That meme is working extra hard today but it's just so perfect for the occasion.

More people...per capita...🤯

Nicely done, I approve.

Enhance your calm, John Spartan!

This bad boy can take two 5.25"s at same time.

Where are you getting this $1B figure? It appears the main cost is rockets, which run about $50k per. $1B would account for launching 20,000 rockets. There are 10 batteries in Israel with at most 80 rockets each, so a maximum of 800 rockets. That means 25 reloads a day. Is it really burning through that many rockets daily or is there more to this?

MAGA customers are a double edged sword. You can sell them on practically anything as long as it "owns the libs", but they often don't have much money.

I think the primary difference here is they know the population they're oppressing so it's difficult to wholly believe the propaganda.

When being imperialists abroad, they're fed a steady stream of propaganda about how they're the hero, that they're saving democracy, babies, capitalism, and what not. Most of them don't speak the language and have difficulty relating to the local population. Americans are notoriously ignorant of everything outside the US (fine, in the US too) and the locals they're defrauding are understandably afraid and/or hostile, so many don't learn otherwise or don't want to accept otherwise. Imagine the blow to the psyche of switching gears from "great American saviour" to "brown kid murder machine to make rich people richer". That's tough.

Now the lies are much harder to believe. They speak the language, share the culture, and some are at least vaguely familiar with the events leading up to these protests. While 1/3 of the US population are utter numpties, the remaining 2/3 are at least likely redeemable and some of that larger fraction is likely present in the military. They know what they're doing is wrong and don't believe the propaganda telling them otherwise.

Now we'll see if any have the courage to stand against this. I'm not holding my breath.

Freedom to kill your own child.

They're taking pointers from the Israelis.

The United States is all about being the biggest: biggest cars, biggest wealth, biggest waistline, and biggest stupid.

The comments section, as expected from Fox News, is an utter disaster. One highlight is a "Trump philosopher" that has "deeply studied Trump's policies and has found nothing any reasonable American should disagree with".

One key to massive financial success in the United States is being too stupid to worry about the consequences of fraud and having enough money that you can likely avoid those consequences. Trump and Musk are just the luckiest two of a large group of rich idiots.

It's more that pretending certain groups are a monolith, or really pretending anything is something it's not, to justify hate speech is banned. Sure, it's easy to pretend that all Jews are Zionists (ergo all Jews are pro-genocide) but it's demonstrably untrue and just lazy thinking.

This madlad frequently responds to his own moderated comments. I've officially become a follower, it's like watching a train wreck. He's just so fragile.

Fantastic movie! When I was single, a woman's response to it was something I'd use to gauge compatibility. Mind you, they didn't have to like it.

Don't kink shame. A humiliation fetish is perfectly respectable.

You first.

From the Oxford dictionary:

Colony
noun

1. a country or area under the full or partial political control of another country, typically a distant one, and occupied by settlers from that country.
2. a group of people of one nationality or ethnic group living in a foreign city or country.

An area in another country "recommended by the UN" that is then progressively inhabited by settlers moving from other countries. Totally not a colony at all, not one bit.
