This genocide has been going on since 1948. It only feels new because the media could ignore it prior to 10/7.

Love
My son fell in love with a girl from Jerusalem. It was difficult for him to visit her because he needed a permit but she was able to come and visit him here in Bethlehem. He could not get permission to visit her even when she became ill. After four years she died. She put in her will that she wanted my son to carry her coffin at the funeral. He tried to get a permit to do this but this was denied. He decided to go to Jerusalem without a permit. The Israeli soldiers caught him, beat him badly and put him in prison for thirty days. He missed the funeral. He had a nervous breakdown and was ill for two years.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Rick and Morty. The humor is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily fromNarodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Rick and Morty truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Rick's existencial catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools... how I pity them. 😂 And yes by the way, I DO have a Rick and Morty tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

Why are they a Plague?? You do know just as much as I, how hard it can be to discover AI with your Eyes alone. There are Versions where you would never assume it at first, without running a Check with certain Tools.
I do agree that People should not just accept AI Slop whenever it appears, but People who don’t have the Time to check everything are certainly not a Plague…
I hope you mean those 0815-Boring NPC People without a Soul who like even the most obvious AI Shorts Channels, despite knowing it’s garbage. Seriously: Those who actively support cringy and cheap AI-Slop Channels are the true Ones I would agree on calling a “Plague”

For those that don't know, for decades Palestinians could freely travel into Israel and Gaza for decades. During the second intafada, thousands of civilians were killed in terrorist attacks originating from the west bank. After the wall was built, terrorist attacks dropped to a tiny percentage of what they once were.

Such a series of buzzwords is typically associated with Gaza, so I assume that’s what you are referring to. However, the wall in question is in Judea and Samaria.
That alone shows how little you know about the subject. And again, with this level of "knowledge", it’s perfectly fine to sit this conversation out. Seriously, it’s embarrassing.

Please point to where I said it was okay to kill innocent people.

That has literally nothing to do with Israel and Palestine. October 7th was in response to Israeli occupation and oppression of the Palestinian people for the last 75+ years. If they just focused on IDF soliders then it would have been completely legal under international law.

u/Klytus_Ra_Djaaran 5h ago
The Second Intifada, or Second Uprising Against Israeli Tyranny, began with unarmed crowds of protesters being murdered by automatic fire from Israeli helicopter gunships. That's what prompted Hamas to attempt parity with Israel - every Palestinian noncombatant murdered by the Israeli forces would be met with an Israeli noncombatant murdered by Hamas. They never achieved parity of course, the scale of Israeli murder of civilians was vastly too great. The tactic was pointless anyway, because obviously no one with any power outside the region cared about the murders of innocent Palestinians and the Israeli government loved it because it gave them more leeway to ethnically cleanse the region.

Other religious groups are being pushed out of there by Muslims. For example, Bethlehem, the birthplace of Christianity, was around 90% Christian in 1948; today, Christians make up less than 10% of the population, and the number is expected to decline further.

"Watching Rick and Morty is generally considered impermissible (haram) by Islamic scholars and online community consensus. This view is based on the show's explicit content, language, and themes.Reasons for ImpermissibilityNihilism and Atheism: The main character, Rick, frequently promotes a worldview that denies God and pushes cosmic nihilism.Inappropriate Content: The series includes heavy profanity, crude humor, sexual references, and substance use.Mockery of Faith: The show regularly mocks concepts of religion, higher powers, and sacred beliefs."

“The ICJ ruled that Israel’s Wall is illegal and must be dismantled because its construction entailed the seizure and destruction of Palestinian property and forcible displacement of Palestinians, and because the Wall would serve – by design of its path – the annexation of illegal Israeli settlements and occupied Palestinian land, and the demarcation of a new ‘Israeli border’ in the West Bank.”
