A school division in my city just had to apologize for showing an anti-colonialism message in the context of Canadian colonialism and genocide of indigenous north americans at some event because some absolutely victim brained zionists complained about it assuming it was about Israel, so sadly this situation doesn't surprise me

It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

"Colonialism and genocide is bad."
...5 min later...
"We sincerely apologize to any Zionist viewers this may have offended."
basically exactly how it went down lol
I guess libs found a loophole to stop pretending they give a shit about colonialism.
American genocide is bad too
Zionist supports anytime anyone describes the situation there.
They don't like when pointing out yeah that's true too and should be addressed
it's antisemitic to exist as a palestinian. hope this helped!
Wtf they always let reactionaries roll them over while showing the strongest contempt towards leftists
dictatorship of the bourgeoisie in a nutshell
Because they are reactionary themselves and/or do not actually care about anything.
They care about those juicy profits
Because leftists don't have any cultural or polticial power, despite what the fascists in power say.
The very deliberate conflation of zionism and antisemitism by Zionist orgs in an attempt to defend their genocide has so much to answer for.
The willingness of msm to uncritically accept this conflation says it all.
Fuck you, Weather Channel!
I'll no longer be using you seldomly throughout the month to confirm what I already knew from looking out the window.
all u really need anyways is weather.gov (fixed link)
It has all the data. It's the data almost all other weather prediction services use anyway. Weather.gov gang raise up. I love spending hours on there digging through historic data too. Of course usually that just makes me 
since climate change is so apparent even in the basic data. But it's fun anyway
I am a huge fan of weather.gov. I can get all the data and forecasts I want without a single ad. All the other weather services use the same data, so there is no huge benefit to using anything else.
That doesn't work, it needs to be https://weather.gov in the ()
thanks. lemmy is really weird with copy/paste for some reason
ah, glorious 2004 web design, how i miss thee
fuck the weather channel for caving to this fucking stupid made up bullshit.
excuse you, that's The Weather Company® and its consumer brand The Weather Channel™ to you
I've never seen corporations so cucked.
The dictionary should have this exchange under the definition for "spineless"
Lmao, just start pretending any shit is antisemitic and then call out everyone from that
Yes Mr. ZionNazi. We didn't mean to offend the Nazis. Please donct remove our broadcasting liscense. Can't have the Diaper Force members in shit their pants on the subway now. Public health concern.
I'm sure links have been linked, but I'd like to get a solidarity keffiyeh, also they just look nice. I'd like the cool pro playtime black n white and if I were to get some where would be somewhere that my money is well spent? I'm a big fan of things that are like scarves
i feel like this was done with the purpose of setting a precedent whereby other companies can't do the same thing but claim any sort of innocence or ignorance.
this shit is way too scripted to be real
