I never see anyone mention this so I will:
the only reason any European football teams are worth a damn is a direct result of colonialism.
They steal the resources, then the best people.
How refreshing to see Zidane's son play for Algeria instead of France.
I just want to say that Israel murdering members of the Palestinian resistance is illegitimate, and we should use proper language around this issue.
For a long time, I was bothered by the reference to civilians when it came to counting the murdered, because implicit is the idea that Israel murdering resistance fighters is somehow okay. It's much like the way that the reference to women and children implies that the killing of men is okay.
Whether Hamas, Jabha, Shoyouiyyeh, etc., they are also civilians. They are indigenous, armed civilian resistance movements against a belligerent, expansionist, foreign colonial cancer.
as I've said so many times, they hate us because they want to be us. they have no culture beyond what they've stolen from us. an empty people, vessels of hate desperately reaching for relevance in the land, wanting the roots, culture, and heritage we possess, unable to truly claim it as long as we remain alive. that is the greatest source of their genocidal hatred.
I mean if antisemitism were this massive epidemic in our society, then one single incident of a random citizen saying he dislikes Jews wouldn’t stand out as newsworthy. The entire conservative news media wouldn’t have time to focus on one single incident of antisemitic verbiage.
Can’t help but notice that the religion that actually gets targeted all the time and the ones who should feel “unsafe” are actually Muslims but no one wants to speak about that
