The Times of Israel article titled "to dislike certain ethnicities is racist; to see Jews as equal is antisemitism"

Body of article reads "Understand the specialty of antisemitism.

Jews are the only People based on an assignment. And their Divinely ordained task is to be exemplary to all of humanity. To be G^d's ambassadors on earth, fighting for the good of everyone.

That means when one says that Jews are like everyone else, you're a bigot"

in response to "why heated rivalry is showing gay sex on screen but every major sports league (of men) has few to none out gay/bi men players (note this doesn't mean gay intimacy doesn't happen) while women's leagues are more open about it but are perpetually mocked & at risk of axe"

the thing is both men and women are really gay. the issue is that men have homosocial places to be gay but actively refuse it and even kill men over the possibility b/c manhood relies on misogynistic self-differentiation & policing of effeminacy. and women want to be gay but have no places to be gay

PAGE 3 - PANEL A
On the left side of the frame is DeShaun putting away the groceries. 	In the middle is Rocky, sitting at the left end of the table. Lilly is on the right, still with her elbows on the table and face in her hands. 

DESHAUN:		YOUR PARTNERS MUST LOVE THAT

ROCKY:		NEVER BEEN IN A RELATIONSHIP. NEVER HAD A ONE-NIGHT STAND. NEVER HAD ANYTHING IN BETWEEN. NEVER WANTED TO.

LILLY:			Iโ€™VE ALWAYS WANTED TO SETTLE DOWN
WITH SOMEONE WHO ISNโ€™T A CIS MAN, BUT I NEVER HAD THE TIME.

PAGE 3 - PANEL B
	The viewer is inside the cabinet where DeShaun just put the pasta. Weโ€™re looking at DeShaun very closely, and their face takes up the majority of the frame. 
DESHAUN:		EVERYONE I MEET THINKS Iโ€™M A CIS MAN, JUST BECAUSE I DONโ€™T TAKE HORMONES AND EXPRESS MY MASCULINITY. I MAY BE A MAN, BUT Iโ€™M A NONBINARY MAN. I DONโ€™T OWE ANYONE ANDROGYNY.

PAGE 3 - PANEL C
	The viewer is pulled back again. DeShaun is on the left, Rocky is in the center, and Lilly is on the right.
	DeShaun has finished putting away the groceries and has an empty paper bag in his hand. Heโ€™s expressing confusion at Rocky, but it has no angry energy. Itโ€™s softer than that.
	Rocky is looking over his shoulder at DeShaun. He has a big goofy smile. Heโ€™s very happy with the joke heโ€™s telling.
	Lilly is facing right, standing up, and pouring coffee from a drip pot into a plain white mug. She looks frustrated by Rockyโ€™s antics.

ROCKY:		HEY, SINCE NONBINARY PEOPLE ARE TRANS, AND YOUโ€™RE A MAN, THEN WEโ€™RE BOTH TRANS MEN!

DESHAUN:		UH, MAYBE TECHNICALLY, BUT THATโ€™S CONFUSING.

LILLY:			ALRIGHT BOYS, GENDER 101 IS OVER. LETโ€™S MOVE ON TO TODAYโ€™S BRIEFING.

I'm a trans Muslim comics author in South America.

I'm having a Kickstarter for my comic book, Legendary X-Knights, about a rag-tag group of queer superheroes.

We're taking an unflinching look at gender and sexuality, as well as being action-packed.

Minneapolis police chief warns officers: Stop unlawful force by ICE or lose your job Chief Brian Oโ€™Hara says heโ€™ll fire city police officers if they donโ€™t intervene when immigration agents use unlawful force.

This is great. Very few people want to go to jail, get disbarred or die for this regime. Make them fight you. They will cave.

It is subjective, to every person. It reinforces in-group biases. It encourages constant argument on social media, and it keeps this topic alive.

The pros, though few, are hard to ignore - it takes no additional thought and is the closest to how English as a language naturally works.

A story of a 1930s uprising against British colonialism is key to understanding Gaza today โ€˜Palestine 36โ€™ is a potent reminder that the blueprint for Israel's depraved war crimes in Gaza were laid down by a British empire whose tyranny the Palestinians tried - and failed - to end

For the British, the impulse for liberation in Palestine had to be snuffed out at all costs

But the increasing brutality of British despotism simply fed an insurgency that by 1936 solidified into what westerners term a 3yr โ€œArab Revoltโ€ and Palestinians call their very โ€œFirst Intifadaโ€, or uprising

4/ Even worse on these officials account, it seems if the third view is correct, that was a reason to kill the survivors.

You read that right, and I am not exaggerating.โคต๏ธ

A shipwrecked person beckoning others to come rescue them is a basis for killing them.

3/ "But some lawmakers viewing the video rejected that interpretation. There were no other unknown aircraft or boats in visual range, and no other boats involved in drug trafficking could have rescued them."

And even worse, if I am understanding this logic correctly, ...

2/ What Adm. Bradley and Gen. Caine told Congress raises credibility concerns.

"The military officers briefing Congress on Thursday said the survivors could have been trying to beckon to other alleged drug traffickers in a plane or boat to come get them...."

But ... get this ...

NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"

Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue."
