I never said they did.

You very heavily implied it, though.

But they demonstrate that we can’t just assume that people aren’t antisemitic just because they are left(-leaning)

Sure. Just like we can’t assume that people from Nepal don’t pollute. It’s not the norm or even something of heightened risk compared to other demographics.

Unless of course you don’t want to learn from history.

That’s rich coming from someone trying his best to leap to illogical conclusions based on two events that are specifically remarkable for being atypical.

“No true leftist is antisemitic.”

A strawman inventing a no true Scotsman? That’s impressively fallacious 😄

I didn’t and indeed have never claimed that there are any antisemites on the Left. Unfortunately, a lot of people on the Left are starting from the point of “the country (incorrectly) claiming to be representative of all Jewdom has been committing unspeakable atrocities for a century” and being misled from there down rabbit holes that sometimes go all the way to ACTUALLY antisemitic conspiracy theory nonsense.

That being said, those people are a tiny minority, and your two examples from the days of disco and earlier don’t prove otherwise.

That’s very very true. However, none of the current Left is.

Fun fact: two distinct events from 1969 and 1976 might not accurately represent the Left in 2025.

For one thing, everyone who participated in those atrocious acts are elderly or dead now. Most of the Left are neither.

That doesn’t make you more interesting but it doesn’t make you any less interesting either! Huzzah!

PS: which would you say is the best Fallout game and why is it New Vegas?

driving while intoxicated/under the influence (different states use DWI or DUI).

I thought it was a matter of severity, with DUI being over the limit but not obviously impaired and DWI driving while there’s no doubt that you’re drunk, leading to more severe punishment?

that makes it even worse

My point exactly

bottom line is they don’t want to do anything without some kind of expectation of ROI

Which is why they need to be compelled by law.

Some countries have Good Samaritan laws that protects people who honestly want to do their best to help someone from being penalized for it.

Other countries have “duty to act” laws penalizing those who choose not to help in a clear emergency.

Other countries have BOTH. That’s what’s needed when people are starving, corporate profits are booming and more food is wasted than eaten.

“I can fix him uwu”

companies that have tried to donate ended up getting sued by the people they donated to

That’s a false narrative that companies are using as an excuse.

As long as they’re acting in good faith and with full transparency, Good Samaritan laws make them immune to lawsuits and not liable for any ill effects.

Though tbf, Paul is such an ancap shithead that his objection is that it doesn’t kill ENOUGH poor people, women, minorities, and combinations of more than one of the above.

That’s not how HE puts it, of course, but he’s smart enough to have gotten a doctorate and has been in politics more than long enough to recognize social mass murder and codified bigotry when he sees it.

He’s WORSE than useless. Not only is he a Manchin level shill for fossil fuel interests, he’s said that his job is to “keep the left Pro Israel”, a statement so blatant that he’d call out anyone ascribing that sentiment to him for using the antisemitic “dual loyalty” trope.

There’s literally REPUBLICANS in Congress right now that are less awful than he is! Imagine that: the Senate leader of what the Dem leadership pretends to be the Left being worse than some actual fascists 🤬

Ilhan Omar, Bernie Sanders, Rashida Tlaib, Summer Lee, AOC (though she’s compromised with the party leadership on Israel’s genocide to an abhorrent degree nonetheless), Ayanna Presley, Cory Bush (successfully primaried over it) and Jamaal Bowman (ditto), and everyone else not listed here.

They’re a small minority for sure, but they exist and pretending otherwise just feeds into the manipulative establishment “electability” narrative that they use to poison the public against progressive candidates.

Ah, the classic “any % speed run” where you just yeet (from) a part of the game to another part whether you’re supposed to be able to or not. Like Shadowboxing in Baldurs Gate 3

We have reached concurrence 🤜

Maybe skip the middle step, though.

I mean, that child or little person would have to have even BIGGER hands in proportion than an average sized adult whose fingers look normal on the theoretically gigantic berry 🤷

Might come in handy if there’s a less malevolent version available too 🤔

If I were you, I’d changed “guessed what is” to “identified”.

Signals an analytic, inquisitive, and curious mind, rather than someone who happened to fortuitously win a game of “pin the minora on the labia”.

Though admittedly that IS a hell of a game when played right…
