Exactly! And I just saw another comment about that mom and the story that people knew at 9am - I hadn’t actually heard that before! That would be absolutely insane if they did, in fact, bring over other people in the morning. It’s going to be nuts if even one photo or snap/etc is of them just being casual and chilling in the morning.

Sorry that I called you dumb. Maybe I just meant that you’re stupid.

r/realTO is small but allows discussion

Come on over to r/realTO

The province says it’s ending Alberta’s 18-year moratorium on grizzly bear hunting, with plans to limit the activity to culling a limited number of problem animals.

But allowing the bears to be hunted goes against the views of some wildlife biologists — including the government’s own — who say research runs counter to it. It has also attracted the ire of conservationists who fear the practice could reverse progress made in the recovery of the grizzly population.

Lol another government clown show.

It comes as the bears’ threatened species status is under review by the province, a process that has been delayed by recent turbulence within government ministries, say sources.

That review and the new hunt have been driven at least partly by the apparent success of the recovery plan that’s seen the grizzly population grow from between 700 and 800 in 2010, to between 900 and 1,150 now, including those in the national parks.

So… the original moratorium on hunting to allow the population increase was successful, meaning hunting should be allowed again and just undo that progress? TF?

GoodChives

I’m not a mod here lmao. Maybe you’re being mass downvoted bc your hot take sucks?

GoodChives

What? Where did the other commenter suggest this?

GoodChives

Well articulated.

GoodChives

What? Death tolls alone have nothing to do with defining genocide. With war comes death, do you not understand that? If Hamas had the military capability to completely wipe out Israel they would. On the flip side, Israel does have the military capability and yet goes to significant lengths to reduce civilian casualties, even if that means Hamas militants get advanced warning of where Israel will strike.

GoodChives

You don’t seem to know proper grammar so I assume you’re not the sharpest, but care to provide sources for all these claims?

GoodChives

Interesting he said that the IDF purposely targets hospitals and other infrastructure, but conveniently left out why they’re forced to target those places, as well providing days/week advanced warnings to civilians. Guess that part of the narrative doesn’t jive with these clowns.

GoodChives

This would be funny if it wasn’t so scary how delusional you are.

GoodChives

You’re a university admin and don’t know that the property is private? Yikes.

GoodChives

No, they’re not. University campuses are private property.

GoodChives

Who?

GoodChives

with no “outsiders” allowed.

Um, what? Israel has about a 20% Arab population. You have no idea what you’re talking about.

GoodChives

And Biden? And the company has the option to sell and remain in the US, what then? And why was this discussion started years ago, well before this conflict came into western mainstream news? Let me guess, you partake in the ‘Jews control the media’ conspiracy. r/conspiracy is calling.

GoodChives

There’s so many of them in this thread.

GoodChives

You realize the discussion and investigation to ban TikTok began years ago, well before the Israel-Palestine conflict came into mainstream western media, right? And if this is all a big conspiracy, why would the government allow TikTok to be bought out from Chinese ownership and then continue to operate in the states? Not to mention this conversation was about the conflict and how social media plays a role in disseminating content in the west. Not about TikTok in general.

GoodChives

Rafah is being attacked because Hamas started a war.

GoodChives

She’s such a cunt.

GoodChives

Like the one in November?

GoodChives

You sound like an asshole.

GoodChives

Even the New York Times and the UN sent investigators who found nothing.

You’re either ignorant or a liar, or both. Either way, you’re a rape apologist. Sickening.

I see this argument constantly but with zero response to an alternative. What should the IDF do in, in your opinion?

They tried and continue to try to reduce civilian casualties, but Hamas uses Palestians as human shields and hides their weapons and command centres in populated areas.

Would you rather boots on the ground? Because that will very likely end up much worse for Palestinian civilians.

Would you rather Isreal commit to a THIRD ceasefire, only to have Hamas either break it, or take time to regroup and amass their forces again to attack Israeli citizens.

So please, put your money where your mouth is. Explain what is the ‘alternative’.
