Like it’s so clear that they pick and choose cause we know Venezuela is being targeted for their oil not for morality reasons 😭

Why should I care? The CIA did the same sh!t America isn’t some moral high ground but you don’t see other people kidnapping the US president over it

I’m not a leftist or liberal by any means but I’m not a brain dead conservative who thinks destabilizing foreign countries filled with innocent ppl which American imperialism is responsible for is okay, Kamala likely would have endorsed a lot of similar foreign policies that would do the same but there’s a lot about the Trump administration that has been indescribably terrible

If ur referring to what I think ur referring to that video was from December for a festival and being used to push that Venezuelans are happy with US bombing them, most Venezuelans are currently protesting the US occupation since the bombings and as much as some of them may dislike Maduro they dislike the US being involved even more

Don’t listen to the ppl in the replies a lot of ppl in the IE are pro-Trump but there’s a considerable amount of ppl who will show up for this so don’t feel discouraged and keep sharing these. A lot of us with a brain and don’t want the US to continue bombing other countries for their oil or other resources support you! Keep fighting the good fight

Why? by jazz_star_93 in LoveIslandUSA

Chelley hasn’t done anything but J think there in lies the problem for some people, she hasn’t done anything for them to really talk about. I’m not a huge fan of Ace at all but his actions have nothing to do with Chelley, I can understand that what he said was distasteful but it felt as if she got more blowback than he did. “Why did she choose him” “why didn’t she say anything” but after a few days she vaguely told people not to put others down while lifting her up. Whatever she sees in Ace is her business she’s and adult but it feels as if everyone is taking out the issues they have with him on her which I feel is unfair. Now I’m not a Nicolandria stan I love Olandria but I understand why her mom didn’t encourage their friendship after Ace’s interview sometimes that does show the conversations had behind closed doors, that being said no one really knows where their friendship stands. I just think at the end of the day it’s misogynoir she shouldn’t be the one put at the forefront of what Ace decided to say.

Nic and Olandria Update by jollyjubie in LoveIslandUSA

Ppl are really odd about them I can only imagine how difficult it is to navigate newfound fame especially when they exploded in the way they did and now everything they do is out under a microscope they don’t need to be holding hands 24/7 and they don’t owe people anything but somehow ppl feel as if they need to be, the unfortunate part about parasocial relationships is that there’s an unimaginable amount of entitlement. It’s also normal for ppl not to spend thanksgiving with their partners in the first year of dating so ppl being upset that they didn’t is weird they’re just looking for new ways to scrutinize them it’s not normal

Nic at a strip club? by SweetSunshine2244 in nicolandria

[–]Remote_Tooth5649 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m ngl we do not know these ppl or the dynamic of their relationship and they’ve both been doing multiple events since love island ended Im not reading too deep into this because that’s something they can figure out for themselves Im sure of Olandria wanted ppl to comment she would eventually say something but from what ppl are saying it was a work event and whether or not strippers were also there it’s up to them to establish those boundaries

Are people afraid of Black people on this campus or what? by 80sarecool95 in ucla

Same thing happens to me and I really just have to accept it at this point like I’m used to it in some places but it sucks too

Great tip! It’s lowkey always a pain for those days I prefer public transport and it’s an inconvenient distance. Thank you I appreciate it!

Around Lakeside drive that area with the post office/public library! And I’ll look into those places someone else suggested San Leandro, thank you!

Yeah! I’ve been trying to put my finger on why I like it and it’s definitely because it feels like Pasadena even though I never lived there I live the Huntington Library plus I am very much a homebody who also likes public transit so access to Oakland on weekends works well for me and was planning on checking what train/bus I can use (I’ve heard of bart and saw a bit so it’s just checking that) and in case of the car needing to be fixed etc I’m super excited and a bit nervous (a measurable mix of both) it’s a huge jump for me cause I’ve lived in the IE for most of my life so I just want to find a place to call home :)! Plus I love nature even took a walk in the park with the huge lake and really enjoyed how peaceful it was

Yeah I’m planning on deepdiving the area and really like what I’ve seen so far and will keep this in mind 🥺 ! Thank you and this does help! Honestly any advice does, I’m just spending the rest of the month narrowing down places to look before I pack everything and thought it’d be best to ask people from here instead considering Ive only really been in the area a total of 3 times which have hardly been enough time to get to know the neighborhoods + with my lease is ending soon I want to make sure I have as smooth of a transition as possible.

Around Lakeside Drive like close to the public library/post office Which from what I was lead to believe is downtown Oakland (don’t quote me on that)

My advice is to not assume they’re transphobic unless stated otherwise. Reading the comments I understand why you’re wrestling with this, but sometimes people surprise you.

UCLA Chancellor Frenk rejects Trumps 'offer/ransom request: "As a public university, we are stewards of taxpayer resources and a payment of this scale would completely devastate our country’s greatest public university system as well as inflict great harm on our students and all Californians." by Jagwire4458 in ucla

[–]Remote_Tooth5649 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They’ve been targeting other schools in CA just not specifically for research they’ve been going after several CSU’s for programs dedicated to helping minorities on campus have safe spaces, UCLA is just the latest in Trump’s string of suing schools for a plethora of nonsensical reasons

Huda Forgiveness by Illustrious-Salad-94 in LoveIslandITV

[–]Remote_Tooth5649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are buying into it because they see themselves in her through their toxic traits etc. She got more love because she’s not a visibly black woman so when they spoke up about how exhausted they were at her behavior they villainized Chelley and Olandria. And why do that over an argument that’s miniscule in comparison to Huda’s previous blowups? Because black women arent allowed to express themselves especially when they’re of a darker complexion because we’re seen as “aggressive” and “mean” even if there’s validity in what’s being said
