hopesdead@startrek.websiteto World News@lemmy.world•Poll: Half of UK say Israel committing genocide in Gaza, majority support Netanyahu arrestEnglish3·3 days agoIf you are British and live in the UK and condone anything Israel has done, you are part of the problem historically. I’m not saying you shouldn’t have allowed for Palestine to exist, but you contributed to this mess with the Balfour Declaration.
EDIT: I am blaming the UK government and those who support the actions which in turn support Israel in this conflict.

Supposedly they burn so hot that they are difficult to extinguish.
Whelp… I’m going to special hell. At least it is ironic in a good way.

Why is Great Britain not getting so much fucking hate for how they historical contributed to this conflict? If people are wanting to legalize hate towards the humanitarian treatment of a whole territory and people, why is the nation that contributed to their existence not being criticized?
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Friends say Minnesota shooting suspect was deeply religious and conservative39·7 days agoThis is the exact bullshit we could brand someone that follows Islamist ideology with.
The major difference: Islamist groups purposely (as I recall learning in a college level North American religions course taught me) twist actual Islamic ideology while the Christian Right just doesn’t understand the religious text they claim to follow.
EDIT: Going to Trump rallies could be equated as the Christian Right version of terrorist training camps.
EDIT 2: My point about describing someone who assassinated people as “religious”, will place a false connotation on a group. It either paints the killer as misguided or followers of that religious faith as bad people. This is what happened with 9/11.

Lol, I saw someone at STLV last year who modified theirs to do just that.

Seán Ferrick of TrekCulture has pointed out that Game of Thrones’ final season was six episodes, half which were longer length. So there is a possibility that these episodes will be longer.
EDIT: I misspelled Seán’s name earlier.
I believe there is a joke in The Office about Todd Packer being able to name all the extant species, because there are only two.
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto [Moved to Piefed] Television@lemm.ee•This Is the Real Reason Why Documentaries Are So Popular NowEnglish3·14 days agoEspecially with true crime, the way things are presented could alter how the content is perceived. For example, Making a Murder took time to walk the audience through the entire trial (I’m not going to debate the perception the film makers left out important facts that influence the narrative).
On the flip side a more recent series like This Is the Zodiac Speaking, only focused on one suspect, never questioned the testimony of the children as being faulty memories or fact checked well known details about the crimes mentioned. My point is, this documentary was on a subject that was better well known and didn’t aim to present the children as telling their own side of events; it straight up makes the assumption what they said must be true because they personally knew ALA. On top of this, they featured Robert Graysmith, the author of the book Zodiac which is well known for being factually inaccurate, and doesn’t challenge his research. And at the end, the film makers failed to get the DNA test results for a test they commissioned. What deadline existed that they couldn’t tell the viewer what the result was?
Sorry, that documentary in particular irritates me for how factually inaccurate and onesided it was. My overall point is that true crime in particular seems to just be looking for whatever will get views. Not a lot of the documentaries that have come out in this period have produced well made series or ethically honest content. Is it entertainment or is it bringing awareness to what occurred or the people affected?
hopesdead@startrek.websiteto [Moved to Piefed] Television@lemm.ee•This Is the Real Reason Why Documentaries Are So Popular NowEnglish8·14 days agoThe problem I have is the quality of the film making. Regardless of the content, if it isn’t well made, probably wouldn’t see through the whole thing.

hopesdead@startrek.websiteto politics @lemmy.world•Rep. Mary Miller loses it over 'a Muslim' speaking in Congress8·15 days agoWow, this is exactly what someone who 1. doesn’t practice real Evangelical Christianity would say 2. would believe not having studied the most basic of United States history.
The separation of Church and State is exactly that. The Colonist came to North American because they didn’t like how the Church of England was being operated. In practice they might not have wanted other religious groups to have such freedom but if you try to take the Bill of Rights and Constitution at face value, then you as a person in the United States government have no reason to judge them for being a non-Christian. Much like how I much challenge you to prove you belong to a well regulated militia when you own a gun.

EDIT: in STVI, I think the context is being angry for the death of David.
Guess who was also impeached? Clinton!
