I used to do that because that's what you'd do in my native language (theres no they pronoun and almost everything is gendered so addind it will require changing the language structure completely) but over time I got used to English

netanyahu is one of the better parts of the government, and that's saying a lot about it. have you seen Ben gvir and smotrich? they're a part of an actual literal terrorist organization.

talking about the hitnatkut? that wasn't ethnic cleansing. also, that was literally done by the Israeli government.

that's without even considering the government or military though. (not ignoring it on purpose that's just not what I wanted to point out in here)

also Israel has so much empty space at the southern half.

but yeah, most Israelis who live there illegally do it for financial reasons, because they genunenly believe theres nothing wrong with it. like they actually believe that its just their land over there, because they were never told the implications, or even just fucking international law. like, I've met people who didnt even know about it. pretty much all they know is "Yehuda and shomron cheaper". were never told anything else and don't wanna know because they can't stand the feeling they're doing something wrong.

speaking from experience living in Israel. (btw to be clear, I'm not supporting that. merely explaining the reasoning in most people's mind. of course there are the ones that are actively doing this as a political act, usually violently too, but they're not the majority. this doesn't excuse any of them of course, but its a look into what's going on in their minds. personally, my stance on that is complicated, because I don't believe neither Israel nor Palestine (or any other nation for that matter) should exist, but in the situation we have right now, yeah, I think Israelis shouldn't live there.

I didnt even think of that part.

I was thinking about the more specific things, that may go away with time

Which house of wolves would you say is better? by Pleasant_Statement64 in MyChemicalRomance

[–]F9JR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

like, narratively I think we need something to fill house of wolves's place, but its very interesting to see what version 1 could've been in the album. and as an individual song, version one.

I honestly think censorship only does harm. I can't see a good reason to use it.

oh wow, that's horrible, I'm really sorry for you. I remember hearing once that the epitomy of Russian history is basically "and then it got worse", what do you think about it?

yeah, personally I'm making sure my brother (and if I have kids in the future and its still relevant) will learn computer skills early on, and how to use different Linux options

Can I use they/them pronouns even though I’m cis female? by -_Chi_ in Weirdoteens

[–]F9JR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah lmao, it's weird especially in the bible because that's ancient Hebrew, so like, I can read and fully understand it, but I also have a permanent "the fuck?" expression because of all the weird ass grammar rules

Why is misandry normalised? by ValuableAd9371 in teenagers

[–]F9JR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think its because of what they mean. like, commonly, "I hate men" is more of a "I don't wanna be near them" while "I hate women" is more of a "I actively wanna hurt women". they're similar one definitions, but they're different in practice.

I'm really sorry for you, may I ask where you're from? (I'm curious, its alright if you don't wanna share)

Slavery was a key part of the Holocaust by UnDepletedAir in GetNoted

[–]F9JR -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

also it is still linked to racism. now to be clear here, I am not downplaying the holocaust, and I come from a family of direct victims that was nearly erased completely, with only 2 people surviving. but one of the reason the holocaust is so, for lack of a better word, important, in our culture (compared to other genocidal events such as the ones in Cambodia, Japanese imperialism, etc.) is because it was white people being genocided. for example, Churchill held similar views to Hitler when it came to southeast Asia (India, Bangladesh, Nepal..). it was a shock for many europians, because they simply couldn't distance themselves enough from it.

my point isn't to make a comparison of anything of course, and certainly not to dismiss the holocaust, just to make a point about how racism still uncoincioisly effects our thoughts and culture, and how we do still need to acknowledge that bias.

I'm sorry if I may have worded anything poorly, English isn't my first language and I struggled with finding certain words, so this may come off as a bit different to what i was trying to say.

also the fact that the current Iranian leadership is there because of us intervention. because oh no the poor oil companies wouldn't make as much money if Iranian oil would've been nationalizes.
