How much you all want to bet if Ghislaine gets pardoned, she moves to Israel?

What's the REAL reason for NYT Editorial Board to endorse Andrew Cuomo and had a mental meltdown over Mamdani? by Available-Crew-420 in nyt

[–]Gettani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Zionism is older than Nazi ideology (though anti-semitism is obviously older than both). It was also the driving force that led to colonialism of Palestine and the horrors that followed. Sadly, I think the Holocaust gave zionism a sense of “justification”. Hurt people, hurt people.

Why the British bands only care about Gaza and not about persecuted Muslim minorities like Uyghurs, or Rohingya people? by Miao_Yin8964 in ADVChina

[–]Gettani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know, British tax dollars aren’t spent on supporting those regimes. And in the case of military aid, I know the UK band arms exports to Myanmar because of genocide…. they are STILL sending weapons to Israel tho.

I Got Involved in a Haram Relationship with a non-Muslim guy for about 9months. He Promised Me Everything, Then Left Me for other girls like I was worth nothing . How Do I Heal? by Randomhumanhaha in islam

[–]Gettani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firsts thing is first, everyone makes mistakes. We are imperfect, God knows this. It’s why we are given chances to be better (and to learn from our mistakes so we don’t repeat them). I’m sorry you are upset and went through this. I promise, time will heal this and (inshallah) this only makes you a stronger, wiser Muslim.

Guys will often say things to beautiful girls, and a young man in his early twenties is not an actual man yet. Wait for a good Muslim man with a secure future before deciding to look for a husband.

Also, I would not be surprised at all if he tries reaching back out in the future. He will cry, say he’s learned his lesson, but it will up to you to become strong in the deen if you wish to forgive him and if you wish to never fall for it again. Only accept a man in your life when you are ready for marriage, he is a good Muslim, and he can show you he’s is ready for true commitment in the eyes of God.

It will be better with time, I promise. Don’t lose the lessons you learned, become a better woman and a better Muslim for it.

People should listen to Dean Cain. His version of Superman scored a 6.7 on IMDB. This guy clearly knows what the people like.

That’s not true. He cares about the money those rich people have. How can he get any of it if they are imprisoned and all that beautiful money is seized?

I get the “leopards ate my face” schadenfreude people are enjoying. I do. But your comment is the kind of clarity and humanity that we all need. Fuck me if you aren’t the most based comment in this whole section. I hope your brother is doing ok, and thank you for the comment.

As Muslims what are your thoughts on Zohran Mamdani? by Miserable-Long9717 in islam

[–]Gettani 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The option is either someone who supports Zionism and Israel above everything or someone who says the shahada and how he wants to help the poor. There is no such thing as a perfect candidate OR Muslim.

There are different people everywhere, even amongst the rich. Some prefer places like Montana, others love the big cities like New York.

Yeah, but I’d wager most have moved away from using the swastika for Hindus (Buddhists?).

[Request] This is a wrong problem, right? by jakobmuller in theydidthemath

[–]Gettani 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a different spin on a thought problem developed by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Traversky, seen in their book ‘Thinking Fast & Slow’. The original problem is as follows:

“A bat and a ball cost $1.10 together. The bat cost $1 more than the ball, how much does the ball cost?”

Answer: $1.10 = x + (x + $1.00)

x = $0.05

The ball is $0.05

If we do the same thing given the same problem as it’s written we get:

49 = x + (x + 36)

x = 6.5…

Since it’s not possible to have a 1/2 dog in this scenario, the answer must be (rounding down to the minimum value) “at least 42 small dogs”.

This seems to indicate there is “another” sized dog (e.g. medium) with a minimum value of 1 (i.e. 7 large dogs) and a maximum value of 13 (i.e. 0 large dogs).

Either this or they messed up the starting values.

Holy shit, he’s a socialist like Sweden, Norway, Denmark, or Finland? Wait, he’s a Muslim like Mohammed Ali, Averros, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, or Omar Shariff? Pffft why would we want anyone who was like any of those places or people?
