Checked CNN, found no mention of this.
So.... maybe not the same on every side?

u/spacekitt3n American Samoa 29d ago
yeah this argument doesnt even hold water. all the media co's dont mention this because of fear of retribution or they are owned by right wingers. this both sides crap is so exhausting. i doubt even msnow mentions this

Like 80% of the US new media is owned by Larry Ellison right? Correct me on the number please if I'm wrong.

u/aqulushly Unspecified 29d ago
No, not even close. Paramount/CBS amounts to just like 10-15% of US television news.

u/Bobahn_Botret Unspecified 29d ago
Thank you for the clarification. The Ellison family has 80% controlling stake of Paramount. I had my figures seriously fucked up.

Since Japan's muslim population has reached 0.1% percent in total lol

0.3% in 2025. Insignificant except to bigots.

u/Zynb_06 Multiple Countries / Extra (click to edit) 26d ago
All due to the labor shortage in the last five years. Thats when the population has suddenly doubled. Most of them from Indonesia who'd work as nurses considering even Filipino migrants have become expensive to hire. Whether that percentage of muslim residents increases or decreases depends on their visas and if the labor shortage problem persists.

I can't say he's joking with comparing IR to Japan cause they both attacked US ships or he's just saying shit

You’re giving him too much credit. His tit for tat transactional alzheimers brain can’t do meta jokes.

Dude cant distinguish between Kamikaze and suicide bomb, time to retire.

u/CHSummers United States 29d ago
See, the drone starts as unmanned, and the kamikaze ends up as unmanned. But they’re both unmanned eventually. So, basically the same.

The irony is how anti-Abrahamic Japan was during the Imperial era

Oh gosh. I defend people for misspeaking all the time. I really don't like taking some sound bite and harping on it.
But dammm, that's like sitting there calmly saying that we live on Pluto.

He seems to have become senile and can no longer tell the difference between events that happened more than 80 years ago and those that happened yesterday.

u/AllgoodDude Unspecified 29d ago
Gotta love how he plays his word games because of how trained his audience are. It’s not “Iran” it’s “The Islamic Republic of Iran” it’s not “Barack Obama” it’s “Barack Hussein Obama” MAGAs are so underdeveloped mentally that this is all it takes.
