That’s not what I’m referencing at all. can you possibly try to imagine their living conditions? For centuries?

Yes, I’m pretty sure it’s the “manly” trope of assault and battery of women.

Several years ago, I wrote Don several times asking why he wouldn’t call out Palestinians’ genocide, several times. Crickets.
