@LGUS my dryer broke after two weeks. Then your rep misinterpreted the machine’s error code and it cost me $175. Will you own it?

@IrkaLive @VerminusM That’s where I stick. I don’t mind caring more about those kids than their parents do; it’s not a high bar. But don’t ask me to sacrifice my children for yours.

@RodgersTed @MarcusBlimi Probably a failure in his upbringing

The Holocaust wasn't just some morality tale. It wasn't just some crime against "humanity" generically defined.

It was a crime committed upon the body of the Jewish people.

It is not your cudgel to weaponize against Jews. Find another way to make your arguments.

The combatant-to-civilian death ratio in this war is unprecedented.

I’ll explain: The international media regularly quotes Hamas claims that around 25,000 people have been killed in Gaza. They of course do not differentiate between combatants and civilians.

If we are, for argument’s sake, going to accept Hamas numbers then we should also accept IDF numbers that the military has killed around 9,000 combatants (if you accept a terrorist’s numbers please have the decency to accept the democracy’s claims too).

With those numbers, the combatant-civilian death ratio in Gaza is about 1:1.5 and less than 1:2. In other words, for every combatant killed, around 1.5 civilians are killed.

Every loss of civilian life is tragic, but with this ratio, not only should Israel not be accused of genocide (that’s obvious), world leaders should be applauding the IDF’s precision-strike capabilities. As a point of reference, according to the UN, civilians usually make up around 90 percent of casualties in war. That’s a 1:9 ratio (one combatant for every nine civilians).

What is happening in Gaza is unique - it is a new form of warfare (urban setting, extensive use of human shields and massive tunnel infrastructure) and still the ratio is low.

What the IDF is doing will be studied by other militaries for decades to come. No other military in the world has ever achieved this.

@arianejustine @Elections_Daily Are you aware of the actual numbers of Jews voting Republican? It's very, very small. Compare with numbers for other minorities, especially those targeted by Trump's racism like Asians and Hispanics. I wonder why you feel the need to lecture the Jews in particular

@nadinebh_ It's one of those industries that just seem to be full of bad people and corrupt practices. We found out after purchasing our house that our agent had been repping another person in the bidding all along. "Why are you upset? If I cheated anyone it was her, not you"

@nadinebh_ My grandparents died together in January of Covid. They were married 76 years. Horrible for us to lose them both at once, but for them? What a beautiful blessing. I can't imagine how either could have survived the other

I was completely agnostic on guns... until Sandy Hook.
(A thread)
My thinking was: hey, gun nuts are kinda creepy, the gun laws are kinda stupid but maybe not the most pressing issue right now... until Sandy Hook.
My stance was: hey, folks want to hunt - fine... until Sandy Hook.

@SweetRed4 @Lindsie_Rose If it helps I made it to the top and Brian still made me feel like crap

@Donutkun2 @dianelyssa Just trying to imagine what it would have done to my daughter if anything had happened to her. Evil pos

At what point do we recognize that writing to companies doesn't work unless you name and shame them on social media?

@BenMFreeman It's not a proper Corbyn until you've replaced the Jewish holiday with one of your own invention in order to co-opt it for specifically anti-semitic purposes. I think she's got some work to do before she's earned that compliment

[Gilah Moritz @gilahmoritz]

@larrycroc @QueenMab87 He also somehow felt the need to use the n-word while doing it, like the question was about a/s so okay we're somewhat prepared for a gross answer but literally nobody asked you to be racist as well

@eliyahulann Chilul hashem, shande: submission to antisemitism is a whole class at dayschool

@BergYeshivaView @HannahLebovits Artscroll isn't interested in my kindness. It's interested in my money, and it's not going to get it with ads like this. I imagine it's useful to them to know that?

Again I ask: If the Trump administration were trying to spread the coronavirus to as many Americans as possible, how could we tell the difference?
