Fart investigates poop and finds no shit

+9 by the same logic. But I’m biased because I’m an electrical engineer 😆

how am I supposed to get this to my desk without either spilling it all over or burning my lips trying to slurp it here

Easy: redefine your “desk” to be that counter. Problem solved.

Shane Tamura was named by sources as the shooter who stormed 345 Park Avenue, a swanky 44-floor building and opened fire, killing one police officer and at least four civilians.

Yeah not like those (at least) four other non-police civilians mattered or had families or dreams. Good job NY Post for demonstrating that the media considers a cop more of a person than the rest of us 🙄

Since anything you say about all the members of the empty set is vacuously true, it’s going great.

Edit: read the meme as “wake up past 9am” for some reason. Probably because it’s like 3am where I’m at 🥱

DIG!

Death, death to the IDF.

Welcome to Fascist America (which always has been a racist, classist shithole that served as an inspiration for fascists).

Brought to you by conservative voters billionaires.

Maybe next time don’t stay home or vote 3rd party work within your communities, build alternative prefigurative systems in the here and now, and learn how to defend yourself, the people you love, and the community from the monsters who control everything.

Please elaborate what in my text gave you such an impression.

Previous reply:

Are we supposed to be very very horrified that 9 innocent people died in a plane crash?

Yes oh my God some of them were children

So, of course at least 5 %, possibly almost 10 % of Russian civilians are innocent, but out of the 44 adults that died, that is statistically about 2 to 4 people in the whole plane, plus the five children.

Of course the statistically average Russian isn’t completely blameless for supporting the Russia-Ukraine war, but that doesn’t mean they deserve to die in a plane crash!

Like the entire argument you’re making and the fact that you’re making it to argue against what I previously is what gave me the impression that your empathy is conditioned on where someone comes from.

That’s a lot of words to admit that your empathy for others is conditioned on where they come from.

Yeah and every time, nationalist turbo-libs like you will be there to voice your utter apathy for the deaths of innocent civilians because they are flying over land controlled by monsters with a different flag than the monsters who control your country, a flag whose subjects your country has told you to hate.

Nationalism is a fucking mind virus.

WTF are you on about?!? These are civilians! There were children on board!

As someone else pointed out, I acknowledge that the original article is second-hand information about a private call, so it really doesn’t matter to be precise in that exact scenario. So strictly speaking, I jumped the gun.

However… since then, Pope Leo has come out with a public statement:

https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/265457/pope-leo-xiv-prays-by-name-for-gaza-parish-strike-victims-renews-plea-for-ceasefire

My critique now applies. He calls it a “war” and a “conflict” here, and a “slaughter” in the private phone call. None of these are sufficient or even necessary (PDF warning) for genocide to occur (although they most certainly are occuring!). His refusal to use the word “genocide” is deliberate. If he had even a quarter of a spine, he’d be calling it a genocide. He’s literally the literal Pope! He has the power to do this!

This was second hand from an internal call, not an official statement. Even in an internal call he used the more graphic word “slaughter” rather than “violence” or “killing”.

Good catch. I agree with you here.

This is action, which you have to admit is far beyond the bare minimum of flapping lips.

Not for a man as powerful as the head of the Catholic Church. He could do more.

I disagree with organized religion as a whole but I am not going to bad mouth a group that was housing 600+ people in their church, including elderly, disabled, and children.

Yeah I really meant to yell at Leo in particular because IMO he’s kind of a moderate (compared to Francis). Good point.

Pope calls his Cardinal in Jerusalem, not to tell him to stop his aid deliveries out of a concern for safety but to convey that they need to work harder to “stop the slaughter”. Again, that’s more than the “bare minimum”.

Again I think that for such a powerful man, this is the bare minimum. For example, go to the church himself instead of sending his people.
