Nobody made Abdul focus entirely on a foreign war instead of the domestic Black unemployment rate (that increased thanks to Uncommitted).

can we stop with the "epstein class" bullshit. if you mean billionaires say billionaires. if you mean child predators say child predators. if you mean corrupt men in power say corrupt men in power. you sound like an edgy 13yo who just discovered communism trying to sound more politically educated than they actually are

failure-artist

if you mean jews, step off a cliff

makiruz

Unsurprisingly the OP is a zionist

There's nothing wrong with using a memetic joke name to describe billionaires, corrupt men in power and child predators, specially since the Venn diagram is a circle

Zionist take offense at this term because of Epstein and Maxwell's known ties to the Mossad, but acknowledging the millionaires were all tied to Epstein is not antisemitic

edithsweetithh

"stupid jews, how dare you assume you know more about antisemitism than i"

Given that Makiruz has spent the last five years or so actively hating on Jews--starting with a temper tantrum over being told no over appropriating Lilith for themselves--I'd say that they're quite the expert on Jew-hatred. Admittedly, from the person who is promoting Jew-hate, but you can't deny their expertise when they've been caught promoting the Protocols!

"describe billionaires, corrupt men in power and child predators, specially since the Venn diagram is a circle"

The vast, vast majority of child abuse is committed by parents, family members or those with regular access (neighbours, family friends, teachers)

And the vast majority of those are not also billionaires or corrupt men in power. So no, the venn diagram is not a circle.

But then you can't use your conspiracies to prop up all your antisemitic bullshit with "antizionist" scribbled over it in crayon

prismatic-bell

Also Epstein is just...a normal name. That happens to have been held by a terrible man.

Tell me, @makiruz, would you find it racist if I said we should refer to all terrorists as the Osama class? What if I suggested all antisemites should be the Adolf class, would you say "wait a minute, Adolf is a reasonably popular name in Germany and was even more so before the 1940s, that isn't fair to a lot of guys who have nothing to do with antisemitism"?

ive been trying for a while to find the right words to articulate the way goys, and especially the current-left goys, treat and talk the holocaust, how they see being a victim of this massive tragedy that destroyed over half a people as a mark of specialness, or privilege, how it grants you martyrdom for the cause of social justice- except when it's jews, of course, because then they're using their victimhood to manipulate people and are acting like it's only about them. and the way they fight over this whole idea of 'who suffered the most during the holocaust [except the jews]', as if the question of who is the biggest victim is a question of who takes the trophy for 'group to be most oppressed'. but anyway i just had the thought that goys seem to treat the holocaust as if it's the golden apple thrown by marx with the inscription 'to the most oppressed' going on. that's the best way i can describe it.

jewishgay4il

martyrdom is a great way to put it

Including these VERY important tags. Passed peer review.

the-orion-scribe

I half-wonder now if that's why these "leftists" are also pulling Holocaust inversion and making Palestinians the most oppressed and insisting the Gaza War is a genocide. Essentially playing in the hands of Hamas glorying violence and martyrdom

I think a lot of foreign relations discussions would be made vastly more productive if we all just switched to calling it “subsidized military vendor lock-in” instead of calling it “military aid”

Like. Yes, it’s also an exchange of value, sure, absolutely. It’s even an extremely worthwhile exchange of value if you’re a country like Ukraine. But so is lots of vendor lock-in?? Using Amazon cloud services is a good business decision because they are a good deal, and a bad business decision because they make it difficult for you to ever switch away from AWS. Both sides of that are true and real!

“How does sending this country free weapons do anything other than give them free weapons?” is a wild thing to have to keep explaining to people over and over again in a world where most people already understand that Google search is free because Google is trying to be an unassailable tech monopoly. The nuance here isn’t difficult to understand, and for most people it isn’t even a new concept, but for some reason as soon as you call it “military aid” everyone forgets that they’ve ever heard of such a thing and you have to start fresh and explain how it all works as though it’s Baby’s First Antitrust. There are real and substantive discussions to be had on the other side of “what even is the actual value proposition here”, and I’m getting kind of sick of always needing to start from zero for basically no reason

It's not merely that people falsely accuse the Jewish state of "genocide", but that the accusers enjoy doing it. It is a phenomenon known as "schadenfreude", a feeling of sadistic gratification that overrides rational thought.

