Twilight Zone: The Movie segment where the bigoted guy is suddenly a Jew in Nazi Germany? Are we sure that didn’t happen with Kanye except he never learned his lesson?

Not as good. Clearly he should be marketing a line of canned and frozen vegetables.

When Bannon reported to a federal prison in Connecticut on Monday to serve a four-month sentence for contempt of Congress, it brought an end, at least for now, to his tenure as the daily host of one of the most influential programs on the political right.

There’s video, right? Please someone tell me there’s video. I need a pick-me-up after SCOTUS.

So in some cases it is less worth talking about: when it’s disingenuous and the impact is to support the genocide.

That is not what the person I am talking to is saying. They aren’t saying it is a some cases issue. They are saying it shouldn’t be discussed at all and there reasons are that other people get treated worse than Jews are treated and that Palestinians are the victims of genocide. Neither of those are a reason not to discuss actual bigotry that happens against Jews and all other minority groups.

Suggesting any form of bigotry can just be ignored because something more important is going on in another place is ludicrous- unless you mean to suggest that the reason it can be ignored is that the people who are the subject of that bigotry deserve it because they are responsible for that more important thing. I assume you don’t think that. I can’t say the same for the person I was replying to.

Ah, high school bigotry.

I knew a kid in high school who came up to me almost every single day and told me with a big smile that I was going to hell because my people killed Jesus.

Then one day, he came up to me and looked a little sad and said, “we got a new pastor at my church. He says Jews are the chosen people and you’re going to heaven.”

I didn’t think it was worth ever telling him I didn’t believe either place existed.

And while we’re on school, my daughter’s right wing fuck of a sixth grade teacher just started to my daughter about Jews and Judaism unprompted one day. My daughter is half-Jewish, doesn’t ever talk about it, and she’s an atheist. She was really confused how she knew. I know exactly how she “knew.” She took one look at me, saw the nose and the hair, and made a lucky assumption. I might as well have come in with a yarmulke and prayer shawl.

And although I cannot prove it, I suspect that’s why she started getting singled out for little things here and there that other kids weren’t singled out on at all. I had definitely been in that position with my own teachers, so maybe I was being too sensitive on that part, but it felt like it.

The same thing I’m missing- where that sentence appears in the article even though it’s in the preview.

Dude, you’re regurgitating shit from an AI as if it’s true. You have no room to criticize anyone’s so-called talking points.

Ah, the “we didn’t get a rainbow and a pony” defense.

That would be nice but republicans are acting the complete opposite of how our founding fathers wanted the nation to go.

Oh I don’t know, I wouldn’t put it past them to bring back slavery, take away votes from women and legalize marital rape.

It’s not my job to prove what you say is true and it’s not my fault that you rely on an inherently flawed and untrustworthy source.

Do better.

“And some, I assume, are good people.”

Imagine if we just granted people asylum like in the poem on that statue in New York City people seem to think is important to America?

There was an article about that (and a lot more about Tesla) in The Nation. It had my blood boiling.

I’d read that article, but they apparently want to hoover up my data by making me make an account with my email address to sign in and read it.

Another reason not to trust The Intercept apparently.

This is one of the few reasons I’m not 100% terrified of Republicans taking over this country. They all hate each other.

Very true, but what I’m saying it’s a chain where it goes from ‘diverse employees are bad’ to ‘white employees in front, black employees in the stockroom’ to ‘white customers get to use the front door, black customers go to the loading dock’ to ‘white customers only.’ And that is the end goal.

And that other 10-20%? Also committing genocide?

This is the first one I’ve seen. I wonder how that works?
