Oh no! Will he do a Susan Collins frown and then keep supplying the very weapons he KNOWS will be used to do it again? He's so MEAN to the fascist apartheid regime! 😭

I think you'll find that actual experts, including the UN and Nobel peace prize laureate and Apartheid survivor Desmond Tutu disagree(d) with whether or not Israel is an Apartheid state and whether voting rights was the main problem in Apartheid South Africa 🀦

Israel is an Apartheid state because it by law gives full rights to Ashkenazi Jews while treating Mizrahim and the Palestinians in the occupied territories (which are effectively under Israeli control) as second class citizens and nonhumans, respectively.

English. I have ADHD and reading the same words that I'm hearing helps me not get distracted and miss stuff, whereas even small mistranslations into another language I understand is itself a distraction..

Max. They have some truly great content (along with a lot of bad, but whatevs), but they're REALLY bad at every other part of the whole streaming service thing:

Their player sucks, their selection of sub languages seems more or less random at times, their CC subs are so badly formatted and synced that they're literally worse than useless, and they keep recommending I watch the Bill Maher excrement every time I finish watching the latest episode of the excellent Last Week Tonight, with no option to block his smug face from my UI in any way.

Isn't it enough that you swindle the people of Czechia, you have to individually mock them? πŸ˜‰

Speaking as someone culturally obligated to make fun of Sweden and Swedes? Sure!

Speaking in any other capacity, though? Not quite πŸ˜„
