Shit, it’s the problem over there too…
They literally all worship the same God but too many people are still wanting to kill each other over the details
It was true when Emo Phillips said it, it’s still true today.

Even if one religion dominates large sections of the globe, over time it will fracture and create conflict again.
The arrival of the USS Theodore Roosevelt strike group in Busan came a day after South Korea summoned the Russian ambassador to protest a major deal between Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un this week.
The agreement pledges mutual defense assistance in the event of war. South Korea says the deal poses a threat to its security and warned that it could consider sending arms to Ukraine to help fight off the Russian invasion as a response — a move that would surely ruin its relations with Moscow.
Hezbollah is also part of the 4+1 treaty involving other Middle East countries and Russia. And Israel is ramping up attacks against them. Russia signing with NK could draw them into that too.

Russia is using Israel to threaten WW3. They’ll likely push for parts of Ukraine in exchange to giving Israel land from its Middle East allies.
“I wish that he would be a statesman and do what is right for Israel. We all love Israel,” former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said recently on CNN about Netanyahu. “We need to help them and not have him stand in the way of that for such a long time.”
She added, “I think it’s going to invite more of what we have seen in terms of discontent among our own.”
We don’t “all love Israel”.
It’s incredibly concerning leadership understands this hurts the party but won’t even do the right thing for the wrong reasons.
Hell, it’s not even for the wrong reasons. As they keep saying, it’s vital that we stop republicans. But for some reason that’s not enough of a reason to stop supporting genocidal maniacs threatening WW3
There is a very real chance that Biden’s unquestioning support of Israel will lead to WW3.
Bibi knows whatever happens, Biden will always have his back. He can’t get that loyalty from any other US president, he’s counting on every other country recognizing that, but with the way Israel is acting they all assume Israel won’t stop with their current victims.
It’s stand together now, or watch each other fall slowly.
The UCLA Police Department interviewed witnesses and victims in connection to the violence that erupted at the encampment, reviewed security camera footage of the masked man and later identified him as On. Pro-Israeli counterprotesters armed with fireworks, gas irritants, and blunt objects violently attacked students and faculty in the encampment for hours as private security guards and campus police watched from a distance.
But the DA is saying it just happened organically…
Gascón goes on to say that there is “no evidence to suggest that Mr. On was working in collaboration with any other individuals, and our investigation found no proof of conspiracy or any organized effort by Mr. On related to the incident.”
It was just a coincidence the attackers all dressed the same, and wore the same white masks totally a coincidence. /s
He drove himself to Kenosha. Dominic Black acquired the rifle. It’s unclear whether it was Dominic Black or Rittenhouse who drove him home, but his mother was not in the car.
Well, if you’re right maybe you should.link sour es so people believe you?
They didn’t just wipe out the people who lived there and move in new people…
Large scale immigration didn’t start happening till ethe mid 1800s when ethically European and Jewish people started immigrating enmass.
Partly because the Ottoman empire was friendly to ethnic and religious minorities.

When Rome first took it over, yeah, lots of people (Jewish and otherwise) were killed. But they werent just Jewish, they were also descended ethnically from people who had lived there for centuries.
Converting to a religion doesn’t magically change your ethnicity…
But that’s the only way what you’re saying makes any sense.
I didn’t expect you to read the link, that’s why I quoted part of it…
But I at least hoped you’d read that
If you refuse to read, there’s no point in trying to help you understand anything.

Yes, there were plans for if we joined before we joined.
Like, that’s what a functional government does, plan things in case they happen.
Only planning for things you know will happen is absolute insanity.

