There's too much to fully unpack for me here considering my own time. Quite frankly I'm flabbergasted at the lack of knowledge what makes a democracy ...

Sure. Not sure how this relates to what I said. Reading the UN Watch she's used tactics to get what she wanted. I think they were stupid because inten...

I believe that a state favouring one religion above others is inherently discriminatory and should progress into an actual democracy instead of the Ap...

I don't hate Israel. I'm anti- zionist. As to comparing Israel to other western countries. How many of those countries are currently committing genoci...

Yes, it's unfortunately in the job description and I can't offload it unto someone else. :cry:
June 12, 2024 at 13:46
That's just a variation on the tu quoque fallacy. Even if other people were worse, it doesn't make this acceptable. However, the figures are also fals...

Like father like son? A roadmap to genocide: Gilad in 2012: ‘We need to flatten entire neighbourhoods in Gaza. Flatten all of Gaza. The Americans didn...

Only partially right. She needs to be Christina, because christian girls have never been taught what not to do in bed.

Nature has an excellent process for this; it's called attraction. It's worked for millions of years. If you're attracted to him/her, go for it. If not...

I stand corrected. Thanks.
June 07, 2024 at 17:20
I see you added things after I posted. Normally you indicate that by adding "edit" to be clear and fair to your interlocutors. Prosecuting criminals i...

a leftist talking point would be: capitalism is bad and should be replaced with socialism. Pointing out facts isn't. You're so dumb you think everythi...

I said attempt. And no, it's not hysterical. But nice try at downplaying. Does it make you sleep better? Again, only dumb Americans don't take J6 seri...

A riot is not an attempt to overthrow a government. The fact you're trying to equate them underlines the rot Wayfarer is pointing to. Bringing up Babb...

Wet thumb and index finger and rub them together with the garbage bag opening between them. It will open in a jiffy.

Of course it isn't. There's Ethiopian Jews, Ashkenazi, Sephardic, Mizrahi Jews, which are distinct ethnicities. Plenty of discrimination between those...

:rofl: Jesus Christ that's funny.
June 05, 2024 at 19:48
It's not my definition. The Israeli supreme Court has confirmed being Jewish is a religious claim. You can convert to Judaism and obtain all sorts of ...
June 05, 2024 at 19:14
It's religious because Judaism is a religion and the passing of jewishness via the mother a religious fantasy.
June 05, 2024 at 18:58
You really need to expound on that because I have no clue how to interpret that sentence!
June 05, 2024 at 13:24
Which is why the Hippocratic oath and triage have nothing to do with morality either but with survivability of the patient irrespective of moral consi...
June 05, 2024 at 10:49
Of course there's a moral obligations to help others but when helping means murdering others... I'm totally awesome but not so awesome to decide who g...
June 05, 2024 at 08:55
Having read the recent replies, I still think the trolley problem isn't useful at all and is morally irrelevant. We need agency as a requirement for c...

Well, that comment certainly didn't age well. Ouch. :chin:
June 05, 2024 at 08:06
I just read the NY piece. Jaw dropping on various levels. I think the most important thing we (the Dutch) need to think about it how to include the ri...

It's whatever made up stories Jews want to believe in; it just isn't reality.
June 05, 2024 at 06:16
You're the gift that keeps on giving. How stupid are you when you don't address what I actually say and raise straw men al the time? I'm speaking in y...
June 05, 2024 at 05:10
Ancestral home means nothing because it's a religious claim. As is the claim to be descendant from original Israelites, which, with 10% intermarriage,...
June 05, 2024 at 04:32
I can see why you thought that was a reply to you but your post simply reminded me of my own big worry that the next avian flu pandemic seems to be ri...
June 04, 2024 at 21:40
It's not their ancestral homeland. That's an idiotic religious claim that anybody that isn't a Jew doesn't recognise. And it would be great if you'd r...

Do you have sympathy for a criminal when the victim hurts him? Most people don't. Because that's what you're asking. It's not dehumanizing at all; it'...

Waiting for the next avian flu with all the cows infected in the USA. We can rename this thread to "avian flu" so it stays relevant.

There's the blank vote, the no vote, the manual write in of another candidate as well. Take your pick if you can't handle the revolution.
June 03, 2024 at 16:44
Nothing like triage either. Triage is merely concerned with who has the highest chance of survival.
June 03, 2024 at 15:47
I vote revolution. Off with their heads.
June 03, 2024 at 15:46
I think this problem is morally irrelevant. This is a game, where the game master has constrained your moral agency to a binary choice of bad outcomes...
June 03, 2024 at 13:50
Fallacious reasoning again. In this case an argument from ignorance. You're assuming other conflicts were fought correctly and we know the majority we...
June 03, 2024 at 09:40
Oh for fucks sake. It's disproportionate, targets civilians etc. You know, all of the things I've consistently said from the beginning.

https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2023/11/mitt-romney-retiring-senate-trump-mcconnell/675306/ I thought this was interesting.
June 03, 2024 at 06:02
It is as a reply to atrocities by Israel. "but Hamas does bad things too" is a fallacy to argue for the permissibility of Israeli crimes, which you - ...
June 03, 2024 at 05:25
Oh, I could've said tu quoque is a fallacy if that makes you happier.
June 02, 2024 at 21:29
What do you make of your reflex to deflect every criticism of Israel? Starvation is slow. At this time it probably is 2 per 10,000 per day.
June 02, 2024 at 19:00
This is such a bonkers reply. That Israel is starving Palestinians in Gaza Isn't a rumour. Trying to equate that fact with rumours nobody even mention...
June 02, 2024 at 17:59
I keep hoping for interesting viewpoints and comments from you but I'm disappointed as well. Also, institutionalised racism isn't a plot.

Oohhh... An attempt at ridicule because the facts speak for themselves. Maybe read Israeli newspapers. Speaking of which: https://www.haaretz.com/isra...
June 01, 2024 at 06:44
Which means exactly nothing. A person lies 60% of the time but when he spoke to you he spoke the truth. OMG! Maybe learn how statistics work instead o...
