There’s a few non-antisemitic takes. First off, it’s a depiction of NYT specifically. We should not immediately conflate this with Zionists in general.

First is ‘capitalist pigs’. Israel as a project might be Zion to Zionists, but to organizations it’s a way to grab property and develop more speculative goods.

The other can be from the perspective of NYT as a news org ‘pumping out cartloads of shit’.

A final one I can think of is the pigs from Orwell’s Animal Farm. The pigs in it used manipulative rhetoric to get the other animals to both obey them and included standing by as their friends were executed for ‘the greater good’. At the End of the book, the pigs are no different than the humans the farm animals drove out to secure their freedom, dressing in human clothes, walking on two legs, living in the farmer’s house, and making deals with the farmers. It was a critique by Orwell of communist movements being hijacked to only benefit their vangaurds rather than the prolateriat as a whole, but I can see how the metaphor can fit for a news org siding with Zionists instead of writing truthfully about the Gaza genocide.

As an update, I am now able to see the post as of 19:33 UTC today. Odd. I guess they may have fixed the issue?

Right after a beer!

Context

Hey, I’m on voyager and this post failed to load. What file format is this so i can inform the dev of this?

Edit: alright I thought it might be The app, but it looks like it might actually have to do with sopuli.xyz. I’m getting a 502 Bad Gateway error when trying to see posts from them.

Also the idea is that each bite should have all the ingredients, so the limiting factor really just is “how many different things can we fit into an open mouth’s height?” Which makes it harder. I am for using thinner, higher-quality patties as a solution, but people wouldn’t like that as much as a solution.

It’s a diddle to the toon of the Oscar Myer jingle.

Is this really the path of mathematicians? I would at least assume they’d learn matrixes and linear algebra, and at least dip their toes into one of the adjacent tangential maths like discrete maths.

It seems MLK was exhausted by how ineffective peaceful protest throughout his campaigning, and communicated his doubts of whether peaceful means would actually work in his letter from Birmingham Jail. He stuck with peaceful means till he was assassinated, which is commendable.

After King’s death, the violent Holy Week Uprising occurred in response. At the end of that week, the Civil Rights Act had been passed. It sure seems like the Holy Week Uprising got some of what it wanted much faster than King’s years of peaceful protest. What King absolutely brought about, though, was a strong alignment for members of the Civil rights movement, which made the Uprising possible in the first place.

The civil rights movement was full of varied factions both violent and nonviolent, all contributing to it’s eventual partial success. We should not act as though MLK was the sole martyr of it all, though he played an important role. I’d argue that the US government props him up as a savior to try preventing anyone from thinking about violent means of resistance as a viable option. Same with Gandhi, same with Nelson Mandela.

That is a very controversial take for Americans, and not just from a gun-toter’s perspective. The US has a long history of gun violence, yes, but the US also has a long history of state corruption which only ended by guns driving that corruption back.

In 1946, Veterans in the town of Athens used their firearms to fight against a corrupt police department helping the standing state rig the elections.

In 1921 The Battle of Blair Mountain occurred, where West Virginia miners who’d been stuck in the exploitive company town employment model, battled along the ridges of Blair Mountain against Police. In the company towns you could be fired from your job and evicted from your home without trial - since the mining company owned the houses and only let employees use them - and being in a Union was a fireable offense. This was the largest labor uprising in US history, mine workers fighting deputy sheriffs and strike breakers, with the police actually using biplanes to drop bombs overtop the heads of the miners. This was apart of the Coal Wars of the US, and apart of the broader Labor Wars in the US, which eventually led to the pro-labor regulations we now have in place within the US (which are now being dismantled despite a massive rise in peaceful protests).

In 1968, the Holy Week Uprising occurred in response to Rev. Martin Luther King Junior’s assassination, and fueled by the massive inequality that the black community still faced.

All of these were cases of a overhead government, whether state, town, or federal, failing to provide for it citizens, and those citizens helping change that governments’ behaviour through violent armed uprising. It is a regular occurrence in American history for us to have corrupt officials who start setting inhumane policies, and it’s also been a regular occurrence for that corruption to need violent intervention in order for changes for the better to occur.

Gandhi was a piece of shit. I wouldn’t quote him for the most part.

In past times, you would have several generations of family adults all under the same roof. If you go even further back, the homes were made with a single sleeping area. During those times, it was pretty likely that you would hear or see a family member getting it on in some fashion - in fact, it was likely unavoidable to some extent. These kinds of living situations still exist in various parts of the world, too.

We’ve gotten very accustomed to the extreme privacy that private chambers provide, and it’s made us prudes over sex - even though it’s something the vast majority of us do in some fashion.

This image is still pretty funny though.

Gonna call this one an L. Having done drugs and eaten candy, they are not the same. I do not consume drugs for the same reason I consume candy. I take ibuprofen for head aches, I drink coffee to wake up, and I take weed to mellow out or sleep better. On the other hand, I eat candy because it tastes good. These are nowhere near the same.

For comedy entertainment and peekaboo, the similarities stop at “they make you laugh”. That’s the only similarity.

That would be ‘ethical cleansing’. Ethic cleansing would be to cleanse ethic, meaning you are getting rid of the ethic. That is basically just erasing one’s morals. I think that’s already being taken care of.

Refugee ships also still get intercepted and turned away from various countries. It is nice seeing the violent bigots turned away for a change, though.

Rousseau could go either way. At minimum I think he’d be an ally.

He was pretty bae, I don’t blame the artist trying to increase their waifu score.

For this missing context, this is what the Klansman ceremony outfit looks like.

Again, it’s 50 dollars per student - given to the school as a subsidy. The average middle school has something around 500-600 students, so that’s between $25,000 to $30,000 per school. That’s not huge but it’s not negligible either.

If that money were all distributed to our education system, it would only really go to the children of the US, so it makes less sense to evaluate that money on a per-american basis.

That money would also be going to institutions as opposed to the students, so a more practical evaluation would be to see what amounts would go to each school.

At the end of the day, though, we know that $3.3bn isn’t going to education - not even a bit.
