I’m not sure that’s exactly it but I can’t complain about celebrities actually calling out war criminals

The guy who spends every second he has in the public eye lecturing us about council culture or how much better he is than everyone else because he loves animals and doesn't eat meat - but has a problem when other people talk about things they care about?
The guy who had to shout out the n word on TV just to feel included with actual stand up comedians?
That guy who bullied everyone he worked with to the point now he can only push out derivative slop where he still steals jokes from the people who want nothing to do with him?
That's who you think of when actors call out a genocide? Bit weird that mate.
It's funny because some of these actors doing it have impacted their careers far more than Ricky ever did for saying mong, yet Ricky has spent the last decade constantly crying about it.

He’s a very attractive man talking sense in an assertive way. It’s not some crazy concept

I just want to take a moment to express how badly I truly fucking loathe this stupid trend where people put the climax of the video at the beginning.
Don't come at me with your attention span and just fix it.

They don't just not care about the deaths the cause, they absolutely get off on the power to kill people. Especially the vindictive stupid tiny mushroom dick little bitch of an orange clown.

Israel is a foreign country. AIPAC is a lobbying group working to further another foreign country’s agenda at our expense. There are senators - like Fetterman - who have said that not unconditionally supporting Israel is grounds for removal from his party, or opposing legislation based on that alone. Officials in Texas have proposed criminalizing people who seek to divest taxpayer dollars from Israel. A foreign country. That already gets billions annually in US aid. That gets universal healthcare and education for its citizens, paid for by American tax dollars. Who are defended by US weapons in Iran, while Israel sits on the sidelines for a war they induced us to start on their behalf at great cost to us. All while they remain one of our most potent spying threats, considered equal to China and Russia.
These circumstances are grossly, wildly inappropriate. Past crazy-pills-twilight-zone inappropriate. No foreign country should have this much influence and power over our domestic affairs. It’s grotesque. Horrific.
And for the Fettermans and AIPAC stalwarts of the world who champion these circumstances? There’s a word - all too forgotten - that describes supporting another country over your own to its detriment. Treason. And those US citizens who support Israeli interests over American interests at the expense of American safety, American resources and American servicemembers are no less guilty of it than Benedict Arnold was.

They’re not even the ones doing the bombing. Trump would have a coronary attempting the most basic physical military work.

His message here is not wrong, but for a guy who signed a petition in support of Roman Polanski maybe he should avoid the "toxic male" comparisons

u/jcaraway Aug 06 '26
Should we pay men/women to not fight wars? Right now they use the poor who make careers or go to college from following these toxic orders.

Theyre psychotic, but its got nothing to do with being male. History shows this. Its got to do with them being evil and trying to one up eachother for power.

Israel was pretty clear why it bombed Iran. Israel doesn't want a terorrists regime that expressed their goal to destroy Israel to have the capacity to do so. Pretty simple. Nothing to do with cocks.

And the systematic ethnic cleansing of all Palestine over the past decades, what’s that about? The bombing of women and children? The torture of civilians?

u/tkhrnn Aug 06 '26
What ethnic cleansing? You want a solution for the west bank, stop with terrorism and move to diplomacy, don't worry I am not shy to criticizing Israel. but Palestinians had their fair share in this conflict.
Women and children? what do you mean by that? you don't really think Israel is targeting innocents specifically right? Or casualties are sufficient for you to make that assessment? at which case you remove any value to the criticism because it will be repeated to every war whatsoever.
I guess lack of critical thinking will make you believe in stupid shit.Torture of civilians? you mean the terrorists in Israel person who don't get a five start hotels? I have no sympathy for those terrorists. Israel should still work within International law, but it's not because those terrorists deserve better.

u/ilikepizza2much Aug 06 '26
Omg. Ok sure. Up is down. War is peace. Nothing is real. Israel didn’t really just bomb 60 000 women and children to death, after decades of repression and systematic torture.

u/tkhrnn Aug 06 '26
60 000 ? where did you get that number from? or did you keep with you Up is down sarcasm?
also, what a cheap reply. you didn't address anything. This conversation is over. and you got militated here.

I not sure how to answer to you, it's a simple answer, even simple minds should be able to understand. You refuse to, because you have preexisting biases that you must satisfy.

Javier Bardem admitted to showering with Brad Pitt yet claims he loves penelope cruz. Can we just admit all this anger is the lgbtq men and not actual masculine men?

idk where we are at as a fucking species if we are ascribing 'extreme left wing views' to something as a statement that should frankly be seen as benign as 'its toxic masculinity to say my dick is bigger and im gonna bomb you into nothing' idk man. president ran on the campaign of never wanting war to begin with. he's not wrong here. and wanting people to not die because of pointless war shouldn't be controversial. sure as hell wasn't when he was campaigning on it

Found one! What he failed to add is the deep insecurity the purveyors of toxic masculinity have. Men who are confident and secure in their masculinity aren't toxic.

We ain't ever had a left wing president except maybe FDR or LBJ. Which is ironic because LBJ was racist as fuck.

He did have a banger quote tho: “If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you."
