It does absolutely nothing to address real world issues or help actual, existing people. All it does is allow one to bask in their smug, self righteous, puritanical, moral superiority.

Someone can like the darkest, most fucked up fiction imaginable. It says absolutely nothing about their real world morals.

maybe my grade school education is just more fresh in my brain, but did you not learn about the effects a nuclear bomb had on hiroshima? if israel used nuclear weapons on gaza there would be no gazans alive right now.

if you regret saying something knowing you said it to a minor maybe you shouldn't say it idk

From the river to the sea,

All are dead to you and me,

And in the sea there's more dead, too,

Flora and fauna atomic goo.

The shores of Egypt are turned to glass,

There's tritium inside the grass.

Ancient Petra's in disarray,

The Kingdom of Jordan's had its day.

The land is static, but fallout's not

The Middle East has gone to rot.

Syria's in mortal danger

Life in Lebanon's a mortal wager.

Because, you see, the H-bomb's strong

We're lucky your propaganda's wrong.

woof. that’s a lot of dogwhistles. this is a truly astounding intersection of antisemitism, anti-indigenous racism, conspiracy, and propaganda.

i know horseshoe theory is real cause i can’t even tell what your political alignment is.

imagine going to a person of any other ethnicity and telling them their name which originates from another language is just "not normal enough"

Both men are making claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, alleging that they faced retaliatory harassment at the institution for “reporting antisemitic and racist conduct.”

...

“Hours after President [Minouche] Shafik issued her statement [that the university had become ‘unsafe for everyone‘], an antisemitic mob assaulted two janitors inside Columbia’s historic Hamilton Hall, calling them ‘Jew-lovers,'” the two complaints for both men recalled of the Hamilton Hall takeover in April last year.

It all began around November 2023, shortly after the bloody Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel sparked a war. Racist and antisemitic graffiti started to pop up, scrawled all around Hamilton Hall — and the campus’s janitors were forced to clean it up. “Mr. Wilson recognized the swastikas as symbols of white supremacy,” Wilson’s complaint alleges. “As an African-American man, he found the images deeply distressing. He reported them to his supervisors, who instructed him to erase the graffiti.” “No matter how many times Mr. Wilson removed the swastikas, individuals kept replacing them with more.”

Wilson lost track of how many swastikas he had to scrub, but his colleague Torres, who is Latino, pegged it in the dozens and eventually reached a point where he had enough, his complaint said

“They were so offensive, and Columbia’s inaction was so frustrating, that he eventually began throwing away chalk that had been left in the classrooms so vandals would not have anything to write with,” Torres’ complaint alleged. “However, Mr. Torres was reprimanded by his supervisor for doing so.” ...

In one instance, around Dec. 6, 2023, Torres and Wilson observed masked protesters storm through Hamilton Hall chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” and scrawling swastikas as well as other obscene graffiti in the building.

After Wilson reported that, he was told by campus security that “the trespassers and vandals were exercising their First Amendment rights” and that “nothing could be done,” per the complaint.

On the takeover of Hamilton Hall:

Rioters had moved vending machines and zip-tied doors to barricade the exits and entrances. After deciding he was out of options, Torres decided to battle his way through the mob. ‘”I’m going to get twenty guys up here to f— you up,'” one masked rioter who had “violently” shoved Torres threatened, per the complaint. “Mr. Torres pulled a fire extinguisher, which was within arm’s reach, off the wall to defend himself and replied, ‘I’ll be right here.’” During that confrontation, Torres was repeatedly struck on his back by other rioters. After repeatedly navigating to blocked-off exits, he eventually found a way out that had been blocked by zip ties and a bike lock. Following his pleas, one of the rioters cut the zip ties and let him out. Wilson had been separated from Torres during the havoc and had quickly tried to escape after determining the rioters were taking over. During his scramble to get out, rioters smashed furniture into him and pushed him repeatedly, per the complaint.

“He recalls saying, ‘I work here. Let me out,'” the complained alleged. “The rioters responded by laughing at him and mocking him. He remembers being told, ‘You work for the Jews,’ and ‘You’re a Zionist.’ Eventually, someone opened a door and Mr. Wilson was physically pushed out of the building.”

"a person of color being a bad person doesn't mean they deserve to face racism" >> "bad jews deserve what they get"

"black lives matter" >> "slavery is okay if the houthis do it"

"the US government is bad but people arent usually represented by their governments, most of us didnt vote for trump anyway" >> "all israelis are evil because of netanyahu's actions"

"if one nazi sits down at a table of 9 normal people, there are 10 nazis" >> *allowing swastikas and HH salutes at protests*

"silence is violence" >> "it isnt my job to talk about antisemitism"

"racial minorities shouldnt have to try to pass as white, 'white passing' privilege is complicated and should be treated as such" >> "jews are white and i wont entertain any other possibility, historical or otherwise"

"let minorities define their own bigotry" >> "jews dont know what real antisemitism is and theyre exaggerating anyway"

"They build their morality on the backs of dead Jews and then abuse living ones for failing to draw their conclusions from our own dead."

and as a woman of color I am specifically chided for airing dirty laundry if I expect men of color to spend one (1) business minute not being virulent misogynistic freaks towards women in my community (but I’m also not allowed to expect white men to get through the day without racism & misogyny! hmmm),

to the point that literal serial rapists & serial murderers are given the “🥺 THEY HAD SUCH A HARD LIFE… RESTORATIVE JUSTICE PLEASE… we need to hold hands as a community to uplift this totally unrepentant piece of shit whose violent misogyny has been enabled & coddled for his entire life 🥺” treatment,

and yet. every fucking time that ANYBODY suggests hey maybe Evil Thing shouldn’t happen to X group, everyone is suddenly like “well that group is predominantly female / that labor is feminized. so first I want to say that nurses are all evil mean girls & teachers are all worthless shrews & they totally had it coming! HOWEVER. I GUESS…. MAYBE… workplace violence against them is like… slightly uncool. maybe. 🙄🥱”

You people lecture me all fucking day about how I’m an evil feminazi bitch because I am highly skeptical of your “restorative community justice” and deep empathy for men who rape people to death, but if I am alarmed by a male patient beating a 67-year-old nurse nearly to death (against the larger background of INCREDIBLE violence against healthcare workers, w/ minimal workplace protection), then suddenly everyone is seized by the irresistible need to question if maybe the bitch deserved it.

then everyone has to stop & whine “well. MAYBE he shouldn’t have beaten that tiny grandmother to a pulp. But have you considered, some bitchy girl from 6th grade is now a nurse? Fuck nurses!”

Remember: a man beating a nurse nearly to death is simply not that big a deal, and certainly not worth being the focal point of a post regarding workers’ rights to safety in the workplace. You gotta stop and complain that sometimes women are rude. (not even the victim! some random woman SOMEWHERE was rude, and this complaint MUST be aired on a post about a guy beating a desi grandmother almost to death, in a possible hate crime)

Nuance for murderers and rapists, but not rude women? Loving restorative justice for every shitty violent dude, but undying hatred for rude women, to the point that you’ll hold it against every random woman in the same profession whether rude or not? OKAY.
