- Comment on ICE agents pointed guns at a US citizen when she walked out on to her yard to ask why they were arresting her (legal immigrant) partner. 2 days ago:
Not to mention, “working towards legal citizenship” very strongly implies he was never a legal citizen before, or else why wouldn’t it say something like he was working toward ‘regaining’ citizenship, or mention that he ‘lost’ citizenship?
You know there are hundreds of thousands of permanent residents in the US who are not legal citizens, right? “Legal immigrant” doesn’t automatically translate to “citizen”.

It says right there in the article that he “grew up in South Carolina”. Another source says his visa papers were taken away years ago and he’s been trying to get them back ever since – hence the “working towards legal citizenship”

The Israelis are in line for that one currently.

Your “friend”, if they exist, is either a fucking moron and or they’re fucking with you. People everywhere in the country like having toilets and indoor plumbing, sometimes they just can’t afford them because the government has their heads up their own asses

I mean, a few days ago there was a brief window where Elon tweaked Grok to reply literally as him (in first person.) Jury’s still out on whether that was actually him replying to people via Grok but it’s pretty close to certain he was in very close proximity

There are no good cops.
There are bad cops, and there are cops that do their jobs – that doesn’t make them good cops.

Luckily the cops realized that was an idiot 13 year old white kidLuckily you were white. If you’d been anything else they would’ve been all over the car, maybe even planted something, and been like “well, we had to take the kid seriously just in case”.

Considering a lot of the NYPD straight up said they’d resign if he became mayor, I think he’s got a pretty good chance of bringing change if he really wants to

It could be, but from available context it doesn’t seem that way – it looks like they just got mad that he was in their way and knocked the cart over

- Comment on Australian police beat an opposition politician so badly that she might lose an eye -- simply for being at an anti-genocide protest. 5 weeks ago:
I wasn’t concentrating specifically on Aus either, just pointing out that a prominent member of “the west” is brutally attempting to silence dissent, which they are. Yes, I am trying to say that criticism of Israel isn’t looked upon kindly in Australia – or in France, or in Germany, or in Italy, or in the Netherlands – and there’s no dearth of police brutality to be had in the US and Canada either.
As for arresting Netanyahu, Belgium and Hungary have straight up said they’ll be doing no such thing, and Greece was more than happy to welcome him despite there being an ICC arrest warrant out for him. Germany’s obviously not going to arrest him, France has done everything possible to be as lily-livered and non-committal about it as possible while backtracking on Palestinian recognition.
So no, it hasn’t “been permitted” indefinitely. The tide is turning amongst the people, but governments are still being as heavy-handed and militaristic as possible to shield their genocidaire buddies and the military contracts they bring.
- Comment on Australian police beat an opposition politician so badly that she might lose an eye -- simply for being at an anti-genocide protest. 5 weeks ago:
the point is about whether criticism of Israel is allowed. It is, both by people and politicians.
May I remind you that we’re discussing this on a post about how an Australian woman in Australia was viciously beaten by state actors (cops) for engaging in criticism of Israel.
There are also instances of EU(Irish) citizens being deported due to Palestine support.
Again, if someone’s being deported for criticizing Israel, I don’t think that really qualifies as “criticism is allowed”. In theory, I’m sure it is. In practice is a very different beast.

league of Arab counties
Which Arab countries? Every single one has been quiet, and some have been actively aiding the genocide.
Even Germany and France have expressed concern
To what end? Germany’s been militant in its support, and France shrank away from actively censuring the genocidaires every chance they got.
The EU as whole is flagging that free trade agreements may be annulled due to war crimes.
They’ve been doing that dance for over a year. What has come of it?

- Comment on Florida sheriff warns protesters ahead of nationwide rallies: ‘We will kill you dead’ 1 month ago:
With how cops are, it’s tantamount to the same thing – it’s tacit approval for them to straight up murder protesters regardless of provocation. They can always make that shit up later and get off without consequences.
- Comment on Florida sheriff warns protesters ahead of nationwide rallies: ‘We will kill you dead’ 1 month ago:
None of those things automatically give you the right to murder someone. Due process exists for a reason.
