Bought up and prison labour to take over. Anything else would be very surprising

The removals are a product of the longstanding Safe Third Country Agreement, which requires anyone seeking refugee protection in Canada or the U.S. to claim asylum in the first of the two countries they reach.

I understand why they've had that agreement. However, it should've been obvious for some time now that maybe that's an agreement they should bin? It's blatantly obvious the us don't treat refugees/asylum seekers the way they deserve at the moment

It's a school bus test. Children are easily distracted and may run across the street. Doesn't mean that they deserve to die so Musk can sell poorly regulated cars

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balfour_Declaration and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Zionism

A lot to cover, but it started earlier than the 40s. He's partially correct, imo when the Zionist movement was growing (early 1900s) a large part of the colonist nations were quite content with having Jewish people leave their countries for Palestine without caring about what the results may be. Because they were absolutely antisemites. This emigration was supercharged in the 30s, because of obvious reasons. Then in 48 it was declared a state. Probably to try and wash their hands from their own behaviour in regards to Jewish people when it became public how fucked up the Nazis had treated them.

Jewish emigration had already started, and they were equally racist, so who gave a shit if Muslims lost their land.

Guess you could call it a co-op. Zionist wanted land, racists and antisemites wanted them out

So they asked beforehand if there was space for them, and they were told it was not. They were told by the police to exit the highway, and they did not.

Unless there's more to the story than what the article says, this is some seriously entitled behaviour

Yes we should have some sort of censorship. The vast, vast majority of people understand and see the bullshit these people are peddling. But some don't, and that ends up hurting innocent people. Why the fuck would you argue we should facilitate behaviour like this? https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/online-groups-pressuring-youth-self-harm-1.7107885

 

Anyone got suggestions for a good pair of headphones to use in the gym and/or for running? Cannot stand earbuds, have tried several, including very expensive ones and they just don't do it for me.

 
 

I keep getting this image when trying to open a link from dubz.co through football. Anyone got any tips on how to force it to open through Firefox instead?
