The IDF has a long and documented history of CSA in military prisons and detention centers.

I'm so ashamed of our prison guards that they didn't bother to film and leak it...

To date it has made $38m on a $50m budget. For a major film production, that is disastrous. These tent pole productions are expected to AT LEAST break even on opening.

Considering how much of the national economy is driven by California and New York, that's understandable.

And let's not pretend that every coastal lib doesn't constantly love to bitch about gubernatorial races in places like Texas and Florida.

“Do you know how many Young Republicans became Sanders supporters? Well I know at least one so that means something statistically significant on a national scale!”

Deeply unserious.

Buddy, I am not the one here coming to the defense of literal republican political operatives because I believe in my heart of hearts that they must be good deep down. Despite literally all evidence to the contrary.

It is irrelevant. Your subjective experience is a pinhole. What percentage of the total American population do you think you have come into contact with throughout your entire life? It’s negligible.

You have no basis for making sweeping statements or generalizations based on your personal life.

Right so your anecdotal experience is actually irrelevant.

Would you also like my credit card number and SSN Mr Officer?

A very creative way of admitting that you simply do not know what capitalism is.

Liberals love to Not Know Things and then speak condescendingly to others who do.

This joke is funny because it's saying Israelis are fake, rootless people who steal all their culture, see? Not a real ethnicity whose material culture is rooted in their blood and soil. No, some kind of sub-people.

This meme was heavily pushed by an influencer who claims Israel killed Charlie Kirk

“Racism begins and ends with using the n-word” is exactly how everyone knows you’re racist lmao

Amanda Marcotte @amandamarcotte.bsky.social · 8h

So when I say that when I was a young Republican, I didn't realize it was inherently racist, okay, disbelieve me. Pretend I used the n-word or whatever. I didn't, but whatever you need to feel superior.

But remember: when your rule is "born perfect or GTFO," you are limiting your coalition.

She was trying to say “there was a 20 year window where Young Republicans magically became Not Racist”. Fantastical thinking that is most likely a cope.

The type of anti-black racism that manifests in “progressive liberals” is not that they view black people as lesser - they fetishize them as Other.

“They’re just different than us, and thats ok! They sing/dance/play sports even better than us whites!”

Multiculturalism with skull calipers.
