“At the core of the gay rights struggle is the reality that people need to be who they are. What nature intended them to be. With trans ideology, full-fledged campaigns are encouraging people to disregard their biology and transform into what some of them wish they might have been.”
@politicalpen_ Math. Numbers. Ratios. Averages. This post is nonsense. So there are Shiites against Hizballah & Christians who support it?! What an astounding revelation. All the core sectarian divisions in Lebanon are apparently meaningless now...Thank you, & her, for the light bulb moment.
@caromoufarrej It seems you're not familiar with basic math, numbers, averages, ratios, or general facts for that matter. I sense you're a huge fan of poetry though.
@Osint613 Keep in mind Aoun's language must be guarded to appease Lebanon's Shiite powers. He knows negotiations are necessary to rid the country of Iranian occupation, and bring eventual peace for all.
@visegrad24 The Church needs chaos & strong belief in religions of any kind to be relevant. It can't rule in secular, intellectual, and thriving environments. His institution needs the migrants, whom it has a stronger chance to convert and subsequently reestablish clout.
The editors of the world's most prestigious medical journals are sounding the alarm, and nobody is listening.
"We have peer reviewed, high impact editors in most of the journals that are the most high impact, saying that they don't believe what is being published in those journals is trustworthy anymore."
"The BMJ, The Lancet, all of those editors have come out and said, we have a huge problem. We can't replicate this research and we actually don't even know who did the research."
"Everywhere we've looked for corruption, we've found it."

@BecharaGerges They're operating within the range of their own and Iranian interests. They only appear insane if one assumes Lebanon's well being is one of their considerations.
U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee:
"The agreement with Lebanon is a historic agreement. Lebanon recognized that it is not at war with Israel. Israel has already recognized that it is not at war with Lebanon. Israel has a problem with Hezbollah, not with Lebanon. For the first time we see hope and opportunity. Israel and Lebanon are not at war, and they have a common enemy, Hezbollah. I want each of us to be able to take a car from Jerusalem and drive to Beirut, and most importantly, to be able to return back."
@Osint613 Al-Akhbar is infamous for "news" and "sources" fabrication. Normalization has consensus among all but the Shiites in Lebanon. And no one expects Israel to pull out anytime soon. It's going to have to finish off Hizballah first. The Lebanese state cannot do that.
@visegrad24 Lebanon is not "claiming" what it's not intending. The nuance is that Hizballah are strongly entrenched in Lebanese institutions, including the judiciary. These types of actions are part of their final gasps.
@nntaleb I'm not sure in what universe you're considered intellectual. You sound like any other common Maronite-hating Koura Orthodox to me. Biblical references dude? Really? Zero grasp of entire Lebanese-Israeli context, and pro-Palestinian denial of Israel's right to exist. Really?
