Syria’s military isn’t exactly great, and it’s probably not even government controlled territory. The government only controls about 60% and the US actually occupies a small amount of the country.

I feel bad, but overgrazing can seriously destroy ecosystems. The Sahara desert was grassland as recent as 10000 years ago and scientists believe cattle farming literally ate too much until a it caused a runaway greenhouse effect.

I’ve been opposed to the Israeli government for a long time. They do pretty horrible shit and blame it on terrorists. How can you invade someone’s home and punish them for trying to survive and not see yourself as the bad guy?

I would expect all Palestinians are at this point. Israel executes reporters on air.

I mean, Holocaust museums exist. They should always remember the things Russia has done to them.

When I was 14, my stepbrother pointed me out to one of his friends, he said “Holy shit he looks like he’s thirty!” One of my football coaches hit made and demanded I shave it off. I didn’t. The only time I’ve shaved it off completely was for a week when my father bribed me with scuba diving lessons and certification.

Clearly. I think she’d look great with a Dumbledore beard.

I have minor paralysis on my face and have always hated smiling because of it. Have had a beard since I was fourteen hiding it, I’m glad she won’t have to go through that (the not smiling part, not the beard part).

Ok, so I get protecting American data on government devices, but banning TikTok to prevent potential Chinese censorship seems, err, specious at best?

Slavery has occurred basically from the start of civilization to the current day. There’s even hidden slavery in the US, much of it still in the south picking tomatoes. There are some very interesting studies and articles on the subject.
That said, I specifically only mentioned the pyramids because they were proof positive built by experienced craftsman and tradesman that lived in large communities, well paid, with benefits most people wouldn’t have. Even sick days.

They didn’t just get paid. They had amenities the general public didn’t have. They even got sick days. The only “evidence” that slaves built the pyramids is the same document that says the world flooded for a boat carrying two of every animal and the world is 6000 years old.

I don’t know if they were enslaved, though if were using my the same text that spawns creationism, I’d hardly hold my breath. That said, the pyramids were not built by slaves.

No, they didn’t. There were entire communities of respected craftsman and tradesman. Archaeologists have definitive proof that they were not slaves. Try googling it, there is a LOT of easily accessible documentation.

Depends on what you’re referencing Egypt about. The pyramid builders were actually well respected craftsman.
Edit: I’m sure I’m still going to get downvoted into oblivion, but it would be cool if people actually tried reading the many articles and research out there before you do.

I can’t speak with the experience of a non-white person, but it SEEMS like it wouldn’t be a big deal. They were right to change it, but only because it was just an awful name.
