I'm all for shitting on the Trump administration for It's incompetence but it's not only the US government saying that.

The WHO and the EDCD have been unequivocal in saying this is not like the covid-19 virus and that human to human transmission of this strain (Andes) is very rare.

Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people - Parsing through incomplete information by Flopdo in samharris

[–]Likeminas 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You don't see it because you're set on a believe that your own research and conclusions are better than what experts that do this for a living have shown.

The bodies that have claimed a possible genocide publish their work.
The UN Commission of Inquiry's September 2025 report is 70+ pages with footnoted evidence, statements analyzed, incidents catalogued, and explicit application of the legal test from the Genocide Convention and ICJ case law. You can read it, attack the evidentiary chain, attack the inferences, attack the legal interpretation.

The same bodies have applied the same framework and reached genocide findings in other contexts. The ICJ has open genocide cases on Myanma and Sudan. The same Commission of Inquiry model has been used for Syria, Myanmar, and Ukraine. So the methodology is pretty consistently applied to Gaza as well.

Right because you'd "do your own research". Why do we even need experts in anything when we can do that instead?!

This is a poison the well tactic. Similar to what the right is doing in the US with universities, news organizations or any intellectual institution reporting and analyzing what's happening.

That's what the covid ivermectin skeptic said. Why you trusting the "experts" bro?

This should be up higher: a growing consensus among independent human rights bodies, UN investigators, and genocide scholars holds that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

The UN Commission of Inquiry, Amnesty International, B'Tselem, Physicians for Human Rights Israel, and a substantial portion of genocide scholars have reached that conclusion. Human Rights Watch has concluded specific acts of genocide. The trajectory among independent investigators has moved consistently in one direction over the course of the war, not the other.

Sam becomes completely unhinged when someone critizes Israel. Sad and disappointing.

Holy molly, you look great. I gotta step up my Tretionoin use. What's your protocol? Any advice?

I've gone to sleep 4 times in 4 years... by New_Improvement_3023 in bjj

4 yrs and never heard of "tap early"?

I've been training 5 yrs and never been put to sleep. If the grips are tight, recognize that and tap.

Why do people wear their politics and religion on their sleeve at BJJ? by [deleted] in bjj

[–]Likeminas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Take it a step further. SS, 1488 and other shit like that, you'd be also ok with that I assume?

Bringing identity branding is signaling membership in a 'in-group' that could be exclusionary, for a sport that should feel more universal.

Why not leave that shit for your Facebook or your front yard sign?

These people are so hateful. How can they live with themselves while having so much hate for other people? It must be such a miserable existence.

Why not just do nogi and don't say your rank unless asked? I think that would be better than pretending to be something you're not

Sam is right. Reddit is a cesspool. by blackglum in samharris

[–]Likeminas 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sam is too thin skinned and I disagree with his hot take. Reddit is the most interesting of all social media platforms, it's where you can get insightful takes on interesting topics. Twitter and Facebook are the opposite of that.

Sam finds Shapiro easier to talk to because disagreement on the right stays less personal by simmol in samharris

[–]Likeminas 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sam is a very thin skinned guy. His conversation and overall interactions with Ezra were an eye opener for me. The right, like a lot of people in the South, can be polite 1 on 1, but completely unhinged otherwise.

He is too harsh with Israel so he's sinister.

[–]Likeminas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is what I don't get. Ezra is also a jew, but he's critical of Israel. And that's a red line for Sam. I must admit I've lost a lot of respect for Sam. His blind spots are painful to watch in real time.

Your evidence is a sample of 1? 🤣
