    Anti-semitism comes for the best of us. Before you know it, you too will have sympathy for kids with missing limbs. You gotta be careful out there.

      You just got to hate harder, like push for children to starve because you won’t be able to recoup the money that was already set aside to feed the children… so instead think of how you could embezzle that money and watch them starve

      Just consider those kids “untermenschen” and yourself “ubermenschen” and you’re there! Which is clearly the Israeli point of view,

        Ugh, but I’m already busy yelling out “ES IST ZEIT FÜR REICH!” & “WIR MÜSSEN DIE LATINOS AUSROTTEN!”. I almost pulled a leg muscle the other day goose-stepping in Chicago.

        insert Simpsons meme I’m gonna guess you’re right, and that I was wrong, and I will say that I won’t remember the right one the next time.

            Gee, thanks for confusing me even more. How can both be correct? Isn’t one towards yourself, and one towards others?

              Empathy is more personal emotion, while sympathy is more intellectual agreement.

              I empathize with my family, I sympathize with the Palestinians.

                Sympathy is when someone is hurting and you feel bad about that. Empathy is when someone is hurting and you feel hurt yourself.

    This is such a weird timeline. Or maybe not, I guess I could also imagine Mr. Rogers doing what Ms. Rachel’s been doing.

    The New York Times lost it’s prestige a while ago, it’s now on par with The New York Post, Washington Post, etc… Vouge does better quality work. The AP, LA Times, even Wired gets better exclusives.

    “The New War Crimes” works better out loud than it does written down (say it out loud with an emphasis on crimes) but is so apt I’d like to see it catch on.
