Check this video. Here is a firsthand account of a Lebanese woman of the vile Jew hating culture that is endemic in the middle east. Like i said when this debate started about Israel it is the culture dummy. There is nothing intrinsic about people in the middle east that hatred of Jews/Israel is imperative. Otherwise i would be a de facto…

I would consider the series in the same league as ‘Breaking Bad’ or ‘Homeland’. I was surprised to read it is No 1 on Netflix in Lebanon.

What most surprised me was that the series had viewers from Gaza!. You know the place where the “Genocide” is supposed to be occurring?!?

You know, I seriously doubt that even if…[Read more]

Enco,

I don’t think Netflix’ tends to promote its content so that you would encounter it organically.

Well, normally. I’ll see streaming movies and series like the Yellowstone franchises and the Oppenheimer or Wicked movies cross-promoted and co-branded on boxes for different TVs.

Enco,

Fauda is a good series. Another one in that genre is Lioness. I am really enjoying that one. I think it is just Paramount though with a few episodes on Prime.

That’s a pity. Paramount has a great line-up, including every Star Trek series and every Star Trek movie, but I had too many technical problems with the service to justify…[Read more]

Jake and Reg:

‘m kind of wondering: Could the fact that I had not heard of this series mean that Netflix is scared to promote it in the present zeitgeist?

Or could it mean that Wokeists/Palestinianists/Islamists/Toadies in the theater/critical journalist realm don’t want to review it?

Jake and Reg:

I’m going to say something that’s gonna floor you!: I never heard of the series Fauda until now, much less that it had 5 seasons!

Netflix has had problem of affordability since even before Trump. It doubled in price when I had to drop it a few years ago (that’s a 100% rise in price translated to MAGA mathematicians.). The quality…[Read more]

My discussion with my friend hasn’t turned to weeks yet and he has said that Vaccines are among the greatest boons to mankind, so he may not be too deep in the rabbit hole, but he has indicated in the past a like of listening to Art Bell and Alex Jones. (I have too, but with a very comedic funny bone on my eardrum.)

We’ll see how things…[Read more]

…..and a 40-year-old female resident of Jefferson County died on Saturday, September 12, 2026, from complications associated with measles.

I’m doing my small part to see that there are no more victims of fully preventable killers.

I heard there was a flu season coming too, so I decided not to participate this past Labor Day weekend, as a…[Read more]

World of Woo: Pete Hegseth.

Pete Keg’s-Breath and Bobby Brainworm are the kind of idiots who say: “Welp! Ye go to war with the military you have!”

Uh, no! Not if you want to win that war!

During the last war the U.S. won–World War II, it’s been that long–we didn’t fight with the Military we had! We took the Military we had and made…[Read more]

Fellow Unbelievers:

This thread also needs re-reading 25 years after 9/11/2001 and one year after Charlie Kirk’s murder.

Although my assessments of Charlie Kirk’s views have gone down, especially after platforming Christian Nationalist lunatic Victor Marx, I still say he and no one else deserves murder for mere words.

And as always, in this…[Read more]

Ferguson says a borderline contradictory and stupid statement at end of vid in which he asserts something like ‘if we maintain our faith in god and uphold the values of a free society’.

You are indeed right here and it’s more than borderline contradictory. Like I said earlier:

Leaving aside insidental God-talk at the end, he has cha…

“Rebels with too many causes.”. That is genius! May I borrow that when suitable?

Perhaps what social media and AI need is an algorithm that detects and mines for opposing viewpoints and fallacies as well as provides fact-checking. It couldn’t save everyone from the rabbit hole, but could guide users to watch their step.

Jake and Fellow Unbelievers:

Here’s a video where historian Niall Ferguson explains how AI has been weaponized by the algorithms of social media and AI geared toward rage-baiting, by the contrarian drift of youth towards older generations, and the ability to spread a message worldwide in seconds. The end result is what we see every day. Leaving…[Read more]

I had to look up Ghibli. Dont think i have seen an anime film.

I’ve only seen still-lifes of Ghibli. They are just sickeningly sweet, not at all like humans even in good times, especially during workplace injuries.

Ghibli will not replace us. Here is a pretty safe bet. if AI begins to send us to a dystopian hell the Jews will be…

Reg,

Curious to know how you see AI’s impact on us in near and long term.

Well, I seen a T-shirt promoting workplace safety whose imprint was created by AI. It showed a big-eyed Ghibli person smiling in obliviousness as they slipped on a wet floor, destined for a head concussion with said floor.

In an AI-produced promo on the break r…[Read more]
