There has been a lot of discussion about whether Israel, a country w a nearly 20% Arab population with full legal rights, is an "apartheid" state.
But the accusation often comes from supporters of surrounding states and territories. So let’s look at some of those for comparison:

Hey @parkmobile why did you change the app so I can’t just sign in. It wants my email or cell number to send a link by email or text. Which is fine. But it’s not working so I am unable to use the app. It won’t send a link.

Taylor Swift probably wouldn't put up with a guy banging a pornstar while she cared for their newborn. Just a hunch.

My dad, who is a moderate Muslim, finally expressed his concern and asked me, 'Why are you supporting this genocide?'
He mentioned that he's stopped looking at his phone because he can no longer bear to watch videos of Palestinian children being bombed by Israel.
I replied, 'I empathize with the suffering, and it's not easy for me either.'
Then I showed him a photo, and we both agreed on the gravity of the situation in Palestine.
I then informed him that the photo was actually of a Yemeni child pulled from the rubble resulting from a Saudi bombing in Yemen.
I pointed out that Israel has allegedly killed 7,000 Palestinians, while the Saudis have killed at least 150,000 Yemeni Muslims. Some estimates suggest upto 300,000.
How can we call the current conflict a 'genocide' when what the Saudis did is hardly even discussed by Muslims? Don’t get me started on 200,000 Muslims killed by Bashar Al Asad in Syria.
He responded that if that's the case, he also disagrees with what the Saudis did. I replied, 'How convenient. Nearly half a MILLION fellow Muslims have been killed by other Muslims, and you didn't even know about it. Yet when Israel retaliates against a terrorist organization that has killed, raped, and maimed 1,500 of its citizens, the whole Muslim world reacts?'
It seems to have less to do with preserving Muslim lives and more to do with a religious fantasy of hostility toward Jews.

I try to keep my social media PG-13, but even PG-13 movies get one F-word. So…
Go *fuck* yourself, you weak-minded tool of Russian war criminals.

The world didn't need to see images of those slaughtered by ISIS in the 2015 Paris terror attacks to believe the French government.
The world didn't need to see images of those murdered by ISIS in the 2017 Barcelona attack to believe the Spanish government.
But after 1,400 Israelis were raped, beheaded, burned, tortured, kidnapped, and murdered, Israel's government is still forced to hold a screening of raw footage of Hamas' crimes against humanity to the international press.
And in case you were wondering, even this will not be enough.

Since folks are referencing this old dispute in connection with @FCC's #netneutrality news, it's time to re-up this piece.

Extremists are pushing forward revisionist history. They insult us in an attempt to gaslight us, and we will not stand for it.

How can we connect every American to digital opportunity?
✅Prioritize projects in truly unserved areas
✅Protect against waste & fraud
✅Ensure fair competition among #broadband providers.

America is on the cusp of a once-in-a-generation achievement: connecting every corner of the U.S.
Cable ISPs have been hard at work extending their networks to communities across the country, check out a few examples of recent projects in the Midwest bit.ly/3TWjXIA

Siri, show me a shit-tier human being
If unarmed #AshliBabbitt got what was coming to her for “refusal to comply”—as progressives routinely and contemptuously insist—then why didn’t #TyreNichols get what was coming to him for the same reason? Is it because Ashli Babbitt is white and Tyre Nichols is black?

It's been said before but can't be repeated enough: if you told a Republican in 1992 that the future of the party was parroting talking points distributed by a KGB Colonel trying to conquer a democratic, prospective NATO member... there might've been violence.
