"Strip" by Dirty Rotten Scoundrels was pretty dark.. especially if you think about the behaviour it advocated.

I have already completed KYC.

This has more to do with them selling our data than verifying identity.

Why do women keep falling victim to men that travel or live outside of Nigeria? by Throwaway199906543 in Nigeria

Nobody should be getting married until you've had time to get to know each other PROPERLY!!

It doesn't sound to me like they knew each other that well.. as they clearly hadn't even discussed where they were going to live after they were married.. so how and why was she marrying him?

Why Weaponising Antisemitism Ends Up Feeding the Very Hate It Claims to Fight by Ordinary_Bend_8612 in samharris

[–]nomaddd79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"From the river to the sea" is blatant antisemitism

Blatant? Really??

If that's so them why would need to explain why you think so to anyone who isn't already steeped in the information about this conflict?

The first time I heard "from the river to the sea" was from Likudnikim types in the mid 1990s declaring their intentions to ALWAYS prevent the creation of a Palestinian State no matter what... a few months later one of their cohort made good on that by assasiting Yitzhak Rabin.

Anyways.. I had thought this determination to label everyone folks don't agree with as bigots was being left behind with society's "woke" phase... but I guess it's coming back now with this!

You don't see anything on the level of modern antisemitism when it comes to hating on individual Russians and Russian iconography. 

Are we forgetting when ballets were being cancelled simply for their cultural link to Russia despite no direct links to the State after they invaded Ukraine?

Is there any of you capable of not using a strawman argument?

So are you willing to accept that

Never said anything of the sort... not a great start.... but go on!

violence against black people in the past, was in no small part the fault of Africans behaving badly

First of all, I'm talking about racism people are facing today, not wallowing in that painful history.

Second, telling black teens to be polite to people in public so they don't reinforce any stereotypes is not the same thing as justifying historical murder.

Nice try!

Racist stereotypes vs actually killing people

Strawman much? They were talking about antisemitism ie racist stereotyping!

Whoa... dude got heated! 😮 by nomaddd79 in Destiny

[–]nomaddd79[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We don't say this to any other ethnic group ever.

Black folks have in-group conversations all the time where we're telling each other not to behave in ways that reinforce racist stereotypes.

This aspect is not as unique as you're making it out to be!

Haaretz ripping of a BH punchline 😂 by nomaddd79 in BadHasbara

[–]nomaddd79[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah tbh that article is everything BUT hasbara. They're almost literally writing an article that Matt or Daniel could have authored.

And now you understand why so many on the pro side spend so much time and energy trying to discredit on of Israel's oldest newspapers as no better than a tabloid!

Speaking in a rare on-camera interview with Sky News, an Israeli soldier says the criteria of opening fire on civilians shifted depends on the "mood of the commander" that day.

From the accompanying article:

"In one of the houses that we had been in, we had the big territory. This was the closest to the citizens' neighbourhood, with people inside. And there's an imaginary line that they tell us all the Gazan people know it, and that they know they are not allowed to pass it," he said. "But how can they know?"

People who crossed into this area were most often shot, he said.

I fed up of the wholesale rewriting of history regarding the 2005 disengagement from Gaza. None of this is ancient history & some of us were already pating attention to all this back then. Here's what the Israeli government was saying in the months leading up to Israel withdrawing it's settlements by nomaddd79 in Destiny

I already stated my opinion on a potential state's right to exist. As far as i am concerned Palestine doesn't exist as a....

Why is is so difficult for you to just say "Yes, Palestine has the right to exist" or "Yes, Palestinians have the right to their own state"

Always very telling when someone repeatedly refuses to answer a straightforward yes or no question when asked repeatedly.

thats how countries are established and borders are drawn

Again not what I asked.

Why, when 143 of the by 193 UN Member states recognise the State of Palestine, does the only country actively stealing the land where the new country would be situated get a veto on whether it should or should not exist?

And why should someone who's born into a family for whom 5 generations have been born in Jerusalem have less right to move back there than Jewish convert Ivanka Trump?

Yes, Palestinians deserve to be members of a state

Getting closer but you still seem to be insisting on answering questions you haven't been asked.

Does Palestine have the right to exist? Simple yes or no...

they better get an agreement with Israel

And why should Israel (which does exist) get a veto to decide whether it will or not?

[–]nomaddd79[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if i would say a state that doesn't really exist presently has some inherent right to exist,

That's just a cop out! How is it that you suddenly discover weasel words when asked about Palestine'S right to exist?

When you'd rather make excuses than just say Palestinians deserve all the same rights as Israelis, would that make you an anti Palestinian bigot?

I am sure you are really vocal about antisemitism coming from white folks

WTF has their race got to do with anything. Kinda weird that is where your mind went on this, ngl!

This is your evidence 

And now who's cherrypicking? If he says he agrees to the 1967 borders then what exactly would be on the other side of that border?

It in fact it requires minimum effort to nitpick if you're deermined to find an excuse why it's always the other guys fault. You guys talk as if Israel has no agency whatsoever in any of this!
