But they are (used to be?) not indifferent to powerful pedophiles running the country

Hate to break it to you, but they are completely indifferent to that, as long as it is their pedophiles running the country. Are people new here? Are you really so oblivious as to how fascists words work that you naively take them upon it?

Of course he had to, that was the entire point of it all. This was a huge Nuremberg rally in memory of their Horst Wessel.

It is amazing that these cultists still have any money left, since as soon as they announce their MAGA adherence they are basically putting up a "scam me" flag for every scammer on Earth to exploit. Their social media is basically nothing but scams designed to fleece these morons, including the ones by their orange god.

Especially pointless since the plates are literally the easiest part to clean.

In Catholicism during medieval times, it was forbidden for Christians to lend money with interest (based on selective interpretation of the Bible). Jews would of course be exempt from that, so it was a nice workaround, because there was no ban on Christians lending money from Jews. This enabled Jews to get an early foothold in the finance industry before banking was even really a thing.

Combined with the already mentioned ban on Jews working in most professions in Christian countries well into early modern times (many places until the 19th century in fact), it was a pretty natural development that many Jews entered this profession.

Downvotes are only blocked on that instance to user accounts created from it. Accounts from other instances can still see the downvotes (and vote).

"My petition to this oligarchic corporation didn't work, so surely my petitions to these oligarchic corporations will surely work!"

It is definitely also a question of quality. Not just because the concept of food safety was non-existant back then, but if we are talking about a really poor person, the bread and cheese (and mostly there would be no cheese at all) would be stale, the wine full of dregs, but watered down so much that they would barely be able to taste how vinegary it was.

He did indeed manage to undermine more of the crumbling vestiges of US democracy than many gives him credit for.

So why do you need an external creator to believe in them?
