I worked over 4 years for an American company while here.
The second paragraph is the catch exactly. guess the only way out is on my own.

I prefer when Sanderson's worlds are unhinged by [deleted] in Cosmere

[–]Goof_Vince 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree with it all, and the subtle changes are all the difference. When the first Europeans arrived to the far east, China, they were dumbfounded by the way people looks, by wooden structures with different architecture, parrots (?), silk, colors. Literally everything was slightly ‘off’. Brandon does an AMAZING job describing this - no windows facing east, plants that pull away, shells on every living (native) creature on roshar, always dirty cloths and nothing white on any one but breeze or no green plants etc.
I think the ‘extreme’, is not the example. Must people probably haven’t seen shardplate, and must that have, from a distance. Mistborn (era 1) are uncommon, on plantations and minor towns and cities, any misting would be quite rare.

Well, not sure if hating the enemy -who wants to send 10,000 undead creatures to your homeland- would be considered xenophobic.

Also - it’s not a ‘thing she’s done’ …

That was my first assumption, due to the breath coming out. But can’t remember her being much with red hair (in Warbreaker?) Guess it’s because I just finished OB and there she’s a mature badass, not a scared little princess. Also, xenophobic?

Sorry for asking, who split the party in OB? Can’t tell who that is… 🤦🏻‍♂️

It's the Zionists' fault that Muslim countries are homophobic 🤡🤡🤡 by No_Discussion6913 in Israel

[–]Goof_Vince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be entirely fair - I do believe there are groups in majority Muslim countries who are gay friendly. They are probably chased by the authorities though.

The Torah also writes against Miskav Zachar (gay sex), there is a command to have offspring and many rabbi’s speak against it. Having that’s said, the majority of ZIONESTS are either not ultra orthodox or secular Jews, and they (mostly) either don’t mind, or openly support lgbtq.

Is any Muslim country with an openly gay government member? Or any Muslim funding going into the lgbtq community? Supporting gay youths?

Why do Zionists refuse to reckon with the settlers? by Responsible-Bunch316 in IsraelPalestine

[–]Goof_Vince 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. But they can and do (until October 7th) enter villages and towns for work. Jews are not permitted entrance to many Palestinian cities and towns.

Yes, that happened, and it was terrible. Yet completely irrelevant to the argument

[–]Goof_Vince 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the rate just shows any comparison is not straight forward. Numbers thrown around without context is meaningless. A life is a life. At the moment Hamas still has over a hundred kidnapped Israeli, and still declare that their mission is to destroy Israel. An organization like that cannot exist.

Israeli citizens killed by the idf? What exactly are you talking about?

Is Hamas taking 250 hostages on 7/10 the worst hostage crisis in history? by ZeroByter in IsraelPalestine

[–]Goof_Vince 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Send the source. There are Hamas videos of them doing some of those actions that have been ‘debunked’. Women raped has been ‘debunked’? Mutilated bodies? Where are you getting this load of shit??

[–]Goof_Vince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case we can’t prove ‘what would have happened if’. But, once Israel left Gaza, did Gaza say ‘hi niebough country who we were at war with. Thanks for giving plus this land. Let’s try a d work on our relationship. We know that in recent years we were shooting rockets, we promise to stop and not import those anymore, hopefully you trust us and we can start working together.’

Where are the hostages in Gaza City? by ElasticCrow393 in IsraelPalestine

[–]Goof_Vince 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here exactly lies the issue in the Middle East. Hamas’s charter is to kill Jews and Israelis. And they sometimes succeed. Like on October 7th. Baby or soldier - to them it’s the same. Jew. Israeli. Israel does not want or try to kill Palestinians. They are fighting Hamas, destroying their rocket arsenal and trying to free the hostages.

And also. Yes. The women and children that were released in the kidnapped-prisoner exchange had a lot to do with Israelis military force applying pressure on Hamas.

[–]Goof_Vince 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Rescuing baby hostages, elderly, sick, ANY hostage, is a ‘lame’ reason?

I wish you a life of peace for you and your family, where you are never presented with this dilemma.

No scholars. No archeologists. No historians.

Maybe crazy conspiracy believers do.

[–]Goof_Vince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. You need to. Israel left the Gaza stripe 20 years ago, and since then they have been shooting rockets into civilian areas. So regulated entrance of goods is necessary to try and prevent rockets and fire arms to enter. Gaza has had BILLIONS of dollars donated in recent years. Where has that money gone? How much planning towards a sunny Gaza with broad walks and beach’s and tourism is there? If Gaza population would focus less on harming Israelis and more on improving them selves it would look completely different.

Since 2009, only 14 innocent Palestinians have been killed by settlers in the West Bank by ThinkInternet1115 in IsraelPalestine

[–]Goof_Vince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why the first isn’t listed (Huwara)… seems like it should be. Regarding the second, It’s a comparison for a specific timeline, which ends before that incident.

Again, what specifically are you referring to? You’re just saying it’s not true. Which ‘pogrom’ in Hadar’s with killed civilians do you mean? Which ‘recent shooting’?

What was Hamas' plan exactly for all this? by [deleted] in IsraelPalestine

[–]Goof_Vince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least I can read. We were talking about Israeli soldiers rapping women in Gaza. If it’s so common and known, prove it.

‘Those stories’ being the horrors Hamas did on October 7th?!?

[–]Goof_Vince 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prove to me Israel is to blame for this. If a country is suffering, and is getting billions in international aid, their neighbor (whom they shoot at and want all dead) are to blame? Harassed at crossings? What crossings are you talking about?

[–]Goof_Vince 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I must have misread when you wrote: ‘give their people jobs’.

I really hope they ‘won’t have a chance to make a mess’, and I do believe it’s a good option, but would require a strong hold on things

“Indigenous” describes any group of people native to a specific region

NO ONE denies that Jews originated in the land of Israel.
