@crshi50640@JimmyMack0320@ChineseEmbinUS Waters 5 miles off the coast of other countries and over 100 miles away from China are not “inherent territory” by any stretch of the imagination. The US loves peace too and will not hesitate to strike back against a Chinese invasion to protect it.
@crshi50640@JimmyMack0320@ChineseEmbinUS If peaceful coexistence is so important to China, why are they trying to take control of Taiwan? Why are they so antagonistic to their neighbors in the South China Sea? Why do they claim the ocean off the coast of Malaysia, Vietnam, and the Philippines?
@NotLikeMonopoly@vividvoid@GIGACHURCH Yes. If you go into it thinking “I hope people compliment my because I look like this”, people will sense your desire and it will be off putting.
@demiurgently Yes. Like every other habit, personality can be changed. I think that a lot of people are trying to do this at every age but the hardest part for many is staying aware of what they’re doing and what they want to change in the present at all times.
@r_blankk@marBr04644288@jayjjalen Again, what I’m trying to understand is how your beliefs about the state of Israel are related the validity of their name change.
Your belief that Israel shouldn’t exist is an opinion. How does your opinion make it acceptable to call her different name than the one she chooses.
@r_blankk@marBr04644288@jayjjalen I read the wikipedia article. What I’m trying to understand is how your beliefs about the state of Israel are related the validity of their name change.
If Israel was dissolved today, what about the fact that her family changed their name would be different?
@r_blankk@marBr04644288@jayjjalen How exactly does the history of Israel make her family’s name change invalid?
I ask because I don’t think you’re using a different name for her because of the context in which it was changed. I think you’re doing it because it sounds more Jewish and you’re an antisemite.
@r_blankk@marBr04644288@jayjjalen People aren’t allowed to change their names? And what is a “correct” name? Why does the reason her family chose to change their name matter?
