  • Also interesting because in German progressive/queer feminist groups use the term

    “Weiblich gelesen” (literal: read female, meaning: assumed to be female)

    If we want to refer to someone who looks like a women by conservative standards but about whom we don’t know if they actually identify as a women.

    “Weib” (degrading term for “women/wife” derived from the word “weiblich” (female)) on the other hand is considered very rude and only used by conservative/sexist people.

    Just find it interesting which words are differently connotated in which language.

    Thats a strawman you arguing against. I never said anything about supporting zionists. My point is and was that throwing out Hamas supporters and being okay with genocide (slaughtering and starving innocent civilians) are two different things.

    The same as throwing out supporters of the the right wing Israeli government would not be the same as being okay with slaughtering or kidnapping of innocent civilians.

    I am not arguing that the action of throwing Hama’s supoorters out is good or bad, or justified or unjustified, I argue that its a different question from if you support the warcrimes the Israelis commit or not.

    Commented under a post with the headline “genocide is no longer a red line for the left party of Germany”

    Content was: they kicked out a Hamas supporter who denied Israels right to exist.

    Now am Banned from .ml because I said it can be argued whether its the right thing to kick hamas supporters who deny Israels right to exist from the left party of Germany or not, but framing this as “genocide is no longer a red line for the left party of Germany” seems a bit populistic.

    Apparently that’s racism (rule 1)

    Don’t mind the tankies there, you don’t miss out on anything :)


  • Wtf. Hard to believe this is real… Do only certain far right private schools do nationalistic stuff like that or is it a common phenomenon over there, like are public funded schools allowed to do bs like this as well?

    EDIT: WWWWTTTTTFFFF

    " All states except Nebraska, Hawaii, Vermont, and Wyoming require a regularly scheduled recitation of the pledge in public schools.[13] Many states give a variety of exemptions from reciting the pledge, such as California which requires a “patriotic exercise” every day, which would be satisfied by the Pledge, "

    To be honest its a miracle you guys didn’t turn facist earlier with stuff like that.
