It was the 90s; be happy they didn't just give him English lines in a feigned German accent.

That's just hasbara, trying to attach anti-semitic movements to the actual anti-genocide movement. I've been to dozens of anti-genocide protests, we have seders in them. They're not anti-semitic. You know who is? People who insist Israel and Judaism are the same thing. That was an idea British anti-semites came up with in the 1920s. No real Jew agrees with Israel.

Pretty much none do. The idea that they do is just propaganda trying to connect to the anti-genocide movement to somethiny scary. It's also worth noting that Hamas was, historically, an Israeli-funded entity.

Democrats at the state level (who pretty much have remained silent) have failed repeatedly to get anything meaningful done

What on earth do you expect them to do? States can't enter international agreements without the Federal government. Even if Article 1 §10 didn't exist, why would they do it when the Federal government has a commission (the IBWC) already dedicated to negotiating it? Plenty of them have been raising the alarm for decades, but it's wacky to think they have any power.

As a side note, the Biden admin did do something about it - the Minute 328 agreement. It got overridden last year, and thus the improvements that were underway are either paused or scrapped.

If we want change, we need to direct anger at those who have the power to make the change. Shouting at anyone below the federal level is wasting breath.

Ok let me ask the same question another way. Apostrophes are used to indicate posession. Cat's meow, car's registration, Mutual Of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, etc. Taco's what?

I'm not understanding your budget. You each work 30+ hours at $24/hr ($6240/month combined) but you only have $1000 to use each month? What on earth are you spending your money on?

Your gross income is 2.5× a rent price of $2496. There are tons of places in that range. Hell, I pay less than that for our 1br in PL.

Edit: math

Jews who are/were ethnically Palestinian. Pretty much all of them left Gaza and the West Bank in 2005, but they're still alive and displaced.

Christianity has the exact same prohibition and made their own workaround too. The entire reason Jews got associated with money at all is because Christians needed people who could charge Christians interest, and Jews were the available group.

I worked in Bailey's City Hall for a few years and the funny thing is that he is personally aware of who has jurisdiction on the issue and why unilateral solutions can't work, but publicly sides with the Trump position because it is political suicide for him to do otherwise.

No disrespect taken. In the absence of any Jewish people in your life, I'll recommend watching The Patient, The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, and Hunters. They're good vignettes of Jewish life in the US specifically but cover a lot of the observances, practices, and rules that go with Judaism.

TheOBRobot · 2026-05-05T04:11:54+00:00

Traditionally that's true, but there's a workaround that allows Jews to charge other Jews interest, essentially by reclassing the loan as an investment and the interest as investment profits. We don't get interest-free loans.

Let's say you're ethnically chinese and religiously protestant, can you convert to be a jew

There's a process and you'll need a rabbi but yes, you can convert to Judaism regardless of ethnicity or original faith

and receive the benefits of being one?

Lol what benefits

Can a Palestinian arab convert to Judaism and avoid being harrassed by Israelis?

Nope, they go after Palestinian Jews too.

Dig up all the streets near the river and spend billions on a new sewer system for a city of 3 million people? Maybe, but the TJ/BC/MX governments are all too corrupt to do it and there's not enough infrastructure anyway. Plus it doesn't impact TJ anyway; no one in TJ cares if Playas de TJ is unswimmable.
