allegedly.

what a naive, closed-minded, and belittling opinion.

here i think we mostly agree, but students already have extra protections and responsibilities above the level of common citizens. what further protections and/or responsibilities are required here?

its not a red herring, the positive argument has yet to be made on your part: on what basis should zionism be a protected class?

i feel like the genocide practiced by and supported by zionists is sufficient justification for an anti-zionist stance. it is certainly sufficient for an anti-nazi stance: can you imagine someone saying “the insertuon of someone saying ‘but genocide’ to justify pro -nazi hate only supports my point.” in that context? thats what you sound like to me. you sound like a nazi supporter dancing around their de facto support of genocide.

they havent seen fit to do that in the last 80+ years since they chartered the country on occupied territory. they have seen the deaths, looting, rapes, and so on over that time (all classified im sure youll be absolutely devastated to learn as terrorism, not that the word really means anything other than “enemy”) committed by the chosen people as it was committed unto them by the nazis in turn, folding their arms in callous disregard, and said, “the ends justify the means.”

there can be more than one terrorist at a time. i dare say three or even four might be possible.

even if the un werent overwhelmingly biased and laughably ineffective, you are appealing to authority instead of answering the relevant accusation of genocide. i will go further and say if one’s right to exist is dependent on stealing land and murdering the inhabitants on any scale, let alone the scale in practice by israel, that claim of right to exist is the merest rhetoric justifying the most blatant and obvious and atrocious crimes against nature and humanity i have seen in my lifetime.

a. pugjesus is a bit of a fuck, imho

b. community actions are the discretion of community mods. the only possible recourse if you arent satisfied with their actions (or lack of) is with the instance admins

c. instance admins are busy af, at least the good ones are. a report of racism, libelous or otherwise, is unlikely to be investigated seriously without a groundswell of support, especially with how many of these sorts of complaints are lodged in this way, and most of them frivolous

c.ii. most admins dont read these support communities, at least not actively with a view of individual resolution. its generally more like open tech support, anyone with the power of a simple user can answer. this has been my experience, at least

d. because of that reputation for frivolity, most people wont have read first before downvoting. even if they had, theyd find you are at least not providing the full quote, because pugjesus goes on to quote two paragraphs you didnt include in this post. either that or pugjesus has gone far beyond normal fuckery, which seems frankly unlikely

e. takin shit way too serious for a meme comm. your effort is wasted on memes. take it to a real community, imo

“force your opinion out of you over an hours long conversation like a normal friendly person”

time for some self reflection there, baroque

i happen to agree with you too, as would i think anyone who has spent time in an american projects or shelter system, but youve so thoroughly poisoned the argument i cant take it up here.

It’s not that they’re indifferent- not that they don’t care. It’s punishment. Anything to make their lives worse is a good thing. The prisoners “deserve” this treatment. Also, they’re slaves and have no real standing to challenge the treatment under the law (source: vibes).

math is hard

only 50 seconds, by my math

Wait, so we’re fighting homelessness by checks notes just giving people homes?! That’s cheating! They’re just gaming the statistics!

No way, there’s not a chance this is true. The man occupies one of the most prestigious seats of power in the nation. You really think we’d elect some sort of corrupt traitor to the position? The allegations are so petty- even if he were corrupt, do you really think he’d sell himself so fucking cheap? Come on. Next you’ll be telling me he’s some sort of a sex pest, too.

i cant find another example of this sort of endorsement in a brief glance at google, which is not to say it hasnt happened before.

just because it is not traditional doesnt mean it’s stupid. can you find another example of an american party switching presidential candidates at the last minute? it is as much as saying he doesnt endorse either, or that he’ll support the winner. it would be stupid if he was a normal person running a normal campaign, but hes not. hes a wannabe dictator who depends on doublespeak and confusion and lies and contradiction and insult. it works for him because the people who vote for him are stupid. it is smart to take advantage of stupidity. trump is playing both sides, so he always comes out on top.

you know what is stupid? spending any amount of time at all talking about this fucking nothing burger. the man lead a coup. he ignored a pandemic because it was politically expedient to do so at the time. his mental calculus is not the same as yours or mine, it doesnt include morality or longer term planning than the next immediate personal objective. he rapes children and you wanna complain to me (in all unimaginative ignorance) that its stupid that he endorsed two candidates for the same race.

i will give you props for actually replying instead of dropping a kneejerk hivemind disagreement downvote to fortify the opinion you came in with.

Snapping out of it was all I wanted. This is nothing, even if I agree it is idiotic. There are much more important things to be talking about.

That said, since you invited me to have the last word and because I enjoy having the last word: Contrived? Bruh. The salt and pepper was contrived, yes, as an underhand toss to get the idea of non-exclusion in without political charge. The other examples were specifically not contrived. Non-specific examples of the exact thing being examined. C’mon.

I invite you to find a definition of those which supports your position.

There’s nothing about “complete” or “total” that implies exclusivity. Even a broken clock is right twice a day, he was bound to stumble into a logically consistent position eventually.

you have my permission to criticize whomever you wish, even for bad reasons. i will allow this.

It is usual for endorsements to be exclusive but that condition is not a requirement. There are good reasons to criticize that bloated party clown. This is not one of them.
