I’m hoping we get to see some burgumentum. His name is so ridiculous I want him to stick around

Why would Israel make up a fake phone call if they didn’t do it? Use some critical thinking

I don’t understand why your bloodthirst is so strong you feel the need to defend Israel’s genocidal actions. You can just say nothing you know?

Liberia has the exact same problem as Israel. There were already people living there. To be done correctly I think descendants of enslaved Africans would deserve a homeland carved out of the US, Brazil, etc. with the caveat that indigenous peoples of those regions would also have full rights in these hypothetical countries

Edit: this would be similar to the idea that Israel should have been carved out of Germany/Austria but more complicated due the existence of righteous and just indigenous struggles in the americas and Caribbean

I’m going to quibble with your claim that Israel is a safe haven for Jews. This attack should have ended this claim forever. There is no way Jewish people are safer in Israel than they would be in the us, Canada, the uk, France, Germany, etc.

Secondly, why do Jews need a homeland to be safe? No other group that has been attacked through history ever has been supported in creating an ethnostate in order to protect them. Where is the demand for Roma to have a state to protect that from racism in Europe? Where are the calls to give the descendants of enslaved Africans to be given a state they can control in order to be protected?

Antisemitism is a real problem, and as leftists we must always call it out just as we do for any other form of oppression. I will continue to my best at this as well, and pretty much agree with the specific arguments you make in the rest of your post

Absolutely monstrous. Death to Israel, the us and every country continuing to support this genocidal regime

I don’t know what hamas’ strategy is. I will say this attack will absolutely make settlers second guess whether they want to leave their comfortable life in Brooklyn to set up a new life on stolen land. Is that a good enough reason? I don’t know for sure, but to pretend that this is completely pointless violence is bullshit

Israel exists to be a permanent aircraft carrier for the US, as admitted by the current American President, but go off on how it’s actually its own country 🙄

Targeting tourists at a rave on stolen land next to an open air prison that holds the rightful stewards of that land is ok

I want to give you props for asking a genuine question and learning from it, but I also have some gentle criticism to give. You referred to TomboyShulk as “they” a couple of times in your post. It’s good etiquette to try to use people preferred pronouns, so in this case you should use “she” instead of they.

We’re pretty serious about this here since one of the core values of hexbear is being aggressively pro-trans. Please don’t take this criticism as an attack though, and please continue to ask any questions you have. We’ve got tons of smart people that can help explain anything else relating to the trans experience

It’s not like anything good will come out of a Republican led house. Plus it makes America look like more of a joke. I don’t see any downside to this

He’s just out as speaker, it won’t affect the seat count. Still should be funny to watch the republicans try to elect a replacement. Plus, no legislation for a while which is a win in my book
