Israel has been in open breach of the 3rd Geneva convention since 1948. Nothing they’ve done has been legal under international law.

Use Kelvin then, 314°K is a way bigger number

The political alignment is entirely relevant to Miles O’Brien.

Because western civilisation is not meant to exist there.

Right, so uni fees don’t need raising, they need funding given back.

domestic undergraduate fees remaining frozen since 2012

Not untrue, but they like tripled or quadrupled fees a few years before then, so I’m pretty sure it still accounts for inflation.

It is definitely a lot easier than it used to be, and the horror stories tend to be the attention grabbing ones, so are more often seen. I think we’ll see a lot more acceptance for the new generation of teens and young adults discovering themselves now it’s genx/millennials raising kids rather than boomers/genx.

Always been partial to the classic

Your position is based on your assumption that unionists in northern Ireland are representative of Irish people rather than English people, despite an ongoing race war over their englishness. Catholic and protestant communities are still walled off from each other to maintain the relative peace. The idea that imperialism and colonialism are some unimportant detail of the past is preposterous, they’re ongoing issues that make up the core of northern Irish politics.

You don’t belong here, reactionary. Would you tell First Nations Americans that the white Europeans occupying their lands are real Americans, representative of them? Do you tell Palestinians that their occupiers are Palestinians?

Like I don’t understand why you’d bring such an obviously ignorant take to the table - do you genuinely know nothing of why it’s Ireland and Northern Ireland? Do you know nothing of the Troubles? Do you think the violence and ethnoreligious lines just disappeared when the good Friday agreement was signed? Do you not know about them because your education was inexpensive?

Not sure if you heard, but Ireland had this big thing over the English living there. Northern Irish protestants are English.

right wing vs left wing conspiracies

No, it’s a joke about dinosaur taxonomy. A statistics joke would still fit though, this is science memes, not dinosaur memes.

He reprised his original appearance in The Chats’ video for Dine n Dash, too.

No, the joke is that crocodiles aren’t dinosaurs despite looking like them and being around at the same time, just closely related, while birds technically are dinosaurs, just not the big lizards of 64 million years ago.

Go into the notes of almost any of their releases and you’ll find borderline schizophrenic screeds full of hate and bigotry. Racism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, thinking the Harry Potter series is good, all kinds of shit. Also, at least once she said she was going to jail because she was caught cracking something but kept putting out releases without any disruption. Here’s one from the time she was accused of being a trans woman (cw: all of the above)

It’s ridiculous that the author thinks they can tell other games to follow D&D when they’ve only looked at D&D. Not only does this update lag well behind most TTRPGs, it doesn’t actually bring it up to date - species has its own issue of being inaccurate in a game rampant with half-lineages, which is why other games moved to terms like lineage and ancestry instead. These are discussions people have had because of the problems of D&D, it hasn’t been a trailblazer since the release of 3.0.

Not sure why you’d interpret validity as applying to the concept of it being an idea rather than the idea’s relation to reality.

I know they’re both called classes, but martial arts and higher education aren’t remotely comparable in their content or methods. Also you seem to be arguing against yourself by saying martial arts classes (or debate clubs) won’t help you in a real fight (or argument).
This is exactly why I say ideas don’t have to be treated as valid because they exist - your ideas exist but are just a mess of half formed, contradictory assumptions. The only reason to show your ideas at all is as a demonstration of really terrrible ones, and nobody needs to be forced to defend them to prove their lack of validity.

You don’t have to treat ideas as valid just because they exist. Study them, sure, but students don’t owe you a debate on whether women should have rights or black people are inherently criminal. There is no reason to expose them to such hate just you can say it’s been fairly debated like all opinions are equal.
