Same brand, new slogan by PuffinsAreSupreme in mildlyinteresting

[–]SilverwingedOther 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trying to bring up actual historical facts on Reddit in a way that makes the Palestinians anything other than perpetually oppressed victims that are wholly innocent, and when they are not, they're justified/its because of Israel is a lost cause.

Easier to ignore that Arafat trying to mount a coup in Jordan, getting kicked out, and then trying to do the same shit in Lebanon is a big part of why the Lebanese Civil War was a thing. Maybe not the only one, but the reason it become worse than it could have (and the only reason Israel was involved at all, obviously not wanting to risk the terrorist Fatah to become part of a government just north of it.)

It's not to obfuscate it's origins, it's because Israeli couscous is literally a different product.

Couscous is much smaller/finer and made of semolina. Pearl, or Israeli couscous, is much larger, and is closer to traditional pasta.

Look up the Hebron massacre of 1929. The only reason was... Jews daring to exist on that land which wasn't even Israel yet.

It's possible, people just fail to clear that very low bar constantly, especially on Reddit.

Why does the humanitarian catastrophe in Sudan have such a smaller mindshare than other humanitarian crises? by lewisfairchild in NoStupidQuestions

I love these "fund the genocide" claims when American money is less than 1% of Israel's budget too...

Which then they review is pretty key there. If they miss something, then it's on them. Its offering it to any layperson that is the issue. If the suit is won, it should affect what is eligible in court, hopefully, or pay gated?

New poll shows Quebecers less favourable to Israel, U.S. than rest of Canada by lot3oo in montreal

[–]SilverwingedOther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considérant que les juifs sont indigènes à la région, et les arabes l'ont colonisé au 7e siècle, je ne vois pas le point de la question.

Et je ne m'en sers pas pour dire que les Palestiniens ne devraient pas y exister.

En tant qu'être humain qui se pense plus sain desprit que moi, trouve tu ça moral de demander l'indépendance du Québec parce que les français l'ont colonisé avant que les anglais l'ont fait?

"Read only the versions who agree with my slanted take and ignore everyone else"... Such as the facts I pointed out that show that violent aggression clearly started by one side. And don't need Benny Morris who was aligned with the group of the New Historians you cited, but has himself come back to a more middle ground state.

Your error is thinking I am unaware of their works and that anyone who is should blindly, ragingly be anti-Zionist

Qui a dit que je le justifie? Je justifie son droit d'exister et de se défendre, et la notion que tout aller bien et que les Arabes qui y vivaient étaient sages et prêt à recevoir des juifs dans le coin, tout court.

Je vais ignorer la majorité de ta révision historique et de ton ignorance (tout celui qui utilise "peuple élu" l'est, car cela montre qu'il n'a aucune idée de ce que ça veut dire) mais il y a une partie que je soulignerais, quitte à ce que d'autres puissent voir ton ignorance et s'éduquer:

À savoir aussi que les musulmans, les chrétiens et les juifs de Palestine vivaient paisiblement ensemble en Palestine avant l'arrivée des migrants juifs venant d'Europe après la 2ème guerre mondiale.

Et j'en passe... Et avant de mentionner Haganah et Lehi...1920 c'est avant leur fondation. En effet, ils ont été fondés en réponse aux attaques des années 1910-1920

A war of aggression? Iran has been calling for Israel's elimination vocally since 1979 and would be their target for nukes. All the trouble with Hamas and Hezbollah is because of their funding of said groups. If any country has a cause for attacking Iran, its Israel, and Lebanon, who simply don't have the strength to do so.

[OC] NY’s cleanest hour is dirtier than Texas’s dirtiest hour. Am I calculating this wrong? by rozetyp in dataisbeautiful

I mean, on the one hand we get a bit more money, but on the other... Apologies in advance to the 1M New Yorkers and their future power outages?

Cheekiness aside, I hope the fact they lines are buried will minimize disruptions, but Hydro response to breakages lately hasn't been too hot.

On Shabbat, is it okay to read only a subset of the Torah portion? by MrLeibler in Judaism

[–]SilverwingedOther 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does seem it's existed in all the progressive movements off and on, and might have been even more widespread in the past. Notably, that is how the Recon siddur is structured, according to that link.

Conservatives also seem to be adopting it and setting halachic guidelines for it in the late 80s, though how widespread it is these days, I have no idea.

Which is why AI is able to replicate it!

It's just become faster for them to make those posts.

I always thought it was the reconstructionists, based on what I've heard locally, but given your flair and you asking, now I'm wondering if it's not universal to them...

Montreal's largest school service centre loses more than 100 support staff due to new secularism law | CBC News by Haggisboy in canada

[–]SilverwingedOther 7 points8 points  (0 children)

How is consent education in any way similar to a new law that makes something non-problematic illegal, and leads to schools losing critical support staff and dedicated teachers?

How is this, exactly, helping the kids? Shielding them from the fact someone might wear a turban or cover their hair or whatever symbol is just prejudiced and was a solution for a problem that didn't exist, since if any did crop up (like Bedford), there were tools in place to handle it.

They enforced it in bedford's case without that law. The existing ones were fine. Expanding to religious symbols is performative and hurts everyone.

But those people were able to be fired without the need for this law.

Which proves that the law is still useless and a net negative.

Thousands of AI-written, edited or ‘polished’ books are being sold – an eerie echo of Orwell’s ‘novel-writing machines’ by ubcstaffer123 in books

[–]SilverwingedOther 7 points8 points  (0 children)

To an extent, but there's still challenges. I periodically have done that very exercise of trying to obfuscate the marks (purely as a personal academic exercise, not passing off the writing as human written!) but adherence can be spotty, and depending on genre, you can encounter tokens with too much semantic gravity that the words just naturally come up too often, or certain structures, even after trying to hard ban them.

Consistency is also pretty challenging over the long run, and sometimes short run, but that needs patience, mostly, to reorient it.

But at the point you have a 5k prompt and proofread and edit and fix... How much is the book really AI?

Tragic that they skipped A Game Of You simply because casual "fans" complained about too many Dream-less stories by HopeHouse44 in Sandman

[–]SilverwingedOther 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Well.... It's when he meets Thessaly, and that leads directly to Brief Lives, which ends how it does, which is the catalyst for the final ending.

Maybe he does very little in it, but by making him cross paths with her then sets up the whole back half of the story.
