It's completely possible (and often the case) for multiple parties to be simultaneously understandable, yet wholely condemnable, when it comes to violent actions.
Israel should not be confining those in the Gaza strip to such horrible conditions. The settlements need to not only stop, but be withdrawn from much (if not all) of the West Bank. However, there is clearly a security risk posed to Israelis by those in Gaza. Hamas aren't attacking Israel because of the settlements and they'd just as soon kill every Jewish person if they had the chance to, it's literally part of their creed and the backbone to the foundation of Hamas.
It's understandable why those in Palestine would want to fight back. It's not acceptable to capture, torture, rape, murder and defile the corpses of civilians from Israel, though. Recording yourselves doing it and throwing it into the internet to show off your savagery to the world reveals far more intent than simply "freedom fighting." Anyone who says this is "based" or "revolutionary" is showing their true colors. 80 years ago they would be cheering on Jews being trained off to Auschwitz.
The deaths of Palestinians far outnumber the deaths of Israelis, for a variety of reasons, and it's fair to take that into account when weighing up the responsibilities of both sides to end these struggles. But remember, while Israel might dwarf Palestine on its own, Israel stands against a wave of enemies in the Middle East. If Palestinians stopped fighting, perhaps conditions would grow worse for them, or perhaps not. If Israel stops fighting, it will cease to exist, and all her citizens are likely to face the same treatment you've seen today in videos spammed across Twitter and the news today.
The violence is tragic, none of it should be celebrated, no one should be giddy for vengeance or continuous bloodshed. If this situation is to ever be resolved, far more sober minds need to prevail in these conversations, rather than the ideologically partisan ones that look to co-opt every tragedy around the world to further themselves.
@FoeN3m@StephenCurry30@swishcultures_ LeBron doesn’t have to be as skilled as Steph for obvious reasons. Big difference in natural size and athleticism
this weird british guy losing his mind over selecting pronouns in starfield is the perfect demonstration for why we must bring back lobotomies https://t.co/py3wsH78XC
My argument for this will always be the mute button exists for a reason. It shouldn’t be a video games job to police anything but cheating. I’m not trying to be rude but the world is not a safe space. You have to learn to use the tools available to you to protect yourself.
I've been quite critical recently of how Dota doesn't punish toxic players enough for being verbally abusive, this is genuinely a very pleasant read and I hope it's a real start to reforming some of the playerbase and showing that they can't act the way they do anymore :)
Think about those words from Jesus. “There is only ONE THING worth being concerned about.” Man if I could get to where all I was concerned about was being with Jesus how much might that change my life?

Talking to Jesus like he is a friend...

Sensitivity is a good thing.
Having intense emotions is human. Sobbing for no reason means you’re alive. Down days are natural.
Irrational thoughts happen.
Suffering is an unavoidable.
We’re are not machines.
I really don’t think CIS is a term created or used commonly to deride. I could definitely be wrong but it feels much more like an easier descriptor than saying all the things you are or are not. Again could definitely be wrong but this feels pretty snowflake to me.
saying 'cis' is not a slur because its part of a scientific context is like saying 'homo' is not a slur for the same reason
the intent behind the words is to demean and deride
thus, slurs
Theodore Roosevelt's diary on the day his wife and mother died within hours of one another in the Roosevelt house in New York City. His mother, Martha Stewart "Mittie" Bulloch, 50, succumbed to typhus, while his wife, Alice Hathaway Lee, 22, died due to an undiagnosed case of kidney failure after giving birth to their daughter in 1884.
I wonder how many of these people talking about Dr. Disrespect cheating would have done the same thing in his situation with the amount of fan girls throwing themselves at him. Not defending it but maybe show him a little grace.
