my guy looks a little like mona lisa with similar ambiguity of expression. no matter where you stand in the room, he thinks you're palestinian.
This is the most hilarious comment I've read in a while. Thank you!
that means i've reached my biannual quota of hilarious comments-- and so soon into 2025, see you in 2027 lemmy! 👋 (me realizing biannual is twice a year.. its too late)
Biannual is two years. Half a year is semiannual.
It's unfair that bimonthly and biweekly can mean either or, but biannual gets to be specific. I say we banish it to ambiguity like the others.
No, those follow the same rule.
I could never keep those straight.
He's got a bit of that patented Mr Beast Combo of vacant gaze and simulated smile, too.
Mona Lisa's eyebrows may have faded with time, but his appear to have migrated down onto his eyelids, somehow.
Somehow someone's gonna blame this on Hamas.
Moments after being shot, the Israeli man who was the victim of the shooting took to social media and wrote, “My father and I went through a murder attempt against anti-semitic background.” He finished his social media post with the words, “Death to Arabs.”
Dude is literally an Arab Jew. Wow. You can't make this shit up.
Blinded by hatred seems applicable here. 😔
I had to verify that this is a real story because of how batshit insane it is, and, well, yes, apparently it is. :(

The married, 27-year-old Collins Avenue condominium owner gave “plumber” as his occupation to arresting officers
Not only is he a racist asshole, and murderous asshole, but he's also a landlord, hence, triple asshole.
The only saving grace here was this chucklefuck was as bad at killing people as he is at basic common sense and decency. The guy is literally a storm trooper.
Per the article you linked to:
Dustin Tischler, Brafman’s attorney, said in a statement to the Herald on Monday night that his client “was experiencing a severe mental health emergency” when he opened fire.
Maybe don’t rush to judgment so much? Wait for more information.
What the hell? What mental health emergency explains wanting to kill two people based on their perceived race?
Schizophrenia.
Ah, so it stated that in the article or you're a qualified psychiatrist?
I’m a therapist.
Please rethink that career path.
Every defense lawyer in a shooting case is going to claim mental duress in a shooting.
People who commit racially motivated crimes don't get the benefit of the doubt.
Does this man have a history of mental health problems? Are they under the care and supervision of a mental health provider? Are they taking anti psychotic meds?
If any of those statements are true, what were they doing in possession of a firearm in the first place?
All those questions deserve proper investigation. I was not excusing this man from his crimes, merely pointing out his lawyer was claiming he’d had a mental health crisis and that they should be investigated.
And I’m a pretty damn good therapist so I think I’m gonna keep it up. Maybe you should just go fuck yourself?
Kind of two different things. You didn't ask what mental health emergency he was specifically having, you asked what kind would explain it. That would definitely explain it
Being a racist schizophrenic who murders people still makes you a racist murderer. He certainly targeted a perceived race he hated.
It explains it, it doesn't excuse it. If your brain snaps and suddenly you perceive something as a rational thing to do you don't really have control at that point. Basically just points to punishment or treatment, not a get out of jail card.
Legit response, your down votes are undeserved lol
Well the lawyer for their client is going to say something like this. Has the man been evaluated for this mental health emergency?
I also wonder which disorder in the DSM manifests with wanting to kill Palestinians.
Perhaps you shouldn’t listen to the defence attorney in their press releases and see what comes out in court.
Isn't that kind of what he's saying? Maybe don't rush to judgement because there might be more to it?
Not that it makes a significant amount of difference aside from treatment, he's obviously a danger to society whether the cause was medical or otherwise. At that extreme you might argue that it's mental health disorder range whether it's diagnosed as something specific or not.
Do you think when he went to the barber he specifically asked to look like a ventriloquist dummy who is also a sex criminal, or was this just the best he could do?
Nothing like a little hate crime to get social media all abuzz
Shot at the victims 17 times. He didn't hit them 17 times.
Florida man gonna do Florida man shit.
less a florida man and more a zionist terrorist. He went out to "hunt" palestinians with a gun. In the US.
That’s his best “My bad.” expression.
Why did he shoot them?
Won't be the last case with these kinds of radicalized assholes.
It hurt itself in its confusion!
