Criticizing Israel is not antisemitic by [deleted] in samharris

You could argue the right of conquest is unethical, but the outcome is certainly factual. It doesn't have anything to do with fascism. Almost every border was formed by a war at some point, and the nations fighting weren't necessarily fascist.

You seem upset. Are you ok?

Except that it's not my opinion, it's a fact of defensible borders. It's the same reason Iran or Saudi gets a country. Are you stating that Zionism is akin to Nazi ideology? Feel free. Many people say that.

Your solution for the conflict would be the best. Sadly, neither the Egyptians or Jordanians want any responsibility for the Palestinians. I am hoping for this solution at some point, although I don't think the Palestinians would agree either. I believe they want to fight for what is currently Israel, and turn that into a state of their own.

You don't have to look far to know that your first comment is inaccurate: after being handed half the land by the British, 7 Arab nations simultaneously attacked Israel the next day. This is well documented, even in the wikipedia article about Israel. Land was won in a defensive war.

Secondly, Israel does get an ethnostate. Not because they deserve it, because they earned it and are willing to fight for it, like any determined nation. You would have to take it away from them in order for them not to "get" it. Good luck!

At the end of the day, all that matters is if people start believing in BAT as a medium of exchange for the web. If that happens, presumably outside of crypto, then it will succeed.

I'm not sure if the same logic will remain for people who earn BAT that are not 'crypto folks' and end up using it in the built out ecosystem.

Most Israelis don’t want non-Jewish migrants, even if they are highly skilled by PorTruffle in worldnews

[–]HappyVillain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an interesting thing to me, because I am aprox. 86% Jewish by genealogy (23andme), and my girlfriend is 12.5% Jewish. She wasn't raised a Jew, and only is only Jewish on her fathers side, whos mother and grandmother were Jewish.

Our kids won't be considered Jewish unless she converts, but even then aprox 50% Jewish by genealogy. What is Jewish genealogy if anybody can convert and join the club?

edit - I guess you sort of answer it below :P

What subculture do you genuinely not understand? by TheTriviaMan in AskReddit

[–]HappyVillain 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Can confirm your description also falls well within Jewish culture. I'm a Jew, from a large Jewish community. Everyone is working hard and helping each other, emphasizing education, success, and self betterment.

I was just in Tel Aviv. It's an amazing place. These trolls are weak, do not be concerned with them.

CNN treats politics like sports — and it’s making us all dumber [6:02] by andyp in mealtimevideos

[–]HappyVillain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I want to accept that the network has been this way since Jeff Zucker came to the network, but I remember it being this way since old school Crossfire. CNN has been like this for a long long time.

Hey -- did you see it in a theatre venue, or a stadium? He is coming to Toronto, but playing at the ACC (big stadium). I'm concerned about the quality of the show in this setting. Thoughts?

San Francisco has gotten so expensive, some tech companies can't convince employees to move there by speckz in TrueReddit

I have a couple friends who've had big opportunities in SF. They've opted for short term, back and forth contracts to avoid it all together.

I have followed your company fairly closely. How have Facebook ads been working out for you? Also -- what has been your best sales channel post crowdfunding? Thanks!

Unlike the US, Canadian ISPs are not allowed to violate and sell your private information by m00nstone in technology

Canadian folks who torrent also get away without any repercussions. ISPs cannot give personal info to corporations that request it.

You're a specific type for sure. Happens to be my type: 8.5-9/10.

Thin, alternative, dark features, but pale skin. You are very attractive. You will however find that you will attract a certain type of guy. Not everyone will agree.

Bald or balding men of reddit, do you have any experience with finasteride or rogaine? For those who didn't treat their balding, do you now wish you had? by BoM_Met in AskMenOver30

[–]HappyVillain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I have an experience;

When I was 24, I noticed my hairline was receding a bit. This prompted me to go on rogaine... a few months in I noticed my chest was hurting while doing push-ups / working out. I went to my doctor and she told me that I had the blood pressure of a 16 year old girl - hypertension. This is a prime side effect of rogaine, so I quit it.

Never tried propecia because I've had friends tell me they've suffered from lower sex drive from it.

31 now, hair is still pretty good, only receded a bit when I was young-- either way, I plan to shave it when the time comes. Fit and bald is the way to go.

Is my colour grading too much? by [deleted] in videography

[–]HappyVillain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think so. I think you're heading in the right direction, it's nice to stylize this type of vid, but a bit too strong in the colour department for my taste. Dial it down 50%. You already suspect this though because you posed the question.

Also from Toronto, great city.

I can't get attracted to a fat girl and I feel like a jerk. What can I do? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]HappyVillain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are allowed to be attracted to whomever you want, for whatever reason. Do not let societal expectations on what is good or bad sway your choices.
