Something can be both sad and funny.

Like it really sucks for the victims but it's also darkly hilarious that every single time these libertariany scammy I'm smarter than everyone types do a thing they get an abject lesson in why communities have like safety rules and "red tape".

You know how people put spices on meat because they want it to taste more like plants?

sometimes people want to put spices on vegetable protein in order to make it taste more like meat, or fill a similar role in a dish.

People who avoid meat because killing pointlessly is wrong don't hate the taste. It's as weird as being like "people on a diet shouldn't make healthy desserts, they should appreciate low calorie veggie bowls for what they are"

lmao his biggest critics have never read anything he wrote.

nice rhetoric, I'll remember that

I prefer to call it the stormwater drain of the information superhighway

That can't really be done to people who don't use chrome. People who use chrome are morons though and might not realise they can just switch software.

Here is another article on the study for north American stats. WSJ might be a capitalist shit rag but they rarely publish nonsense data

That's where the approx 30% for NA comes from.

Idk how accurate those addon numbers are, they're probably not capturing stats for global numbers but user accounts are.

Google is not going to all this effort for a rounding error

similar stats to elsewhere.

you should probably not pull numbers out of your arse

the settlement started before British support which came later. It's super complicated.

edit: reasonable overview on Wikipedia of events leading up to Israel actually https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zionism

Bastardised simple summary is

• Europeans treat Jewish people like shit for thousands of years
• creates support for Jewish sovern state
• languishes a while but antisemitism gets worse
• in typical European fashion it is decided to just start settling where other people already live and force the existence of a country
• ww1, Britain and France decide they know how to do a middle east. Results show typical commitment to stability and fairness.
• settlement is supported by various and sundry European powers inc German Reich in lead up to and during ww2 because everyone hates Jewish people and wants to foist them off to some other, preferable brown skinned, person's country.
• after ww2 everyone eventually gets mad at the results of this sensitive and thoughtful plan, including European supporters, neighbouring countries, Palestinans, and many Jewish people. Fear and hatred fuel dominance of increasingly aggressive right wing political parties.
• everyone except the USA that is. Their government has a blast supply weapons after Britain and France wash their hands and claim guiltlessness.
• land grabs and oppression intensifies
