It's not like Hamas is like that. Oh wait they are! There's Christisn Hamas. There's smugglers and the civil servants like the health ministry.

This T-shirt decorative windowshade doesn't represent the most leftist of forces. However that is irrelevant to whether or not Lebanon has the right to self defense

Rugby is safer for that reason. Players learn the helmet can be a weapon so then the rules committee had to ban that.

There's gambling. I'm a stats nerd so I gamble tiny $ on football games because of that. It's a lot of fun.

Aha. I should've read the top comment before making a long one defending football.

Hey now! I like American Football. It brings joy to millions of Americans and to the players lucky enough to get paid to do it and not have catastrophic brain damage.

Plenty of things cause brain damage. Most Zs and Millenials on the left support the legalization of drugs.

War causes much more brain damage and mental problems than football and we have far more soldiers than football players. Abolish war!

Looks like the US is remaking the Soviet Union. Thought that's what Putin was supposed to be doing.

Apparently nobody has enough to watch somehow

I don't really watch much YT and only know of Bread Tube by hearing people criticize it. Although I've heard of Contrapoints and was shown a short skit that was unremarkable

Yeah that's unfortunate as I've checked into it. He opposed the installed president but also opposed Aristide. I spent too much time checking into that

Edit: I'm deciding to leave this up as there's some good info. It looks like he opposed empire but wanted to personally profit. The Haitian earthquake brought out all sorts of shadiness

First off the US sponsored coups in Haiti in 1991 and 2004

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Uphold_Democracy

https://haitisolidarity.net/in-the-news/the-final-chapter-has-still-not-been-written-remembering-the-2004-coup-in-haiti/

Over 300k people died in the 2010 Haiti Earthquake

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Haiti_earthquake

Wyclef Jean attempted to run for president against the US backed leader in 2010 but was declared ineligible by election officials go gave no reason, and suffered harassment and death threats from political opponents in Haiti.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/aug/22/wyclef-jean-haiti-presidential-election

He was also widely criticized by celebrities in the US who claimed he wasn't Haitian enough and had no experience. Among those who criticized him was the founding member of the Fugees, Pras

It gets weirder because shorlty after the earthquake Pras decided to do to side with two empres? Which ones, well the US and China of course. He was convicted on ten counts including a failed conspiracy to funnel money from the Malaysian businessman Jho Low and the government of China to Obama in 2012 and Donald Trump in 2016. He was convicted on 10 counts including conspiracy, fraud, witness tampering and acting as an unregistered foreign agent of China.

https://hiphopdx.com/news/fugees-rapper-pras-found-guilty-of-political-conspiracy-faces-20-years

It's kinda wild really. WTF. There was a Fugees reunion concert while Pras was fighting his legal battle. I wonder what Lauryn Hill thought of her bandmates political activities, and if Wyclef and Pras got along. Now that the empire had fucked both of them.

Wyclef famously sang: If I was President, I'd get elected on Friday, Assasinated on Saturday, Burried on Sunday, They go back to work on Monday

I wonder what he's up to now.
