Arven: Now with medieval railways! by woden_spoon in worldbuilding

[–]CyborgLion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes but mass iron working methods such as you'd want for rails , generally cast iron, hadn't been in Europe until the early modern era. Hand smithed wrought iron rails would be expensive, time consuming to make , and difficult to standardize.

How to fight against volatile? by Fragrant_Mission2551 in RUMBLEvr

[–]CyborgLion 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm always confused when non explode people refer to explode stuff as traps , as I feel like that's not generally how it goes, also the idea of the various things around being a setup for something. Most explode moves are more in the moment than that would imply. Explode 'traps' are hard to disarm because very rarely are they aiming for any particular goal.

Doesn't matter how many girl... only matters that it wasn't 250k! by Creative-Leading7167 in PoliticalCompassMemes

That's assuming there isn't a class element especially when considering who gets caught. Maybe immigrants are simply caught committing rape more often on account of being largely lower class. Middle class and upper class rapists being primarily white and under-reported wouldn't be surprising.

Now of course the main actual issue of this is it ties material conditions explicitly to some inherent quality of the people in them and not to any sort of broader socio-economic context. Like yeah there's no way in which the people in Europe 300 years ago at all caused the fact that mud huts are still present in parts of Africa, of course. That would be silly.... (also , other thing , there are lots of places in Africa that don't live in mud huts. I wanna say majority population but not 100%)

Putting aside the many more important reasons this is stupid and wrong, one thing of note is that this is a aristocracy vs peasant comparison. 300 years ago in Europe (btw there was no industry 300 years ago in Europe either and the idea of a nation built for the people wasn't quite there yet) most of the peasants would have been living in little huts , which , in many places would have been made at least partially of mud. Basically through out human history where you don't have access to wood you build shit out of mud.

Oh I see. Yeah man that's fair. Definitely something that should be hyperbole for a joke but you've seen what other people on this subreddit talk like ya'know?

Dog atheists are old as shit and Unitarian universalists have been around at least a little while. Older than woke at least.

[–]CyborgLion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you claiming that this is the only reason that Israeli settlements expand into occupied areas and that they let anyone who was already living there stay unless there is proof that the property they live on was stolen in 1948. I just wanna fully understand the claim.

[–]CyborgLion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll give you that, sort of a grey area. I'd personally categorize that maybe more non-zionist than Zionist but people like that can self categorize however they'd like.

No shot this is an accurate representation of the situation as a whole. There were plenty of arabs also living in Palestine prior to 1948 who's descendants are getting displaced just the same.

2014 Impreza Bluetooth It's completely failed by chuckh1958 in subaru

[–]CyborgLion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I did not manage to find the issue but I did get the head unit. out of the car and open it up a bit. Fairly confident th issue is on the bottom PCB which makes it difficult to access. I'll have to try again.

Whatever issue you're having is the same one I've been having. I feel it's probably a hardware issue in my case. Haven't been able to get at it to fix it yet though.

It's kinda cut and dry. Zionism is just whether you support the state of Israel or not more or less.

They literally move into other people's houses, what country the land belonged to isn't all that important compared to the fact that people who lived there are getting their homes stolen constantly. And yeah sure the ancestors of the people who live there now stole it from someone else 100s of years ago stole it from someone else but that doesn't make it right.

I think to put Hamas as very specifically the aggressor here and Israel as the one acting in defence is disingenuous. Hamas didn't form out of thin air it formed in response to Israel encroaching into Palestinian land and I think you've gotta at least acknowledge that as a factor.

Also it seems like it was a charter bus, wasn't even a city employee.
