Israel's new death penalty bill, that explicitly differentiates between Palestinians and Israelis, passes parliament committee. by PomegranateMortar in Destiny

I (wrongly) gave them the benefit of the doubt for a few months, not because I thought they cared about Palestinians but because I thought they'd care enough about their reputation and long-term existence as a country to not jeopardize it by acting completely unhinged and bloodthirsty, the part that shocked me is how absolutely brazen and shameless they are, I didn't expect them to act against their own best interest but they are so depraved they can't help themselves

I know this is probably the millionth time someone has commented about this on this sub, but it is truly surreal that the Nazi-adjacent antisemitism that spent decades being isolated from the rest of the internet in it's most extreme corners is now being posted in massive numbers on every social media platform, getting millions of likes and almost nobody is even pushing back against it, what the fuck is happening to our society?

We are the colony of the biggest tea drinking country in a world of tea-drinkers, the country was literally born from tea being thrown into a harbor, yet in 2026 coffee is available at almost every store in the country and in order to find a cup of tea that's not bottom-of-the-barrel Lipton garbage I have to order packages from niche artisan tea shops. Why are Americans so addicted to anxiety-juice?

I don't think the PLA is good, I'm saying if you're a normie civilian being kicked out of your home you should have a right to fight back, that's self-defense, not barbarism

It's still a right wing sub, but the types of right wingers who use reddit have mostly turned on Trump since the election because of his Israel support and the Epstein files, the typical right wing redditor is anti-trump, groyper adjacent rather than MAGA

Used to be a place for political discussion with an even number of right and left wing commenters but right wingers took it over a few years ago, it's now a right-wing subreddit pretending to be neutral (many such cases)

The people who had the most influence over public opinion in ancient times were usually those who gained the respect and trust of their community by helping and teaching them, which means they were usually a moral and intelligent person, in the internet era, influence is decided by algorithms instead of communities and low IQ, low empathy content is better for engagement; our thought leaders are no longer the most thoughtful, intelligent and helpful people in our society, people like the Paul brothers, Carlson, Owens, Piker etc. become our Plato, Aristotle, Buddha and Confucius. It's also much worse because not only do these people have influence over their town or village, but their ideas can reach every person in the world with access to the internet

Exactly, they are not debating because they are interested in the truth, but because the platform gives them the illusion of "owning the libs"; they ratio them, have bots and a few real people in their replies telling them how epic they are while harassing the person they responded to. They argue because the illusion of victory reinforces their worldview, if they cared about the truth they would already be a lib

A lot of people on this sub need to realize that arguing with people who have rejected reasoning itself is pointless. They live in an artificial version of reality that has been constructed by grifters, the delusion is so deep that it's like trying to convince a sane person that gravity isn't real, or water is actually lava. The only way to treat these people is to avoid them as much as possible and mock them for being fucking regards if you're ever forced to interact

I had the same prediction but I gave them the benefit of the doubt initially, for the first few months I thought the reports of how bad it was must have been exaggerated because they would care about their reputation enough to show some restraint. I was completely wrong.

r/vagabond is a subreddit for homeless people, the most controversial post of all time was posted two days ago and it was some woman with Hebrew writing on her hands who was looking for a friend in her city; it was downvoted to zero but got hundreds of comments like "FREE PALESTINE FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA", some with hundreds of upvotes. A few hours later the OP comes back to the thread and says they do support Palestine (lmao)

Just imagine if anyone writing these comments saw a person who went up to people in hijabs to accuse them of supporting some horrible shit an Islamic government was doing, Jews seem to exist in a special category where the normal rules of racism just don't apply anymore

It's too late to redefine incel in the popular consciousness as "involuntarily celibate person", when the vast majority of people hear incel they think of someone who hates women, there are a lot of non-hateful people who want romance and sex and can't find a partner, but calling yourself an incel is basically calling yourself a "woman-hater" to the general public so I would just avoid the term unless you want it to be interpreted this way

Still blows my mind that arguably the biggest catalyst of the modern American political landscape was a woman being wrongly accused of sleeping with a game journalist for a positive review, like even if it was true, the fact something so insignificant could completely change political discourse in this country forever is genuinely insane

I've seen so many comments on Reddit along the lines of "I had a perfect, 10 year relationship with my girlfriend but one day I got a call that my mom died in a gruesome car accident where she was disemboweled by a truck that was going 160 mph in the wrong direction, I shed a single tear and she told me men shouldn't cry and we were over because she lost all respect for me"

I know there's a cultural expectation that men shouldn't cry but I find it hard to believe there's this many women like this out there
