It all starts with fear - I'm sure you're absolutely right there.

I still can't quite wrap my head around how a people who suffered the worst genocide in history became complicit in the perpetration of another. I guess the whole "the abused later become the abusers" hypothesis really holds water.

Not recommended. The last country to attack the US still has a handful of citizens that glow in the dark.

"But are the flags that now bedeck our suburbs and estates patriotic or racist? It’s a nuanced notion unlikely to be adequately interrogated in a world where the main forum for public debate is an algorithmically amplified digital dogfighting pit presided over by a ketamine-cranked egomaniac."

Stewart Lee: The thugs have taken my flag. So I’ve taken theirs What do you do with a lot of cheap banners hanging from motorway bridges once you’ve torn them down?

β€œI’m old enough to remember when mainstream British politicians, who should know better, stirred up racial hatred as a path to power. You’re old enough to remember too because it was last Tuesday. And it was Robert Jenrick”

Cathartic anger at flag-flying racism.

How should we respond to these allegations? Via Signal, Truth Social or 747 with a bow on top?

He's right. Israel did not replicate the barbarism of the enemy. They multiplied it like a drunk Jesus with a basket of fish.

We've all heard that there is no free lunch.

Well, guess what?

There is no free 747 either.

Something tells me every boat, ship and yacht off the coast of Norway is loaded with fentanyl and headed to the US, suddenly.

Those Russia's-victory-is-inevitable guys have gone kinda quiet lately, especially since the images of 3 hour-long queues at gas stations in Russia began surfacing.

That's some mealy-mouthed bullshit, right there. Civilians are not "bearing the brunt of this conflict". They're being murdered by the IDF. They're the victims of a genocide perpetrated by a malevolent right-wing nationalistic government, headed by a war criminal.

Say it how it is.

What you've got here is the US Attorney General actively protecting pedophiles, plain and simple.

The Dems should not vote to reopen the government until the Epstein files are released.

β€œTwo years ago today, Hamas carried out a horrific war crime, killing more than 1,100 Israelis and kidnapping 250 more. I mourn these lives and pray for the safe return of every hostage still held and for every family whose lives were torn apart by these atrocities.

In the aftermath of that day, Prime Minister Netanyahu and the Israeli government launched a genocidal war: adeath toll that now far exceeds 67,000; with the Israeli military bombing homes, hospitals, and schools into rubble. Every day in Gaza has become a place where grief itself has run out of language. I mourn these lives and pray for the families that have been shattered. Our government has been complicit through it all.

This must end. The occupation and apartheid must end. Peace must be pursued through diplomacy, not war crimes, and our government must act to end these atrocities and hold those responsible to account.

These last two years have demonstrated the very worst of humanity. We must answer it by modeling the very best: a relentless pursuit of our higher ideals and an unwavering commitment to universal human rights.”

They blame another group. Maybe the Irish. Or Italians. Maybe eventually it’s everyone with brown eyes. You blame and persecute to avoid responsibility. The logical conclusion of Fascism is one angry bigot, alone on the planet Earth, screaming at the dirt to grow something.
