@hopedrunk4eva Is it actually good? Looks like the fig bars in the US but instead with dates.

@VT_MattyGoovak @NoAgwa52635 The people in the photo are not Lev Tahor. The women in the photo just dress similarly because of conformity to traditional Yemeni-Islamic social norms, not theological reasons.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Ha_Mikdashist @NoAgwa52635 The people above aren’t even Lev Tahor as implied. They are some of the last Yemeni Jews to depart to Israel in the past decade or so, and the women wear niqab due to conformity to regional Islamic social norms, not religious conviction.

@Whateve66545897 @md3742244344215 @by_sah2 @6liMoon4 Whats the Saudi-Iraq drama about?

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Patrick_jane32 @ZeldaZealot And I can say this too as someone descended from the earliest colonists (1600s) in Virginia who pushed west and expanded the borders of the United States. It was an incredibly brutal process on the ground.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Patrick_jane32 @ZeldaZealot He was saying a hypothetical from the perspective of local tribes, which is expected even if its immoral. People wouldn’t want to be subjected to unethical land grabs, constant warfare and ineptitude from settlers, and seeing the world they knew die by being merciful or generous.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@T_Schizofrenis @ariel_haivri Might be semi-sarcastic knowing his humor style, but I think the underlying point is that moralizing over ancient societies obscures a full and fair understanding of them.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@ariel_haivri Keep in mind many such cannibalism accounts were exaggerated or faked in the Americas, though many prominent societies did practice cannibalism.

Some societies stopped cannibalism over time too, such as the Ancestral Puebloans/Anasazi in the US Southwest.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Patrick_jane32 @ZeldaZealot Not much has changed. His core points are actually pretty reasonable if you set aside his provocative political imagery.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@hopedrunk4eva I see so many people think Spaniards look Arab, North African, etc. Che’s ancestry is vast majority European, with Spanish and Irish heritage, it’s probably just climate + hair color and texture that makes people think they are Middle Eastern.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@DenialLaw Israel has already been forming its own knockoff axis of resistance with religious and ethnic minorities. Just no Supreme Leader.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Ulmer62336950 There is an interesting Amerindian population demographically you should investigate in Texas. From the ACS data, the Kickapoo Traditional Tribe has a very young age pyramid though it is a bit granular due to ~550 person size.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@die4myrez @UpasMom Israeli or North African restaurant?

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@seltzertuna Northern Israel will remain depopulated, and Hezbollah will slowly rebuild their military inventory and drug factories they use to smuggle throughout the world, especially to the Middle East and the Americas. Lots of ties with drug cartels which earns them billions.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@hashtagElly @die4myrez She doesn’t eat that processed from what I’ve seen.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@UpasMom @die4myrez Probably borscht, an Eastern European comfort food

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@AridoAmSubstack The future Southwest will have strong Anglo influence still, emerging more mixed.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Maqitzara Inscriptions can be dated by the writing style, even without references to events.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Maqitzara Notice, most of these are about specific titles or characteristics of individuals, not specific details. It’s hard to make generalizations about such vast collections when pre-Islamic epigraphy is in its infancy and many gray zones exist.

[CelestialObserver @ClstlObserver]

@Maqitzara Not surprised, many elements from the Hadith originate in earlier tradition. But, it cannot be generalized for all Sahih Hadith.
