@ggreenwald You did read Mein Kampf, yes? Or at least excerpts?
Because as someone who had to read excerpts from that drivel in history class I tell you that what Gvir wrote is nowhere close to MK.
Gvir's tweet is idiotic, extreme and utter stupidity but still lightyears away from MK.
@Liesorliars@visegrad24 According to https://t.co/1DgT0uNgq3 the incident happened.
But they are never talking about them being Arabic specifically, only of foreign origin.
A later article in https://t.co/CS7eQrYI8V cites the mother of one girl saying that the men were Arabs.
@shadmbrooks It is very good, true, but I would not go that far. It is a very faithful adapation of the book with no major changes to or deviations from the storyline or characters.
I loved it quite a bit and can whole heartedly urge others to go and watch it too.
@thatstarwarsgrl Thank you for that informative and certainly quite profound statement. The hows and whys of a statement are and never were important, I totally agree.
Luckily idiocy is an implicit human right. And you have my full support use it as you see fit.
@ComicsGateDrama No drama here. In her post announcing her departure she states that she resigns over medical issues she has, a heart condition in her words. So no drama, no juicy stories and no dirt here.
I hope she gets better and that she finds a new job better suited to her condition.
@Nina7Infinity It's well made, well acted and quite hard sci-fi.
If you are into sci-fi that tries to stay physically accurate, is alt-history and not set in the far future then it could well please you.
@Nina7Infinity In this context the difference usually is minute.
But true, I don't know you. I might read too much into it. So benefit of the doubt says you are not ultimately calling for censoring them. I will give you that. (not ironic/sarcastic)

@BLoobama @EthanVanSciver They all garnered an audience of people bsically solely enjoying to dislike all things creative.
For sales one needs an audience who actually likes art - and a good solid product, something like the mighty Isom/Yaira/Alpha Core/Boodruth/Horseman/Zalen/Color Balls for children😂
@razorfist Well, would you look at that! Ms. Schneider made it out of irrelevancy for 5 mins again. Good for her. She's a trotzkist - that should say everything I believe.
@razorfist Respect! You can read old German written in Kurrent, and understand it?!
That's hard even for us here in the German speaking part of Switzerland, and old German is still quite near to our spoken dialect here.
@razorfist Sadly Bach is not something you can practise for a few days or weeks and then do a rendition of useful quality, at least not with a choir of laymen.
I sing in a dedicated Bach-choir, we did his Mass in B minor last Oct. It took 1 year of weekly rehearsals - and this is fast.
