Anything is better than the seal on a blue sheet

It’s a religious screed. Not a history paper.

Because in the US religion has largely been split along racial and ethnic lines. The Black Churches here are institutions that grew out of both the slave and free black congregations in early US history. These differed from other churches by emphasizing freedom and liberation as rewards for faith. It’s also why the Southern Baptist Convention is separate from the northern one.

It has nothing to do with Jesus. It has everything to do with modern history.

Oh, honey.

Hey, you can’t use the cigarette emoji. That’s ours!

Ah, so it’s the old Catholics vs Protestants again.

I dunno. The 200k payment looks pretty suspicious even to a lefty like me.

Israel has killed more Palestinians than Hamas has killed Israelis. Punished a population is a war crime. Israel should really know about this

It’s such a good show. Patti Lupone was in the most recent revival with a gender swapped cast. So amazing.

MICHELLE!

Israeli goals of security for peace don’t work.

The Romans. Trajan sacked Jerusalem after a 5 month of siege to put out the Great Jewish Revolt (70CE). That’s when the Second Temple was destroyed. Trajan’s column shows Roman soldiers carting off a giant menorah in commemoration.

Palestine is from the Latin for Philistia, the lands of another ancient Canaanite tribe.

Shit’s old all around.

Lemmy doesn’t have my niche communities. Stay mad.

A lot of people are going to quote the poem on the Statue of Liberty forgetting the government didn’t want the statue and a socialist wrote the poem that won the contest.

Not really. If it was that important we’d still be leaving babies in the woods to be eaten by wolves. We’re not neolithic barbarians anymore.

That sounds like eugenics.

I don’t see how European guilt for allowing a genocide excuses another.

They didn’t need to question anyone.

Eat shit and live. Just don’t let him breathe on me.

Whelp. Guess we bit off more than we could chew on that one. I was convinced he wouldn’t get it.
