@mk LOL I dont need to watch a 3 hour podcast video to find out what I already know, that your a moron.

@mk

Or maybe the evidence is week to support most of the claims, I dont know cause I didnt watch some dumbass podcast and you provided no evidence, so I can only speculate... all I know is from the evidence I do have the way you described it already has enough clues to know it isnt true... beyond that its a waste of my time to invest any more time into it when its clearly untrue already on the surface.

@mk

Ok so yea that, at least how you explained it, would rule out that the isralis did it at all.

> 01:26:59 two jewish men driving a urban-moving-truck filled with explosives

Based on the pattern of the explosion it would make absolutely no sense that the towers came down by a truck at ground level

@ambihelical More activity I'd imagine. spent 4 or 5 months of that time SCUBA diving 3 times a day.

@mk If thats the case I know nothing about that. I did work for FEMA during the twin tower investigation though, but that isnt a topic that was touched.

If the point is just to tell me israel sucks and I shouldnt like them... dont worry you dont need to convince me of that. Jews are great people and have nothing against them, love them in fact. But Israel as a government (and to a lesser extent their culture) is one i have a pretty bitter taste in my mouth after the last 1.5 years I spent there.

Tell me you are in #Canada without telling me you are in canada.

@mk You are thinking of Saudi Arabia, no relationship to Israel/Palestine.

So just weighed myself for the first time in like a year and a half, basically before i left to go to Israel (which i now left).... Lost 30 lbs in that time, thats a nice surprise.

@futurebird I largely agree, deplatforming isnt inherently good or bad, it depends on who is the target.

I do think there is legitimate concern that deplatforming is frivilous and abusive right now from both sides in many cases. That said im not sure deplatofrming is the issue, its more of a symptom. The real issue is just the toxic polarization we have in society that is causing cancel culture from both ends on everything under the sun.

I am not worried about "the rich getting paid to have babies"... and I wont speak to if 55% of 60K is a good limit or not, I am glad there is some limit at least. My point is, government assistance should be limited to those who dont make enough to afford it themselves, and even then should be conditional in such a way that improves the problem so they shouldnt need to ask for assistance in the future (ideally).

In my view if you need government assistance you should get it, this is regardless of if you have a baby.. but it should also be conditional on you commiting to additional training or education (paid for by the government) in a bid to try to raise your income so you wont need to come back and ask for money again.... regardless I certainly dont think it should be universal.

As for the US having a hard time solving it.. thats mostly because everyone argues so much and is so polarized reaching compromises on any issue is damn near impossible.

I am perfectly ok for the paid leave to be paid for by the government **if** it is limited to people who are of low enough income that they need that help. If we are talking middle class and they are such low income they need government help to take a maternity leave then I'd say there are larger economic problems at play.. for lower class its understandable, though again in a healthy economy the lower class wouldnt be that large.

@zardozWrex

No one is claiming the current system is perfect as is... But saying the current system is broken isnt a good argument for this particular claim to a solution.

@QasimRashid Thats a stretch to say the least...

Paid leave is assuming that a company has an obligation to pay you for your own life choices... the company isnt having the baby, it doesnt want or benefit from the baby, why should it have to fund your activities.

Now dont get me wrong I am 1200% behind the fact that if youare financially struggling with a kid the state should help you.. but I dont think a company should have any obligation to encourage you to have kids... if the company wants to as an incentive to hiring great.

Now I would agree that a new mother should have a right to unpaid leave that is short and reasonable without it being cause to fire someone... but financially, that baby is YOUR responsibility, not the companies.
