Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
Young people invoking the idea ¨from the river to the sea¨. Looks like Prime Minister Netanyahu´s son is no different: https://www.instagram.com/yair_netanyahu/?hl=en Well....sort of. He's saying, "Let's keep the country that is already there." instead of saying, "Let's throw out the...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
I'm optimistic that human society will evolve after a slew of old man relinquish their cold grip on power by dying. I object to the elderly getting free respect. Some old people have been assholes all their lives. Why respect that length ? I look at the youth of the world and don't see much cause f...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
IDF killed three hostages by "friendly fire" today. Apparently, the hostages were separated from their captors and were alone on the streets. It is not known if they escaped or were released. One way or another they were on the streets and now they are dead. I have a feeling that the IDF i...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
I doubt exressing an unpopular opinion at a baseball game will get you fired. Unless it is then amplified wildly on social media. Generally true, but a lot of employers are including behaviour outside of work as a disciplinary matter nowadays. If you're seen waving a Nazi flag, you're probably goin...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
It's not so much that hate speech is being penalized in the USA today. It's just the wrong kind of hate speech that is penalized. The reference to the "wrong kind of hate speech" implies that there is a "right kind of hate speech" and that's not something I can get on board with...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
Inevitably, we americans are cajoled into embracing the hate radiating from the seats of power, for the sake of cheerleading the next pointless war. Bush 2 certainly employed hate speech and lies to denigrate the Iraqi's enough that otherwise rational humans were afraid to speak out against it. Ain...

Re: A very depressing video from Gaza
The president of the University of Pennsylvania resigned after some congressional testimony where she refused to say that calls for genocide would violate the university speech code. (Or whatever they called it.) What a bizarre story. First of all, why the hell is there a speech code? (or whatever t...

Re: war
That should speak volumes regarding the charade of elections. A vote is a vote for war. Personally, I'm going to keep voting. I agree with the comment, attributed to Winston Churchill, that democracy is the worst form of government, except for all of the others. On the other hand, I certainly agree...
