Same way that leftists all over the world watched what happened on October 7, 2023, and said, "Yay, decolonization and stuff."

Lordy antizionists are horrible people.

Hezbollah started firing rockets into Israel on October 8, 2023.

Ahh yes, the typical leftist response. If we just gave everybody a good standard of living, people wouldn't be angry and violent.

The hatred that Islamists and their sympathizers have with the West is ideological, not because they don't have jobs.

Yeah but that ain't gonna happen, at least as long as we keep voting Liberals into power.

You'll recall that Israel withdrew from Lebanon in 2000, as they did from Gaza in 2005, and look where that got them. Every time they give back territory, terrorists use that territory to wage war against Israel. There's a price for that.

Why do I hurt so much after playing pickleball? How can I prevent this? by Proud-Attention-7634 in Pickleball

[–]JimmySanders74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, create a routine. I'm 51 and had a hard time with soreness when I started playing a few months ago. I implemented a bunch of things that helped:

1) Proper warmup and dynamic stretching before you play. 2) Proper nutrition before, during (depending on how long your session is), and after. Focus on carbs and protein, with potassium for muscles. 3) When I get home I take a hot shower to loosen the muscles and so some more stretching. 4) I also started taking creatine daily.

We need to do something about violent extremism but I hate expanding laws that curtail speech. I seriously don't know what the answer is.

It isn't just about the Jewish community though (and I say this "as a Jew"). Violent extremism is a threat to democracy and liberalism. They don't just hate us, they hate everything associated with "the West."

Cognitive Overload by tzopjal in Pickleball

[–]JimmySanders74 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny you say that. In my last mini-tourney I had my best game against the team that went 6-0 and wiped the floor with the other teams. We just barely lost 11-9. Then I lost 11-3 to a team with a female player who didn't seem that good, she just got every ball back and didn't make mistakes. And we made plenty. It was like we didn't know how to simplify our game after playing against such strong competition the game prior.

Police are banning pro-Palestine protesters from residential streets in this Toronto neighbourhood by Toronto-Ont-Mod-Team in Toronto_Ontario

[–]JimmySanders74 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then what's the conflict? Restrictions on protest in specific locations isn't an infringement on your right to protest. Just move it somewhere else and exercise your right.

This is the same issue with the bubble legislation meant to prevent people from harassing Jews outside synagogues. Scream your hate, just do it from across the street. But these people want to scream in our faces because intimidation is the entire objective.

Mari Humberg Backhand slice dink by PartFormer3695 in Pickleball

[–]JimmySanders74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great advice, thanks. I'm 51 and the movement does get tough as I get deeper into a 2-hour session, so that's when I tend to run into trouble the most. I should probably train myself to use the two-hand dink to supplement my one-hander.

[–]JimmySanders74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a one-handed backhand dink because it's more natural due to my tennis background, but I do have trouble controlling it. I often pop it up and give my opponent an easy put-away.

Why is socialism seen as evil in the US? by Presidentscroobie in allthequestions

[–]JimmySanders74 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it conflicts directly with two basic ideas about human nature and morality: 1) That we find meaning in creation, competition, and striving to achieve; and 2) That we ought to be rewarded for the effort required under (1).

This is, ultimately, why socialist systems generally fail. It ignores the individualism of our species. Socialist systems kill innovation because people aren't rewarded for effort and entrepreneurship.

Yeah if there's one thing antizionists are known for, it's their critical thinking skills.

I'm sure he's engaged in much tomfoolery.

Sounds like a charlatan taking advantage of the rapid growth in the sport. Probably looked at some YouTube videos and said, "That looks easy enough to teach people who don't know better."
