  • Israeli Jews are mostly European and Americans, you can look up the census.

    Israel was created as a way for Europe to not give the European Jewish people their land, wealth, language and influence back in Europe after CENTURIES of oppression. But yeah, it's the Muslim's fault. You don't even understand your own history at this point, you just want to hate Muslims, even when majority Catholic countries like Spain are calling out Israel.

    But history is history.

    LMAO rich coming from someone who is defending a country that was apparently promised to a group of people THREE THOUSAND YEARS AGO. Check your own hypocrisy.

    Today in 2026, 2/3 of racial attacks in my country are against Jews. We have synagogues being shot at coinciding with events in the Middle East. Sorry to pierce the safe little bubble you’ve built for yourself, but anti-zionism is the same as anti-semitism now

    Post stats. Back up your statement. If you're going to call the Jews in Israel refusing to serve under the IDF when they are attacking civilians in Gaza and Lebanon anti-semetic, back up your statement. If you're going to call the Jews around the world speaking up and saying that Israel should stop bombing children and civilians, back up your statement about them being anti-semites. If you're going to defend an environmentalist getting bombed in Lebanon because she didn't want to leave her conservation work, back up your statements about why she deserved to die.

    And if you live in Canada, here's the police stats about hate crimes there. It's not 2/3's btw, because anti-Islam hatecrime is also up there in the numbers, and so is anti-Asian.

    It's hilarious that you say I live in an anti-semetic bubble, when the evidence actually points to YOU living in one. I'm glad others also called you out on it.

  • If it gets to a point where Jews are leaving your country to escape antisemitic violence, who’s the monsters?

    LMAO, the people who leave are getting discounted houses/free land stolen from LIVING families who are now homeless. There are so many fucking reports, documentaries, and interviews about this, spanning back to the 19-fucking-70s. The Nakba is a real historically analyzed event. Fucking Helen Mirren has a quote about what she saw:

    Mirren said of her experience in Israel at that time:I witnessed things that were wrong. I witnessed Arabs being thrown out of their houses in Jerusalem. But it was just the extraordinary magical energy of a country just beginning to put its roots in the ground. It was an amazing time to be here.

    Who's the monster? Look in the mirror, "space cowboy". From a Canadian instance no less: you exist in a server on stolen treaty land, and you're support other's land getting stolen. What else is new.

  • It's so blatant too, for anyone with half a brain. We're part of 5 Eyes, there's like 97 data centres being built or already in the late stages of approval here, and all of our internet traffic is controlled by 3 mega ISPs in moustache and glasses. We're already being tracked pretty thoroughly. Conservatives or Liberals, it doesn't matter when it comes to selling Canadians off to foreign corporate entities.

  • Sorry, I was unclear. I meant the layoffs were related to replacing pandemic hires working from home with cheaper H1Bs willing to RTO/take cheaper salaries, since by then everyone was boostered up and ready for travel, and visa applicationswere actually being processed instead of "backlogged" (ignored) by Trump Admin 1.0.

  • Wasn't this more related to the Trump era H1B limitations expiring under Biden around 2022? I may be misremembering the timeline since time after 2020 is fucked, but I swear I remember a greater uptick of H1B hires in tech around this time, as well as outsourcing teams to India.

  • There are probably many more minds that could hack being a good doctor, but are smart enough to go into a field where the work-life balance hasn’t been a terrible trope since 1900.

    This was me. Studied for and did well on the required exams, interviewed at a couple of schools, and in between my interviews and acceptance letter I talked to a couple of people in residency at my university. The descriptions of their work-life balance was so atrocious, and the altruism of the profession so stomped out of their mentality that I decided I could probably help people in other ways.

    As I watched a couple of my close friends battle depression all through medical school and residency with very little institutional or mentor support, I decided I absolutely made the right choice. I really respect you for staying within the system and becoming an RN, because you guys also have it just as rough, along with the added disrespect of "But you're not a DOCTOR."

    I don't know why medicine is so gatekeepy in it's processes. Being strict in education and procedures I understand. But the heirarchy, egoism, and political games to grind down all these young trainees is quite archaic.

  • How is this better????

  • Correct

  • So this is the year for a summer Japan trip, got it.

  • Thanks!

    Guess I'm gonna keep on my plan of keeping an eye on the used market and hoping for honest gamers who don't mark up their 2nd hand GPUs

  • It's on Meta's chatboard, not anywhere public. I saw people on Blind discussing it, if you have access there.

  • Idk how people think China is communist when they have for-profit hospitals, that's like one of the biggest no-nos in communism lol.

    Even the public hospitals are incentivized towards profit optimizing through over-prescription of medication (or useless stuff like homeopathy) in my experience. But last time I went through Chinese healthcare was all the way back in 2017, so things may have improved now (but I doubt it.)

  • Isn't Nvidia only bumping up the price of the 5090s? Or is there an update to that?

  • We need the 80s coke back. Ketamine ain't doing shit for us.

  • They're also just being an asshole because OP accidentally wrote "conVERsation" instead of "conSERvation", and that obviously invalidates the whole argument, duh.

  • Praying for our cars to survive at least another 15 years, bud 🙏

  • Naaaaah, my 2016 RAV4 Hybrid is balling. Back up camera, 360 sensors, remote start, heated seats, medium screen with buttons and knobs instead of touch, push start, stick shift, and the best part: no wifi on-board (through my phone only). Cars peaked right here.

  • Was it Bush, or was it good ol' Dick wanting an excuse to go into the oil desert again?

  • Not to defend Dementia Donnie here...but as a New Yorker, he probably knows them as bodegas?

    Also fuck him, ofc poor people don't know deductions. We can't show 0 income while hiding our assets like his island friends.

  • Figure out how to pay my bills offline. No seriously, how did you uncs/aunties do it without online banking?

    Do I have to get cheques? How the hell does one get cheques?
