  • Hello, non-Americans, do you have any Chinese language classes in your education system?

  • Whoa whoa whoa, I'm no AI troll, I was just high when I made it 🤪

  • All this produce is going to spoil at the food bank where I volunteer

  • Never said they were perfect. And you're right, they were wrong in their beliefs about a sun god thirsting for blood. But me personally, I would rather be a warrior in their Flower Wars with at least a CHANCE to make my way in the world instead of the capitalist hellscape of the modern era where every path just leads to more suffering

  • America has always been a place where transactions matter more than people. At least, it has been that way ever since European discovery. Native Americans were nowhere near this inhumane

  • I'm not saying no to any of these, but why ESPECIALLY Oprah? I try not to know too much about any of them, but Phil seems especially bad considering how he lost his license, I don't think Oprah did anything like that. Did she?

  • 1-Why did ICE allow Dr. Phil to be in their group?

    Well, he's a well-known media figure of claims to be centrist and unbiased, so his presence/footage could have provided a veneer of doubt to most other media coverage. They eventually need SOMEONE to play that role if they don't want to be the literal bad guys

    2-Why did Dr. Phil agree to do this?

    Well, as much as he claims to be unbiased and trustworthy, more often than not, his show is pretty much just "guilt trip the nonconformist in front of an audience until they break down and hug their relatives who brought them here" with some commercials sprinkled in for fun profit. He's basically a big bully with the 'street cred' (moustasche) to get away with it

    3-Why did anyone think this would work at all?

    Well, I don't have the numbers to confirm this, but as an American, I'm confident in saying that most Americans would trust Dr. Phil, more than some random/local reporters (even if that should NOT be the case). Even if you've never watched a second of his show, you've probably heard his voice, seen others imitate him, or are at least AWARE of his existence, and we're more likely to trust a source we've already encountered before.

  • Activists say Israeli troops have boarded aid ship

  • (Not a direct quote, just paraphrasing):

    IDF claims all 12 aid workers will be returned to their home countries

    SoMeHoW, I don't believe them. They certainly won't be returned with all their bones intact

  • Those other examples didn't directly use the swastika? That's the only example I can think of

  • The Los Angeles Police Department shot an Australian reporter with a rubber bullet while she was live on TV. Zero provocation.

    I think you're confusing feet with yards. That's like 10 yards max

  • Look, buddy, I'm no fan of western journalism either, but there's a big difference between being skeptical/aware of its biases (me) and deciding that everything they say is the exact opposite of truth (you).

    No, Ukraine is not made up of only the "Good Guys" and Russia is not only the "Bad Guys" like some CoD game from 2005. But just take a step back and look at the goals of each participant: one is trying to defend their homes and people while the other is trying to gobble up more territory simply because they think they deserve it more than the current owners

  • a more tragic tale, there never was~

  • I think it's important to note that Russia, the State, uses the Crimean bridge just as often as the local Russian People, possibly even more so due to the current situation. I would be extremely surprised if an ordinary citizen didn't have to go through at least 1 security checkpoint to get anywhere close to that bridge. Whereas a residential building is...well, just that: a place where ordinary people live their ordinary lives. Ukraine "does not get a pass just because they are the ones who have been invaded." Ukraine gets a pass because they are not actively aiming at civilian targets.

    Ukraine is making the war more difficult for themselves to avoid wasting innocent lives; Russia doesn't value their own innocents, much less those on the other side of the border

    Essentially a free, fan-made 40k game originally made like 20 years ago by one guy who has since moved on. Now it's a small team who drop semi-regular updates on github. Also, it runs on Linux
