@tess The British Empire carved up its territories using the 70/25/5 rule: a 70% majority, taxed and worked for profit, plus a 25% minority from another ethnic group, armed with whips/clubs/rifles and enlisted as a middle class and tax collectors, ruled over by a 5% elite of British colonial administrators and soldiers with Gatling guns and artillery (in case of a 25% uprising). The empire then left behind new nations with built-in ethnic strife: a poor 2/3 majority vs. a less-poor 1/3 minority.

Once again: there is no “The Jews.” No one speaks for all Jewish people; there are many different points of view. Whether you are non-Jewish or Jewish, lumping every Jewish person together is dangerous, misleading rhetoric

Our morning walk coincided with the annular eclipse. Were we prepared? Sort of.
