Here’s the link that was removed where Biden is actively trying to defer the ICC case calling it outrageous:

And Biden had nothing to do with this you say? How about the time when the US (Biden’s admin) was actively trying to dissuade ICC from issuing these warrants.

Death of fast food is a treat we can all look forward to. Keep raising those prices geniuses!

Taking a page out of the IDF playbook. (Unsurprisingly).

Provided to him on a silver fucking platter… I mean, it’s astonishing how incompetent he is/was/or is becoming. Holy shit.

100%. There are fewer bigger security mistakes than giving up nukes. It’s a case study of why you shouldn’t just trust “diplomacy”.

This. This is what it boils down to. This is why Pakistan and India keep getting away with the shit they pull along with all other nuclear nations. The moment Iran claims nuclear capable, “restraint” will be shown. With the amount of back channel communication that’s been happening between the US and Iran over the Gaza and Israel situation, it’s very likely they already have shown their hand and ability to be nuclear, and therefore the calculus is now extremely complex compared to something like Iraq and Afghanistan.

This also explains why Iran demonstrated and telegraphed their attack the way they did and the US agreed to it, despite the “Iran is the devil” rhetoric being perpetuated worldwide.

Hate to say it, but might is right and has always been.

Edit: To add, if they admit they are nuclear capable publicly, they are inviting more sanctions and another escalation which is the last thing they need given the state of their economy. They will also be on the back foot because Israel gets the moral high ground for being right about their nuclear ambitions.

Ditto for “leftist” lunatics.

Learn how to emphasize and get your point across better if you’re going to get into arguments. Using caps makes you look like a 12 year old.

Ohh? So now you think this isn’t deliberate action to provoke but instead it’s a mistake by the supplier due to not knowing what is and what isn’t sensitive toward others? What moved the goal post?

I didn’t, that was sarcasm for calling my argument as a “conspiracy” when asking for accountability when it hurts Muslims. But please feel free to keep skirting past the issue and keep making pointless statements. Seeing how this isn’t going anywhere, have a good day.

Using caps mid sentence indicates aggression. I’m not sure how often you use the internet, but keep it mind next time you decide to use it when somebody else isn’t using it.

Lol @ conspiracy. Sorry to have knocked you off your high horse there buddy. Who would have thought people can be ignorant regardless of religiosity right?

You gonna go say the same shit to blacks, latinos, trans, jews, asians etc next when they say something is offensive to them?

Maybe your entire bigoted outlook on life is a problem. When a group of people have expressed concerns over something being offensive, stop doing it.

This is like sticking your hand in fire and not expecting to get burnt.

Let me post the entire article so that you can go find something that contradicts with what I’m saying, my friend.

Three stores belonging to a Malaysian minimart chain that sold socks carrying the word “Allah” have been targeted with molotov cocktails over the past week, in a rare case of such violence.

One of KK Super Mart’s stores in Kuching, the capital of Sarawak, in Malaysian Borneo, was hit by a molotov cocktail on Sunday, a day after a separate attack on a store in Pahang on the east coast of peninsular Malaysia. On 26 March, a store in Perak was also targeted with a petrol bomb, though it did not ignite, according to local media.

No one was injured in the incidents, which are being investigated by police.

The attacks came after pictures of socks bearing the word “Allah” at one of the chain’s stores were shared widely on social media, provoking outrage among Muslims who viewed use of the word in association with feet to be offensive.

Mostly Muslim ethnic Malays make up two-thirds of Malaysia’s population, while the country also has large ethnic Chinese and Indian minorities.

Chai Kee Kan, the CEO of KK Super Mart, the country’s second-largest chain of convenience stores, and his wife, a company director, were charged with hurting religious feelings last week, while three officials from supplier Xin Jian Chang have been charged with abetting them. All five pleaded not guilty. They could face up to one year in prison, or a fine, or both, if convicted.

Chai Kee Kan blamed the supplier, which the chain is suing, and said that only 14 pairs of “Allah” socks were found on the shelves at three KK Super Mart outlets.

Both companies have apologised. The supplies said the socks were part of a larger shipment of 18,800 pairs ordered from China.

The use of the word “Allah” has long been a highly contentious issue in Malaysia, where court cases have been heard over whether the word can be used by Indigenous Christians in their religious worship. Such controversy had, however, been largely confined to the courtroom, said James Chai, visiting fellow at the Iseas-Yusof Ishak Institute, Singapore.

The sale of the socks was a flashpoint for wider tensions, he said, pointing to the success of the Islamic-based party PAS in the 2022 elections. “Many people attribute this to years of segregation by race and religion, as well as the growing number of Islamic institutions including schools that have built a more conservative mindset within society,” he said.

Some politicians, including the youth chief for the Umno, a Malay political party which is in the governing coalition of the prime minister, Anwar Ibrahim, have been accused of fanning anger, by calling for a boycott of the stores.

After the petrol bomb incidents, Sultan Ibrahim, the king of Malaysia, has called for unity, saying community leaders must act with maturity. A senior police figure also warned against escalation, saying there should not be a repeat of the 2001 Kampung Medan riots, which occurred between the Indian and Malay communities, local media reported.

James Chai, of the Iseas-Yusof Ishak Institute, said there were no indications yet that the tensions could escalate to the level seen in 2001, or in 1969, when deadly racial riots occurred between the Malay and Chinese communities. He added the petrol attacks should serve as a caution that “the harmony and peace that you have in the racial communities should not be taken for granted. “

Patience and forgiveness goes both ways. Go around talking shit to people in the streets and see what happens.

If a group of people find something offensive, then don’t do it. Learn to respect their wishes. It’s just that simple.

As my boi Ice Cube once said: “Don’t start none, there won’t be none”

True. I’m fine with the likes of Lemmy/Reddit users not getting it, but in this case, we have a DOJ that thinks this is somehow for them to solve. Law making via litigation is just lazy and moronic imo.

SMS works. iMessage works. Both work in tandem on a device and there’s a distinction which is which, therefore you get full access to and from when communicating with a device. I’m shocked that there’s this lunacy around conflating the two or expecting two different standards to work because people want to.

I want to have flying cars and breathe underwater without any equipment next, guess lets file a lawsuit forcing sub makers and car makers to go make that happen.

Why? iMessage is a proprietary platform that Apple invested billions into. Expecting them to have API inter-op is idiotic. It’s not like you can’t text people outside of iMessage. There’s SMS, and people are free to use it. Expecting a “bridge” between two standards for the sake of having a bridge tells me people do not know how any of this works and are just parroting the same stupid arguments put forth by people that, again, do not understand how a technology is planned for, developed and maintained.

If there’s such an appetite, ask the fucking government to set a standard and ask every smartphone operating in the country to comply. It’s really that simple.
