    Seriously? You're going to equate avoiding the kind of brutal repression that LGBTQ+ people face in the rest of the Middle East, including imprisonment and execution, to "painting the kitchen"?

    I can understand not wanting to entertain this argument when it comes from people who are consistently opposed to LGBTQ+ rights in the United States, but there are a lot of ways in which Israel and its policies are objectively better than the likely alternative. And it's not just a talking point to say that Palestinians and Muslims in Israel are freer than they are in just about any Muslim-majority nation in the Middle East -- it's verifiable fact.

    It's not about facts, it's about repeating words like "genocide" and "apartheid" and "Nazis" and "colonizers" as many times as possible, because "genocide" and "apartheid" and "Nazis" and "colonizers" are trigger words that make it okay to certain people to turn off their critical thinking and dehumanize one side of an awful and complicated situation.

    Ironically it's exactly what FF accuses everyone to the left of himself (so everyone) of doing all the time. You think he'd be more excited to see it actually happening for a change. :async:

    That 17,000 number sure sounds made up. Probably includes a lot of double counted names as well as people dying from natural causes.

    Good job, everyone, giving FF the dogpile on Amaris he wanted all along.
    Heaven forbid liberals don't put on a demonstration of how "fair and balanced" we are to a conservative who doesn't really give a shit.
    Great stuff.

    Amaris has no trouble inviting her own dogpiles with her shitty, delusional, hate filled takes on everything, and she's been like this for years now. She honestly deserves worse than she's been getting here, presumably some people are still going easy because of the goodwill she built up with her old persona. :shrug:

    @Diacanu is just on his auto super liberal mode - when it comes to trans folk saying horrible things (like @Amaris ' support of Hamas or @Tererune 's shocking racism) he tends to look the other way and give them a full on pass

    Poor guy hasn't even figured out that @Tererune isn't even trans :(

    Nah, I just wanted to see if I could slow the thread down with a sadness grenade.
    Y'know, stir it up a little. Make it less boring.
    You're a psychopath, so that wasn't happening with you.
    It got me about 3 seconds of fun, anyway.

    Amaris already tried that several times, making cute little digs about the folks here with dead families.
    I kind of wonder if there was some brain damage there over the years, or just full blown mental illness. My friend John Allen would never have sunk so low. :marathon:

    Except not.

    In reality, the only people who have been caught faking things related to COVID deaths are the coroners in deeply Republican counties who pretended that COVID deaths were something else because the families of lunatic right-wingers demanded it.

    I’m not saying they faked the death certificates, but if you died of a heart attack and you just happened to have a old case of Covid, they counted that as a Covid death.

    I'm sure you eagerly lapped up all of those suspiciously similar "my buddy died in a motorcyle wreck and they said it was COVID" comments on Facebook, but ... no.

    And this is the sort of thing @14thDoctor , @Dr. Krieg , @Ten Lubak , and all the others who get lost in the lies and ignore the truth because it does not support genociding muslims become. This is where this all boils down to. The Isrealis are right because they kill muslims. This has never been about anything else but a proxy genocide by the Islam hating white nationalist complicit in the US.

    The Isrealis are a convenient ally, and none of you want to regard any fact that shows you otherwise. The IDF has been caught in blatant lies about the capabilities of the Gaza Palestinians to make a war with them. There are huge underground tunnels with secret missile bases and thousands of Hamas warriors ready to storm Isreal, but when they take the area all they can find is a hole, and one shitty tunnel. Mexico has a better tunnel making system to get around the border wall, and break El Chapo out of prison. The rabbits of Watership down had a better warren design than the palestinian war machine.

    Then we haver them pointing to lists of doctors checking on patients and tried to pretend that was terrorists writing their names on paper on the wall to commemorate their presence in a hospital room. All this while they stored their gun next to a MRI machine. There is more truth to the idea the mob on Jqan 6th was tourists than there was a sizable force of terror in the hospital they bombed to kill women, children, and the injured.

    One of the best lies is the Hamas people dragged some wounded people into the hospital to do something evil with them. Or maybe if you have a brain bigger than FF's ganglion they might have brought injured people to a hospital where they might be kept alive because that is where the medicine is.

