“Austere Muslim pilot at helm of aircraft brutally mauled by Israeli colonizers mid-flight”

@ingelramdecoucy I assume that in academia Roxane Gay is pretty untouchable for identity-related and leftist-movement-status reasons,

but *unless the clip is taken out of context*, it sure looks like she's using Harvard as a platform to encourage people to go out and commit murder

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@MatNuclear That may be true for leftist-atheists (who, admittedly, might be the majority of western atheists) but there are definitely famous examples to the contrary.

Sam Harris for sure has criticized Islam, and I believe so has Christopher Hitchens, for example

@netaelbandel מה הסיכוי שזה באמת יקרה?

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@ArielWaysman @grok הכי woke זה אולי שעל אף שאתה צוחק על ענייני טרנסים, אתה עדיין מתייחס אליהם כאילו הם באמת מהמין שהם מעמידים פנים שהם (למשל לאליוט פייג' כאילו שהיא גבר)

@alex_fried1 @yoavr אם הבייס שלו בעל סימפטיה לחמאס, זה אומר דברים רעים מאוד עליהם ועליו

@SirajAHashmi Which, considering your online reputation, is what Macklemore's friends in Hamas might want to do to you...

[Legal Phil @Legal_Fil]

Did Zuckerberg fund this?

Because he looks reasonable while Burr, being Burr, makes the opposition look deranged and condescending.

Remarkably, Kyle-as-a-kid’s understanding of 2026 is closer to reality than Kyle-as-an-adult-in-2026’s.

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@eigenrobot Ok, that is quite funny

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@TristinHopper Good to know, I hope the trend continues and that the same kind of thing happens in the rest of Canada and the world

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@benryanwriter The likely thing is that they'll deny that obesity has any correlation to bad health stuff, and claim that the idea of a correlation is white supremacist, transphobic, sexist etc.

It's a religion, and one especially prone to ignoring what's staring it right in the face

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@KonradCurze_8th @SethDillon she might be super ugly on the inside, but not really on the outside

[Seth Dillon @SethDillon]

Remember when they denied that it was happening? Now, they're protesting because it stopped happening.

@RollingStone @billburr Bill Burr: "It's crazy that even after so many rapes, women continue to dress promiscuously."

[Hyman Krustofsky @mrcostington]

@ingelramdecoucy if anything, they'll probably conclude "this story about the insane trans-communist ideologues is super popular! That must mean there are tons of people who agree with their ideology. The way to increase our readership is to adopt that worldview and spread its propaganda!"

[Sunny @sunnyright]

This is only a slight variation of what a bunch of people did regarding Charlie Kirk.

"That's sad, but maybe if he didn't insist on continuing to say those things..."

It's the chorus of people who might not themselves carry out the ultimate act of violence, but they absolutely want the violence -- committed by their fellow travelers -- to succeed in accomplishing their shared political objective.

They don't want to carry out the violence. But they sure as hell want the violence to work.

[Sunny @sunnyright]

No I don’t think the response to an assassination should be giving in to the political demands of the assassin.

That’s just you wanting the assassin to be successful. And it makes you a nutjob.

[Sunny @sunnyright]

When can I expect the western protest marches against Hamas and Gaza's religious leadership?

[Jarvis @jarvis_best]

Man what is it with these gals and strangling things in cribs
