    Well… “They’re all” is kinda rhetorical shorthand, but the vast, vast majority of Israeli citizens are colonizers definitionally, just like how “all” north Americans are colonizers (obviously except indigenous people). The difference is that the USA/Canadian settler colonial projects have already “”“succeeded”“”.




  • A. Care to provide any evidence for your “gender is a mental disorder” point? Even a little?

    B. No one actually cuts a penis off, just FYI

    C. Its not uncommom for Cis teenage girls get breast reduction surgery, or even implants. Do you have issue with this? Or do you only have an issue when it’s trans men getting a mastectomy?

    D. Why you gotta be weird dude? I guarantee you’ve interacted with at least a handful of trans people in your life and were genuinely clueless about it. (I’m pre-empting the “we can always tell”)

    Edit: didnt notice he’s banned. Leaving it anyway.




  • Unless I’ve seriously lost what “an enterprise thing” is nowadays, I wouldnt call SPF and DKIM (and DMARC for that matter) “mostly an enterprise thing” considering:

    • They are security measures implemented by default with all freemail providers

    • Almost all mail systems will block or flag any mail which isnt at least SPF authenticated

    • Gmail and yahoo now aggressively require DKIM and DMARC to be configured in order for mail to be delivered if delivered in bulk (this is in addition to their past SPF requirements)

    • We (my company) consider it a mandatory now in 2024 to guarantee mail delivery, even for our smallest clients.




  • You know what, you’re right. Looks like I’ve gone too long assuming they were interchangeably usable by changing the surrounding words.

    I’ll redact my previous statement, though to be clear, I still strongly disagree that one could say that the attackers schizophrenia was definitely a factor in this without having a previously existing mental evaluation and the expertise to understand it. You could say that it’s more likely to have been influenced by his schizophrenia, but as I previously noted, a relatively small minority of schizophrenic people are violent (10-15%).


  • You don’t need to be a psychologist to determine whether his mental illness was a factor.

    I’m not saying his mental illness was the reason.

    Please continue saying more contradictory statements.

    If you think it could be a factor, then you think it might be a reason that he did this. It could be a factor, but again, neither of us are equipped to evaluate the mental status of someone based on news articles.

    Edit: Factor =/= Reason. My argument in this message is flatly incorrect due to this, though I’ll leave it up.



  • A person who is mentally ill and has done violent things, doesn’t mean they did those violent things because of their illness.

    In fact, your “common sense” isn’t even supported by science.

    • Only 10-15% of schizophrenic people exhibit violent tendencies

    • Schizophrenic people living in communities are up to 14x more likely to be the victim of violence rather than the perpetrator

    • Finally, this is anecdotal, but for whatever it’s worth, I have multiple (3) friends who are schizophrenic and they are genuinely the kindest people I know, whether or not they are on their medication.

    Stop vilifying the mentally ill.
