You will be held to higher and higher and soon impossible to maintain ethical standards by the very mob you currently wish to please. Then you will make a mistake, and they will devour you. With glee. Please take this warning seriously. I liked you.

I reread this every year.
I cry like a baby every year.
Todd Beamer died a father, husband, and hero.
Todd: Hello… Operator… listen to me. I can’t speak very loud. This is an emergency. I’m a passenger on a United flight to San Francisco. Our plane has been hijacked.
Lisa: I understand. Can they see you?
Todd: No. There are three that we know of. They have knives — razor knives, like box cutters. Someone announced from the cockpit there was a bomb. It sounded fake.
Lisa: Your name?Todd: Todd Beamer. United Flight 93.Todd: They killed one passenger in first class. They forced most of us back. Fourteen of us here. Five flight attendants. The guy with the bomb ordered us to sit on the floor.
Lisa: Are you okay?
Todd: We’re going down… wait. No. We’re leveling off. We changed directions. We’re flying east again.
Todd: A guy named Jeremy called his wife. She told him two planes hit the World Trade Center. Lisa, is that true?
Lisa: I have to tell you the truth. It’s very bad. Both towers are gone. A third plane hit the Pentagon. Our country is under attack. I’m afraid your plane may be part of their plan.
Todd: Oh God. Lisa, will you do something for me? Call my wife and my kids. Promise me you’ll call.
Lisa: I promise.
Todd: Our home number is… You have the same name as my wife. Lisa. We’ve been married ten years. She’s pregnant with our third child. Tell her I love her. I’ll always love her. We have two boys — David, he’s 3, and Andrew, he’s 1. Tell them their daddy loves them and he is so proud of them. The baby is due January 12th. I saw an ultrasound. We still don’t know if it’s a girl or a boy.
Lisa: I’ll tell them. I promise, Todd.(Lisa patches in the FBI.)
Agent: Todd, your plane is on a course for Washington. Best guess is the White House or the Capitol.
Todd: I understand. I’ll be back.
Todd: Everyone knows this isn’t a normal hijacking. We have decided we will not be pawns in their plot.
Lisa: What are you going to do?
Todd: Four of us are going to rush the one with the bomb. Then the cockpit. A stewardess is getting boiling water. We’ll take them out.
Todd: Would you pray with me?They pray the Lord’s Prayer. Then: Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for thou art with me.
Todd: God help me. Jesus help me.Are you guys ready? Let’s Roll.

Calling a random Jewish person “filthy”, telling them to “go home”, and mocking their physical features is textbook racism.
If this happened to almost any other minority group, there would be wall-to-wall outrage and condemnation.
Hatred normalised against any group eventually poisons society as a whole.

If you spend all day absorbing nothing but news headlines from X, you will become so mentally decayed that after a while you are barely a human anymore. You will be in a constant state of DEFCON 1.
Everyone is all fired up about this now, but if people took 30 seconds to read further instead of flipping out over a headline they'd see the truth.
The Israeli Hanta case is not the same strain as the one on the cruise. They contracted this in Eastern Europe after a visit there. This isn't spread person to person.
If you read a headline and it's at all interesting to you, take the time to find the actual back story and see if it's something you should be concerned about. Having people turn into Chicken Little, shouting the "The sky is falling!" every time someone posts a headline is getting ridiculous. Politics, the weather or pandemics, just take a few minutes and read past a quick X headline.
How come you aren’t able to unselect a floor button on an elevator if you accidentally press the wrong one

The young man on the left is 19-year-old Shalom Lapid. On the right is Mordechai Lapid, a world famous Jewish refusenik who defeated the Soviet Union and risked his life to leave Russia and come to Israel so he can live as a Jew.
On December 6th 1993 a Palestinian car drove by them and sprayed the family car with bullets. The father Mordechai and his son Shalom died from their wounds, and three other children were injured.
The doctor that arrived on the scene was it close friend of the family; his name was doctor Baruch Goldstein.
After his friend died in his hands, many said Goldstein was deeply traumatized by this event.
Thres months later, on February 25th 1995 Goldstein would carry out the most heinous terrorist attack ever carried out by a Jew. He would shoot Muslim worshipers while they were praying in a mosque in Hebron killing 25 Muslim worshipers and injuring over 100.
Goldstein was very rightfully condemned by every single Jewish organization, rabbi, and the Israeli government.
At no point did ANYONE say that "Goldstein had close family friends who died in his hands after being murdered by Palestinians".
Why? Because there is never an excuse for terrorism.
Seeing so many media outlets whitewash the heinous attack on Temple Israel in Michigan is appalling and a direct continuation of what they have done to legitimize the horrors of October 7th carried out against the Jewish state of Israel.
The man who rammed his truck into a Michigan synagogue on Thursday had four family members who were killed in an airstrike in Lebanon the week before, a Lebanese official and a Michigan imam said. nyti.ms/4cM3BOq
