Genuinely the kind of woman I’d be too nervous to approach at a bar (also respectfully she was wearing the shit out of that wedding dress)

“I’m not the one deforesting the amazon but I really love teak furniture, so I’M not the one hurting anybody by buying it”

“Superyachts aren’t expensive, Gaben owns several”

Yep, definitely just a schizo right wing story and has no basis in reality.

Absolutely no evidence to suggest that the virus (accidentally or otherwise) originated as a gain of function experiment in a lab.

Besides that, my main point is that the democratic administration downplayed the ongoing pandemic to protect moneyed interests, and not as a result of actual eradication of the virus.

TO CLARIFY: I do not support the current administration IN ANY WAY. Denying wrongdoing on the part of the democrats, however, is either wilfully ignorant or naive at best.

A lot of surface area up there to soak up that heat, and no ocean currents to drag any of it away (when the AMOC isn’t collapsing like it is now)

Perkele

Other than, you know, funding and defending a genocide, declaring that the most contagious neurological and immune compromising viruses to have ever been made in a lab was ‘over’ because billionaires were losing too much money.

So they’re admitting it’s a genocide

Have a look at the Vela incident.

They don’t just have nukes, they’re one of a select few countries that refuse to sign the nonproliferation act, and refuse any inspection into how many they have.

I swear if someone approaches me with these glasses they’re going to find out just how fragile those frames are.

“Palestine did not exist before the 1930s”

1917 In November (October on the Julian calendar), the Bolsheviks seize power and Russia makes preparations to withdraw from the war. That same month, Britain issues the Balfour Declaration. In December, the British Army led by General Allenby marches victoriously into Jerusalem. Palestine is placed under British military occupation (1917–20). It then had a population of 688,957 Arabs (including Christians, Muslims and other non-Jewish minorities) and a population of 58,728 Jews.

1922 The Council of the League of Nations agrees to the text of the British Mandate of Palestine. The Palestine Order-in-Council of 1 September separates Palestine from the Emirate of Transjordan, which is established to the east of the River Jordan. The Colonial Secretary, Winston Churchill, in a statement on British policy rejects the claim that Palestine was to become ‘as Jewish as England is English’. He declares: ‘His Majesty’s Government regard any such expectation as impracticable and have no such aim in view.’ He adds that: ‘the status of all citizens of Palestine in the eye of the law shall be Palestinian, and it has never been intended that they, or any section of them, should possess any other juridical status. In an exchange of correspondence with the Palestine Arab delegation, Churchill recognizes ‘the people of Palestine’, specifically referring to Palestine’s Arab community.

1948 Civil war breaks out on a wider scale in Palestine. In March, the US concludes that partition is unworkable and reverses its policy. It declares itself in favor of a UN Trusteeship for Palestine in a single unitary state. A UN Trusteeship Agreement is subsequently drafted. The Jewish Agency condemns it, goes on the offensive and avows to proclaim a Hebrew Republic on 16 May. In April, the Haganah (Jewish paramilitary), implements the Plan Dalet. Thirteen military operations follow, eight of which are beyond the boundaries set out for the Arab state in the UN Partition Plan. On 11 April, a massacre is perpetrated by the Irgun with the support of the Haganah in the Palestinian Arab village of Deir Yassin, near Jerusalem. By May, the Zionists have conquered Jaffa (which was supposed to be part of the Arab state as envisaged in the UN Partition Plan) and Haifa, causing their Arab populations to flee to secure ground. At midnight on 14/15 May the last British High Commissioner in Palestine terminates the Mandate and departs Haifa. The Yishuv concomitantly proclaims the establishment of the state of Israel. By this time, over 350,000 Palestinian Arabs have been evicted from their homes. The Arab Legion, commanded by British officers, enters Palestine on the pretext that it is defending the population of Palestine from further attacks by the Haganah and the Irgun (Zionist paramilitary). It is supported by troops from Lebanon, Syria, Egypt and Iraq. The fighting escalates. In July, the Haganah captures Lydda, Ramle and Nazareth expelling its Arab populations. By the time hostilities come to an end some 750,000 Palestinian Arabs and 17,000 Jews are displaced by the fighting. In December, the UN General Assembly passes a resolution providing that: ‘the refugees wishing to return to their homes and live at peace with their neighbors should be permitted to do so at the earliest practicable date, and that compensation should be paid for the property of those choosing not to return and for loss of or damage to property which, under principles of international law or in equity, should be made good by the Governments or authorities responsible.

No, fascist. It’s up to Palestine. The country that existed before the 1930s. The country where people of multiple religions, Muslim, Christian and Jewish peacefully lived together until Churchill and the brits decided (under pressure from political groups) to sell land they didn’t own to a group with no claim to it.

It’s not up to the people killing civilians, it’s not up to Europe, its not up to the US, it is and has always been Palestine.

Almost like religious extremism is bad in every case
