Got a reminder of why we’re all poor a few minutes ago. Nearly $7 for a McDouble and a 6 piece nugget. Weren’t these value menu items a couple years ago? 💀

You got scammed. The McDouble meal deal is around $6 with a McDouble, 4 piece nuggets, sm fry and sm drink. Still ridiculous compared to what it used to be, but the mcdouble and mcchicken meal deals are among the best value you can get currently amongst all the chains.

Donald Trump says Christians are being persecuted in Nigeria - is he right?

Your wrong. Make excuses for them all you want to. Guess in Ethiopa when they mowed down a village of 50-60 last week, that was over a land dispute there as well. But i guess when you lie with a dog politically hard to talk about the flea bites that are showing up.
 
Keep in mind this is also the war thread, so once it gets too far off the rails, back to all Iran/Ukraine/war consequences the thread stays. Certain comments that come close to the shut-down political thread have already shown so it's a good cut-off point for many topics.

Cost of living is tariff/war associated can stay, but irrelevant subjects or conspiracy theories should remain out.

A week for election coverage is/was sufficient.

AI items should go to the stock market thread as it balances best there.

So no more random twitter posts about how Israel is fighting for world world 3 and worse yet, killing kittens or not so hidden political comments from obviously biased sources?

Dern, that kills like 75% of posts in this thread.

Nowhere close to being war related and I’d like for this thread to not be shut down (yet again)

Thank you for your reply.

Regarding Oct 7th, it goes without saying how utterly horrible that was and perhaps that has been forgotten by many due to the long Gazan war that followed and short memories. What Hamas did on Oct 7th can never be forgiven or forgotten. Also, I think most agree that Hamas is horrible as they want Israel to cease to exist! Furthermore, how can the severe living condition of Gazans under their rule be justified? The ideas/beliefs of Hamas obviously can’t ever be eliminated but its control in Gaza needs to be kept in check as much as possible and preferably ended.

But two wrongs don’t make a right, correct? How could anyone justify the killing of ~70K innocent Palestinian women and children as well as many others who were wounded? How could one justify the destruction of most Gazan hospitals, schools, housing, and critical infrastructure? To be sure, many Jewish Israelis have not at all supported this. There have been many huge protests against the Bibi coalition for this reason. He may not be PM for much longer pending how the new Knesset majority coalition is determined.

There is no moral equivalence between Hamas and Israel.

I agree. But the horrible Bibi extremist coalition went way too far in the Gazan war as most of the world thinks, and I’m so glad he looks to be out as PM. They didn’t need to kill 70K women and children. Thats seriously hurt Israel’s image and will take a lot of time to slowly heal assuming they go a different route and get rid of the extremist coaltion. That’s insane what they did!

Indeed, the illegal settlement program needs to be stopped. The good news is that the new PM said he’ll do just that. We’ll see. Bibi kept saying he was against it but did very little!
