Much better, although I’ll take your word for it cause the site doesn’t load properly on mobile.

Kinda meaningless if it’s not per capita and doesn’t account for inflation.

They’re fine with being a wanker and misinformation but they’ll draw the line at trafficking children for rape and sex work….maybe. If you apply some pressure.

Get in on the grift. Short the market, then open longs when he’s about to bend the knee. Good chance he’ll tweet directly few hours before the pump so everyone has a chance to load their bags.

but has morphed into being transparently expansionist and genocidal.

morphed? It's been transparently expansionist and genocidal way before October 7th. It's a war of self-defense alright, just not Israel's

Yes.

When the rules demand silence in the face of atrocity, the mods become archivists of obedience, not arbiters of discourse.

You should transfer ownership of the server to someone with a set if you’re that worried.

What planet are you on? He’s already greenlit ‘the gazification of the west bank’ and exacerbated the genocide, lifted sanctions, and has suggested a little light ethnic clensing so he can get to developing Gaza. Just like everyone with a clue said he would pre election to appease his massive West Bank donors.

It’s what the thread is about how is it cherry picking?

But that aside, hundreds of years before the Ulster Plantations, the MacDonnell clan migrated to Antrim and eventually became its rulers. They were likely descended from the Gaelic Scotti, the very people who migrated from Ireland to settle Scotland. So it all seems a bit arbitrary when you neglect the nuances.

Just as you can reference the Black and Tans’ Scottish unit, you can also point to the Galloglass warriors, who were Scots fighting alongside the Irish long before Protestant settlers arrived. Scotland isn’t just the Lowland Presbyterians, its history is deeply intertwined with Gaelic Ireland. They were basically part of the same Gaelic civilisation for most of their history until the 17th century when their (ruling) paths diverged due to English and Presbyterian influence.

Celtic was established to raise money for the poor Irish immigrants in Glasgow. They were fleeing the genocide enabled by Westminster during the potato famine. (From which the Scottish Highlands population never recovered from either - leading to the long-term decline of the shared Gaelic culture.)

What are you on about? Many of the Irish fleeing colonialism ended up in Glasgow so we end up with the situation described in the OP. Are their descendants not allowed to speak up about colonialism or are they not Scottish?

The elites orchestrated the union, the common people overwhelmingly opposed it, resisting English domination through events like the Jacobite uprisings and suffering brutal consequences such as the Highland Clearances.

Also shared ancestry and continuous migration cycles dating back to the Bronze Age have resulted in a significant degree of genetic and cultural homogeneity between our populations.

Less Palestinians are dying, less bombs are being dropped, people are returning to Northern Gaza

What planet are you on, have you read the OP?

The well being of the Palestinians hinged on the unhingedness of bad orange man.

Still coping I see.

Most of the people roasting you here aren’t liberals. They’re anarchists, socialists, actual leftists that have always condemned the harm the US is causing. Just not dumbasses.

You sound just as dumb as the MAGAts calling people woke.

Good. Ceasefire was just a cover to ramp up the cleansing in the West Bank though. He’s worse on all fronts.
