It’s both infuriating and embarrassing

What’re they doing in Costa Rica?
So here’s what I (think I) know. Proper historians please correct me.
Modern history saw Palestine mainly populated by Christians and Muslims till late 1800s, when a rise in Zionism led to increased migration into Palestine. This kept increasing and really accelerated from Germany in mid 1930s (strange huh.)
When Israel officially got its title as a nation given to them by the UN in 1947, the Arab nations all voted against as they felt the share of Palestine left to be called Palestine was not enough.
Conflict has been escalating since. But I feel this is the basis for the conflict as it is today.
It is. To the detriment of everyone
Further adding to the outrage, Elisha Yered, an ultranationalist settler leader and former adviser to a lawmaker in Netanyahu’s governing coalition, defended the spitters, arguing that spitting at Christian clergy and at churches was an “ancient Jewish custom”.
So, even if that was not absolute bullshit, then that would have been a shit custom. How do you get this vile? Yea, well, we’ve been spitting on “the others” since ancient times isn’t a good argument. Just means you’ve had a fucking awful custom. What a cunt
I don’t know why it’s uncomfortable for women here, but I assume they would feel that way whether they revealed their gender or not
Oh I absolutely agree. I have no idea how to give women more autonomy when they are stuck in these repressive households.
What you’re speaking of is how it should be, how to get there is not easy.
Hope you’re right. Nice chat :)
I agree in most cases. However it is an issue when it’s no longer a choice.
Anecdotal, but a church/cult where I grew up and went to school, forbid women and girls to wear anything but skirts. Now a lot of them maybe preferred skirts over pants, but it was never their choice.
Gotta say I’m on the fence on this one. Women should be allowed to wear whatever the hell they want, but it is a problem when a garment is occasionally forced on only them. I have no good solution
Devils advocate here: isn’t the reasoning behind the hijab bans that it’s sexist, not a safety issue?
I never said you were in favour of it, another assumption you’re making. You asked why the downvotes and the answer is your strawman argument(s), and being against geoblocking and pro privacy isn’t mutually exclusive.
Poor strawman mate. You don’t have to be “a geoblocking fan,” you can despise it, while also not enabling privacy invasive firms.
Unrelated, but has anyone noticed that almost all posts and comments have at least one downvote?
Unfettered immigration? Theres exactly not a single country who has that. Some more strict than others, but none unfettered.
You know what other countries have economic downturns at the moment? Damn near everyone. Get your head out of your ass and start pointing fingers in the right direction. Not the weakest or labour immigration.
Christ, this hateful bullshit has been spouted thousands of years and the only times it’s ruined societies has been when it’s not immigration, but colonisation.
