Re: Meanwhile another Palestinian Genocide brought to you by Israeli Fascists

Classic 'self defence is making things worse' victim blaming. Please, explain how firing on civilian targets is self-defense. I don't know how someone could argue that the escalation in violence isn't making things worse for Palestinians... Over 200 dead, nearly 2,000 wounded so far. This isn't eve...

Re: Meanwhile another Palestinian Genocide brought to you by Israeli Fascists

They are literally being killed. What are they supposed to do? Not what they are doing now. What a helpful non-answer. Not indiscriminately firing over 3000 rockets at strictly civilian populations within Israel. Not launching them from within their own cities, effectively trying to use Palestinian...

Re: Meanwhile another Palestinian Genocide brought to you by Israeli Fascists

The single state solution surely would have it's hiccups, and definitely seems like a non-starter for this generation of Palestinians. But, really... Is there a better (feasible) option? The two state solution has never been a viable option. The demands on both sides have been unreasonable (on purp...

Re: Meanwhile another Palestinian Genocide brought to you by Israeli Fascists

To put it another way, Flash, the rockets from Gaza are a desperate response from a people who have been kicked and beaten and abused and starved and murdered and imprisoned by a force of zealous settler colonists over the last several decades. Gaza is a prison camp and the Israelis have been carry...

Re: Meanwhile another Palestinian Genocide brought to you by Israeli Fascists

Lots of those slamming Israel for war crimes have apparently forgotten targeting civilian populations is a war crime as well. Hamas does this regularly. They even manage to intentionally fire the rockets within their own cities, increasing the likelihood of collateral damage. Israel isn't without bl...

Cheney #cancelled by the Republican Party

The #3 Republican in the House got booted for not being quiet about her disdain for Trump's election lies. Gotta love the hypocrisy of a party that constantly bitches about cancel culture, canceling one of their own...

Inappropriate Name Game

Step 1: Select your favorite curse word.

Step 2: Replace the first 3 - 4 letters in your first and last name with the selected curse word.

Re: South Dakota weed

Judges overturning things people voted for in the USA is so common that it usually doesn't even make headlines. I'm only 27, but I recall the vast majority of states voting against gay marriage, and the supreme court invalidating all of those votes. At the end of the day, most people in South Dakot...

Re: What Do Dip Players Do in Real Life?

Degree in business, but found desk work/management boring. I work in a large oil refinery, running various types heavy equipment, loading railcars/tractor trailers with petroleum coke, and decoking drums. It's like playing in an adult sized, black sandbox for 12 hours (on the good days).

35 years of age, so technically a millennial (an older one). Can't remember how I came across the game, but it was roughly 5 years ago.
