Lol, it got 8 nominations, including best picture. People have lost their minds. Robbie was better than Ferrara, but neither were exceptional. Media literacy is at an all time low in America. This is why we need the humanities in education.

Israel isn’t “the jews.” It’s one state among many. There are millions of jews all around the world who don’t support Israel. The idea that all jews are inherently loyal or tied to each other, rather than the actual communities they live in, is one of the oldest antisemitic charges in existence: https://www.worldjewishcongress.org/en/news/defining-antisemitism-dual-loyalty I don’t hate all jews. I don’t even hate Israeli jews, just like I don’t hate Gazans, Saudi Arabians, Russians, Chinese, or…Americans. I think those governments are doing things that are wrong and should be stopped.

Conflating the government of Israel with "the jews" is antisemitic. "Dual loyalty" is one of the oldest antisemitic tropes there is.

this definitely isn’t about the land…it’s all about rooting out hamas (whatever that means).

in 10 years you’ll pretend you were always against this. just like all the people who pretend they supported MLK and Mandela.

yeah the only way you can be upset by 25,000 dead civilians is if you’re an antisemite

Believing prior to 10/7 was “peacetime” demonstrates your ignorance perfectly. It may have been peaceful for Israeli civilians, but not for Palestinians under occupation. 2023 was the deadliest year on record for children in the West Bank *prior to 10/7* Palestine hasn’t been in peacetime for 70 years.

murdering people who are clearly non-combatants when you think the camera is off is a straight up war crime. “war sucks” is a cop out. that wasn’t your attitude when israeli civilians were killed in hamas’ military attack, and rightfully so. if israel wants to behave this way, they should do it without our tax dollars and support.

this kind of thing has been happening every day

2020 and 2021 Michael Kemerer - lost final match of both years to Hall and Starocci. He beat both during those seasons. 2023 Spencer Lee - we take it for granted, but he was teching and pinning AA's all year until the upset. I doubt anybody mentioned has a similar season besides DT.

Setting aside the political reasons they don't want to take in millions of Palestinian refugees or Hamas operating from within its borders, you know those two countries fought a war right? You expect a country to have a non-militarized border with a country that invaded them?

why don't you apply this logic to climate scientists who could make way more money from oil companies denying it than at their academic research jobs?

Great recent example in Men's basketball where NDSU beat a DII school 108-14.

OP is 100% right but only because he lost to Reagan who promptly did all of the actual destruction.

what are you talking about lol

Yeah this is pretty run of the mill sports social media comment section stuff. It sucks that there are people like that, but I don't think wrestling is a special case, nor do I know of a solution other than to shame them. Also, not sure what happened before this clip, but that sequence is 100% Vito and good for Bailey standing up for himself.

i salute hunter for his commitment to stimulating a very important sector in our economy.

Man, Ventresca is really struggling. Is Cooper Flynn available for them this year. Have to think he's better than this. Anybody know if this is an injury or cut issue?

can you seriously not understand how stupid the quote in the tweet is? take a glass of water that’s 97% full (this is Earth’s natural emissions pre-industrial revolution). then pour another 3% in so that the glass is filled to the brim and starting to spill over (this is the added human emissions post industrial revolution). the 97% DOES impact climate change. it’s the increased human emissions on top of this baseline normal emissions that is slowly raising average temps.

that would require an election. the last one was in 2006. the majority of palestinians were either not born or toddlers. hamas won with 44% of the vote in a huge upset. following the 2006 election there was a break and fighting between Hamas and Fatah. Hamas took total control of the Gaza government and have not held elections since.

as we learn more about 10/7 it’s clear what an utter failure the IDF was in defense of its citizens. Not only were they unprepared, but they likely killed many of their own people. this is a consequence of concentrating your military in the west bank as an occupying police force. they totally underestimated hamas and their civilians paid dearly.

at the absolute BEST, most generous interpretation, he is saying he doesn’t sympathize for victims of antisemitism because some jews push ideas he disagrees with. and then elon endorses that position. i think that’s a gross thing to say. you hyperfocus on one part of the statement to ignore the rest that contains the context to make sense of the whole thing. people in the israel thread charge me with saying things i don’t say. yes, that’s wrong and i commend you for reading generously. but in this case you’re ignoring things this guys actually did say.

No, you are doing a ton of work to read in a more generous interpretation of what he actually said. There is a difference between saying: "some Jews" believe these things that some white people might interpret as anti-white (because some members of every ethnic group believe those things) and "Jewish communities push anti-white hate and therefore I don't care if Jews face anti-semitism from "hordes of minorities." He finishes with "You want truth said to your face, there it is" in response to someone saying "If you believe Hitler was right, say it to my face."
