  • Pro-Israel bots and astroturfers always come out of the woodworks posting whatever they can to make them look in the right/innocent/etc whenever stuff like this happens. They want the world at large to be on their side. It largely works, the things supporters will say about these people is disgusting. They don’t see them as people.

    In reality both sides have done horrible things and neither are fully in the right nor innocent. Israel will stop at nothing short of genocide and that has no place in the modern Era. Genocide should be condemned in all its forms. I dont support this war, but I also dknt blame them, they have been the subject to, again, genocide for decades. I can’t blame them for retaliation for years of torture and who knows what else that they successfully cover up. In the end, this is a long, and bloody conflict inherited from long before even before our grandparents’ era. It sadly won’t end in our generation, either.


  • You really did win the lottery! You are a wonderful man! I see now that you are a fantastic, loving person, with a PhD and masters degree in every subject. Oh how much I envy you and your perfect life. If only I could even grasp for such success.

    You must go into educateucstion so you can teach poor, unfortunate backwater yokels like me who are misguided by the belief that women, LGBT, people with physical and mental disorders, minorities, people of different beliefs, people that live in different countries, cities, incomes, and so on should be treated with understanding and respect.

    I will be sure to only respect (submit and obey) rich, white, straight, Christian males from now on. You should be proud, for I have sinned and learned my lesson. Thank you so much, my lord! Men should only be insulted only by how undesirable their wives are! After all women are the bane of all evil!

    I hope you find love and happiness and a wonderfully lobotomized wife who will never challenge or question you. After all, It is what you rich, white, Christian men like you deserve to have! Please! Throw her into the garbage once she hit 27 and is no longer of value! Thank you Lord! Please, i hope i forget how fo read! All hail DeSantis!






  • Golf can use a terrible amount of water, plus keeping it mowed, and cutting forests for it. Places like Canada or the UK might be fine if it’s not a drought year. But there’s golf courses as far as Mexico. There’s places in Mexico that is so dry outside of the summer months that golf courses would use a disgusting amount of water to keep the greens… green… there was a golf course in Mexico I went to that only bothered with the putting area and a bit around that. Everything else was dirt. It wasn’t that pleasant of an experience because you do kick up dust when teeing off and whatnot. However, no way to lose your ball I suppose. Still, the water they needed just for the putting area must have been disgusting.

    There are, but it might not be called so and at the bottom they might write “(may) contain: soy”

    I’m talking about pre-made whatever. Salad dressings, sauces, etc. They all have corn or soy in them, sometimes both. It’s hard to avoid it entirely. People with a soy allergy probably have to get specialty brands and/or go to specialty shops since food in North America is so corporate. Many of the food safety laws are a joke. And Canada is stricter than USA. In USA food safety is the whole clown show when compared with the EU.

    I have had my own insulated steel water bottle for a few years now. I have bought a couple water bottles since, but it only happens when I forget it and it’s a hot day. I still try to avoid Nestlé when that happens.

    Nestlé chocolates are bad too, though. They use palm oil in all of it. However, most chocolate companies do. And it isn’t limited to chocolates. Oreos, which are vegan, use palm oil as well, which is why some vegans and vegetarians boycott oreos. Unfortunately there aren’t many alternatives to go to for this issue. The only viable solution for this one is to “stop eating chocolates/etc” rather than finding alternate brands and companies. Unfortunately this one is rather difficult because palm oil is one of those ingredients that has like 50 different names because companies KNOW that palm oil is one of those issues people feel strongly about and try to avoid. So every company will call it something else, or something very, very vague. Avoiding palm oil is like trying to avoid corn or soy.

    I avoid Nestlé as much as I can, I mostly… I just buy a coffee crisp once or twice a year. It’s one of my favorites and I have not found an alternative I like as much/better.

    Nestle isn’t exactly making bank off me, that’s enough.
