LMS - Last Man Standing.. Not FMS (First Man Standing) - This game is for night time only, not morning, afternoon, or evening.. NIGHT TIME ONLY!!

At night while most of the world is sleeping there are some members which are looking to socialize since they have no one else to speak to; they play a really exciting and fun game which basically every couple minutes you write a comment, the comments range from standing to sleeping, from young grasshoppers to old grasshoppers. it usually begins around 1:00 am EDT

RULES OF THE GAME:

1) Game starts at 1am Eastern, 12am Central, 11pm mountain, 10pm pacific... You get the point.
2) Anyone can call a roll call, just make a reply with "Roll Call". The roll call must be readable to the naked eye.
3) No more than one roll call every thirty minutes.
4) You have 30 minutes to respond to the roll call to stay active.
5) To respond to a roll call just post a reply with "Here" or "y y y"
6) If after one hour there are no more "Roll Calls" or "Heres", then the last person to post correctly either by calling a roll call or with a reply of "here" is declared winner of LMS.
7)You must have been awake for at least 12 hours before making or answering a RC.



OR IN SHORT:

When someone calls for a roll call. No more than one every 30 minutes and you have 30 minutes to respond "Here".

you seemed pretty clear that ALM = Racism.
The vast majority of the time it does. That is why I said don't use it. Do I believe @Yehuda57 means it that way, no. Others will take it that way and feed off it.

Yes that was part one and then I posted part two. She understood the mistake with part one and that is why there was a part two.

Part two didn’t answer the question about whether they’re concerned about the rise of antisemitism in light of the recent events.

The question was about concern about 1. the rise 2. in light of recent events. It wasn’t answered.

And that's very tragic, but what does that have to do with the rise in anti-semitism?
These are 2 separate issues.
She didn't answer the question (SOP for press secretaries) that was asked and botched the answer anyway. Then today she did answer the question and we get she ALMed the Jews.
Translation: She did to the Jews what white supremacist did to the blacks.

Irony here is painful, why is fighting jew hatred always diluted with "all hate" "[fill-in-the-blank] phobias" etc.?

I guess I'm behind the times.
Why is All Lives Matter racist?
If someone tells me Irish lives matter, I say "certainly, as do all lives."
You, an Irishman, are particularly aware and feel for Irish lives, I care about them as one of the people of the world.

It matters based on context. A better analogy would be someone saying “people are killing my family” and the response being “people get killed every day, how tragic”.

"Hamas murdered babies. It was awful."
"Certainly. As was the killing of Palestinian children."

When someone responds to a story of racism with ALM, they aren't saying they care about all lives, they are belittling the story. There is no need for you do mention "all lives" to the Irishman unless you are trying to belittle their claim.

You know this. You don't need me to tell you this. It is instinctively and intuitively understood. All Lives Matter was born as a response to Black Lives Matter. BLM was saying that black people are experiencing racism, and in response to that people said "ALM" to belittle BLM claims, and make as if it is racist for black people to point out racism when racism exists against others as well. It's absurd.

I'm at a loss. This is exactly what happened. She was asked about antsemitism and responded with Islamaphobia.

This was exactly the same as when white people answer "ALM" when someone brings up anti-black racism.

Now, this could have been explained away as a blunder, like this:
She didn't answer the question (SOP for press secretaries) that was asked and botched the answer anyway.
Ok, so then she is gonna fix it, right?

Then today she did answer the question

And what did she say? She started saying antisemitism is bad, just like she did the first time... and then once again spoke about Islamaphobia. She completely missed the issue, because of the history that I explained above.

Translation: She did to the Jews what white supremacist did to the blacks.

You were the only one who mentioned white supremacists. There is a long, long way to go from being a "soft" racist and saying "ALM" to being a white supremacist. But yes, what she did is *exactly* the same as what ALM means to BLM.

Did he just ALM the Jews?ETA: I guess I got my answer already. See how dangerous this is?

To quote someone else in the news, this tweet didn't happen in a vacuum. On its own, this tweet is perfectly fine, but in the context of the kerfuffle over his spokesperson's press conferences, it does appear that this might be an attempt to double down on ALMing Jews.

I just went back and listened to what she said. She condemned antisemitism and what happened to Israel on Oct 7 over and over for the first minute. Then for about 10 seconds she talked about hate against all groups at the end.

I will leave it at that.  :)

lol, didn't realize "leave it at that" means move to another thread :)

Either way here's my version

Did we get OBL - Yes
smurf jumping up and down.

Did we kill him - Yes
smurf still jumping up and down.

Is he dead - Yes
smurf jumping up and down some more.


smurf celebrates OBL's death and is proud of seal team 6 and their service to this country but is happy that they did the hard work he couldn't
