guy who thinks Cuba had low quality healthcare before the recent oil embargo
You think the blockade is why Cuba has no power or quality healthcare? Yes, the US is why prostitutes and Taxi drivers get paid more than doctors and engineers in Cuba. You think it is the " humanitarian thing to say" to fund a regime that stomps on its citizens rights?

I am observing an extreme case of "nobody makes the observation but everyone makes observations about the observation nobody makes (anymore)" with the discourse around supposed observations that Avatar (post fire and ash) doesn't have any cultural impact

Oh I see your confusion, you thought the prophesy meant nobody could kill you, but it says here “nobody” is the name of a man who will kill you. And that’s much less strange than being immortal.

It defo is a bit concerning that it is somewhat acceptable to accuse the IDF of genocide on the BBC but completely unacceptible to call for the demise of that institution.
Makes me worry about the BBC's opinion on genocide
