This is a good point. Math is a language, so its application to problems expressed linguistically has to be coherent if it’s a coherent language. Otherwise what are you expressing. You’d have this mess.

I don't think so. The amount of sperm from a single ejaculation is like hundreds of millions. As long you have good sperm quality like Basman said, I'm guessing that's good enough of a donation to impregnate a female?

I have a feeling you’d be good at writing raps. If you don’t mind sharing a freestyle I’d be more than eager to read it.

Interesting read. How do you do young croc?

I had to relearn this lesson the hard way: some people really are bad apples and you can’t change that about them. Psychopaths, sociopaths, all these type of anti-social personality disorders are out there and you need to be cognizant of that and not give them an opportunity to hurt you by being naive.

I am 🤣

😂 you so silly

How is it not a real nation and "should not exist". It's 157 years old. That's a lot of nation building and development. That's as real as it gets especially considering the modern nation-state is a fairly new concept. You can't just hand-wave all of that away. But anyways, this argument is really peculiar given the fact that the United States of America is way more varied within it's borders. I've heard many Americans saying going from this state to that state etc is like going to a whole new country. Florida, for instance, has been described to me by Americans from other states as something that can be described as it's own country. Is America also not a real country now and shouldn't exist? If so, then why should it decide that Canada should be absorbed by it?

This one is heart-breaking, son attacks man who r*ped and then strangled his mother to death in courtroom.

Why not shoot him in the thighs? He can't move then and it doesn't cost him his life?

@Nivsch There's a lot of errors in your chatgpt prompt. In Iraq for example, a lot of civilian deaths were from the anarchy, trauma, and sectarian hysteria that ensued. Suicide bombings alone account for 20-40% of civilian deaths, according to the same AI you used. That's not even taking into account roadside bombs. For afghanistan you have to account for these things too, and according to the same AI you used, roadside and suicide bombing accounts for 50-60% of civilian deaths. It also didn't account for the indirect deaths from sanctions, decreased infrastructure and resources for basic needs, care, increased poverty, and all these other sorts of things. Which raises the death toll and accounts for a lot of preventable deaths. Which is another thing that can be compared, and one where the U.S. did terribly in.

Israelis raped Palestinian women during the expulsions in 1948, one good case of this is the rape of a teenage girl during the Tantura massacre. Elsewhere there was also more rounding up of Palestinian civilians and shooting them execution style while they were lined up face towards the wall and hands on the wall. There are IDF records that serve as evidence that Ben Gurion made an attempt to cover up all the atrocities that the IDF were committing. Israel also tried to do a terrorist false flag in Egypt in the 50s, targeting civilians in theaters, etc., planting bombs to kill them in order to blame it on Islamists and get America to reconsider its foreign policy at the time. In 2005, the plotters were awarded certificates of appreciation by the Israeli government. Is this a good treatment of Israel to you?

Obviously they don’t care for your identity and didn’t welcome you when again, in order to create a Jewish state you have to expel them, otherwise they as the majority would just elect a Palestinian leader in perpetuity indefinitely and that would defeat the idea of a Jewish state. Why should they care about welcoming you when it means their expulsion.

This is so incredibly dishonest. Building a democratic country that is for you means that Palestinians cannot be the majority or else the country no longer becomes yours when they elect a Palestinian leader in perpetuity indefinitely. It obviously meant expulsion of the Arabs and the Arabs knew this on a conscious level. But I guess they should’ve just played ball against their injustice. You are not serious.

Cultural differences for sure. Individualism vs Collectivism produces different levels of conformity. Plenty of other factors as well. More authoritarian and corrupt a government is, the bigger the punishment for lack of conformity too.

In order to become the prime minister of Canada, you pretty much have to know how to speak French fluently. I don't know why this is a thing, but in Canada you can't expect to win if you don't know it. It's like an unwritten expectation. For people who aren't familiar with Canada, they don't realize this is not a liberal exclusive thing. Even Steven Harper, the conservative prime minister before Trudeau, spoke French out of respect (or appeasement if you want to call it that) for French Canadians. This is just a politically correct thing that both sides have adhered to in the past decades, kind of like how being pro-Israel is the politically correct thing expected from a serious American presidential candidate regardless of their political leaning.

