Poe’s law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author’s intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

Those silly commies don’t understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.

Empty threat is empty.

Oh! Well nevermind, then.

Please proceed.

Why do conservatives insist on making the left look so cool?

Thing is: There’s plenty Hamas & related groups did on Oct 7th to enrage a population - no exaggeration is necessary.

However, there ISN’T enough to justify a genocide … especially since Israelis have been torturing Palestinians for decades.

Israel needs to de-humanize the locals to the point where the population can justify an ethnic cleansing. Hence: Ridiculous accusations of using breasts as foot-balls and mass rape.

“Israel offered an evolving account of the incident as the day progressed.”

Awesome way to say: Making up shit and seeing what sticks

Honest question from an ignorant 'Murican, with no context about what this controversy is about:

To a Hindu, would naming the lion ‘Akbar’ kinda be like naming an elephant ‘Hitler’ in Israel?

Or is this all just a religious/ cultural thing that makes no sense to outsiders such as myself?

… and 68, and 69, and 70, etc, etc, etc…

Anyone who would get enjoyment from watching this kind of event has a diseased soul. As has been said elsewhere: It’s BumFights with a higher budget.

They’re just going to go in and murder everyone that refuses or is unable to flee. We all know it’s going to happen.

Moreover: There will be no political consequences for any European or American policy-maker that is helping this massacre happen.

This is the end of the “Rules based order.” It wasn’t a very good system, but it provided a modicum of protection and humanity in a very brutal world.

Suggest you forward your fact-based info as an Amicus Curiae brief to the ICJ, and/or to Israeli barristers who will deeply appreciate your hard work on behalf of Zionism.

Otherwise … fuck off.

as part of an Israeli plan to construct a security zone just inside Gaza—to which Palestinians would be barred entry.

INSIDE Gaza. They already built their apartheid prison-wall inside Gaza, in violation of international law or Palestinian consent. Now they are going to take even more land for their concentration camp.

The point of the ICJ and laws against genocide and ethnic cleansing is to protect minorities, like, say, Jews.

So if they’re saying that those post WWII rules are now null and void… then there’s nothing to protect them once the US Empire either withdraws or loses interest in providing cover.

I see no downside whatsoever.

Wait … you mean the Canadian government is willing to step in to make sure their people can get access to medications? Isn’t that communism or something?

What’s heartbreaking about this is that they were supposed to be God’s chosen people.

If genocide and ethnic cleansing is what God wants, I’m really glad we killed him.

you’d think members of Israel’s government would know better than to say shit like this

It’s a combination of factors:

1. Israelis view the locals as little more than animals.

2. Israelis have been able to get away with their brutal treatment of the locals for generations now.

1. Acknowledging that the people who hurt you are living in your head and you’re ready to move on. A lot of folks are unable to even get this far.

2. Therapy.

3. Truly internalize the realization that the act of imagining scenarios where you get to hurt the people who hurt you is like drinking poison with the expectation that someone other than yourself will be made ill.

4. living a good life.

This journey is difficult and requires a lot of self-reflection and maturity. Best of luck to you.

This is such anti-semitic blood-libel!

Let me explain: 100% of Hamas members eat bread. Children eat bread. Therefore children deserve to starve.

Checkmate!

Now where do you work? I need to make sure you get fired for being so racist.
