never seen such a bunch of 9-dash fantasies. the logic they use to posit these idiotic claims is breathtaking.

Well that's where t-rex lived

Does this also apply to Native Americans or...?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 18 hours ago

Native Americans have a different claim. They are not claiming their ancestors give them the right to use the land. They have agreements with the US government. The US then promptly turned around and ignored their promises. The native Americans have the receipts.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 17 hours ago

Agreements about historical land ownership only apply to white people!

Blood and soil nationalism is ok when it's promoted by non-white people.

Hungarian ultra-nationalists: "Since your kind was under my ancestor's rule, you have to rejoin my country and learn my language, or else you're a [incoherent antisemitic screaming]!"

Even better is that the guy is 42 with no kids. I get that we all technically have ancestry that goes back to the first life on the planet, but this guy suddenly happens to have verified family lineage that goes back farther than any other human on the entire planet... And he's the last one.
I pray that he consciously chose not to have kids... I know how soul destroying it can be to want to have kids but not be able to. But this guy... He suddenly, because someone needed a warm body to fill out their numbers to a nice round number, is directly confronted by a family lineage 9000 years old. And he's the last. What an absolute mind fuck.

H-how did they get spouses? Nevermind, I probably don't want to know.

[–] chaogomu 3 points 13 hours ago

Spouses can move to the village, it's just that the children never leave.

At least one parent was born in the village.

Inbreeding mastery level: British

[–] ZILtoid1991 6 points 23 hours ago

"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his inbreeding levels?"

"IT'S OVER 9000 YEARS!"

You forgot the part where the komodo dragon's "promised land" was full of Phoenician Canaanites they had to genocide first.

[–] saltesc 41 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The same Canaanites from Noah's son because after everyone was killed by a flood, God deemed Canaan's blood the good people worth saving?

He sure seemed to fuck it up and have to wipe out humans quite a few times. But that's what you get for putting a tree in Eden for no other reason but to introduce sin to the innocent and trick humans into thinking Lucifer was the evil one.

And now he loves America. Just don't tell the Italians.

Starting to see a pattern of bad outcomes for whoever makes a deal with this guy at the time...

Birds: Um, akshully, we're more closely related than you are!

[–] InputZero 2 points 16 hours ago

They probably looked a lot more like birds than reptiles too because taxonomically speaking birds are actually dinosaurs.

Chickens 100% are just mini T-rexes.

[–] AngryCommieKender 4 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Cassowaries make a lot more sense when seeing T-Rex like that.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

I love it when the folks attempting to talk down to everyone else don't know how history worked or how all those lines get drawn on the map.

🍿

[–] mojofrododojo 3 points 8 hours ago

so you blame the brits, then, for selling the land twice?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago)

your comment is ambiguous: are you insulting my opinion or the other opinion? I need to know so I can act accordingly

[–] [email protected] 72 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Imagine Mongolia just started invading China and be like "MY ANCESTORS USED TO LIVE HERE"

[–] Agent641 43 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Imagine the Australians descending on London like "Oh yea nah me bluddy rellys is fully from here aye!"

The irony would be even greater if they were kicking out birds who they accused of displacing the ancient Dinosaurs.

[–] Korne127 28 points 1 day ago (4 children)

The problem is that this argument can really be made both ways. If someone said Israel shouldn't exist because Palestinians used to live there before that, that's just essentially the same argument.

[–] kerrypacker 3 points 20 hours ago

Yep, maybe they could have a big fight, winner takes all.

[–] [email protected] 59 points 1 day ago

Israel shouldn't exist because it's a colonial apartheid state perpetrating a genocide. That doesn't mean every non-palestinian has to leave either.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Neither argument hold any merit and is an example of the tyranny of history. Who cares what a bunch of dead assholes thought was theirs? The people who live there (not the politicians who pretend to represent their interests) are the only people that have any legitimate claim to authority on what should be done about the region.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

It is especially meritless to equate people who claim the land based on other people sharing their religion having lived there a thousand years ago, with people whose grandparents got kicked out of their houses and who've had to live in an open air prison ever since while being subjected to regular attempts at ethnic cleansing.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 day ago (9 children)

But saying that Israel shouldn't exist doesn't mean that the Israelis have to leave
