this is, as @ArynneWexler explains, totally unsurprising.

"According to Jesus we're supposed to turn the other cheek when we're hurt, right?" "Yes. In Jesus' time, a person that backhanded your cheek was treating you as lesser. So you turn the other cheek, forcing them to strike you as an equal." "What does that have to do with immigration?" "The contention is that immigrants are allowed to treat us as lesser because they come from incompatible cultures and attack us. But we can't then tell them no, because that's 'racist'." "That seems contrary to what Jesus taught." "It is, and amazingly so. Non-Christians often seize on the idea that Jesus advocated for non-violence to tell Christians to shut up and take what's being done to them." "Are you sure that's what Jesus taught? It's not like you could ask him personally. He predates you by a millennium, right?" "Jesus makes the same point with the story of giving away your cloak, and with going the extra mile. In the latter's case, a Roman soldier could make an Israelite carry anything like a pack mule for up to a mile. It was a humiliation. But Jesus told them to carry it another mile, to treat the Roman as you would a friend, which would both shame them and force them to treat you as a person instead of a mule." "What about the cloak?" "When you're poor and living in an ancient society, your cloak is vital for getting through the cold nights. In Jesus' time, it was common to get around this by demanding the other person give you their shirt. But if you give them the cloak as well, it is a deliberate provocation: if they take the shirt and cloak, they will be shamed by the community." "And... the good samaritan?" "The point was the man who was a neighbor was not the priest or the Levite, but the one who showed mercy to his neighbor. It doesn't say 'everyone is your neighbor', in fact it states the opposite rather plainly. It's your actions that make you a neighbor, NOT your ethnicity." "So, not everyone is your neighbor?" "The neighbor shows mercy to those who have been hurt." "What does that have to do with immigration?" "Nothing. They've decided it means that you must allow immigrants to raid and attack you and treat you like garbage without retaliation of any sort. You can't even say 'stop it' without being declared racist." "Then why did he bring up Christianity at all?" "Because he's not a Christian and doesn't understand it."

There's something about black culture I need to explain. Black people have their own version of "Izzat" They call it stuff like "Heshima" or "Isithunzi" It's basically "Respect Culture" (at any cost), violating one's "honor" means violence, conflict, and "correction" (SA) You ever wonder why in black communities people are so quick to turn to violence? In America the version of Heshima and Isithunzi are basically "muh streets" and "muh respect" (how hard you are) In black culture nothing is worse than having your "Respect and Hardness" disrespected—it actually explains EVERYTHING wrong with the black community today, allow me to illustrate for you: -Don't go to school, get good grades, learn to read, be smart, that's white person shit (they literally believe this) -Don't talk "white" (correctly) talk "black" (ebonics) -Don't appear weak, be homophobic, turn to violence if disrespected, don't show mercy -Defend your "honor" at any cost etc. This is the reason that Self-defense is so important if you're in the black community, have you noticed how in clips online when black people fight, they basically don't stop? They will keep attacking. Stomp on heads. Cause serious brain damage and end up killing people/crippling them for life. It's part of "Respect At Any Cost" culture (call it "warrior" culture if you want)—as you can imagine, this also explains why so many end up in jail. Here's the sad and ironic part of all this. Ironically the one thing about Heshima and Isithunzi many in the Black community doesn't understand (much like Izzat) is that nothing deserves LESS respect than (excuse the terminology, its the best fit) "chimping out" (this isn't inherently racial btw) or turning to violence or being so stupid you are willing to go to prison over petty BS. (or talking like a retard) I think the best example are slurs, someone calls you the n-word (literally who cares) but that has violated your Heshima/Isithunzi so you MUST attack that person and stomp their head until they die—imagine being that utterly FRAGILE and stupid you'd throw your life away over "Respect" (at any cost) it is utterly, illogical but THAT is 100% modern black culture. Once you understand all this, you understand why you cannot "relax" because if you do (and sometimes for literally no reason) you'll easily end up crippled or dead. Because one way to prove how "hard" you are not appear weak is attack people—the knockout game being the best example. In other words, many (not all) Blacks literally believe lethal violence is an appropriate response to mean words and sometimes just because they feel like it/entitled to it. (reparations, revenge, utter childishness) Remember, people that have no mercy, deserve none. Stay safe out there.

@TheBrancaShow "Evidence of sustained attack". You do not wait to be knocked out and receive sustained attack. You should know this above anyone else. Come on.

