One thing the Predator movies always did well was giving the creature its own strange code of honor. Moments like that made it feel less like a mindless monster and more like a hunter with rules.
There’s a difference between predators and fascist psychopaths
Better than cops too.
Of course they do. The first movie shows they are honorable killers / hunters. Afaik, this has always been part of their lore.
Predators do it for the hunt, not because of hate or fanaticism.
Predator is a hunter so his threat assessment is superior to trigger happy freikorp LARP.
I don’t know about your country specifically, but here in France hunters regularly shoot at cyclists. Their main union even complained about a new law imposing a legal limit of blood alcohol content during hunting sessions.
If predators have a union in your country the problem is deeper than you think.
That’s not a shitty movie detail, that’s a depressingly accurate observation.
Hah memes are funny.
deep sigh
I mean Predator seems kinda woke with that rainbow view, so it only makes sense.
IDF are low bar or A.K.A. no-bar.
Make sure to turn on rebar.
confirming that terrorist is yank for “very based person”
I thought they just liked killing kids
So we’ve gone from:
I like pancakes.
Why do you hate waffles?!
… to …
Killing children is bad.
Obviously you must have brain damage that causes you to spread hateful bigotted conspiracy theories.
Somehow, reality ended up being more ridiculous and less believable than Metal Gear Solid 2.
Its b/c they specifically responded about Jewish people. They’re outing themselves as child murderers b/c they feel attacked by the statement.
I… I know that… I’m just trying to point out how the insanity knob appears to just ratchet forward and there seemingly is no way to dial it back… we’re just gonna keep cranking it up untill it blows out the amp, so to speak.
I get blanking everything unimportant to get the point across, but I do wonder what the rest of the text said…
Of what? The Ms. Rachel post? I think that was it, the post was just a white screen that said Stop Killing Kids in the center. I saw it on Lemmy earlier but don’t have Twitter to look at the original myself.
Yeah, I didn’t even consider that it could’ve been that way from the beginning…

And why exactly does Hamas exist in the first place? Surely not because Isreal has been killing Palestinians before Isreal was even an official state.
This is actually something I don’t understand when this argument is brought up. Havent they both been killing each other since well before the modern period?
It made a little more sense when the argument was that Hamas is bad, but that doesn’t justify collateral damage to Palestinian civilians when targeting them. But it seems to me the rhetoric I see often has switched to making excuses for Hamas, who directly tries to kill children whenever they get the opportunity, including putting their own Palestinian civilians in the line of fire to confuse attacks against them and get them killed as “martyrs”. Which they use to justify their actions, even though they caused it.
I don’t see how Israel’ careless around getting noncombatants killed justifies deliberately targeting civilians, which Hamas does constantly, or doing things like putting a rocket launcher on top of a hospital just so it looks bad for Israel when they destroy it. It’s not like Hamas wants a peaceful two-state solution and Israel just isn’t playing along. And theres not a lot of anti-Hamas sentiment in Gaza since they get murdered by Hamas, and they did vote them in in the first place.
If you count the modern period as after 1900, there was no tension between the Jews and Palestinian Arabs because there were very few Jews actually living in the area. Jews made up about 3% of the population until the first Zionist conference in 1897. Following on from this, the colonial project began with European Jews moving to Palestine.
Historically every time a settler colonial population moves into a new area the demonise, oppress and attempt to kill off the native population. We had the British in Ireland, Spanish and Portuguese in south and central America, northern Europeans in North America, British again in Australia and new Zealand, European powers in the “race for Africa” and now the Jewish setter colonisers in Palestine. Israel does not want a two state solution, it is quite clear from the evidence at hand that the “greater Israel” project is their goal. The rest of the world needs to wake up to the obvious, Israel is shouting about it and the world is not listening. Boycott, Divest and Sanction the genocidal Zionists, this worked for South Africa and their apartheid regime.
That’s the same excuse as
“The Nazis genocide is, so it’s fine if we genocide others back”
“The Israelis hit civilians when destroying the rocket launcher we put on top of a hospital, so it’s okay for us the paraglide into a music concert and just start killing and raping”
Two things can be bad at the same time.
I read this with yoda’s voice.
Yeah that made it easier to understand.
It still gives context to why the person conflated the statement with Israel.
Though I think anyone in tune with the news cycle would conflate killing children with Israel.

She hosted Motaz Azaiza, the “journalist” who frequently praises Hamas, and was present with Hamas at the October 7th attack itself. So I correct myself, he only might have participated in directly killing civilians and children, but he was at least hanging out with his friends when they were doing that.

So no she didn’t, you’re just peddling lies and propaganda?
She did a video with a journalist, a journalist who also was on BBC, who was submitted one of Times top 10 photos of the year, interviewed with The Guardian, etc. A well respected international figure who has been one of the most prominent people covering Gaza from inside.

But of course to ZioNazis hes the worst person ever because he documents their genocide.
The Predator was after a worthy opponent. Something to give a challenge. The IDF are just bullies with guns. Think ICE but with different brown people.
this isnt even a shitpost, its just a good post.
