lmao I'm so fucking glad he outed himself to a much wider population as a lil' ol' not-smart weirdo with... y'know... everything he's done recently
Still not ideal 
, but at least fewer people at work will repeat this to me as a serious claim, and those who do with less enthusiasm on average
I hadn't even considered how jarring the political switch to antisemitism will be. Dems through a lens of nauseatingly misused left-adjacent points, and Reps with more overt racism and exciting language. If the NYT runs an article called "Were the Alt-Right right about Israel?" I'm putting my fucking head right in the lathe next
Nah, I'm just a normal person without an editor. MB fam
I think I got it
That's a fair point
I had meant purely that I didn't recall a Hezbollah retaliation as wide scale as this before now. Clearly they're being intentionally provoked, and are not in any sense the aggressors here.
What do you think is a better way to say it? I will edit
Edit: I just made it super academic and it fixed it as far as I can see.
The anime is a complete story IMO, but obvs your call ¯\(ツ)/¯
I liked the below, if you don't mind a bit of fantasy isakei being in the mix.
JP title: Tensei Oujo to Tensai Reijou no Mahou Kakumei
EN title: The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady
"Hah, how wonderful! And how do they reply when you say you don't necessarily want them to die?"
"I don't say that."
The word "antisemitism" has lost all meaning.
They're pretty explicit in talking about the word, not the concept. Nobody here is saying antisemitism, the concept, doesn't exist or isn't important, but that the signifier less and less frequently refers to the actual concept of antisemitism.
I think you might just be arguing at cross purposes. Original post was borderline a purely linguistic observation, but you're talking about the underlying phenomenon.
I know I've seen sentiment from some very active trans posters that this issue has made them feel that this is not a trans-inclusive space. I just want to say that, as a cis not very active poster, I genuinely love each and every one of you trans comrades, and I hope that the fucking weird struggle session that's happened here doesn't give you the perspective that there aren't cis comrades who are supportive of you.
What reengages my empathy muscle is remembering that lots of these people are fucking miserable, even if they lack the introspection to appreciate it. Imagine being a fucking evangelical conservative housewife for instance - no real agency or support or avenue to grow. Even imagine yourself as an evangelical conservative bread-winning husband - no real avenue for self expression or discovery, and you harm the people around you constantly without a framework to understand that.
Even when you look at fascist states like Israel, how fucking tragic for all of those indoctrinated people that their worldview is as narrow and corrupted as it is, and, honestly, most of those people didn't have a hope in hell. Fucking cooked because they happened to be born in a fascist state.
Whenever I go down this line of thinking, I always end up feeling that it's just so... sadly rational that so many awful people are full of that weird impotent rage.
NB: I am also definitely not saying that I'm some saint who can always keep this thinking, it is truly advice on framing that makes me personally hate people less when I have the energy for it.