About 2% of bare-handed attacks that occur in the United States each year result in either death or serious injury. Selling such a rare occurrence as a REASONABLE fear of death or serious bodily injury that it justifies shooting the puncher in the face 100% of the time is going to be a hard sell to a judge or jury. Of course, aggravating circumstances can exist that can tremendously escalate the risk of a punch beyond that low level of death or serious bodily injury--disparity in size/strength/fighting ability, sustained attack, disability of victim of the attack, exceptional vulnerability to injury of the victim of the attack--but you'd better be prepared to introduce evidence of such.

If you place small amounts of copper through the skin, deep enough to draw blood, and run power through them, even a small amount of current is enough to stop a human heart, let alone that of an equally-sized animal. Just a safety fact.

I wrote this a month ago: The issue leading to power failure was one thing and it should’ve been resolved before leaving port. The captain even ordered a report on it but didn’t follow up. However, the bigger issue was the uniquely Indian concept of jugaad. The prior all Indian crew had rigged the fuel system for the auxiliary diesel generators. Instead of using proper dedicated fuel supply booster pumps, they rigged the flushing pumps (which were only meant to be used for periodic maintenance) for the fuel supply. These maintenance pumps were not configured to auto-restart after power failure and the current all Indian crew operated the ship for seven months with this known defect. So when the ship lost power and restarted, the manual work around starved generators 3 and 4 of fuel, leading to a total lack of propulsion. x.com/plumbnick/stat…

@whooith Aren't you a fucking moron?

aren't you a white supremacist?

These cretins will look at a vast selection of waters, collected from bespoke, untouched, untainted wellsprings that dot across the entire planet, watersheds jealously and zealously guarded by men whose lives rely upon their continued function, and declare "ah yes! I deserve the bounty of nature! I deserve the products of their labour!" You deserve nothing. You are a slave, a wretch, the creeping, crawling dregs of society that sticks to my boot. Below even the peasant, as at least they know their damn place. You are the wastrel, the vagrant, ever demanding of everyone else and never giving back. Hungering, bleating, baying at the walls, nibbling on scraps while demanding jewels and finery and burning our fine oak doors for heat. Mewling in fury that you deserve all the posterity left for us as your own blood squanders every last drop. Possessed of free will, supposedly, yet you spend it in supplication to your betters, begging, pleading to be given what they work for without having to expend any effort. A proper society would see you castrated and tossed aside like the animal you are. If I could, I would tax you for every breath you took, slave. Freedom, liberty, equality, these are the rights of men and you are just a beast.

@Its_Ryuhebi @LeonMandala She's a fleshtuber riding Vtubing as a trend. Taking her advice on what to do as a vtuber is like listening to Katchii tell you how to afford food as a poor person.

@LeonMandala Like, literally calling Ama of all people a tourist is absolutely WILD when she's been around for longer than some people have been ALIVE Like her legitimity in this field is higher than anyone I can think of 😭

Calling people like AmaLee (or Gigguk not long ago) tourists reeks lack of self awareness and is something the most utterly useless braindead tourists would do.

Christopher Hitchens: ”In 1786, when the United States was barely a country, it was having its sailors taken as slaves by the Barbary states, the states of the Ottoman Empire and North Africa. Tripoli, shores of Tripoli. Ships stopped, its crews carried off into slavery. We estimate 1.5 million European and American slaves taken between 1750 and 1815. Jefferson and Adams went to their ambassador in London and said, why do you do this to us? The United States has never had a quarrel with the Muslim world of any kind. We weren't in the crusades. We weren't at war with Spain. Why do you do this to our people and our ships? Why do you plunder and enslave our people? The ambassador said very plainly, Mr. Abdul Rahman said, because the Quran gives us permission to do so, because you are infidels, and that's our answer. Jefferson said, well, in that case, I will send a navy which will crush your state, which he did. Islamic fundamentalism is not created by American democracy. It's a lie to say so. It's a masochistic lie, and it excuses those who are the real criminals, and blames us for the attacks made upon us.”

@OrevaZSN The biggest comorbidity in poverty stats is not having both parents in the home. And the biggest comorbidity in developmental failure is fatherlessness. You know what the best thing about actually having fathers at home is? It's cheap.

You reduce crime by eliminating poverty. You reduce crime with universal healthcare, public housing, livable wages, and free college. You reduce violence by creating happy, healthy communities that aren’t constantly fighting over basic needs and material resources.
