Beat me before I could make a boomerang joke

I told you about the boomerang, bro. I warned you, dawg by Frantz Fanon

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 weeks ago

But I threw the boomerang as hard as I could, how could it come back??

*Hitting myself in the dick with a hammer*

"How could the Middle East do this to me?!"

I skimmed through it and it is so much worse than I thought it would be. It is basically "you know ICE is a group of masked extremists that love killing, which is why they are just like Hammas. Oh yeah, sometimes the IDF gets trigger happy and kills a lot of journalists and civilians 'by accident', but Hammas is the correct comparison."

Funny since ICE is trained by the IOF.

Is this real?

please say sike

Edit: the headline is fake, but it's a real article.

[-] kleeon@hexbear.net 39 points 2 weeks ago

It still has this headline on their main page, but it changes to something different when you click it

[-] LeninWeave@hexbear.net 33 points 2 weeks ago

oh my god lmao agony-turbo

[-] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 3 points 2 weeks ago

Someone mentioned the guy changed the headline, but the article is apparently the same.

If only libs started going "What are we, a bunch of Israelis!?" they'd be much closer to the mark than they had ever been.

Always count of Thomas Friedman to have the dumbest idea possible

[-] Hestia@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

It's because much like the Middle East, America is now destabilizing Minneapolis.

[-] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

Then why should anyone listen to you now?

[-] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 13 points 2 weeks ago

Welcome to the middle west

[-] LupineTroubles@hexbear.net 12 points 2 weeks ago

This article serves the purpose of trying to preemptively deflect the possibility of comparing ICE to Israel, but rather to project against groups US and Israel fights.
