Israel has made many attempts to share the land and has allowed to them live in territories within the land for decades
Bruh, they're annexing the West Bank. If that's your idea of sharing, I'n dying to see an example of bullshit.
- Comment on JK Rowling prefers two years in jail over using correct pronouns 1 year ago:
It’s just the kids reading her books 20 years ago didn’t recognize all the problematic shit she wrote till they grew up.
Adult here who was an adult when the books came out and recognized all the awful racist and sexist imagery. I have nothing new to add to the conversation, I'm just gonna vent. There were quite a few of us here and there who spoke up when the books were published, but we were significantly outnumbered and immediately drowned out by the "shut up and stop complaining" crowd. Yes, all this talk of "problematic" issues in the Potter books are old observations we've been rehashing for two decades...the goblins who run the banks are a horrifyingly obvious Jewish caricature, Chinese character Cho Chang's first name is actually a Korean last name, the one black guy in the whole fuckin series is named "Shacklebolt" (seriously wtf), the one Irish character goes by "Seamus Finnegan," the main female character Hermione is constantly referred to as "bossy"...just to name a few. JFC, what a shitshow.
Ok, one more example that got a lot of attention years back but sort of faded away from public consciousness: in the first movie there's a bigass six-pointed star on the fuckin floor of Gringotts, of all places. You know, Gringotts. The bank......where the undeniably Jew-like goblins work. No fuckin shit, it's right there, plain as day. That one still boggles my mind. I mean, what the fuck, man. https://i.postimg.cc/Jzx2hr31/happry-potter-1-star-of-david-gringotts.png
- Comment on ‘Daredevil’ Hits Reset Button as Marvel Overhauls Its TV Business 1 year ago:
As it moves forward, Marvel is making concrete changes in how it makes TV. It now has plans to hire showrunners.
They budgeted, produced, and released ten tv shows in two years, and they never bothered to put anyone in charge? JFC, it all makes sense now.

If you think these copypasta pro-Russia trolls are actually "leftist," boy do I have a bridge to sell you.

What, you don't enjoy being gaslit by edgy fascist teenagers? No? Maybe the genocide denial appeals to you. Still no? Well, I guess you're beyond help, then.
- Comment on Stray is being turned into a movie 1 year ago:
Annapurna? I love their games! Stray is awesome, I gotta back and finish it.
Do Journey next! That game is a fuckin trip, man. I'd love to see if they can transfer that magic to the big screen.
