Was supposed to stop all the Eastern and ex Serbian countries voting for each other. But In reality that never really happened more than the west do. Just a corrupt pool of bribery maybe ? Verilybitchie on YouTube seems like a good egg (tell me if they aren't) and had a good vid on the history of this stuff... https://www.youtube.com/@verilybitchie

A friend of mine who is a non-Jewish lecturer in Jewish Studies posted something on FB opposing "the weaponisation of antisemitism" and the first response was from a Jewish person who posted that "this rhetoric is just another example of how Jews are being ignored." Just absolutely living in another reality.

Nah, some random Jewish scholar. quote:My sympathies to a non-Jewish professor of Jewish Studies though, that's a tough row to furrow these dsys He's a historian of Judaism, so maybe less weird than it sounds, but yeah. He's posted a fair bit since 07/10 and is by all measures a fairly mild critic of Israel but the comments he gets from other scholars range from idiotic to unhinged. It's all some flavour of "gentiles have no right to say anything about Israel" or "the rest of the world just doesn't get it!" Also found out through this guy's FB that sadly but unsurprisingly the Israeli guy from my PhD cohort whom I was friendly with has gone certifiably insane over the last few months.

MeinPanzer posted:Nah, some random Jewish scholar. As far as I can see, Israeli society to a great extent believes its own propaganda that they're under siege and barely clinging on to existence and that they'll be utterly obliterated in an immense wave of anti-Jewish mass murder if they relax their guard for a single solitary second. This helps to explain why the October 7th attacks were such a devastating psychological blow to Israelis and why they've been acting extra crazy and murderous ever since.

Even as we speak, the Labour social media team is constructing a version of the Avengers: Endgame final battle where Keir stands heroically alone until Christopher Chope's head photoshopped onto Black Panther and Nadine Dorries' head photoshopped onto Spider-man come swooping in to take their places by his side. "On your left."

feedmegin posted:I guarantee this is not true in, say, Boston. A quirk of the YouTube algorithm means I pretty much always have in my feed some American reacting to the song _Zombie_ by the Cranberries. I like the song, so I eventually click on it, and so in a day or two there will be another. Working as designed I guess. Thing is, I don’t think I there has been one who, when they look at what the sang is about, wasn’t amazed that there was violence at a time people were making rock videos. They were all ‘surely that was all sorted out when Ireland became independent’? Of course, plenty of Americans are history/politics students or hobbyists, and so more informed. Having a discussion on NI or the pIRA inherently means you are talking to someone who is aware those things exist.

Their "Siege Mentality" was justified at different periods of time... but things can get very complicated, very quickly. Unionists over here have it and they were the ones in charge ffs, that's all i'm saying on this one.

Didn't some guy write a thing once about how a society holding the contradictory belief of being under siege from an enemy that is both simultaneously inferior but also superior was a sign of something bad. Forget his name now... Ubuntu Emo or sonething.

He either fucks up by missing something fundamental about the task, tries to do something clever that doesn't apply, or just plain fucks it up. i've only watched the first season admittedly but are you sure he isn't Doing Things Wrong To Be Funny because these shows usually tend to have at least one guy like this on them e: not that he isn't a dipshit otherwise
