Boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates
by pale.emperor innow i think i may have seen everything.. "boy crowned prom queen by schoolmates".
i'm all for people being entitled to wear what they want and live as they please as long as they're not harming anyone but - a male prom queen?
maybe there wasn't much competition in his school?.

Would You Stop Buying A Product Because of Political Differences?
by minimus inwould you stop buying nike products because you didn’t like their politics?
conversely, would you give business to a company because you liked their political stand on a matter?
would you stop watching an entertainer because you disagree with their political perspectives?

Like thousands of other men I have boycotted Gillette for their misandrist advertising campaign.
It is satisfying to see that they wiped $8billion off the value of company last week.

If they used their resources to provide good homes and medical care for the Palestinians, the wind might have left the war balloon by now.
Such naivety is incredible.

The reason Zionists were attacking British targets was our caution in not permitting too many Jews to return en masse and overwhelm the native Palestinians.
France funded anti-British terrorism in Palestine in the 40s even while we were fighting to liberate France from the Nazis. See Line in the Sand by James Barr.

Jews were unique among all ethnic groups in the world in 1948.
In country after country for centuries they have been singled out as 'the other' and persecuted. The Holocaust was just the latest of countless examples. The UN made a humanitarian decision that they should be given the right to move to the British Mandate in Palestine.
The problems have originated with the homicidal hatred they encountered from their new neighbours. The best place in the Middle East to be an Arab is inside Israel.

It's a particular problem in the UK among supporters of the Left wing opposition party led by Jeremy Corbyn. Dave Rich has written an excellent book on the topic - 'The Left's Jewish Problem'.
The left have were traditionally supporters of Israel. Then they began to define themselves in terms of support for the 'oppressed minority'. Israel began to be equated with the Apartheid movement in South Africa and Palestine became the cause celebre of western socialism.
They hide behind the lie that they only oppose Zionism and not Jews but when you dig into the journals and books intended for socialist audiences it is obvious that anti-zionism is nothing but a veil for Jew-hatred.
Incidentally I have never spoken with a conspiracy theorist who was not also an anti-semite.

Yes of course Israel has a right to exist.
The case for a homeland for the Jewish diaspora was already strong before the Holocaust. Opposition to Israel by Islamic nations was met by astonishing success by Israel in 1948 and '67.
Israel's reaction to ongoing threats from its neighbours has at times been excessive and cruel resulting in terrible suffering that results in more hatred, more attacks and even more harsh reactions and so on....
Here is an interesting thought experiment though. If Hamas and Hezbollah unilaterally ceased all hostilities and put all its weapons beyond use tomorrow there would be peace and increasing prosperity all round. If Israel did the same it would be wiped off the map and once again become a victim of genocide.
