Everyone’s cool with my hatred for Christianity but they’re pretty touchy about Islam.
I'm cool with capitalism, but agreed on the rest.

I don't love any of the major three but I'll take that over Islam.

Because the Holocaust.

Weird how a genocide won't work like that when they're brown though.

You don't get it. In life, and world politics, you pick your fights wisely.

There was absolutely no point for Trump to make it so public other than to back up one of his campaign promises. It's causing complete chaos in the region.

Have you been watching the news? The bears mom is Israeli, his dad is Palestinian. Why poke him for no apparent reason other than to puff out your own chest - damn all of the people living in that region that could be negatively affected, just because Trump woke up a sleeping bear.

Google what's going on over there since Trump made this idiotic decision. Total chaos.

It's been chaos over there for years.

But it had been lightly simmering for quite some time. Trump turned it back into a full on boil for no reason at all.

Thank you for ignoring any kind of long term effects as I requested.

I never said it was a smart move, but it is disingenuous as **** to blame the violence on Trump and not the Palestinians actually committing the violence. Kill the bear. If you let the bear control you, it will never stop seeing how far it can take it. Dangerous precedent that you clearly don't get and I don't expect you to. Donalds just don't get on with things like logic or nuance.

I'll choose Judaism simply because they don't proselytize. Still a ****ty religion, but at least they aren't annoying on my time. Of course all it took was a schism over some guy who got ganked for their religion to become a ****ing nuisance.

So I guess...
