Poe's law is an adage of Internet culture which says that, without a clear indicator of the author's intent, any parodic or sarcastic expression of extreme views can be mistaken by some readers for a sincere expression of those views.

Those silly commies don't understand that you have to bail out capitalists when they fail.

"Life Coach" is a wonderful job for people with spouses who can support them.

If Biden disagreed with the decision to move the embassy to Jerusalem - why didn't he move it back to Tel Aviv?

Everything else you listed has no bearing on added support for Israel. Also: Israel oppresses Muslims harsher than anything Trump has proposed, and they actively court evangelicals in the US.

Has Biden done anything to discourage that?

Roe v Wade, Energy policy, SCOTUS ... it's irrelevant when compared to supporting genocide.

What, exactly, will Trump do differently from Biden when it comes to the US-supported genocide? More weapons? More money? More political cover?

Consider: As long as Biden is president Dems aren't going to get behind stopping the genocide.

So no. When it comes to stopping Israel's genocide: Trump is an improvement because then at least maybe there will be some change from the Democrats.

I'm not apathetic - I'm realistically describing the situation.

Why do conservatives insist on making the left look so cool?

Thing is: There's plenty Hamas & related groups did on Oct 7th to enrage a population - no exaggeration is necessary.

However, there ISN'T enough to justify a genocide ... especially since Israelis have been torturing Palestinians for decades.

Israel needs to de-humanize the locals to the point where the population can justify an ethnic cleansing. Hence: Ridiculous accusations of using breasts as foot-balls and mass rape.

"Israel offered an evolving account of the incident as the day progressed."

Awesome way to say: Making up shit and seeing what sticks

Honest question from an ignorant 'Murican, with no context about what this controversy is about:

To a Hindu, would naming the lion 'Akbar' kinda be like naming an elephant 'Hitler' in Israel?

Or is this all just a religious/ cultural thing that makes no sense to outsiders such as myself?

 

Is it an in-joke? Or does the person who makes these just enjoy posting them all day?
