It’s in the ultra marathons that women keep up with men and sometimes beat them

There’s a point at which women do tend to get better at endurance racing and often surpass men. And it’s in the ultra long distance races. Which actually tracks, as hunting would have likely been a mix of long and ultra long distance running
Obviously nonsense. Israel hasn’t already pushed Palestinians out of 90% of their own land. That last 10% tho, totally safe. No reason to think they’ll keep pushing them out of their homes, especially when their companies are “joking” about doing it.
Keep defending apartheid tho, you’re doing great
Your opinion is contradicted by experts on genocide.

Biden is supporting Israel’s war against Hamas genocide against Palestinians and using that support to direct Israeli policy ask Israel nicely to stop doing the bad things without any consequences if they don’t moving forward. How is this not an absolute win failure to be a decisive, moral leader?
I’ll be accepting my Nobel prize now
I can appreciate what you’re doing but I do think there’s an issue in this case.
From your second link regarding the word “idiot”, the term this community is using,
It is here that we start to see the problematic connotations of the word; it became synonymous with “ignorant person.” This meaning passed with the term throughout history, resulting in our use of it today to mean someone we perceive as being ignorant or stupid.
Looking into it further, for the majority of the time it’s been a word, “idiot” has meant an ignorant person. Which is absolutely not the same as having any certain mental condition. Calling someone ignorant isn’t inherently ableist. It wasn’t until (imo) one of the worst time periods of psychology (late 1800s, early 1900s) that it was appropriated to be used as a medical diagnosis along with “moron” to describe someone with a low IQ or “mental age”. Now that we’ve mostly moved past those ignorant concepts, we’ve changed diagnostic terms and started using those old words to mean something akin to their original definition.
Where we likely agree and what people replying to you may be missing is that ignorance is being used as an insult, which is not helpful. And while the community name may be accurate (a community to discuss ignorance on Facebook) it is toxic and low hanging fruit to post an image online for everyone to point and laugh at another person’s ignorance. Especially as the poster may assume it’s ignorance when it may actually be a manifestation of a certain mental condition.
So the community will likely be unintentionally ableist but will almost certainly be toxic and an easy way for people to feel superior to others. So I personally will not judge their use of “idiot” but I will judge those who find this content amusing and entertaining. p.s. thank you to anyone who was silly enough to read my entire comment haha
I wouldn’t be so sure. Things are a little bit different than 1967, and more countries are condemning Israel’s numerous war crimes than just those 5 countries
Yeah Israeli leaders are planning and praising the explicit targeted murder of citizens. Netanyahu has supported Hamas for years because it delegitimizes the Palestinian state (and that source is The Times of Israel in case anyone thinks I’m being biased)
It boggles my mind that so many people don’t see the far right Israeli government (that is so closely allied with America) is copying the George Bush War on Terror playbook.
I absolutely agree Hamas is a terrorist organization, but what the Israeli government is doing is far more sinister and evil. They’re just playing the long game and hiding behind “collateral damage” so they can further their apartheid.
Don’t forget the part where you moved into a cemetery and was mad that there were ghosts. And then you used white phosphorus to hit the ghosts.
There’s a helpful website/forum I found that has detailed instructions and guides
Well no one is living in a rental car for years. I understand what you’re saying but the comparison itself is pretty bad
Bunch of people here are talking about who goes to burning man. So just to be a bit objective, here’s a burning man census they’ve been doing for the past decade
The reason there’s often backlash when a man says “not all men” is because its similar to saying “all lives matter” after someone says “Black lives matter”. It’s often said in a way that detracts from a conversation around women’s struggles.
Also, from personal experience, if a women says something about men being the worst, or men are bad, it’s not because they hate all men. My wife says men are trash all the time, but she married one. She says that because she has been victimized by way too many men. Harassed by a multitude of guys. I’ve seen the messages she’s gotten, heard her stories, and just listened to her experiences as a woman. It’s honestly worse than you’d think if you’ve only lived as a man. And now I say men are trash too.
And it’s NOT all individual men, but there is an underlying culture of toxic masculinity that exists. There’s healthy and positive masculinity too, but it’s not seen by some women. I’ve been told by several women that I’m “one of the good ones” just because I’m doing the bare minimum to be a good person. That’s not the norm, and I’m seeing that more and more in the people I’m around irl and online as well.
So it sucks being grouped in with villainous men, I get it. It was something I struggled with at first. But I know that some women have to default to “all men suck” as a defense because of what they’ve been through. And it’s more beneficial for me to focus on being a good person and calling out shitty behavior, than arguing whether it’s all men or most men or some men if I want to help make a positive impact.
For the IAU records on Wikipedia, yeah. A couple things to keep in mind, 80% of the people who complete an ultra marathon are male. And the gap between the sexes, some estimate around 4% for ultra marathons, seems to be trending down.

Here’s better research I found. You’re right, men still win more often and have the records. But honestly it’s more complicated than just who is faster.
