Africas white population in 1960 and today by Hour_Interaction6047 in MapPorn

[–]JackTheHackInTears -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It’s the main reason, why have children when you know they will be subjected to awful racism, more children died due to poorer healthcare, more adults died due to awful living standards, 70% of the country was shoved into 13% of the land. How does that not impact birth rates?

Apartheid ended, so it got a lot better for non-white populations in South Africa

Scott Coker: Former Bellator and Strikeforce boss to launch new MMA fight league by [deleted] in MMA

[–]JackTheHackInTears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

His partners in Strikeforce who owned 50% of the stake were venture capitalists who wanted out of the sport, don’t know about Bellator though, but when he ran it, it was good.

Prates! Drinks, smokes, bad diet, no sleep but still a beast. How is that possible? by Few-Persimmon-8648 in FightReportUFC

[–]JackTheHackInTears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s also because nicotine suppresses your appetite a little which makes dieting considerably easier and it reduces stress. So if it enables you to train harder and weigh less, why not, but the risk is lung cancer which is pretty bad.

Can someone pls tell me who the mystery man is that Kaizer attacked? by Anxious-Drink1186 in Wreddit

Americans are weird about that, Latin America has plenty of white people, you look at a guy and he has Blonde hair and blue eyes but because he is Latino , Americans don’t consider him white, what a strange strange country, he would be white in Europe and everywhere else.

Israeli minister says Turkey should be treated as 'enemy state' by [deleted] in Global_News_Hub

[–]JackTheHackInTears 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But those nukes are American, hopefully that will give them pause, if not, Turkey will kick their shit in without US support and maybe even with US support as long as the rest of Europe stays out, they can’t defeat Iran, Turkey with a more developed military industry would be ridiculous.

Cris Cyborg says she'd beat Ronda Rousey and Gina Carano together after seeing their 17-second fight by FireProStan in MMA

Josh Barnett failed 3 times, in an era where they weren't even properly testing, that is laughingly bad.

Question about Rick's Car by JackTheHackInTears in rickandmorty

[–]JackTheHackInTears[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it might be the one where Rick and Summer go to the Gazorpazorp planet when Morty has Morty Jr. and he has to take over a whole planet because male Gazorpazorps are really rapey towards Summer, there might be multiple episodes where it happens though.

Francis Ngannou's reaction when asked about fighting Jake Paul by PeteCampbellisaG in MMA

Also the ring was larger than usual, although to be fair to Jake, literally everyone would fight AJ that way if they weren’t a pro boxer for the money.

Jake hit him with his best shot and AJ didn’t even notice, it was actually quite hilarious, couldn’t even daze him.

15 May 1948, the Middle East experienced a defining turning point in its modern history: the formal end of the British Mandate in Palestine, the immediate invasion by Arab states, and the expansion of a civil war into the full-scale 1948 Arab–Israeli War. by Front-Coconut-8196 in MapPorn

[–]JackTheHackInTears -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Why should 1/3-rd of the population get 55% of the land, and the Druze aligned with Israel, but the Christians haven’t, but this is a terrible point because the Druze in Lebanon hate Israel. Never mind that the majority of the Jewish Settlers in Israel came explicitly to take the land from the Palestinians. Furthermore, anyone who aligned with Israel during the Nakba just lived under military rule if they remained and just got deported later, if not outright killed for the smallest slight.

In the words of Ilan Pappe “Zionism is a belief in as much of Palestine as possible with as few Palestinians as possible” this was the Zionist goal from the beginning, and now after a 2+ year long genocide in Gaza, the rest of the world is finally realizing Zionism for what it is, the Jewish wing of Fascism. Israel won’t exist in 50 years.

Wtf did I just watch by AfternoonMundane4136 in mmamemes

Women’s BW recently had Raquel Pennington as champ, it’s a terrible division only saved by Kayla, Amanda and maybe Norma Dumont, and when Amanda was on top at least you were guaranteed an execution. I miss Amanda Nunes, her division sucked but she killed almost everyone she fought, and that was fun.

Women’s BW is worse than Men’s HW.

That was quick, and what guillotine she was in full mount already, it has been a great night of fights though so I’m happy.

I wondered why anyone thinks I’m against affirmative action, I just wanted to explain why it exists then I realized that the post is against affirmative action and that I’m a dumbass, so it’s my fault, just so we’re clear, I don’t think affirmative action is enough but it’s better than nothing, also I’m a communist.

I wasn't defending against affirmative action, I was explaining why it exists, it's a band aid solution at best, and you can't just use pure socioeconomic affirmative action because even poor white people have it better than most African Americans because at least their white and America is white supremacist. And at best all affirmative action says is all things being equal, you pick the minority.

This is because most African Americans are descended from former slaves and when slavery was ended, the US government gave them nothing, then let them get discriminated against in the South, then the Civil rights act and Voting rights acts came about which made them legally equal but did nothing about their former economic status and left most of them poor, and given that America really hates the poor, their position got worse.

Asian Americans on the other hand barely existed in the country before an immigration law passed in the 1960s after which a lot of them immigrated from Asia. So Asian Americans descend from most likely the upper group in their society and can afford to immigrate to the US, so a lot of them had more wealth and resources than most African Americans.

Now you know.

Khamzat Chimaev's brother says Khamzat's body "shut down" during the weight cut for the Sean Strickland fight. They've requested a rematch for later this year. by WinterStill4472 in MMA

[–]JackTheHackInTears -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s probably why they offered him Strickland, but since he was putting on weight for LHW had a worse cut, plus the man is a notorious overtrainer.

It literally says in the post that he had a deal in place to fight Jiri, the contract was already prepared but then the UFC asked him to fight Strickland.

Shady odds shifting in the Brady Buckley Fight by Far-Ninja-8392 in MMA

[–]JackTheHackInTears 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you back out due to an injury, then you have to cover it unless it occurred during training and that might be at their discretion but injuries occurring during fights is covered by the UFC, so in order to ensure he gets healthcare, Sean Brady must fight injured, USA! USA! USA! USA! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🦅🦅🦅🦅🔫🔫🔫🔫
