[character] Isn't all that "Technical Analysis" stuff basically astrology?

[yellow is angry at a picture of Israel labeled "JEWS"] This is wrong, by now we all understand that Israel and jews are two different things, conflating them is antisemitic

[yellow is now smiling at a picture of a man holding a rock above the text FREE PALESTINE] This picture is bad because of Hamas I see no difference between Palestinian resistance and a terrorist organization This is not a hateful comparison because I am morally inconsistent (also I'm kinda racist I guess lol)
