    GOP lawmaker: You can’t call ‘for the eradication of Jews and think everything is going to be just okay’

    I personally think it's intentional. I think the Right wants to shut down all criticism of Israel using the force of the government. I can't think of another reason they keep misrepresenting and complaining about the protests and what "The Liberals" are or aren't saying about them.

    GOP lawmaker: You can’t call ‘for the eradication of Jews and think everything is going to be just okay’

    Okay, now you're just gaslighting. This has all been covered. I personally stated EXPLICITLY, that I did not condone violent protest. NOONE here is saying that violent protests are acceptable or that violent protestors shouldn't be arrested. Literally NOONE. You've been shown and acknowledge...

    Oklahoma schools chief directs all districts not to comply with Biden’s Title IX overhaul

    Then they need to stop buying Starbucks and avocado toast (just like @Desk trauma said, lol). Pull themselves up by their bootstraps. FYI, my dad did electrical and maintenance work for the private Christian school they wanted me and my brother to attend to get a discount on the tuition and...

    No one needs vouchers to do that. They can send their children to any school they wish.

    FTC Announces Ban on Non-Competes

    My very first professional job out of college required me to sign a non-compete agreement. I never understood how they would or could enforce such a thing, but I was young so I signed and actually abided by it. My next job was in a completely different field for 2 years before returning to my...

    IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES?: Public Opinion Shifts on Ukraine-Russia, Israel-Hamas Wars

    But that's not what's really interesting is it? Isn't what's really interesting is the why?

    GOP lawmaker: You can’t call ‘for the eradication of Jews and think everything is going to be just okay’

    So, not all then, right? See. Nuance. It's important. I certainly don't condone violence from the protestors, and any that are absolutely should be arrested, but that's why I asked my question about "support[ing] the kinds of protests that are happening." I do not "support" violence in those...

    IRRECONCILABLE DIFFERENCES?: Public Opinion Shifts on Ukraine-Russia, Israel-Hamas Wars

    If Ukraine began receiving state of the art military equipment such that they started invading Russian territory, killing thousands of civilian women and children and leveling civilian neighborhoods along the way they would be criticized for that too. These conflicts are not the same. If your...

    Are Iran’s 9 Lives Nearing an End?

    no doubt OP will cite protestors saying things like "We are all Hamas!" as an indication that even tacit acceptance that the protestors have the right to say these things if they aren't making specific threats of violence means that they are all "pro-Hamas"

    GOP lawmaker: You can’t call ‘for the eradication of Jews and think everything is going to be just okay’

    What do you mean by this phrase exactly? Conservatives on this site seem to think that saying someone has the right to peacefully (differences in the interpretation of this word notwithstanding) protest and even say what you might think are disgusting things is the same as agreeing with whatever...

    What are we doing?

    lol, see, I'm not defending anyone. I've only spoken to context, because frankly I don't really know enough about the situation and don't actually care about it specifically enough to go deeper. I've said It certainly seems like some protestors are being extremely provocative. I've shared that...

    What are we doing?

    He has. I posted the white house response condemning the anti-semitism. Columbia has its own police force as many other college campuses do also. Many arrests are being made. Do you really think that, given the history of protests and responses on college campuses that calling out the National...
