I’m a nonverbal autistic.

I mean, go off with your conspiracy theory that’s not supported by your link, I guess.

My dad was born in the 30s, and was just as autistic as me. His mother (born 1910) died when I was little, but I remember her being eccentric, and my mother called her “difficult”. They both lived perfectly normal lives, they were just very different from the others around them. I’m autistic and so is my nephew; that’s four generations, spanning a century.

We have always been here.

Or people could have been autistic all along, and just not diagnosed?

Israeli Arabs are Israeli citizens, they aren’t usually considered Palestinian.

Kindles are great devices and they’re subsidised, so they’re cheap. It’s perfectly possible to use them on e.g. permanent airplane mode. You don’t even have to buy books from Amazon, if you use Calibre.

That said I’ll be going Kobo next time because I love buttons.

Goddamn, Harry Kim just can’t catch a break.

The proof will be in what your child tells you, when they feel able to do so.

So your position (besides implying that I’m a cheerleader for Netanyahu) is that a good working definition of antisemitism is bad because people misuse it? What’s your take on how to counter the very real antisemitism that exists in parts of the anti-Israel movement? Also, I’m sorry, but your quotation is obviously bullshit:

applying double standards by requiring of [Israel] a behavior not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation

China is a democratic nation now? Saudi Arabia is a democratic nation? Come on. It’s obvious what that means, and it should be obvious why holding Israel to a uniquely high standard among democratic nations, as the definition says, is antisemitic.

I’ve taken to mending the gnat holes on my tshirts with colourful cross stitch over patches and I feel my life is better for it

Yeah, I thought that was it. The definition is clear that criticism of the Israeli government that’s comparable to criticisms aimed at other governments isn’t antisemitism. You should be able to criticise Israel in the same terms you criticise (e.g.) Russia and China, or for that matter America and the UK. But if you exclusively criticise Israel in virulent terms, or say that Israel is some sort of uniquely evil entity comparable to the Nazis, or imply that all Jews worldwide are agents of the Israeli state, or say Israel as a nation state should be wiped off the map—that’s antisemitic.

This should all be pretty uncontroversial.

Zionists

It’s okay, we know you mean Jews.

Is there a reason this article bashes (adjusts glasses, checks) the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance in its opening para?

Always amuses me a bit when people say Kindles don’t support EPUB, since I’ve been stripping DRM from my books and storing them in Calibre (enabling transparent conversion between EPUB and Amazon’s formats) for thirteen years without a hitch. You should be doing this on any platform if you want to keep your books.

It’s beyond me why anyone who so much as knows what FOSS stands for wouldn’t do the same.

Nobody ever remembers Welsh on these charts.

Let me put it in words of one syllable for you, since you’re desperately reaching for any goalpost you can find to shift: I don’t know who you think you’re talking to, but it isn’t anyone who’s replied to you on this thread.

Heavens, it’s lucky we have people as smart as you to put the rest of us in our place. That guy has told you repeatedly, for instance, that he’s not American and views “Trump voter” as an insult. And yet you persist in accusing him of being an American Trump voter, while jerking it to the sound of your own voice - surely the act of someone a cut above the common herd, who’s not a self-important asswipe at all.

Honestly, the BBC never report on protests, and the people behind the protests always get mad about it. They just aren’t newsworthy unless something happens besides the fact of a protest.

Essentially, this story is free advertising for the protest.

I use it on my netbook, which is absolutely dirt slow. Shame :c

It’s not a stretch, it’s literally what that phrase means in context.
