  • do you prefer a level headed voice trying to minimize palestinian casualties, or would you prefer Israel get the all-clear to steamroll Gaza indiscriminately, likely annexing it wholesale? Very clear choices.

    Would greatly prefer the former, but unfortunately no such candidate was on the stage.

    There was one guy lying about whether Israel wants to end the war while sidestepping the fact that he’s the one supplying the weapons and political cover.

    And then there was the guy telling the truth for the first time in years by pointing out that Israel very much DO want to keep the hostilities going…and then bemoaning that the other war criminal on the stage wasn’t being gleefully bloodthirsty in public about it.

    Definitely the stupidest timeline 🤦



  • Fun fact: the existence of atrocity factories like CIA and the US military doesn’t mean that benevolent public agencies, institutions, and social programs don’t exist.

    Just like you being against murdering innocents abroad and also against paying your fair share to help protect them domestically, the US government contains both good and evil parts.

    Unlike you, though, millions of people would not be able to survive without the good that government does.





  • Nope. The location of the factories was never the point.

    The point is what the effects of tariffs would be: they would help the bottom line of Western competitors and nothing else at the expense of Chinese workers and German consumers. It wouldn’t help Chinese slaves in any way.

    THAT’S the point. THAT’S what matters.

    It seems whatever one says, no matter if evidence proofs otherwise

    Dude. You haven’t presented any evidence. You have CLAIMED that there is a car factory in Xinjiang and, rather than waste a bunch of time and energy confirming or disproving your claim, which is irrelevant to tariffs, I reiterated the important part.

    continuing with your false narrative and spreading your opinion

    I’m not making any false claims (with the possible exception of mistakenly thinking that there’s no car factories in Xinjiang) and the fact that the ones paying for the tariffs would be Germans buying more expensive cars as well as Chinese workers losing their jobs as their employers lose market share is just that: a fact. NOT an opinion.

    To quote yourself to yourself, your points in your statement above are false again.

    I don’t get why people sing in the shower… The acoustics are terrible

    The opposite is famously the case, especially for deep voices.

    The main reason people sing in the shower is because it is a time when they are relaxed and their mind is free from all inhibitions. Additionally, the acoustics in most bathrooms are perfect for singing, as the sound reverberates and resonates well.

  • What news station hasn’t lied before?

    There’s a gigantic difference between

    A) sometimes accidentally saying something untrue due to sloppy work and then issuing a retraction when you find out or someone finds out for you

    B) sometimes accidentally or deliberately saying something untrue due to editorial bias and then issuing a retraction

    C) Having a deliberate strategy of lying on purpose to further an agenda while constantly accusing everyone else of the same

    Almost all of the news outlets in the world do A and B, rarely in most cases.

    Faux News have been doing C all day every day since 1996.
