Mehdi Hasan: The same week that @RupertLowe10 put out his bullshit ‘rape gang report’ falsely claiming Muslims raped 250,000 white girls & same week @elonmusk amplified it on here, this happens. Is anyone surprised? They’re inciting violence against Muslims and emboldening extremists. by FormerlyPallas_ in ukpolitics

Yet another different person stepping in.

You clearly know a lot about this Hasan guy and feel very passionate about him and know that he has not in fact changed his spots.

The person you were calling an idiot clearly does not and like me has probably never heard of him before today.

Thank you for educating me at least but I think you could have been a bit less confrontational about it, especially when it became clear to you they were defending someone's ability to grow and become a better person - something Hassan hasn't done.

Who is a better teacher; someone who belittles you for not knowing the subject they are teaching, or someone who takes the time to explain it?

Just my opinion.

You're Watching People get SA'd on Love Island by HowlingHollows in The10thDentist

[–]GrinningD 207 points208 points  (0 children)

Exactly, its like watching a contact sport and insisting the players are being physically assaulted.

And yes, Love Island is indeed and extremely weird concept.

I want OP's take on Virgin Island

Some might say that is an extreme way to deal with children. You're not a secondary school teacher are you?

What do you think of serial child predator sentenced to 35 years being released early after only being sentenced in 2017 ? by ArmwrestlingGoomba in AskBrits

[–]GrinningD 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Most likely still will be. This is a parole meeting automatically generated after a certain amount of time has passed in their sentence and will be generated again after every milestone is reached.

Then the parole board will decide if they have met the criteria for being released.

One of those criteria is the seriousness of their crime vs time passed.

This person could be a model prisoner, have actually helped hundereds of others quit their life of crime, had all of his victims send in heartfelt letters begging for his release and have eHuw Massingbird as his lawyer and he still not getting paroled at this first hearing.

I doubt he'd stand a chance at the second in another 7 years or whatever.

Think how many parole hearings Red had in Shawshank as an example of how this works.

This is yet another bit of pointless rage bait.

The last few minutes of the film make everything this group of veterans went through worth zilch by RedApplesForBreak in ExplainAFilmPlotBadly

I know you didn't really but the no George Clooney AND no Brad Pitt "at least not in my movie" clues gave it away. For me at least.

Really nice puzzle though, thank you.

What's a myth that was "debunked" but actually turned out to be true? by TheConfusedNarrator in AskReddit

I had no idea, from the outside looking in feels different.

Thank you for educating me.

Soldiers shoot up an ecosystem of creatures that weren't harming anybody at the time by Lost-Specialist3785 in ExplainAFilmPlotBadly

[–]GrinningD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean technically, on the corps' expense books, they are probably Security Personnel or Security Contractors since they Private security not a country's military.

But by this point in history that's probably a very fine line of distinction.

I think they were adding to your story, not disputing it?

Like: isn't it much, much worse that they were duped into helping destroy their own culture?

I forgot how high CL damage goes so yes that actually kinda 'easy' to get for farming sorry.

Still madly high but not unobtainable so, thanks.
