As an 80s kid, before I learned a few things about how the world works, fear was very much one of the top feelings I got when near guys I knew were gay. Perhaps you youngsters got to skip that phase.
I never translated that to hate, though. I don’t exactly understand how that process even works. I’ve hated a few individual people in my life (100% because of what they did to me), and I feared none of them.
What were you promised? Like, owning a home? Home ownership rates in the US have been in the 63-70% range during all of 1966-2023, almost completely stable. Local purchasing power is #5 in the world for americans. What exactly is the problem over there?
We in Europe are having it much worse if you look at the data, especially now when Russia is being fucking Russia.
This seemed like a high quality analysis by a respectable academic, then the veryfirstsource I checked out turned out to be an amazing exaggeration. The article states
Tens of thousands are injured, and over 45% of homes in Gaza have been destroyed.
So I check the source, which is a paywalled WSJ article. Already the title of the article is
At Least 45% of Housing Units Destroyed or Damaged in Gaza
Destroyed ordamaged. Should I check the other sources for similar “mistakes”? Perhaps I just got lucky and found the only bullshit reference from this article written by a Harvard Law School PhD graduate?
Or perhaps Harvard Law Review was onto something when they didn’t publish it and I would be wasting my time looking through all of them instead of just trusting them on this.
I’m very comfortable calling the campaign against Gaza in the last few weeks genocide
But I guess you wanted me to explicitly say that “some left” are doing that. That’s fine. It is indeed a fringe portion of the left, and also not everybody on the right are hateful nazis.
I’m guessing you’re gonna say that there is no genocide if not all or most of the people are killed, because then their people have survived. But, genocide also incorporates cultural genocide.
No, I’m saying that population doesn’t grow during a genocide.
That’s the fate the Israeli state wants for Palestine. It is still technically genocide.
But… Palestinian Arabs are >20% of the population of Israel. You’re making absolutely no sense.
I feel like there’s some weird context here. Why does Stefanik want to get that “yes” and why are they reluctant to say it? Would it be a declaration of some university policy that would lead to suppressing the demonstrations or what?