Only with Israel do people enjoy schadenfreude when talking about alleged war crimes

"Six days after October 7th, a genocide studies professor declared Israel's response "textbook genocide" — before a single independent casualty count existed and week before an IDF soldier entered Gaza. A year later Amnesty admitted, on page 101 of its own report, that it was rejecting the ICJ's actual legal standard because that standard "would effectively preclude a finding of genocide." Internal staff at Amnesty revealed the report was called "the genocide report" before the research even began. None of this happened to Myanmar, Syria, or Sudan — all more brutal, all with clearer evidence of intent, all treated with years of caution before anyone reached for the word. Only Israel gets convicted first and investigated after.

The article "The Delicious Accusation of Genocide," argues the missing variable is Schadenfreude — Richard Landes decade-old term for a Western appetite, rooted in real guilt over real complicity in the Holocaust, for pretending to discover that the survivors turned out to be no better than the people who nearly finished them off. It's not just that the accusation is false. It's that it's enjoyable — which is why it fills city squares and op-ed pages, and why no amount of counter-evidence ever gets it retracted."

philosopherking1887

Not just Schadenfreude (an ordinary German word we all know), but "moral Schadenfreude" -- that's the term Richard Landes uses for the glee with which the accusation of genocide is turned by the close descendants of its perpetrators on the close descendants of its victims.

hazel2468

That last bit is important.

I think one of the moments it was clearest to me is when I saw someone I used to go to school with post a paragraphs-long screed about how the Jews- I mean Israel- is doing a genocide and how EVIL it is how amazingly uniquely EVIL this is...

And all I could remember was how, in grade school. This guy told me that as a "good German" he would put me "in an oven with the rest of the Jewish pigs" because "it is what my grandfather would have wanted".

And I think that just about sums up how I view everyone gleefully declaring that now the Jews are the genociders.

I used to think it was that these people were using Jews as an outlet for their white guilt.

Now I think that they are as gleeful in the face of our death as their close ancestors were in murdering us.

derinthescarletpescatarian

I know this is a humorous exaggeration designed to show how silly it is to deny medication and mobility/quality of life aids to disabled people by applying the argument to something silly in a way that nobody would ever do but... unfortunately I have heard people say this. I've heard people suggest that people with minor sight problems shouldn't get glasses, and people needing to move to a stronger prescription should do it and should stay on as light a prescription as they can use and still function, because the glasses will "weaken their eyes" and make their eyesight worse (which is bullshit). People will pull this ableist bullshit on glasses wearers, too.

unfortunately no matter how much you try to parody ableism, some completely genuine asshole out there already has you beat.

reminds me of the time Rage Against the Machine were vying for Christmas Number 1 (british public was doing a little trolling) so the BBC had to let them come on and play 'Killing In the Name Of' live on the breakfast show, and they asked them not to swear and they swore

Idk girl, when I took the tree surgeon license exam, there were more than one or two questions, so I think it might be more complicated than that.

And I have a 50+ year old native oak tree that has to come down soon because the previous homeowners never dealt with a girdling branch.

moggiepillar

Oh she’s stupid stupid. Okay then.

A bunch of these people are "Anprim for thee, TV for me"

pusheenthenerdcat

what does she think "traditional indigenous building practices" are? because i learnt how to pull the bark off a cedar (to weave fabric out of) from an indigenous guy and i suspect thats a bit more disruptive to the tree than a small branch

hazel2468

She's a racist who thinks that "indigenous" means "magical mystical brown person who thinks everything is maaaagical and spiiiritual and therefore that means they live in maaagic harmony with nature and never do things like use natural resources around them, no, they use Indian Magics to build things and they're so special and if I ever encounter a Native/indigenous person who doesn't fit my mold I am going to turn into the most bigoted racist person you have ever seen".

