As an Arab Israeli, I’ll say it clearly: Goldilocks is lying.
We Arabs can buy private land (7%) and lease state-owned land (80%)—just like Jews. That means Arabs have access to 87% of Israel’s land to buy, sell, or lease.
JNF land (13%) is mostly agricultural land, forests, and parks, and can be leased to both Jews and non-Jews through the Israel Land Authority (ILA), or swapped for equal access.
Now I’m supposed to tell my parents that the land they worked hard to get is "illegal" because some TikTok blogger says so? Genius 🤣🤣
There’s nothing efficient about shutting down U.S. National Parks when they collectively bring in over $55B a year yet cost over $3.5B a year to upkeep. This is the kind of stupid bullshit what you do when you deliberately want to crash the economy.
What does it mean when I, a lifelong Democrat, praise Donald Trump for his actions to help Israel and American Jews when I detest everything else he’s doing?
It is a commentary not on my politics but on how frightened of Antisemitism I have become. #IStandWithIsrael
@Diogenes20203@Angry_Staffer I'm well into middle age. Just missing being eligible for the vera. Which I wouldn't take anyway. Definitely not rare in the places I've worked. Anyone like you described would have been pushed out long ago.
@Diogenes20203@Angry_Staffer None of my degrees are in anything liberal arts... maybe my law degree?
I love working for the 🇺🇸 people & the mission. I don't mind working long hours to maintain and improve life in America. Same for my colleagues. Many of us could make 2x in private and work less.
@Diogenes20203@Angry_Staffer Medical law stuff. At the big lawyer agency and then somewhere in hhs. Myself and others in my offices are workaholics. A good friend at ftc worked 80+ hrs a week until it literally almost killed her.
@Diogenes20203@Angry_Staffer Hilarious that whenever I ask about people's experience with 'lazy' govies they always cite VA. That really isn't representative of most of government. Most of my professional and social group of govies are doing multiple jobs and working long, uncompensated hours.
@Diogenes20203@Angry_Staffer Where did you work? I've worked a few places around the gov & it is nothing like you describe. Most of us are scrambling to do 3 or 4 people's jobs because we are understaffed. I work with pretty ambitious people... people with multiple higher education degrees, ivy grads etc.
@WallStreetApes Oh come on. If the school didn't check on a kid who was out for 5 days because they were abused and dead, people would also blame the schools.
