    Woke is tolerance, empathy, and a desire for the betterment of all at the expense of none (from the best of my observations studying conservative media). These are all the things the Israeli state leadership and a disturbing plurality of Israeli citizens and zionists around the world ideologically oppose because addressing those tenets challenges their ability to justify genocide. Imperial Ethno-states cannot be woke, by definition, even if they dress themselves in the imagery and rhetoric of tolerance (the must Humane Army shit). So yeah, of course they’re gonna shit their pants over this ‘woke’ messaging in media, cause they desperately need to control the narrative of their crimes in Gaza. My sympathy to the horrifically oppressed there, and the Jewish people both in Israel and abroad who rightly and justly oppose the violence. May the Netanyahu criminal regime collapse as soon as possible.



  • “The dictionary definition has not changed, this is like calling China communist or the USSR socialist republic, or calling the US Republican Party… well, Republicans.”

    Yeah, I mean you’re here stomping your feet over semantics by leaning on a dictionary definition rather than acknowledging that all your criticisms of other political systems absolutely applies to your defense of Liberalism. In so far as we’re existing only in theory, the things you said about Liberalism are true (according to the source that you didn’t cite), but in the actual world and as applied through history, Liberalism simply isn’t what that definition claims anymore, or Liberals aren’t Liberals despite their claims. Both can be true.

    P.S. you’re bad at this defense thing.




  • Merge them. Create the climate corps and allocate federal funding to that branch of military operation, that’s how you actually get funding, and it makes sense because climate shift is a security threat as much as anything else. Also, given how shit is turning south of the border, this is the most comfortable I’ve ever been with more military spending. I’m just saying this doesn’t have to be an either-or dichotomy.






  • You realize that you too have a choice and say in this, right? It actually doesn’t even matter if he’s ‘playing’ you or just ignorant of his own feelings, it seems to me that you’re getting very little out of it aside from distress and confusion and hurt. If he doesn’t know, you should: Why are you staying with someone who isn’t even sure they want to be with you? It’s the actual bare minimum to ask. I’d argue that you’re already not dating if he’s sitting on the fence like this, and I hope he hurts his little balls about it.








  • I have and do change my views all the time. You’re asserting conclusions about my character, as complete stranger to you, that I have never changed based on a SINGLE COMMENT online, and you want to be taken seriously? Sorry I took your statement at face value instead of knowing to apply the grandiose philosopher lens where all nuance is assumed and nobody dare clarify.

    If you were as objective and mindful as you want to project, you would realize I agreed with your statement actually, instead of getting personally butthurt in the face of a minor correction.


  • These fuckos should go into one of their classrooms and view the state mandated list of commandments for what NUMBER FUCKING SIX is. These are not real Christians, or real Catholics, or even real people. If you lack the most basic tenets of humanity how do you call yourself a human? You KNOW if anybody else stepped up to the mic and said all evangelical leaders who shamelessly, GLEEFULLY exploit and extort personal wealth from their ‘flock’ while rocking a pure white demonic smile should be parted with the entirety of their skin and thrown in salt pits in the desert to await their God, they would probably have some shit to say. What’s good for the Goose and such…

    Edit: religious illiteracy showing.
