Far fewer, not systematically; mostly unnaturalized immigrants and those with connections to the Italian government. Many of them were released before the war’s end. But yes.

TERF island is at it again, huh?

Oh yeah, Israel was instrumental in Hamas’s rise and sustainment. It’s just that Hamas would never have gotten the opening if Fatah didn’t become either hilariously or sickeningly corrupt, depending on whether you feel like laughing or crying at the absurdism of the world at the given moment.

And now Israel is trying to genocide Palestinians while blaming their own tool, Hamas. What a fucking shitshow.

Every source I’ve seen refers to it as a tricycle. I don’t know what the additional two wheels are for, but they aren’t touching the ground in the pic, so I’m inclined to keep the original description.

Third wheel is in the back.

How is that a response to what I said?

Probably has something to do with Hamas being a bunch of institutionally anti-democratic Islamist shitheads who took power from Fatah, an actual left-wing and secular and at least nominally pro-egalitarian organization, because Fatah was corrupt - only for Hamas to prove themselves as corrupt as Fatah ever was.

But sure, let’s celebrate Hamas and their imposition of women wearing hijab in public and forbidding them to leave without guardians, or the brutal murder of LGBT folk trying to flee, or the complete dismantling of democratic infrastructure in Gaza.

Hamas are fucking shitheads. It’s just that Hamas being shitheads doesn’t justify Israel’s ongoing attempt at genocide.

Very brave people.

Holy fucking shit, I need to eat my shoe

No, Kbin is having some federation issues, it would seem.

Part of the reason why WW2 didn’t spark the same level of anti-German backlash is because many who were beginning their political careers during WW1 were horrified at the anti-German bigotry that arose during WW1; and thus when WW2 came around, made sure to portray the WW2 German government as tyrannizing the German people, rather than synonymous with them.

Apparently, though, that wasn’t a concern for Japanese-Americans, who got to ‘enjoy’ the weight of US 1940s racism.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure who the artist is. If anyone finds out, I’ll add it to the title.

Because the PUG is the most IMPORTANT part of the photo

Unfortunately, probably still a better deal than being explicitly second-class citizens in Morocco. Sometimes life only offers us shite choices.

Nah man, isn’t anyone’s fault for not finishing college. No one ‘deserves’ to be poor, and college isn’t for everyone - especially if your mom was already raising you at the time.

Just surprised. Highest property tax rates are around 2% in the US, at least - your house has to be worth quite a bit for that to even approach the average rent prices which would make a move financially reasonable.

Though that’s as much a condemnation of the rent prices in this fucking country as anything, I suppose.

“FEED ME MORE T-55s”

The best part (/s) is when they purposefully drive in front of people with a ‘wimpy’ car, like a hybrid or EV or a car that isn’t fuckhuge, and intentionally spews smog behind them.

Very mature folk, very stable, very safe to be around, as I’m sure you can tell.

I love that when the issue of Ukrainian working class being murdered and exploited under a Russian kleptocracy comes up, the only thing they have is “But NATO bad!!!”

That’s because they are reactionary scum, and just don’t like admitting it.
