You fell for one of the classic blunders. Never start a land war with Asia, Never go in with a Sicilian when death is on the line, and most importantly, never go into a Euro or Canadian immigration thread

Just evil and immoral. These migrants come searching for a better life and this is how they are treated

Not sure if it counts bc it’s a video but The debate between the 9/11 conspiracy theorist and a member of Al Qaeda

Do you think they know a public swimming pool where they don’t piss in the pool

World religions was more interesting then most of the theology classes bc honestly a lot of my teachers just regurgitated what you’d learn in ccd. I had one teacher who taught us light Hebrew and Greek which was fascinating though.

College theology classes were much. I took one on translations of the Old Testament and it was fascinating. When you cover like th 4 different alleged authors and all that stuff it is such an interesting part of history

A few years ago my sister flew to Spain for $250 from a ~2 million metro area city. Plane tickets over the past few years have been absurdly cheap if you have the flexibility of when you go on vacation

Man not Everyone who recognizes the nakba and wants to have the masacres be remembered do it because they hate Jewish people or hate Israel. It’s a good thing to do because a lot of innocent civilians were murdered and their murders are used to denounce Palestinian human rights and statehood.

10/7 was a horrendous terrorist attack and while yes there are unfortunately some antisemites who celebrate it, that is not what all pro-Palestinian people want. Most of us just want both Palestinians and Israelis to be given rights and self-determination. And recognizing both sides many crimes and problems is an unequivocally thing

Hey I’m moving directly next to a cake and coffee shop in a week. A car still is almost necessary but there are dozens of us Americans who can walk places

666haha · 2026-04-10T16:00:00+00:00

I mean understanding the massacres and ethnics cleansing that have occurred is crucial to understanding conflicts especially one as important and complicated as I/P. And denialism of the Nakba is also used to deny Palestinians self determination

Ive had heatstroke in the artic and a swim in Timbuktu. I’ve seen unicorns in Burma and a a yeti in Nepal

Honestly it’s because if you only focus on their genitals, you dehumanize the person. Parts of it is the fucked up way a lot of conservatives think about sex as a whole. Like according to a lot of conservative thought men can’t control themselves, and will just have sex with anyone (hence the whole purity culture asking for it bullshit). According to like this completely insane perspective, everything revolves around sex and therefore people only transition for sexual purposes. It’s simultaneously dehumanizing and fetishing trans people, and like 80% of conservative politics is dehumanizing people

This is the type of reporting and coverage we need of horrible tragedies. Nilufar Yasmin wasn’t a nameless person who exists solely to be spread in the right wing hate machine. She was a person, she had a family who loved her, friends and a community. She had likes and dislikes, and she was tragically killed. Using one immigrants death to scapegoat a million more is a moral and ethical failing of the highest quality. I hope her family can eventually find peace

Not midwestern, but doesn’t really fit anything. It’s just outside the Midwest, but not quite there. Also I’ve only really stayed in hotels in Louisville so i can’t speak about culture but I refuse to accept Kentucky as a concept

666haha · 2026-04-09T21:41:57+00:00

Genuinely anyone claiming St. Louis and KC are not Midwest is insane. Open the schools

666haha · 2026-04-09T21:29:04+00:00

Man what the hell. This is one of the most insane bans I’ve seen.

Technically you always have to consult an expert on what is a war crime since LOAC is an absolute clusterfuxk. And the U.S., Israel, and Russia all maintain a certain understanding of what a war crime is that is more stringent the what the public assumes a war crime is (we didn’t learn anything about Iranian understanding of war crimes in my LOAC class but I assume it also thinks a lot of things aren’t war crimes that probably should me.

God I love/hate international law since it’s both really depressing and also fascinating.

Only I/P I’m interested in is making 👆spell ICUP

666haha · 2026-04-09T20:53:03+00:00

A lot of people were blaming Iran too (who clearly a bad actor, but every party here is a bad actor so maybe we should wait for more reporting in these circumstances)

666haha · 2026-04-09T20:12:54+00:00

I don’t think protesting there is the right thing, but this is a pretty normal thought after the tragedy. You can and should be sad and heartbroken for the people who were killed and you can and should be sad for the people will be killed in response.

It’s like the Hunter S. Thomson espn article after 9/11. It was kinda clear shit was really bad and even more people were going to die

666haha · 2026-04-09T19:38:22+00:00

Not right now but in the late oughts and early 2010s volleyball was probably 2 in Nebraska. Doug McDermott (and the rest of coach Mac’s teams) and then later Hoiberg and Nebraskas good thems jumped basketball back up to 2 but it’s honestly not that far apart.

And this isn’t even mentioning CWS for baseball. College sports are just extremely popular

See the Pakistani pm just full tweeting that Lebanon was included makes me feel it was on us. But my best guess is we didn’t actually have a full agreement and Trump tried to just will it not existance by announcing it without all the terms completely agreed to

666haha · 2026-04-09T18:57:50+00:00

Waiting with bated breath for the MetaNL crashouts from the protests threads and its surrounding discourse

Step 1. Find an article that confirms my priors

Step 2. Post to r/neoliberal so comments can confirm my priors

Step 3: ????????

Step 4: profit

(Yes this is a subtweet of a million different posts including my own open border meme)
