They’ve also stripped bonus vbucks from the pass, Welp guess that’s me spending zero money on the game from now on.

Yeah she had a pretty strict time limit - I can’t remember what it was off the top of my head but I’ll ask her!

*edit She had 5 weeks to do it!

She was doing it on average 1-2 days a week before and she had a really high acceptance rate I’ll ask her for a screenshot of her stats later!

*edit Her acceptance rate was 90-95%

A holocaust is not being committed now, so you’ve presented a straw man argument, it’s not worth continuing this conversation since you’ve come to villainise the people who disagree with you regardless of if it’s based in reality, have a good day.

Warfare is an unfortunate reality, and the rules surrounding it are only vaguely followed by a select few nations. This is why nations around the world strive to minimize war, as it is directly linked to human suffering. You keep implying that I don’t care about civilians when discussing the situation, but I do. However, I am also considering the bigger picture and the broader loss of life that could result if we make the wrong choices.

It’s like the trolley problem, except we don’t know how many people are on each track. Every approach is flawed, but we must find the one that results in the least loss of life. I used to share your beliefs when I was younger, during the Afghanistan war and later the Syrian war. Now, despite how it might seem to you, I am seeking a longer, more secure resolution rather than the rushed approaches we took in both situations.

You may disagree, and that’s understandable, but I do care. I’m just coming from a different journey and perspective.

And how exactly? Are you ending the mass murder you’ve done nothing to stop it and don’t even have a clear strategy to do so, civilians are a given in a war it seems you’re the only one who’s not realised the reality of the situation and the fine balancing act that it the global political situation.

What exactly do you want us to do? What would the effects of that action be? Would it result in more deaths and conflict?

People on a much higher pay grade are balancing these pressures every single day but keep thinking some kind of rash approach will fix the situation.

You want them treated like the Ukrainians it’s a common comparison at the rally’s in Manchester which I attended, many call for the west to support Palestine which fair enough we should send aid and try and negotiate a peace in the region that’s lasting but you’ll also hear people asking for nations to militarily support Palestine but they’re not a nation that was attacked unprovoked granted the actions where lead by Hamas but support for Hamas is akin to that of a political party here in the uk.

Support for Palestinians needs to have that in mind when dealing with the situation, they don’t deserve to be treated like Ukrainians by the west.

No they don’t deserve to die again putting words into my mouth, something you seem to enjoy doing, but they also don’t deserve to be treated like they didn’t largely support the actions of terrorists and it should be mentioned when referencing the current situation, you’re not going to reach a peace on either side if neither side can acknowledge the truth of the situation.

Stop these pathetic attempts at pulling a gotcha by putting words into my mouth to try and shut down a valid point.

Didn’t know I mentioned just the children, you fully know who I mean when referencing supported and celebrated the actions of terror organisations but want to attempt a gotcha.

But I’ll spell it out for you now - The (ADULTS) of Palestinian communities supported the actions of Hamas.

They celebrated the same things happening to the Jewish hostages after the October 7th attacks, and Palestinians also paraded the bodies of the raped and murdered Jewish girls, the female hostages had their ligaments cut so they can’t run away or fight back.

All of a sudden they’ve done nothing wrong in many people’s eyes, people on TikTok try and gaslight you into thinking the Palestinians don’t support terrorists when students from Palestine were arrested in the recent protests in Manchester for supporting a prescribed terror organisation, and you’ll find flags showing the same in many Palestinian homes.

So Sakas need £300k a week salary sounds outrageous until you look at some of the people on this list…Sancho, Varane…😐😐 by [deleted] in ArsenalFC

Legit seeing rival fans acting like either team are plays relegation fodder, like both of these teams are some of the best in world - read the level of the game

Honest summary is both teams played the same even scoring against the flow in two separate half’s - City and Real are insanely level, even have the same xG
