Russian army: Bombs and kidnaps children

Government: Special military exercise, totally justified.

Trans people: Exist

Government: How horrible! Won’t anyone think of the children?

Of course not, helping priests climb to heaven is the altar boy’s job.

Limited subscriptions can go to hell as well. Sure, I could pay $50/yr for a Switch Online + Expansion Pack (not featuring Dante from the Devil May Cry series) so I can temporarily play GBA games and lose access to them forever when the service is eventually discontinued… or I could just emulate them on my smartphone/jailbroken consoles for free.

Hand sanitizer is ~120 proof alcohol. (Not a recommendation to drink it, since it’s usually spiked with bad-tasting additives to keep people from doing just that. Some commercial hand sanitizers swap out ethanol for isopropyl alcohol, i.e. rubbing alcohol, which is more toxic when ingested.)

The distinction between anti-Semitism and anti-Israeli nationalism needs to be clarified more often.

I respect Jewish people’s right to peacefully practice their religion. (Though I disagree with all organized religions for their seemingly intrinsic capacity for inflicting harm by providing a haven for opportunistic demagogues and predators). I do not respect the Israeli military and police blowing up and beating Palestinian children to death, or ordinary people who say that violence is neceasary because they want more land.

There’s plenty of crazy people who think the other way, calling the religion unacceptable but embracing the nationalists who make human piñatas.

Where are y’all finding people to reply to you that many times

I used Reddit is Fun for about 7 years, I can’t imagine going back to the official app with its clunky format even on the most compact setting and its hundreds of trackers mining user data for who knows what. The browser version still a useful enough tool for news, but that only lasts as long as users keep posting. Once they migrate here or somewhere else, that’s the end for Spez’s moneymaking scheme. I heard the RIF developer’s working on an app for Tilde, but Connect for Lemmy has been a pretty good alternative so far.
