It's been pretty well-known and much commented on that "the left" is full of anti-semites. E.g. the Black Lives Matter movement was often accused of being at best indifferent to anti-semitism. (No comment from me on the truth

I think it would be better if you gave your views on what the downstream effects are, instead of just saying that other people can't think of them.

You might be right about all of that. I think waning support from the US to Israel makes sense - most Israelis no longer support the current Israeli government! That said, US and Israeli interests are incredibly aligned. They have basically

Are you referring to "Mohsen Fakhrizadeh"? I mean, yes, technically he's not a soldier, but I don't think just calling him "an Iranian civilian" gives the whole context - "he was regarded as the chief of I

Yeah, I was only pointing out that it wasn't a precedent. (And btw, imagine Iran having then sent 150 missiles aimed at the US. Seems to me like the US would respond.)

I mean, the US did assassinate Soleimani, an Iranian general, in 2020: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassination_of_Qasem_Soleima... . So I wouldn't exactly call this a precedent . But yes, this is a complicate

The Iranian general was actively working to help arm Hezbollah, who have been i a low-grade conflict with Israel since October 7th (and before). Think Israel and Hezbollah shooting rockets at each other back and forth for the last 6 months

Oh that's really cool, you filmed from a pretty interesting angle, I don't think I've seen such a close-up look at a CNC process. And the resulting cube looks pretty awesome :)

Can you give some examples of your work? This sounds very interesting. (Especially the multi-dimensional aspect, as I sometimes hang out with people who solve higher-dimensional Rubik's cubes and other similar puzzles!)

I can't play this cause I'm on a Mac, but I have to say - the video is very impressive. Almost instantly clear on what the idea is (or at least it feels that way) and looks very fun. Great job and good luck!

I didn't want to put too many caveats in my original statement, but yes - there's a difference between judging someone on physical attributes they can change vs. on attributes they can't. How you dress is a valid signal of so

This is both a stupid and offensive stereotype. Judging people based on their looks is wrong.

I think they partially are. Jordan shot down some of the drones on the way.

I don't completely disagree, but note that Iran probably factored in the defense capabilities when choosing what to do. They likely wouldn't have sent such a massive wave if they thought it would kill hundreds of people.

You say you don't deny atrocities, but you keep making statements that seem to "excuse" Hamas or make it seem like they weren't specifically targeting civilians for slaughter. And I don't understand. It is incredibl

I liked The Left Hand of Darkness and loved The Dispossessed. I didn't like the first Earthsea novel and haven't read any others. I suspect it's a book that tends to work better for young readers, or older readers nostalgic