Like. I've encountered these exact people so many times. She thinks Magic Brown Person is what indigenous means instead of like. You know. Actual living breathing real person who is a person.

nerianasims

Gah I'm reminded of the idiot who said an indigenous person would never harm a tree.

sweaterkittensahoy

In 2020 when the Gorge wildfire was fucking up Oregon, I posted on twitter how terrible I felt for all the people whose homes were lost to that fire.

I had a woman come back at me with "OMG but the TREES."

And my reply was basically, "Trees regrow. People's entire lives are gone."

She would NOT stop coming back with "But we lost trees!"

I feel like her and Miss racist "It's your fault for building a house" might be related.

(Also, does Miss racist understand trees will also fuck up "native" houses? Like, trees aren't like "Oh, this tree was my cousin, so I won't fuck it up.")

shofarsogood

Indigenous people are the folks who traditionally practiced maintenance forest fires to prevent massive forest fires. There was significant effort in caring for the trees, and part of that means cutting down infected, rotten, or dead trees. Arguably, the current refusal to cut down interviews trees is what led to the spread of several invasive tree parasites, like borers or mistletoe.

prismatic-bell

We have a tree in our front yard the landlord refuses to tear out and replace even though it is, functionally, dead. It has a parasitic fungus. All that's left now is slow succumbing.

Because he's a fucking cheapskate who won't replace it, we've lost three HUGE branches (we're talking as big around as my thigh and I am not a small person), one of which was big enough IT COVERED THE ENTIRE DRIVEWAY.

We would like to have a nice, healthy tree! We do not have that! And our tree is probably making things worse for the neighbors!

Sometimes you gotta cut one! That's just how it is!!!

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio), a close Trump ally, announced Thursday that he will introduce legislation to sanction Canada and Canadian officials over the huge wildfires that have poured smoke and haze across the United States, creating hazardous air-quality conditions. “I’ll be introducing a bill next week to sanction Canada and the responsible Canadian government officials for this atrocity,” Moreno posted on social media. The Ohio Republican reposted an image of a deserted boulevard in Cleveland with buildings shrouded in haze.

Marc Elias is an election attorney, creator of the Elias Law Group and founder of Democracy Docket, who oversaw the state election lawsuits that ensured Trump couldn’t steal the 2020 election (he won all but one case). He has since been more responsible for wins against Trump in court than anybody and is the primary reason Trump hasn’t gotten the voting records from the states before the midterms. He has done the done the absolute most to keep Trump from going full dictator.

This works best if you keep windows closed.

Another design is using 2 20x25x1 filters, taping them to the sides of the box fan and then to each other so they sort of make a triangle, then cutting cardboard to make a top and bottom to the triangle.

This was discovered as a more effective design during the 2020 US west coast fires.

A better more efficient and odor eliminating homemade air purifier than just taping a 20x20x1 filter to a box fan. Sometimes you need to

If you live on the west coast of the United States, fire season is coming and this is vital.

turtlesandfrogs

We’ve been using one, and they’re great. Might try to make the double filter version this year.

objectconstancy

theyve been doing a bunch of studies on this during the pandemic and this design is best! 4 filters and a shroud to optimize flow rate.

I’ve personally used both the flat single-filter version AND the triangular two-filter version, and based on subjective personal experience I would argue that the benefits from the second filter, both in terms of airflow and filtration, are absolutely worth it. If you need a makeshift air filter and you have two filters to work with, build the triangle (if not the box, i have no idea how good that one works but based on the info here i presume it’s a fair bit better.)

This trick works. We use it in my house.

We literally built one this morning because the air quality had gotten so bad from all the wildfire smoke coming in from Canada (and we live closer to NYC ffs). I was so sick when I woke up this morning and my eyes were red and irritated and itchy. My mouth and throat felt constantly dry despite being properly hydrated. I was constantly sneezing.

Our cube has only been running for about five hours. My mouth no longer feels dry. My eyes are mostly back to normal. Sneezing has been greatly reduced. I’m still sick and that might take a while, but this is a HUGE improvement. The whole cube costs less than $100 to make and that included getting the materials delivered through Door Dash.

Build yourself a cube or whatever variation is necessary for your budget/living space. It will make a difference, I promise.
