Damn. The ultra-Orthodox testing the limits more and more. Scary stuff

So long as both streets lead into (also segregated) bins, fine!

Bruh. I hate Israel and Israelis, and condemn their behaviour and the genocide they're doing. But this sounds way too much like something some neo-nazi scumbag would say, clearly referencing the incineration of Jewish people during the Holocaust.

Good point. I typed and posted without thinking. Edited.

We have excess wealth from all the pillaging and exploitation! What to do? Make infrastructure? Do science? Throw a party?

No! Just create deeper divisions and separation!