While it did cross into the majority of Americans (68%) thinking we should join the Allies, it was due to the belief Germany wouldn’t stop with Europe.
Interventionists believed the United States did have good reasons to get involved in World War II, particularly in Europe. The democracies of Western Europe, they argued, were a critical line of defense against Hitler’s fast-growing strength. If no European power remained as a check against Nazi Germany, the United States could become isolated in a world where the seas and a significant amount of territory and resources were controlled by a single powerful dictator. It would be, as President Franklin Delano Roosevelt put it, like “living at the point of a gun,” and the buffer provided by the Pacific and Atlantic would be useless.
Pearl Harbor settled the debate on if America would be left alone.
It wasn’t for “various reasons”.
Eh, FDR and other US politicians wanted to enter the war for various reasons, including the oppression of Jews
And some wanted to join the Axis for the same reasons…
Not just their treatment of Jewish people, but all the groups.
The nazis inspiration for their treatment of targeted demographics was literally American treatment of slaves and indigenous peoples after all.
America didn’t join WW2 cause we wanted to wear a cape, the sole reason was Pearl Harbor.
I’m sure it happened some before, but the earliest known case was like, a thousand years or so after.
The danger of the Abrahamic religions is people who did experience hallucinations from things like ergot poisoning saw the similarities to the schizophrenic hallucinations their religions are based on.
So instead of their first thought being “clearly I’m seeing/hearing things that aren’t there like a dream” it was “God has chosen me and is commanding me to do ____”.
Like, under no circumstances is a higher power providing instructions, guidance, advice, anything.
And it’s incredibly dangerous when people believe it’s possible. Because if they experience hallucinations for any reason, there’s a chance they treat it like a command.
It’s crazy they act like he’s the black sheep…
The mom raised them, and drove him across state lines.
The sister is just as big of a piece of shit, as evident in the video where Kyle curls up into the fetal positions and cries after some guys stopped him from beating a young girl his sister picked a fight with.
They’re all shit people.
It’s probably someone you blocked. If they’re the only reply and everyone responds to them, it’ll show that until someone you haven’t blocked replies.
Then you’ll just see the reply.

The concept of there being an “indigenous population” on a land that humanity has occupied and fought over for 10000 years is laughable
Hold up…
You don’t think Africa has any indigenous populations?
You think a random collection of Europeans can say they deserve that land and take it?
Like, that’s apartheid South Africa mate… Even modern South Africa doesn’t defend that anymore, which is why they’re fighting Israel in the courts today.
And stolen? They lost a world war.
What?
Are you saying that you think the native population of Israel fought with the Nazis?
Who told you that?
I don’t think you’re intentionally spreading misinformation, but that’s what you’re doing even if you somehow believe it
I mean, Lovecraft just went with OG Abrhamic stuff.
When they talk about angels in the Bible, they weren’t talking about beautiful elves from Lotr with wings.
They were something that interacting with would break your mind. Because the people claiming to see them had broken minds already, that’s why they were “seeing” them in the first place.
Which makes sense because what started the Abrhamic religions was a schizophrenic hearing voices to murder his family to appease the voice(s) in their head.
It’s been whitewashed over the centuries, but that’s all it is. The followers of a schizophrenic carrying on his delusions that began with murdering his brother. And they’re still being told if they ever experience those symptoms, they should fucking listen instead of getting mental health treatment.
Well, it’s not going to explode because it already has…
But if it’s really so old that it’s lead you should be careful. Is it an antique clock where it has value sentimental or other? If not just toss it.
The mechanism is pretty standard, so if you really want to salvage it, you can replace that (and keep the same hands) but definitely mask up and take it outside to clean the corrosion off. If it’s an antique then this has already happened at least once.
What?
The war wasn’t fought to stop genocide of any group, it was because Germany and their allies kept invading and attacking other countries.
This is what I’m complaining about.
People learn a feel good version of why WW2 happened in school and run with it. But it’s not really that accurate, it’s just what we tell kids in school.
Yes…
I’m sorry, what are you confused about?
Jewish people made up about half the victims, and was the only demographic who then got their own country given to them after it was stolen from the indengious population.
And the only demographic of victims to get their own country…
You can stick your head in sand at the beach, but with climate change the tides may be unpredictable.
But I thought when I typed this:
I thought it was clear I was talking about the countries unfortunate enough to share a border with a country ruled by a power hungry madman actively invading other countries.
With the way this is splitting, both sides are going to have at least one.
Geopolitically speaking, there’s no “good side” which I guess history is like when you’re unfortunate enough to live thru it.
