Cherry picking endpoints. Palestinians have been bullied around the mideast for a lot longer than that, mostly by not-Jews.

Their plan was to get the useful idiots to cow down Israel. This "opposed to Israel's actions, not their Jewishness" was integrated into the plan. Of course, that's for the West. Everywhere else it's classic antisemitism.
Your interpretation of the turn against the Iraq war as being a byproduct of the hard left is laughable. By the end of the Iraq war plenty of conservatives were realizing waltzing into a country full of people who don't trust us and don't want us there not to mention destabilizing regional politics (Sadam was a firm enemy of Iran after all) was never a good idea. Hence many of our conservatives turning to isolationism.
As for what the above is saying, pointing out that Israel is engaging in highly questionable practices that are resulting in massive numbers of civilian deaths isn't "sophistry". It's pointing out obvious truths that are supported even by Israel's questionable data.
They were quite happy to see Saddam ended and see the US. Several years later, when it became apparent, as with Afghanistan, that a neo-dictatorship had formed and was hunkering down waiting for the US to leave, that they had a fatalism.
The one I refer to in my original post went through an extended period of time where it was very obviously anti-government, and covered a lot of negative stories about the then current government.
So the bias isnt always "pro-owner" - and in this case anyway the funding doesn't come from the government, just a mandated license fee (which kinda lets the cat out of the bag as to whom Im talking about).
Regardless of which way you want to push it, the BBC at its height was both more independent than most other media outlets in the UK and was higher quality.
It has fallen a long way since then.
De todos modos, aquí está Wonderwall
Worse, unless the company is going out of business, which Ubisoft afaik is not, is it really a drag to spend a hundred a month keeping a server for ancient stuff running just for goodwill?
Some of these games needed many servers just for all the zones of one shard, a decade later that can be tucked into one computer.
Well, does it really need a server, like an MMO, or is that just some BS extra the software checks once in awhile becauae reasons?
Airbus has assembly plants in the US.
We just have to catch them before they merge with those damn Chenjesu.
He mentions why it looks old on the home page, point number 12.
Mitigation like this doesn't get in the way of business, and so bears little fruit, waggle-finger-wise.
That was it, it was holocaust denial. Thanks. Old brain is old.
My favourite news outlet has been publicly funded for its entire life, and that funding model hasnt changed.
20 years ago it had extremely high quality journalism, and an award winning website.
Today, its quality is through the floor and its website is shite. Most of the stories are reposts from other sites or “feel good” stories that should not be on a news site (and this site has its own “magazine” section, which is where those stories should be).
The problem in today’s journalism is not money, no matter what they try and tell you.
Back in 2015, AI chatbots were the hot thing.
Didn't one of them go full-on Nazi in like a day?
Ireland, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Pakistan, Namibia, New Zealand, Liberia, Lesotho, and the Philippines also use the "soccer" term.
Many other countries (Afganistan, Algeria, Armenia, Bahrain, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Cambodia, Croatia, Egypt, Estonia, Finland, Georgia, Greece, - you know what fuck it I'm to the G's and I'm tired of typing them) call the game by some local name which sometimes translates to "foot ball" but not always.
Bottom line - this website is based in the US. Most of its users are from the US. Its not going to be uncommon for US English - where the game is called soccer - to be the language used here.
