I'm so glad to be goysplained about the actual definition of Zionism.

props to TTRPG for taking a stand against genocide, and standing firm on it. absolutely nothing comes from the far more common mealy-mouthed both-sides nonsense except defense of a murderous status quo

look at what was quoted in the OP:

   

The organizers also stated that Zionists (specifically people who refuse to acknowledge the persecution of Palestinians by the Israeli government or the illegal settlements in the West Bank) would also not be eligible as nominees

there is zero ambiguity in the parameters the organizers laid out here , making this derail particularly pointless

Isn't part of the issue that what was quoted by the OP is not what was in the initial Tweet, which is also in the OP?

Zero ambiguity? You're quoting the OP. Not what is actually in the announcement. The first tweet makes no mention of genocide, Palestine or Gaza. Nor does the second. It's not until the 3rd which came 14 days later. Maybe there was more to begin with, but it wasn't in the OP and this is what people were going off.

Sounds like BS posturing to avoid a new trial. How would they even know that

Read’s attorney Alan Jackson also submitted an affidavit detailing how he had been contacted directly by a juror, and Read’s attorney David Yannetti submitted one in which he said that he had been contacted by two individuals who had received information “from two distinct jurors.”

There is probably a good conversation to be had about how tourism affects the locals of a city. But you aren't going to get that on Resetera. I doubt most of them have traveled anywhere outside of their state let alone country.

Why travel why you can buy a 4k tv?

[Nintex]

To be fair to ResetEra CNN is certainly in the process of throwing Biden under the bus

[Gameboy Nostalgia]

Because it's HER TURN and it's the clinton news network.

[nachobro]

Not too long ago it was bannable to say Biden was cooked mentally, now there's a mod I never saw before, Kaitos, posting nonstop about how everyone knew all along. So why was it bannable to point out something everyone supposedly knew?

Is Jeronimo meant to be a Native American character or was the name just random? My ex-girlfriend is Abenaki (and another ex is Purepecha) and I like looking at how much effort video games do to depict American Indians (often a lot do a really bad job).

Is this nepenthe's theme song?

This is quite a bit better than I expected. The lyrics don't make any sense and the vocals aren't really great, but compared to most of the "music" I see trans Twitter promote I enjoyed this. Vaguely interested in seeing if the whole album avoids trash. 

It's got a good beat and you can dance to it:

[benji]

They aren't being invited to come by the people of Barcelona. Corporations and politicians are not acting in their interests.

It is their fault. They are not entitled to travel to those places. This attitude is what is going to make things worse.

But by all means, tell Native folks who are displaced by overtourism that it's not the tourist's fault. It'll go over really well.

Do you believe that folks are entitled to traveling to a place? If so, why?

I'm talking about overtourism. You can pretend the individuals have no agency if you want but that attitude will just lead to more resentment towards tourists.

I've no problem with you disagreeing with me. But just don't expect local populations to take kindly to folks feeling entitled to be there. That's not my fault either.

Regular ass folks are partially responsible for some of societies ills, yeah. Just being a regular ass person doesn't mean you have no agency or blame for things. Doesn't mean they are solely to blame nor are they to blame for everything.

Presumably if people did not want tourists to come to Barcelona they would enact some laws to prevent it. They might engage in some sort of campaign to say that their money isn't welcome there. They might withdraw from the EU.

Considering none of these things are true and I'm not even going to look but will assume there's all kinds of government tourism programs regarding Barcelona (it did host an Olympics) it seems like you're arguing that a small minority should be able to impoverish the entire community for any reason it wishes.

I wanted to highlight, I realized some months ago now, after 40 years of thinking I was quite introspective, that I am trans, and I absolutely owe that to all the trans creators and the like that are out there on socials being themselves and advocating for themselves. Ironically, I might not have realized as soon (or at all) if this fascist crusade hadn't been going on and making so many people talk about it so much more.

You sound like an easily swayed idiot.

It's pretty simple, chud. It was something bad people were saying so wrong and false, now the good guys are saying it so it's not something you should be dismissing concerns about.

Vale twohearts. Misunderstood genius.

Also, I meant to comment on this ages ago, but the chances of meeting not one, but two, native American people in Australia are very low. The vast majority of Latin Americans in Australia are upper middle class latinos from Colombia, Chile etc and who have gone through the Education > Migration path. The chances this absolute shut-in has met anyone of Native American blood in person is very low, the chances of him having two Native American exes is virtually zero. These were obviously discord relationships.

Absolutely NOT a social contagion. Totally normal to only start having trans feelings after interacting with the trans mafia online and only after excluding all of your famiy and friends at the behest of the cult community.

Normal-minded folks always get the short end of the straw in these cases because these man-babies can't just ignore something that's not for them without letting everyone know how shitty they are.

the cynical weaponization of ageism and ableism to mute any legitimate criticism of Biden's mental acuity might break me.

Biden is staying in? Alright. I'm not going to whine. I'm going to get to work. I recently CC'd friends and family a copy of the Lincoln Projects video on Project 2025.

I did the same for my co workers in the office. I've been answering questions all day. Don't give up. We have to put in the work.

We have four months.

We still have time to fight. Talk to your friends about Trump's plan. Explain to them that the cost of goods will go up, because of his economic policies.

I'm in the process of creating flyers with a list of policies being implemented in Project 2025. I will be handing them out at a party this weekend. I'm going to be there like, "I don't mean to spoil the mood, but you all need to read this." lol

I tell you what boggles my mind, it can't be that hard to assassinate a single 70 year old man. I wish it would happen already

[benji]

1. Surrender.
2. Assassinate Putin after his security slackens with war over.
3. Ukraine revolts to restore independence.
 

I feel like something similar to this happened once before in Slavic history.

Checking in on donald.win MAGA Twitter Elon's retweets:

" I'm proud to be—as I said, the first vice president—first black woman to serve with a black President"
- Joe Biden 7/4/2024

This isn't going to stop. He'll continue to do this and it'll likely only get worse.

Damn, I had seen most of those clips, but the one from two years ago where he's asking where a Representative was at a speech, but the Rep. had died six weeks prior in a car crash with her staffers, and to whom he had written a condolences for.... that does not look so good, especially with the current context. Biden and gaffes are like chocolate and peanut butter so it makes it extra hard to figure out, but that kind of thing feels like more than a gaffe. But who knows, we're left to take Biden's word.

Like I've said it before if he's like this right now what will he be like in the middle of his next term when he's 83-86

The clips are damning and are not even selectively chosen, something I'm sure the detractors will try to point out. These are gaffes that are public, numerous, and only increasing in frequency. Even looking at clips from a couple of years back Biden didn't sound this bad. Biden's age has been a topic for some time and there's a real chance the "sharp as a tack" quotes from back when they were being made were largely true even back then. The decline seems like it's coming on quick and it's not something especially unique to Biden, this is just what an octogenarian brain does.
