If your first thought when hearing about a tragedy is "How can I use this to my advantage?", you might be a bad person.

Maybe this is why Biden seems to be pivoting somehow.

Krono ,

Biden tells Israel to “knock it off with the war crimes, Jack!”. Then he sprinkles in a little genocide denial and goes back to pushing for a $100billion war package.

What a sad state of affairs we live in that this could be considered a pivot.

Oh, the story adds up; I could have predicted every part of it.

It’s just not a truthful story. The numbers were fudged in the adding up to provide the desired result.

Well well well is anyone surprised?

Good read. A part that gets little mention:

Johns responded by suing Durant for malicious prosecution, and a judge denied Durant’s attempt to have the case dismissed. But Johns, who was 18 and had no attorney, ultimately dropped the case due to emotional and financial strain.

This was followed by another local activist, Marc Stout, filing a lawsuit against Durant for defamation. Stout wasn’t at the protest, but he claims Durant showed up at his house at 9 o’clock one night to confront him about YouTube videos he’d made in which he talked about the protest. As of May 2022, Durant had not been served with Stout’s lawsuit.

If only these lawsuits went through. These are things that keep people from progressing their story. A defamation lawsuit could have kept her from continuing an alleged charade.

you’re just supposed to lick that AIPAC boot, not deep throat it …

Zorque ,

Even AIPAC is getting a little worried about how far Israel is going.

The [email protected] community linked directly to the congressman’s Web page about it:

He seems to be quite proud of it by the title.

If you’ve ever wondered what you’d do in a genocide, the answer is whatever you’re doing now.

wwiii has started. Help people.

Democrats should introduce a bill to expel Republicans.

Hear hear.

dylanmorgan , to Work Reform in Medieval Times Workers End Their Strike After 9 Months On The Picket Line, The Fight Isn't Over

Seems a bit on the nose that workers at a restaurant themed around the feudal period are being treated like serfs.

bob_lemon ,

For a moment I thought Medieval Times was a news outlet.

dingleberry , to Work Reform in Medieval Times Workers End Their Strike After 9 Months On The Picket Line, The Fight Isn't Over

The workers’ union said it had submitted an unconditional offer to return to work and that Medieval Times had accepted.

Well that’s just the opposite of what the title says.

GoFastBoots ,

The fight isn’t over because the castle retailated against 3 of the striking workers by refusing to bring them back on.

I used to work at one of these places, also as a knight, and the conditions/pay/treatment were deplorable.

I got fired for being unable to perform after being injured by one of our horses. Of course, I was young and more stupid at the time, not knowing my rights, and just moved on with my life. It was a fun 18 months though.
