Going forward, when anyone asks my view of immigration, I'm just going to say I agree with Aodhán Ó Ríordáin's take from 2014. That's my exact position, he nailed it.

Hey @grok, does Israel have an AI system named “The Gospel” that an Israeli officer admitted mostly kills women and children?

Be concise. No spin.

I feel increasingly disinterested in the Dutch national team. It is really quite difficult to explain without sounding racist.

When players who are not ancestrally Dutch perform well, I just don't feel this sense of pride that I used to feel. Now, one could argue that national pride, especially pride for a football team, is completely irrational. Perhaps, but it seems like human nature and basic tribalism.

Players who are not ancestrally Dutch cannot be part of my tribe. So it almost feels like cheating when they perform for the national team. And increasingly, I feel like international football doesn't make sense because it's team of immigrants x versus team of immigrants y. But it's such a buzzkill to so many people to ponder this new reality.

Furthermore, the people who are into the Dutch national team (mostly white people), especially the ones who actually attend games, are so far removed from the black community or immigrant communities in general. It seems just so jarring.

Haaland and Norway can pretend to be Vikings, and it makes sense. But the Dutch squad couldn't pretend to be Golden Age seafaring privateers or merchants (unfortunately we don't have a Viking-equivalent). It would again be jarring, because most of the players aren't ancestrally Dutch.

I thought it was so interesting. During the Netherlands-Sweden game today, the camera panned towards Lucas Bergvall and the commentator mentioned something along the lines of: "It doesn't get more Swedish than that.", referring to him having bright blonde hair and blue eyes. Odd, because I thought you wouldn't be allowed to make such comments anymore. But it shows that everybody can recognize the concept of a "true Swede", in this case. You know it when you see it. And there are implications.

In my mind, the Dutch national team is still this grand symbolic thing. I want them to do well. But even if the Netherlands wins the whole thing, feeling proud seems jarring (I like the word jarring). Because we didn't do it ourselves. We needed others to do it for us. I just don't feel it's honorable.

@Boiling_Oceans @HistoryBoomer Less dangerous than Somalia! Phew

[Nick Delehanty 🇮🇪 @Nick_Delehanty]

Irish Govt gives Somalia its highest warning of “Do Not Travel”

This is likely because:

99% rate of FGM
Rape goes unpunished
Being gay is a death sentence
Most corrupt country in the world

It would be one thing if we were taking in women and children only.

But no, we are taking 70%+ single men.

This is not ok.
It makes no sense.
Being afraid to call this out is cowardice.

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

Anyone wondering why I'm criticizing Israel a lot today...

Your Defense Minister just said this:

"We have flattened the entire first line of villages in southern Lebanon, all the houses have been destroyed. The residents will never see them standing ever again. The 200,000 Lebanese residents who were in the 'security zone' are never returning again. Not one of them will ever return to southern Lebanon"

Your Minister of National Security said this:

"For every tear of an Israeli mother, a thousand Lebanese mothers must weep. All of Lebanon must burn."

And that's just today. You think this is normal?

Mark my words and bookmark this tweet. One day in the coming years, once all these laws about age verification pass and become law. There is going to be a windows update that REQUIRES a microsoft account be linked and ID verification to continue using your windows device.

People who can't see that are going to be really caught off guard when suddenly they have to dox themselves just to use their phones, pc, and every single website they visit.

[X Freeze @XFreeze]

Britain now arrests more people for social media posts than China, Russia, and Turkey combined nearly matching the rest of the top 10 countries combined

Britain really leads the world on these thought crimes

Insane how the UK, which used to be a free country, turned out to be so totalitarian

@fractilly You really are stupid

[Michael McCarthy @punishablepress]

They are doing this not even a week after someone was nearly beheaded by the people they welcome in.

One of those "far-right" people they refer to at Brighton is a mother whose daughter was stabbed 23 times with a screwdriver by a Sudanese asylum seeker.

They want to pretend this dancing and singing is "love".
