In fact, 6 of the 10 worst places on Earth for gun-related deaths are either U.S. territories or states: Mississippi, Louisiana, and Alabama have gun death rates even higherthan in countries the media and people online like to label as violent cesspools. Namely, those three states have more gun-related deaths than Haiti and Mexico. Mississippi has a gun death rate of 28.5 deaths per year per 100,000 people. According to the Commonwealth Fund, that’s almost double the firearm death rate in Haiti, where gang wars push people to starvation.

Yes

Ain’t that just the way

It’s a fucking meme

So then it means nothing? I’m supposed to take away nothing from this very-clearly-designed-as-an-infographic meme? Alright.

‘prec the link

What is the source of this infographic? It would behoove the point to cite the source / sources used

I haven’t seen those videos and I’d like to see them to be informed. Pls link.

I just know that even the US struggles with targeted ballistics not hitting civilians and I think any focus on that argument weakens her response. Israel’s mandatory conscription makes those standalone sentences mean even less.

The call to action of boycotting Israel at the end is the valuable part of this quote.

I wouldn’t die on the hill of “Hezbollah is not targeting civilians or civilian infrastructure” for the fact that they do not have the rocketry capabilities for targeted strikes. Isreal clearly doesn’t either.

Cause it’s a fucking dope sticker.

Petulant children

No arguments with you my friend. People are feeling bad despite traditional indicators saying otherwise, which may have been a factor in the piece of trash’s decision to do what they did. Hopelessness and seeking fame is a bad combo

I independently checked Mondoweiss using Media Bias a few months ago because it was posted elsewhere and I had not heard of it before, but was disturbed to see the extra reasoning behind the rating.

It’s for sure questionable at best, the Wikipedia discussion someone else posted was enlightening on that, but “designation as a hate-group by pro-Israel” sources doesn’t really mean much when sources like the ADL equivocate anti-Zionism and anti-Semitic rhetoric in bad faith.

Again, I love the bot, but wanted to state something to be conscious of

It’s probably more a mix of desperation (likely caused by economic/labor woes) and a desire for fame.

It’s about the bias rating. Using explicitly biased sources when rating a source makes for a bad rating.

I love this, but I would like to state that Media Bias Fact Check seems to have a pro-Israel bias.

• Overall, we rate Mondoweiss as Left Biased and Questionable due to the blending of opinion with news, the promotion of pro-Palestinian and anti-zionist propaganda, occasional reliance on poor sources, and hate group designation by third-party pro-Israel advocates.

I feel like “blending of opinion with news” and “occasional reliance on poor sources” is all that really need be said.

It’s a rite of passage to waste an hour of game time on a puzzle involving a locked door and a “thinking outside of the box” solution.

Meh, he’ll probably be remembered more like Truman or Eisenhower

Good last line there

Came back with receipts! I love it

Now I’m curious what was cropped out of the bottom there

At what point is that just acceptance of their shitty policies? Is that too passive of a stance?
