MerXNT Dad, I’m a MerXNT!

Lotta people are saying he wasn’t even born here. All I’m asking is if he IS a real American, why haven’t we seen his birth certificate? Just asking questions here…

Gotta love the “everyone I disagree with is a shill/bootlicker” playbook.

And my local mosque isn’t the sole representation for all Muslims, but if I falsely claimed they advocated rape, I’d be being pretty bigoted.

At least be consistent; you got annoyed when I pointed out that the articles you posted show that rape is absolutely not an Israeli government position. But this comment takes the opposite tack.

As you grow up, hopefully you’ll learn that reality is a thing and not just whatever suits the argument at hand.

Bye.

And to your larger point, you are welcome to create your own server or community and allow whomever to say whatever they’d like, regardless of how bigoted or incorrect they might be!

As many have said, this isn’t a fediverse problem, nor is it a suggestion to improve the fediverse, this is a you complaining about mods doing what the commubity expects of them.

Have a good night.

So if someone commits a crime, fair to accuse them of all crimes?

That part is still claiming you made a factual claim. And that part is still incorrect.

So, I noted that it is wildly inaccurate and far from a factual claim.

You can’t posit something reprehensible, a few paragraphs later decide you might be wrong and then be annoyed when people correct your original claim.

Well, you’re arguing that there’s some wider conspiracy etc. And in public discourse, ehhhhhh it’s more a very tricky line to walk.

But if you’re not talking in response to why this person has their comment removed, then it doesn’t seem particularly relevant.

It reminds me of when people are talking about the latest police killing of an unarmed Black man and a right winger comes in to talk about Black on Black violence statistics, not particularly relevant and it feels like they’re doing it to demonize the group in question.

You had multiple comments, I responded one at a time. In future, I’d just delete or edit the original. I’m not going to track down and check each thread you may have participated in etc.

Because I don’t think it’s cool to accuse the Israeli government of having a policy of rape? Jesus, get a grip kid.

You know, come to think of it, maybe if I think a group is doing things with which I disagree, I ought to be able to make up whatever other offenses too. It’s like when women who have abortions become racist and transphobic, which is why abortion should be prohibited. /s

Read the first paragraph of the first link you submitted “An Israeli Defense Forces officer who has been imprisoned since 2017 for multiple sexual offenses, including the rape of…”

In other words, the Israeli defence force arrested the guy for rape.

If you actually have news that indicates rape is a government policy, then post the article and see what happens.

But, one of the tried and tested approaches for right wing trolling is to lobby a whole bunch of accusations with some nonsense ina semi related thread and force everyone else to go and debunk them ad nauseum, it’s not particularly enjoyable and is exactly why we have moderators.

Read the comment again, closely. Arguing the Israeli government has a policy of rape is pretty gross.

Ehhh, accusing the Israeli government of having a policy of rape is pretty out there and kind of indistinguishable from general anti semitism. Fwiw, I’d have removed it too.

Steven Hawking? If you watched Chappelle’s latest special, this one is even more odd.

Red, easily.

Yeah, some childhood stuff would suck but you could probably skip a good few grades. As you already (hopefully) know how to socialize by now, a lot of the childhood friend stuff seems pretty optional.

Dating would be really tricky through the early teenage years as I don’t know how I’d feel about girls my own physical age at that point.

Because I’m relatively older and would have insane future knowledge, I could absolutely rock in stocks and have enough money to actually effect change. (Eg, singelhandedly fund a massive Democrat turnout machine in the rustbelt for 2016.)

The hard part would be somehow connecting with my current group of friends whom I love to death and wouldn’t want to lose. They are the only thing that makes the blue pill tempting.

“But I read a book written by one of the few people who were privileged enough to read and write, and things didn’t seem so bad!”

Not processing our waste water leads to very local consequences, which is we process it. Adding to climate change is a global problem, any one country’s actions have relatively modest effects. So we don’t invest to stop it.

I’m not saying it’s a good thing. But it is a serious thing so we should be clear on the causes etc.

The reason we don’t use renewables is that fossil fuels are much cheaper.

If one country goes alone in developing them, they and their citizens pay more for a very marginal benefit.

This is a collective action problem, individual countries acting by themselves aren’t going to solve it.

It plans to open 900 new stores in the U.S. and 1,900 in some of its bigger international markets like Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom and Australia. The company said it plans another 7,000 stores in other international markets; more than half of those would be in China.

Somewhat ironically, this actually seems like a result of increased living conditions in developing countries.

I also wonder how much of the first world growth is because previously spots without enough foot traffic are now viable with the rise of mcdelivery…
