This is the only reason I own a pair of cut resistant gloves. Makes the mandoline actually a useful and safe kitchen tool.

They were, but when evaluated against their original claim its pretty apparent they were doing it to establish a whataboutism.

It’s because he’s attempting to utilize the fact that America was and potentially still is an ethno-state to lessen the culpability of the Israeli ethno-state.

While modern America uses systemic racism to establish an ethnic hierarchy, unlike Israel it doesn’t expressly by law prohibit the movement or upward mobility of different ethnicities. Even if it did, that fact would not lessen the culpability of another state doing the same.

Context and nuance is important.

For the vast majority of its history absolutely. It wasn’t until the civil rights movement where that was even somewhat debatable.

considering Israel is more ethnically diverse

Apartheid South Africa was ethnically diverse… Still an ethno-state.

Ethno-states aren’t defined as lacking diversity, they are defined by an ethnic creating and maintaining a dominant hierarchy of that diversity.

Gosh why do people hate the Jews so much. 🫤

The problem with ethno-states is that it makes it super easy for people like yourself to conflate ethnicity with nationality.

People don’t hate the Jews, people hate ethno-states who are currently committing a genocide. Many of these people who hate the state of Israel for their genocide are Jews themselves.

It really depends on your energy source and your appliance, but the cost to run something like an oven for an hour is pretty negligible, especially if it’s a somewhat modern appliance.

Most newer over run somewhere around 2-3,000 kwh, which nationwide averages to around .30 to .50 cents an hour.

The real cost of making food at home really just depends on how much you value your own labour/free time, and how much of a chore cooking is for you.

Yep, what we consider to be level is relative to what you use to establish an axial plane.

Yes, some people naturally have better 3d spatial awareness. You can also train your eyes to be better over time. I work in orthotics and prosthetics and have to sculpt positive models of different body parts. We also have to do GAIT analysis where we have to observe the angle of different joints while a patient ambulates.

Some people are just better at it than others starting out, especially if they have prior similar experience. I teach a lot of residents and have noticed that students that have a background in art or construction tend to have a better eye for angles. A lot of it is just practicing by observing different angles compared to something that is known to be square.

I have also trained people who never seem to be able to improve their ability to see angles, which is a big hindrance in their careers. A lot of schools actually have students take a spacial awareness test before students begin studying in the field.
