So many baby photos I've taken today, and not a single one I can share without doxxing. :yikes: :battery_low:

I remain steadfast in my belief that this cartoon was written by a user.

I found one of these BUT it was a collection of quotes from the Talmud intended to make Jews look like bad guys. Well, I went through each one and found that only ONE out of the twelve they mentioned were misquotes, misinterpretations from not understanding context, or total fabrications!

For those who wish to read my line-by-line rebuttals (I can't find the original "info" meme):

>Soferim 15
Can’t find an English translation.

>Yebamoth 98a
Nope. Hard to figure out what they ARE saying (something about an example gentile child is as related to… someone… as an animal IE they aren’t related at all) but it isn’t saying goyim children ARE animals.

>Bava Metzia 114b
Not even close. Something about gentile graves not rendering one impure, whatever that means. Nothing about beasts and the word “goy” is absent.

>Gad Shas 2:2
Doesn’t exist as far as I can tell; probably misspelled.

>Avodah Zarah 36b*
No, it says that a Hebrew having sex with a gentile woman “bears liability for transgressing four prohibitions…Menstruating woman [nidda], maidservant [shifá], gentile [goya], and married woman [eshet ish]…considered to have violated the prohibitions involved in having intercourse with all four of these women”. In other words: don’t screw non-Jews. Also, misinterpreting menstruation with filth? How misogynistic of whoever put together this pol misinfographic!

>Sanhedrin 54b
Anyone less than 9 is NOT LIABLE for acts of sodomy (ie homosexuality and bestiality), so the kid won’t be stoned to death either for (eg) raping an animal or being raped by an adult — the Talmud deliberately states that a the adult rapist IS liable (in Sanhedrin 55a), so in other words he shall be put to death by stoning. But a 9-yo boy or girl who fucks a dog, or is fucked by a dog (by choice), I imagine, would be severely punished in any case.

>Sanhedrin 58b
‘Rabbi Ḥanina says: A gentile who struck a Jew is liable to receive the death penalty, as it is stated when Moses saw an Egyptian striking a Hebrew: “And he turned this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he struck the Egyptian and hid him in the sand” (Exodus 2:12).’ Finally! One that checks out. Though according to context it could merely refer to a gentile slave who strikes his master.

>Sanhedrin 57a
Jews aren’t allowed to murder gentiles (but isn’t allowed to rescue them from danger) but they MAY rob— oh wait! See the last one!

>Tospoth Jebamoth
Can’t find this either; another probably misspelling.

>Bava Metzia 24a
Seems to be the case, but there are a LOT of paragraphs to dig through…

>Abodah Zarah 22a-22b
More like “we’re not so sure of those guys over there who aren’t our people, so we should keep neither or animals nor our women with them…” More of a trust issue.

>Baba Kamma 113a
The only time a Jew may lie to “circumvent ‘Goy’ gentile” (no one here says goy, for the third time) is if the Jew is trying to rescue another Jew from gentile slavery, deceiving the slaver via financial/etc means since he’s not allowed to outright murder the gentile as said in Sanhedrin 57a. By the way, this one says gentiles may NOT be robbed: “‘Apparently, it is permitted to deceive a gentile.’ The Gemara challenges this assertion: But is robbery from a gentile permitted? Isn’t it taught in a baraita: Rabbi Shimon said that Rabbi Akiva taught this matter when he came from Zephirin: From where is it derived that it is prohibited to rob a gentile?”

Since I can’t find three of the twelve:
1/9 failing grade. (And the 1 is questionable due to context.)

Isn't it cute how so many of these "nazis were the good guys!" "info" memes are bandied about, with not a single source to back it up?

re: DissidentKitty "leaving fedi" - Very long. 

@portpupper yeah that's.... that's an interesting little phenomenon.

People fighting for the human rights of a group of people but denying their human individuality by assuming they all think and behave identically.

DissidentKitty "leaving fedi" - Very long. 

DissidentKitty,

Your behavior is nothing less than a cancer on the fediverse. Over 8 months ago, I predicted a situation like this, and I'm happy to see that (mostly) cooler heads have prevailed, and that your behavior has been called out as wholly unacceptable.

Not only have you tarnished the image of the fediverse as a whole, but you've also tarnished the image of social justice, that cause you claim to fight for with all of your being. Using someone's race or gender as an excuse for your indefensible behavior towards them is racist, sexist, and only gives more ammunition to the far-right, because it shows that you aren't inclusive, you just want to start political drama and be patted on the back for it.

This debacle is the logical result of a few large instances incentivizing and glorifying callout culture. Ironically, it took calling you out to SBC's hosting provider for your admin to actually put a damper on it.

Don't let the socket hit your ass on the way out, consider doing a flip, and be assured that the fediverse will happily continue on without you.

So apparently this is DK's response to endangering their entire instance...

Where in the may one search and collect many wallpapers and similar images and photos? Thank you!

If this keeps going I'll try the one marked "recommended" even if it looks to be an old one (4.19.107-1). If it STILL keeps bugging out on me by then I'll switch back to 5.5.7-1 and begin messing around with video drivers because I'm rolling with an accursed nVidia. :yikes:

It looks like scholar.social is starting to engage in doxxing too.

after the doxxing incident I don't think its a good idea to send them non public notices. I doubt they can be trusted not to read DMs at this point.

Is there a common or most popular tag for "currently listening to XYZ"? If so I wanna share what matches my current mood so well:
