Normally I'd say Sling didn't have a prayer under this administration, but Disney has pissed everybody off - including the Grand Cheeto - so I'm just gonna go stock up on some popcorn...

From the Wikipedia page:

In September 2017, Toys "R" Us filed for bankruptcy protection in the U.S. and Canada. In June 2018, Toys "R" Us closed its remaining 200 stores after entering bankruptcy, however certain international divisions outside of the United States continued.

In January 2019, the global (excluding Canada) Toys "R" Us intellectual property was transferred to Tru Kids, Inc. In August 2021, Tru Kids announced that Toys "R" Us would be opening over 400 stores within Macy's starting in 2022. A few new standalone stores would open, starting late in 2021. The flagship store is located in New Jersey at the American Dream shopping and entertainment complex. A second flagship store was opened inside the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota, in November 2023.

But even those countries who aren't likely profiting from it have been rather muted in their reactions. It's rather disappointing. Only their nearby middle eastern neighbors have really had anything significant in terms of response up until recently.

Agreed. How anyone can still stand the stench of Netanyahu - let alone continue to back him - is beyond me. It blows my mind that it's taken this long for any even vaguely serious action against them to happen.

I've no idea how strong North Korean nukes are, but I'd be surprised if they weren't significantly more powerful than those used on Japan.

Besides, as repressed as the truly Orthodox Jews come off to me... there's probably plenty of what you're after already. Nuking them might make glow-in-the-dark femboys, tho, so there's that...

Yeah, I know. My first comment was a joke about two wrongs not making a right, just a right-wing - but then things went off the rail when someone asked what the second wrong was & I made the mistake of replying.

🤷

This is the first legit response I've received thus far, so I want to thank you for that.

You make a good point - one I can kind of get behind. My initial comment, however, was in response to the idea of using nuclear weapons on them - that's far too indiscriminate a weapon to be using, and one that will have lasting effects that spread beyond Israel. Nuclear fallout won't stop at Palestinian borders, for example.

You can't just take an obvious joke seriously & expect to be taken seriously.

Nice straw man. I simply said the indiscriminate killing represented by using nukes was unacceptable. Or are you such a fool that you think the nuclear fallout would stop at the Palestinian border?

Get real.

no Palestinian life matters, and a Palestinian cannot be innocent.

If you're going to "debate" by putting words in my mouth, we're done here. I never said, nor implied anything of the sort.

I am done discussing this issue with you–either you're in bad faith and I don't give a shit what you have to say,

Funny, I was about to say the same with you putting words in my mouth.

or I've given you something to think about for a couple days and you should process that before responding.

You're obviously not even thinking about what I've said, and you've therefore done no such thing. It's obvious you're too full of yourself to debate in good faith, so goodbye & good riddance.

Point to where I excuse him? I'll wait...
