1·22 hours agoThere are far more in times of active conflict like now, including rockets from places like Iran and Yemen, people especially those with resources don’t want to hear sirens in their cosmipolitan city, they don’t want to go hide in a bomb shelter in their basement even if it’s unlikely they won’t get hit
Wait until you find out it is normal to tip your landlord there
If I were to guess the primary concern of those leaving it would probably be to go some place that doesn’t regularly have rockets fired at it
The question came up last year when Republicans floated the idea of pushing Trump into the role after Kevin McCarthy was voted out. Just as was the case with Trump, Musk could become speaker because you don’t actually need to be a House member to hold the position.
The U.S. Constitution’s only requirement for the speaker of the House is that the person is chosen by the House of Representatives. Thus, Musk could serve as the House speaker if he got the support and votes to do so.
it is not bad journalism though, there is a big difference between trying to increase your clickthrough and bad journalism, it doesn’t change the meaning of the title when you say slam vs saying criticize, putting more exciting words in the titles you could maybe make an analogy to all the YouTubers who started making Mr Beast face in the thumbnail, the video or in this case the article is the same, they are just trying to get a higher click through rate and I really can’t blame them, they are not making money hand over fist doing this
Definitely a wait and see for the motive, could very easily be an interpersonal thing vs a killing the bosses thing
it is irresistible to the redditor mind to complain about the word slam in a title of an article
The Russians do not like Israel
This is not even remotely true, you should probably read up on Russian Israeli relations, while they do engage with groups like Hamas and ally themselves with states opposed to Israel like Iran, Russia and Israel have a very close relationship

or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel–Russia_relations if you prefer
it is interesting it is TASS reporting this though, you would think they wouldn’t bother writing about this unless it was in the Russian state’s interest to do so
can’t say I’m a huge fan of Nick Cruse or the rest of RBN, but a graph’s a graph I guess
they are thinking you can arrest anyone for any amount of time for opposing the state of Israel and recieve almost no pushback for doing so and they are largely right
nvm they are transcribed in this article
and from this article
Following administration’s response, the University’s chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP) released a counterstatement addressing widespread claims of the posters’ antisemitic intentions.
“Antisemitism is bigotry or hatred against Jewish people on the basis of their identity and we unequivocally oppose it,” the JVP statement read. “It is not, however, antisemitic to criticize the Israeli government and military that is committing war crimes.”

that is profoundly ignorant
who are you telling to fuck off? if your family was also wronged by Japan why would you say that?
It would be convenient if every article just included the vote counts, but I don’t think it’s particularly malicious that this one doesn’t, it’s mostly focused on calling out the one democrat
Does it bother you the coverage is “queer liberal does something wrong” when Republicans poisoned this major funding bull?
no not really, I think it’s completely fair to single someone like this out 🤷
It’s something Marco Rubio has been pushing for years and he was nominated for a cabinet position, so I guess he gets rewarded with this
I think if most people read VOA they would start thinking about American propaganda differently, when it’s done by MSM it’s a lot less crude than what VOA is pumping out, funnily enough they are one of the few places to have a mastodon account

they also publish in like 50 different languages

VOA is analogous to any other state media ie RT, CGTN (not debating that VOA’s credibility/accuracy vs them)
it’s reporting that aligns with the interest of a certain business/political class that is funding it and most Americans would rather just read corporate MSM media than American state affiliated media so they don’t bother reading it
They also have security deposits on top of that
