If you're talking about the guy who stopped one of the Bondi shooters on Sunday, Ahmed al-Ahmed is actually _Syrian_-Australian, btw

It's not so much that the name is _wrong_ (as far as we know, at time of posting) but it's more that unfortunately this guy who is also living in Australia also happens to have the _same_ name (they are, however, different ages)

self call-out post in that I have been wrong on the internet before and I have this funky little psychological issue where mentally I jump straight to defensiveness but y'know, I try to acknowledge when I'm wrong on the internet. learning a thing good sometimes? maybe?

we are so poisoned by conservatism being the default that people are looking to explain away what are not benign influences: Mormonism, Gun Culture, Gamer Forums, etc. it's getting extremely pathetic

I’m not going to amplify any more of this fucking train wreck. Why the ABC executive capitulate to zionists demanding its once-trusted stations and journalists produce this kind of mess will never make sense to me.

it is my considered opinion that Google and Apple vastly overestimate the appetite for change from their users

I mean tbf we've had guns in FE since Fire Emblem Heroes (2017) (although yes, admittedly, they're just treated as funny spellbooks as with most other weird weapons in that game, but still,)
