  • they think there’s a health benefit and that it filters out more than just chlorine.

    Depending on where you are they’re not wrong. It’s a carbon filter, and carbon filters remove plenty more than just the chlorine taste, but what they’ll remove from your water depends what’s in your water. Like I wouldn’t ever bother with a filter when I’m in Edinburgh, but in America I’d probably want all my water filtered.





  • archaeological evidence confirming that Israelite culture was already indigenous to the region and there was neither a period of slavery in Egypt, nor an Exodus from Egypt, nor a conquest of Canaan as they were already there.

    I’d say this is a little inaccurate - the Israelite culture is an offshoot of the Canaanite culture from some 400 years after Israel was founded, based on the Canaanite scripture but with YHWH in place of El, and while there wasn’t a period of slavery or exodus in Egypt, there does seem to have been one in Babylon after the Babylonian conquest.
    The real issue of the both histories is that only about 20% of the population of the Kingdoms of Israel and Judea were enslaved, the other 80% stayed and after 2 millennia of cultural exchange ended up as Palestinians.


  • Yet another victim of brigading. No, we’re not the same person, part of Hexbear’s site culture is that we don’t have downvotes so people who disagree with something have to articulate that disagreement instead of just downvoting because they don’t like it.

    But OK, I’ll accept your unevidenced claim that Mexico is a “narcostate”, and even your wild notion that race and racism is unrelated to cultures, because I’m not asking about either of those things: I asked you to explain your idea that Mexico is a narcostate because of the culture.

    Its not about identifying as it, it’s about being called it - people going through psychotic episodes (which are entirely separate to psychopathy) or delusions often get called it. Psychopathy isn’t even an actual medical classification, so there isn’t really a reason to use it as a term at all.
