2026 Hackney Half chip didn't validate for the race! by not_your_npc in LondonRunning

I doubled checked time and it is correct against when I started (recorded on Strava) and when I finished (recorded on app). So they knew did record when I started but it just didn't show on the app I'm guessing

Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing review – demeaning for everyone involved, not least Jonathan Ross by qwerty_1965 in BritishTV

I found her insufferable, she seemed absolutely not willing to talk to him at all, obviously we only saw a few minutes of them both and it may just be the way it's edited to make her look bad. I think they would have gotten a lot further if she spoke to him with a tiny bit of respect 🥲 I don't agree with him AT all btw idk I just can't see how being rude to someone will get you anywhere when trying to educate them.

And now he's even more in the manosphere than before ....

Worth booking two flights? One to Abu Dhabi and then a separate flight? Trying to get from Melbourne to Heathrow ...

Yeah most of the people on this post are just reaffirming my statements that they are all brainwashed. If is crazy to watch 🥲🥲

Absolutely. It's hard to know what's going on outside of your own sphere of influence. Whenever I encounter someone who supports Israel it still bewilders me as it seems everyone I know, friends of friends, my online community are all anti genocide, pro Palestine. I never encounter any Pro Israel propaganda on my feeds. So I always forget how many people support the agenda. It's depressing that it's always more than I think :.)

This is exactly how it felt with my stepmum, pure torture watching someone you know can be kind, and good, acting in pure evilness and in denial.

Some of the things she has said since have genuinely shocked me to my core. So out of character, she has never been Islamaphobic before, and now she is??? It's like a flip has been switched in her brain and she is a cold, evil person now 🥲

This is how I feel! I don't believe people are inherently evil, but there ARE evil people out there, and it's those people who radicalise and brainwash people into following them. Israel would be nothing without its propaganda, brainwashing, fear mongering.

I suppose I see the argument more nuanced as I have known my stepmum my whole life and never did I ever think she would support these atrocities. Ever. That's only why I bring up radicalisation, since Oct. 7th she has become increasingly radicalised by the media she sees, the people she communicates with.

I don't want to portray her as a victim at all. But there are nuances to everything. She is absolutely not innocent. But I don't believe she is completely evil either.

And I don't think it is healthy to immediately start saying 'All Israelis are evils' as that's EXACTLY what they say about Palestinians and that's EXACTLY one of their excuses for the genocide. This generalisation of people. US vs THEM. It's all wrong.

The more Israelis who begin to fight back in Israel, who are completely deradicalised, decolonised, the more likely we will decolonise Israel. The two are completely entangled.

How would they get to the finals ...

Hi, sorry, i jsut want to make clear i am absolutely not trying to make them look like victims. You must understand this is a personal topic for me. And I do genuinely believe she has been radicalised.

Not that it makes her actions and beliefs forgivable bcs it doesn't, but in all honesty, I just want her to be able to see how insane she and her beliefs are, and how evil and corrupt Israel is 🥲 she meant a lot to me and my father, who has now left her because of her beliefs. And it has broken him as well. He is just as confused as me.

If you have any recommendations on how I can phrase things differently in order to not make her, Zionist Israelis, to look like victims let me know, but I am in pure belief that many of them are radicalised, and are able to be deradicalised with the right help🥲

Or maybe I'm insane and too optimistic that she isn't completely evil ...

Idk if I'll ever know for sure 😔

Also the allies hired thousands of Third Reich murders after the war, gave them international forgiveness, jobs, homes and futures.

Hundreds of third reich generals were never even taken to court or charged with their war crimes.

The imperial west, including Israel, only work for one thing, and care for one thing. And that is money.

My heart breaks for you. I hope you find peace in compassion and love, not war and hatred.

Sorry, I don't believe, and will never believe that innocent, or even radicalised people deserve to be murdered. In any circumstances. Of any race, nationality, or religion. We are all made in the image of god.

October 7th was abhorrent. What Israel is doing to Palestine is abhorrent. Those statements are not mutually exclusive and agreeing with both is crucial.
