I don’t know if you can quite make that comparison. North Koreans don’t really have a way of informing and educating themselves out of this belief. Adult Americans, while also preconditioned by a purposefully weak education system, could know better if they chose to seek out more perspectives.

Do people not know this copypasta anymore lmao why are you catching heat for that

Is that more of a ‘big expensive city’ thing or is $65k generally considered low in the US? I’m not from there so I am trying to put that into perspective

Walter Masterson makes similar content sometimes which I’ve been enjoying instead. His channel is a lot more opinionated overall though, and he makes better use of the political platform imo.

This isn’t about responsibility, it’s about preventing suffering. If you could prevent a genocidal leader from being born, which you knew would save hundreds of thousands of innocent lives, why wouldn’t you? Because it’s that person’s “responsibility” that all of those innocent people died after all?

I will say, for a mainstream US news outlet this article wasn’t as bad as I was expecting. Maybe just because there’s no way to spin this anymore, but then again some outlets will just parrot IDF statements as fact

Somehow Corrections gave a late night show parasocial vibes and I am here for it

Conveniently they are about to declare those the same thing

Ah right, and here I thought the point of the protest was calling for peace. Silly me!

“Ha, you have nowhere else to go! We can do whatever we want”

Just wait until you hear what’s going on in Jerusalem, a city with sacred meaning to all abrahamic religions. The hypocrisy knows no bounds.

Maybe back then it was, but it sure isn’t nowadays… what with some of their most prominent reporting since October 7 written by someone with ties to the IDF

I’ll throw in Griddle, where you have to find high-scoring words on a grid

Are you basing this rant on your personal (anecdotal) experience of it working out for you, or actual statistics?

Agree with your point, but man I didn’t realize 60k was considered “scraping by” now

Es ist zum wahnsinnigwerden. Bei der NPD hieß es ja die sind zu unwichtig, als dass von ihnen eine echte Gefahr ausginge, da verbietet man nicht. Und jetzt?? Ist das etwa auch keine echte Gefahr??

Hamas are not in the West Bank

Yeah, but even that is stretching it for a work email unless there is a concrete reason you’d be concerned, like you know they’re dealing with stuff. Otherwise – at least in my northern German circles – that’s already getting pretty personal

Yeah I mean you can translate it literally, but it means nothing. The English equivalent of what it communicates in German would be more like “I hope this email gets delivered to you.” which is just a weird thing to say.

I would post the UN human rights council’s analysis but I already know you would just move the goalposts and say the UN aren’t “international policy experts” so why even bother
