Jerusalem's status is disputed. Israel claims it as its capital. Putting the embassy there would legitimize the claim.

And would help delegitimize Palestinian claims to the city, as well as giving cover for further land grabs in the West Bank, both of which are at least as important to Kirschen.

Antifascists are the real fascists, just like black people protesting police brutality are the real racists and women reporting assault are the real sexists.

No no not anti-facist, "antifa", a secret highly-organised SJW terrorist cell named after a strange meaningless word of unclear origin - presumably derived from some kind of acronym, or maybe something in Arabic, it's a mystery.

Pretty sure it is. I think it's the same cartoonist that made a joke that not only is Santa a black man, but Mrs. Claus is a man too (making Santa gay).

Edit: yeah that's Paul Berge, who mainly does LGBTQ+ cartoons.

Yeah, that cartoonist is an extremely gay... rights activist who IIRC was raised as fundamentalist Christian. They're suppose to be taking the piss out of people who still think lesbian school teachers are going to recruit your daughter in a coven, but tend to get tripped up by Poe's Law here in the Gaybies thread.

I would say the implication is also that at least some of these women are lying and having a woman as a witness to defend the man from these false allegations prevents him from getting taken down in this way (if it was a man they could just accuse all of them).

Exactly this. I've been asked by people in real life why I don't murder and steal if I'm not religious. "Because I don't want to" isn't a good enough answer if it isn't followed up with "so I won't go to hell."

It also gives a scary implication that they themselves only don't do it because they would go to hell. So it is a desire they are repressing apparently?

I feel like if you could sum up one specific thing that is to blame for the mess this country is in-- and you can't, but watch me do it anyway-- it's that some people were essentially taught a set of rituals to avoid punishment, divine or otherwise, rather than any actual loving morality.

As soon as they feel they're above punishment, they have no more use for it.

The sloppy reporting about the authenticity of the Trump tape reminds me of the breathtaking absence of due diligence exercised by The Los Angeles Times when it fired me as its cartoonist. There too the story centered on an audio.

I wrote in a Times online blog that an LAPD cop had roughed me up and handcuffed me while arresting me for jaywalking in 2001. The police chief gave the Times’ publisher an audio the cop secretly made of the arrest. The audio was mostly inaudible noise, yet the Times said the fact that it didn’t support my account (or the officer’s) proved I had lied. I had the audio “enhanced” (cleaned up); the enhanced version did support my version of events. Embarrassed and/or scared of offending the LAPD (whose pension fund owned stock in the Times’ parent company, Tronc), the Times refused to retract their demonstrably false story about my firing. I’m suing them for defamation.

Where my former employer went wrong was that they didn’t investigate thoroughly. They were careless. They didn’t bother to have the audio authenticated or enhanced before firing me and smearing me in print.

Back to the Trump tape.
