Extremely obvious troll post

Hey look, you’re being a purposely-obtuse ass again. I’d say you’re just this stupid, but since you’re all over these comments you clearly have an agenda to push. Luckily no one here is buying your bullshit lmao

The fact that you don’t even care about the Palestinian apartheid, and now genocide, speaks volumes enough about you honestly. Have fun defending genocide.

Popularity =/= Democratically elected.

And of course Hamas is seen as popular. Anyone would be popular when the opposition (Israel) is indiscriminately bombing civilian targets en masses. Or even massacring them just for running up to collect food aid. Food that Palestinians in Gaza are utterly desperate for due to famine like conditions in the region caused by Israel.

Aid that Israel has been purposely and continuously shutting off from the civilian population.

People of Gaza elected Hamas

There hasn’t been an election in Gaza since 2006 and your purposely-obtuse ass knows it.

If Israel wasn’t committed to upholding an apartheid state, and now genocide, maybe groups like Hamas wouldn’t exist. Which again, is a group that Israel itself propped up and allowed to take power in Gaza.

Hamas likely wouldn’t even exist right now if not for the failure of Israeli leadership. Specifically Netanyahu’s repeated moves to prop up Hamas in order to sabotage a two state solution. The issue of Hamas is almost entirely Israel’s own fault.

YouTube and Instagram have features that are in direct competition with TikTok. YouTube has even been more aggressive in promoting themselves as the TikTok alternative. On top of that the US government has an incentive to keep them (Google and Meta) happy; since the US routinely spies on its own (and other countries) citizens through these companies.

I’d love to see any evidence of TikTok acting on behalf of any country (especially China) as a hostile actor, or even any evidence of legitimate election interference. If anything banning TikTok is a significantly more hostile response from the US since it silences another forum for free speech.

Social media is a cancer, but this ban is such obvious propaganda. The only reason TikTok was banned because the US government doesn’t have free reign to spy on its users like it does with Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.

If the US government truly cared about social media and it’s affects they would be regulating all of it. Instead they’re trying to ban TikTok while screaming their heads off about China every chance they get. And that’s before mentioning the extremely shady way they passed this; attaching it as a rider through a government ‘aid’ bill.

Ye, but they never SEE the check. So that makes everything ok and above board. No need to looks at these books mister lawman: they’re all clean 😎

I’ll agree to that partially. Unless the proposal actually passes it’s just the shitty legislating of another shitty government official.

I just wanted to point out the Russian States’ history with women’s rights; because it’s not like these people gain power in a vacuum.

This is the same country that decriminalized Domestic Violence leading to a fall in reporting from women as a result.

People who haven’t read the article aside: I do not believe the Russian State member has women’s best interest in mind with this proposal.

For full context, there was an event where several YouTubers/Online personalities met the pope. I couldn’t say the specific reason for doing so, but during their visit each of the groups presented a gift. In MatPats case he gave the Pope a copy of Undertale.

Then a lot of people started to clown on MatPat for giving the Pope a copy of Undertale. He made a response defending his gift choice, and honestly it wasn’t that weird of a gift. It’s just funny to me personally because the situation is so low stakes but became a meme because of MatPat’s response.

Everybody repeat after me: Thank you MatPat

I stop reading after that since those are made up words.

Ahh, so you’re a complete fucking moron then. Checks out since you’re defending Andrew “I moved to Romania so I wouldn’t be charged with rape” Tate.