    Meanwhile you are all more worried about a fucking phrase than the reality Isreal has gone way the fuck overboard in a matter of days. We all knew they would, and now they are. Just like always, they have turned whatever goodwill they had into a complete fiasco because all their radical right leaders want to do is kill all muslims.

    Just remember american jews, when Isreal wins the radical right is going to come for you to ship you out into the jewish open air prison in between all tyhe muslim countries. This country has always had prejudice against the jews, and the first step is to clear them out of america to an easily bombed foreign nation surrounded by muslims who are just as worthless to Trump, Biden, and all christians as the jews. You want to side with Faux news, the american taliban, and the white wing who has always loved the klan and Nazis?

    Good fucking plan.

    isarealis kill and torture GLBT people, and you have not shown us any evidence of the contrary.

    The Torah created and enshrined Yaweh's hate of GLBT people, and that is the same book that you have to take as truth to support the existence of Isreal.

    Gay Jews do not come out in non-protected spaces of Isreal because they will be assaulted and beaten for being out just like in Muslim countries.

    Any day you want to prove otherwise get in a dress and wander through Isreal as a trans person and show me how long you last. They will kill you violently and piss on your dead body. That is what is tauight to all conservative abrahamic religious people from the book of laws Leviticus.

    No offense as we all know this. FF has lost the argument here so he has distracted into a COVID argument to derail this discussion. We have a few COVID threads with this long argument, so let us take this there if we have to rehash his overwhelming loss on the matter. I am all for beating FF to death on this for our amusement again, but you are getting the COVID bullshit in with our Isreal vs Palestine bullshit.

    A while back I engaged with @14thDoctor regarding his thoughts about everyone needing to punch nazis because a nazi was always bad and evil and plotting something. I guess it is my better nature that I did not immediately draw the connection between the 14th and a zionist jew.

    Having dealt with a number of jewish people in a number of different ways I am very aware of their conservative views, and jewish superior views. There is a commonality with the american catholic italian and jewish families. That is the older conservative view that they are god's chosen, and that they have to deal with the lesser of us before they get into the afterlife. They do their spiritual things while they know most of us are not going with them to their promised lands because they did their things.

    I think the jewish families were a bit better in america at hiding their conservative and more orthodox members. This is probably due to numbers as when you get closer to all jewish communities, you also get closer to the conservative orthodox jews. Having worked with Hacidic and orthodox jews over the years they really do have a superior cast that is segregated from american society by a handler class that deals with non-jews. Sort of like how you have the Vatican and high religious class separated from your everyday catholics. We do not get to go right up to the pope and speak to him unless it is very controlled, and even then it is pretty much a chosen few.

    This sort of pattern runs into the crime syndicates and is a bit of why the Italian Mafia was able to work with Jewish people as they understood these things. It is very old school european caste system. It is something the Nazis sought to copy, and even LRH and scientology have implemented in their way. It is actually a good tool of cults because you keep your elite in a bubble where they are always special.

    Anyway, it is finally becoming obvious the whole idea that I have to go punch a Nazi for being a nazi is because the 14th, and now possibly @Dr. Krieg are jewish superior. We as goyum should be fighting their enemy because they are too good for it. Despite this being of ultimate importance I do not see either of the doctors making a trip to join the fighting in Isreal. No, as members of the Trans community me and @Amaris should be getting together and going super gay force on the palestinians for our jewish friends or else we are as anti0-semetic as the nazis. The great part is, if the jews are right, and we did that, we are not going to be bothering them in heaven because we are glbt and god does not like us for wearing women's clothing as males, and for giving good hummers.

    It is good 14th has shown he is obviously a jewish person with that sort of bias. I am pretty sure Krieg is also, with the same bias. where I do not hate either of you for it, I am not fighting your battles for you, and I am not voting for anyone who would force the US military to do so either. I am OK with selling both sides conventional weapons, and have your war. Hope Isreal doesn't piss off the neighbors, but good place to test anti-missile defense systems. You idiots should be aware the american christian MIC sees both Mulims and jews of the middle east as a great bunch of people to die to make sure our weapons work as intended.

    You might not want to be the tools of that particular power structure as it is very jew and muslim free for the most part. There are more in the closet gays and trans in there than muslims and jews. The reality that there is a proxy war over in Isreal way away from america, while the KKK has had a huge resurgence on the right might tip you off america is for WASP fascists.
