@coachblade@NBroadsword@SwipeWright Apparently it's not a crime, it's a civil offense like speeding, so you're not brought before a criminal court but a civil or immigration one. Just been educated on this by an American guest๐
@aaronjmate Surely it was the most obvious and inevitable consequence given how Israel have always responded mercilessly to attacks- and yet Hamas went ahead and did it anyway. It speaks volumes about their priorities!
@Amirmizroch I'm no fan of Hamas but according to @UsefulIdiotpod they have offered to release hostages and give up power in return for a permanent ceasefire. If this is true, and the Israelis powers care so much about their hostages, why haven't they accepted it?
@NeilView@Mr_Andrew_Fox@visegrad24 In a previous thread, he showed them releasing food to women and children after/ separately to the men ... I guess you would also imagine that people are bringing the food back to their families regardless of who picks it up..
@molly_omahony Well done for speaking out and sorry this is happening to you! I have been appalled at how some members of our 'community" go after people's livelihoods and reputation with no concern for their wellbeing. Hopefully you'll come out stronger for it!
@Mick_O_Keeffe You're misrepresenting her. She says we have every right to discuss what goes on in our communities. Then she describes behaviour most of us would find unacceptable, the same way we would find someone insulting Irish people in our presence bigoted, thougtless and stupid.
@meredithgreypo@SVPhillimore My concern would be that an activist type at airbnb might bias the suggestion algorithm against a host they deemed transphobic. Do they have that power or am I being unnecessarily paranoid?
@Cathair__@mac9020@Starlink Thanks, I'm with three and have been for years, but it's been unreliable now for a while. Someone local mentioned fibre optic might be coming our way next year but I don't see any sign of it . . .
@Cathair__@mac9020@Starlink Is your phone data signal still good? Mine has deteriorated a lot in the past 6 months to the point where I will soon be looking for alternatives . . . just don't know which carrier might be more reliable!
@ColetteColfer@TheSundayIndo@johnboyne Thanks for sharing, in general I agree but find it a little ungracious towards all the straight people who have supported us for decades- and as those who stand in our corner today are not those who marginalized us years ago, why tell them to f off?
@LucyZelic @NietzscheFella It's right there in the beginning of her letter so it's definitely central to her the case she's making. I agree with @nietzchefella, it's tricky ground but at least it gets people thinking about the full impact of exemptions / concessions on religious grounds.
