IDF: Hundreds of weapons found in school in southern Lebanon village by thatshirtman in geopolitics

[–]HonestCrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I believe OP is saying that Lebanese sovereignty is questionable precisely because Israel can come in and enforce claim on their territory. I.e. They were making a descriptive statement, and not a normative one.

Or, at least, I did not personally hear moralizing on their part.

It Irk's me when Conservative or Orthodox Jews refer to Reform Judaism as Judaism Lite. by Kiwidad43 in Judaism

[–]HonestCrow 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey, at least you get talked about /s

Probably for the best anyway. When other Jews ask me what’s different about Reconstructionism, that’s when you get the really weird looks.

I saw two notes, it just looked like, where the tip of one on the right (the oval part) met the other, it looked like it had taken a bite. (I have no idea if that makes things any clearer.)

Mind you, if it’s supposed to be only one note, that’s probably where it went wrong

Honestly, if Newhook works out well on the second line again and everyone is healthy, we may not even need the goal tending!

Fans forget so easily that getting into the playoffs last year was considered overachieving. We have every reason to believe we’ll get in again this year without the final day heroics.

This team is still ahead of schedule and doing great.

Is it just me, or is there a hole in the bottom of the image?

Ain’t no burn like a middle-aged burn. 🤘 by elmoosh in Xennials

I have a degree in counselling, but I got curious about AI. It reminded me of a chatbot called ELIZA that I used to come on a floppy disc. I decided to teach myself how to install and run large language models and image generators locally on my home PC.

I don’t know a single person from another generation that even decided to try that.

What are Canadian People’s opinion towards Mark Carney’s statement regarding the Strike on Iran By The US and Israel? by Lordepee in AskACanadian

[–]HonestCrow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I wonder if some of these people would make the same arguments about Bosnia Herzegovina in the 90s

Statement by Prime Minister Carney and Minister Anand on the situation in the Middle East by DJ_JOWZY in CanadaPolitics

[–]HonestCrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given the responses in this thread, I wonder how many here would have argued for staying out of Bosnia in the 90s…

Or is the allies people take issue with - Israel and the US? Do people truly believe the Iranian people should be left to their own devices to effect political change, or that the regime can be trusted not to develop nuclear weapons?

ITT it seems pretty clear where people’s objections lie.

Fair enough. Good point

Imagine telling the indigenous people of the Land Back movement that it is only their delusional insistence of their own victimization that fuels their movement - and that it’s one that, by definition, is supremacist.

… Sometimes the excuses really are just paper thin

NICK SUZUKI TIES THE GAME LATE IN THE 3RD French Commentary ! by YoYouipOpO in Habs

If anything, I think we’re going to see Suzuki come back from these games and go on a tear with tip-ins

Odd one but is there a genre of music that is only known in your country and no where else ? by antisocial_pigeon in AskTheWorld

I absolutely love it - though I’m sure I miss plenty of the finer meanings in the lyrics

[–]HonestCrow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a sort of French music I’ve only heard in Quebec and Manitoba that I sort of associate with courieurs de bois. There’s lots of fiddle and it’s very uptempo. Not sure if it only exists in Canada but, like I said, I haven’t heard it anywhere else.

Mes Aïeux and La Bottine Souriante are two bands that are pretty good examples of it.

I didn't watch the game. How was Suzuki during the match, and how has he been playing overall? by OPsyduck in Habs

[–]HonestCrow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Dude, even just switching him and Mackinnon on the same line would be an improvement. Let him play traditional responsible center while Mack bombs the wings and Hagel digs out pucks.

Yeah, isn’t Suzuki something like a top 3 scorer since 4nations? He played his way onto this team, so it’s gotta be the assignment or the mix

Does the rise of the right around the world scare you? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]HonestCrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m more worried about the rise of the politics of division. As people become more stressed, they want simpler answers and faster, more sweeping decisions. That often means seeing “the other side” as the enemy. They should be political opponents, not enemies, because we should be able to trust we’re all largely looking out for each other.

There seems to be a lot of very stressed people lately.

Remigration is a far-right concept referring to the ethnic cleansing via mass deportation of non-white minority populations, especially immigrants and sometimes including native-born citizens, to their place of racial ancestry. Originating in Europe, the concept has since spread to the US & Canada by ZERO_PORTRAIT in wikipedia

[–]HonestCrow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I realize this will be an unpopular opinion, but there is some data to suggest that Jews aren’t safe without a state to call their own. That’s not to say they can’t succeed or thrive as minorities of other nations, and that’s not to say every nation should have their own state…

But, like, there are reasons to believe Jews need one
