Just a simple childless cat lady with complex hair.
And no cats.
I do have a needy chihuahua, though.

I mean pretty much. Oder auf Englisch, “Divine Destiny.”

I would bet money he’s going to leave NATO and start some Dr. Evil Axis of Dick-taters type of bull shit.
Watch.

I mean I was kinda shocked at first but then mostly I found it pretty funny! Like “I’m not **that** interesting but clearly I’m triggering you 😘”
They wanted me to become enraged and cry but their logical fallacies didn’t work on me and they hated me for it!

I get it!! I joined a group @2016 that was infiltrated with angry Red-pilled incels, and they jumped down my throat anytime I said anything, pretty much. And then I started responding in kind and then I grew so hated they even had groups dedicated to my devastating blocks and laugh reaccs lol

I don’t mind differing opinions. I do mind, however, people not engaging in good faith discussions. It’s so myopic and disingenuous. The cognitive dissonance- like if having an open mind during a discussion might make you change your world view, then maybe you’re on the wrong side of history? 🤔

And thank you for being so open & informative! It’s so nice to be on a platform where I can am rewarded for acknowledging my knowledge gaps instead of screeched at & shamed. I used to only engage in intellectually honest discussions until @ 2015 when it all went downhill.

That’s when I first started to realize maybe we weren’t getting the full story. Because I remember learning in my AP History class about the Jews being given their land “back,” but the curriculum never not once touched on what that meant for those who were already living there. Why leave that out?

They told us they hated the Jews, and I remember being shocked.
I asked them why they hated them so much, and they were incredulous (I get why now lol), but they were very kind in their explanations. They asked me how I’d feel if their grandparents land was taken and they were put into camps.

When I was 18, back in 1998, I we t to Europe with my exchange student friend for a month. While in Spain, we met these two Muslim men from Israel. I was so naive, and I’d been taught that basically it was divine intervention keeping the Jews safe.

He’s calling the Israeli leader an idiot. And a pawn. Without saying it. His stories are FASCINATING. The guy is a prick but damn, is he brilliant.

Thank you!! That interview is fascinating. I feel like I get what his point is, that basically this was what is often called “reactive abuse.” That the Israeli leaders and their abuse is essentially to blame. And he is pissed and thinks they were extremely myopic to assassinate the old leader.

I would love that! And idk what to even ask to start to understand the conflict. I mean I know some history but I even question that accuracy because what perspective was I getting, ya know? I know enough to know idk what I know or don’t 😂
