Time to vote with guns.

Dude’s like 5’2, MAYBE 100lbs soaking wet, and spineless. Fuck off, bitch.

We’re only a few months in, but this administration already needs Nuremberg Trials with the death-penalty as an option. These folks are actual overt traitors to our country, they are the enemies from within. And they should NOT get to just comfortably retire…they all need to be on death row.

Substantial Gainful Activity. It’s a metric used in the US which is adjusted each year. Currently it’s $1620/mo.

I’m down for syndicalism. But often that still involves wages…

Empathy…see myself in the other person’s shoes. Often I do this and it makes me think they’re an even bigger asshole, but I try at least.

By 2030, $17 will be the equivalent of $5/hr. Can we just skip the bullshit and tie minimum wage to 2xSGA@40hr/wk? Right now that’d be about $18.70

…what would that even look like?

Yeah and they knocked on a bunch of doors begging folks to meet, and everyone was like “Sorry, no thanks”.

A headline I look forward to: “Mitch McConnell dies; no one mourns”

Melania should wear her “I don’t care, do you” jacket on a tour of the flyover states. It’s fun when the politicians send their wives to places they’ve pissed off…like when Vance sent his wife to Greenland.

My bank let me! But then turned on some weird “margin” thing where if I overdraft, I just get charged 8% on a “loan”…which…is worse I think…and they didn’t tell me. FUN!

Oh…no. I’m not doing this Gish Gallup bullshit.

Jews are from there. LONG history before the Arabs came in. Jews were persecuted in their own land and largely expelled. Then when they were persecuted elsewhere, en masse, Arabs got mad about all the Jews being their neighbors. Kinda like white Americans getting upset about Mexican folks (many with indigenous roots) being their neighbors…and started getting violent.

Shit was a mess since then. But on 10/7 Israel wasn’t attacking Gaza…it was unprovoked, brutal, and fueled by genocidal intent. THAT started this shit.

Lol, okay. Whatever you say. 10/7 happened and Israel had a right to defend itself. Netanyahu has DEFINITELY gone way too far at this point, but that’s another discussion. The response to Arabs trying (once again) to ethnically cleanse Jews, whereby Gaza wasn’t completely wiped off the map (which would have been VERY EASY), is proof that this wasn’t an “ethnic cleansing”. At least, it wasn’t at the beginning. It sure does seem to be turning into one though, thanks largely to folks like you who enabled the rise of Trump by witholding your votes over “Genocide Joe”. LOL

Whatever, I don’t even care. The leopards have many faces to eat, and such little time.

Uh, no. No it’s not. If someone refused to work with anyone who was Russian, or who took on a non-combatant role when conscripted in the current war (such as a Medic), then it would be comparable.

I’m glad she was suspended. Bye bye!

Four years into her studies, 7 October happened. After watching Israel’s deadly retaliation on Gaza in horror from afar, in January 2024, Mohammad sent an email to the entire medical school with the subject: “Palestinian blood stains your hands, Emory University and School of Medicine.” She railed against her fellow students and the school’s faculty for being “silent about the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians”.

10/7 being an attempted ethnic cleansing of her side against Jews.

When Mohammad went into the Democracy Now! interview in April, she was already upset about what she saw as an immoral double standard. Months earlier, an Emory medical school professor, Abeer N AbouYabis, had been fired after posting on Facebook in support of Palestinians after the events of 7 October. Her post included the phrase: “They got walls, we got gliders / Glory to all resistance fighters,” a reference to the way members of Hamas glided over walls in Gaza to enter Israel and stage their attack. According to a report on AbouYabis’s firing by Emory’s committee for open expression, her post was seen as “glorifying” the group.

At the same time, Mohammad told her Democracy Now! interviewer: “One of the professors of medicine we have at Emory recently went to serve as a volunteer medic” in the IDF. That professor, she continued, “participated in aiding and abetting a genocide, in aiding and abetting the destruction of the healthcare system in Gaza and the murder of over 400 healthcare workers, and is now back at Emory so-called ‘teaching’ medical students and residents how to take care of patients”.

She’s an unhinged hate-filled Jew-hater. I’m glad she was suspended.

Israel has conscription/compulsory military-service. There are exceptions for certain super-religious cases, etc., but pretty much if they were born and raised in Israel (i.e. an “Israeli National”), you can say they were probably required to be “IDF soldiers” without really having a choice in the matter. but “Palestinian-American medical student objected to working alongside Israeli-national. The university suspended her” doesn’t induce as much rage. In the end, she’s discriminating against a protected class: national-origin.

After spending some time in that circle, it drives me insane that the biggest idiots in various fields are the ones ostensibly in charge of them. They toss buzz words with confidence each other in a great circle jerk of money while their results are frequently no better than luck.

It’s the “Peter principle”:

The Peter principle is a concept in management developed by Laurence J. Peter which observes that people in a hierarchy tend to rise to “a level of respective incompetence”: employees are promoted based on their success in previous jobs until they reach a level at which they are no longer competent, as skills in one job do not necessarily translate to another.