After much flirting from the detained female, officer turns off his body cam and goes to the back seat where it gets freaky—just one thing, he locks himself in with her without a way to get out afterwards 💀.

Madness

Let’s keep it real, how traumatized are Israelis really? Let’s look at Iraq, half a million or more died from invasion of Iraq to the present moment from everything that came from that, but the overwhelming majority of Iraqis love Americans and America. Despite their trauma, they can be rational enough to empathize with the other and see the nuances of things.

I hear you on that one.

I’ve been thinking about one day in the future adopting a kid or a pair of siblings to create a family of my own, but one thing that makes this seem impossible is that, should I adopt them, I would have to go out of my way to find someone biologically related who is willing and suitable to take and raise them. Surely there’s someone in the family tree who would be willing and it would be my obligation ethically to not deprive them of that opportunity. If the family is unknown, then it is still my obligation to reunite them with a family member by doing my best to find a paper trail and having them genetically tested. The databases of companies like 23andme or ancestry would be sufficient to eventually find and contact family members. So in either case, I don’t see how there could be a scenario where I wouldn’t find a single related and suitable person who wants to be reunited with their kin. So how would I be able to create a family with this method?

Yes biological kinship does have special significance to most people. But the premise isn’t based on the biological parents. If they’re being put up for adoption I’m assuming the parents either can’t raise them or do not want them.

I understand that. But I don’t know if all possibilities have been explored by whoever before the kids get put up for adoption. If I have this story correct, my cousin in Australia lost custody of his kids, it was given to his ex’s mom, but she was considering putting them up for adoption? This, if I’m not mistaken, was hurtful to my aunt who was willing and capable to adopt them and raise them. So I think she got a lawyer but I don’t know how the story ends. Do they actually go through every single living relative? I don’t know.

Taqqiya doesn’t mean deception in the service of Islam. Taqqiya is the permissibility of concealing your religion in the face of a threat. If ISIS for instance comes to a Shia Muslim, is it permissible for him to lie and say he is Sunni in order to survive? That’s taqqiya. Perverting this concept to create a perspective on it that doesn’t exist only hurts your credibility. “according to S. Jonathon O'Donnell, some theories posit "the idea that Muslims have a religious duty to deceive non-Muslims if it furthers the cause" of Islam. He argues the "claim rests on a misreading of the concept of taqiyya, by which believers may conceal their faith if under threat of violence. This misreading is widely deployed in Islamophobic writings."[69] ” “Stefan Wimmer argues that taqiyya is not a tool to deceive non-Muslims and spread Islam, but instead a defensive mechanism to save one's life when it is in great danger (giving the example of the Reconquista).[79]” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taqiyya Furthermore this theory doesn’t hold up given that he fled the country of Saudi while allegedly wanted for rape and other serious crimes. Why would he be a double agent for a country that asked Germany to send him back? As well as the fact that he dedicated himself to creating a platform to get ex Muslims safely out of Saudi Arabia, successfully helping girls flee their families. It’s unlikely a muslim terrorist would do that to Muslim families in order to kill 4 people. They would just kill 4 people.

Very tragic. And biting the hand that feeds you--it's so goofy and cringe. These attacks remind me of an entitled and spoiled little child. Apparently you have Elon's X deactivating this guy's account, and then reinstating it after deleting problematic tweets including ones that ties him with various far-right groups, as a supporter of Elon Musk, Zionism, etc., in order to distance this guy from them. I'm guessing the posts where he implies he's going to carry out this attack and why is also deleted. So now Elon is smearing mainstream legacy media as creating fake news in regards to him being anti-muslim, but his X digital footprint still survives and people have been exposing all of his posts. As well as past journalism about him like an interview he did with the BBC, where they promote his anti-Islam activism. Disappointing level of deception being employed by Musk.
