“An insult to all of us who worked hard to earn a verified terrorist badge through the proper channels.”
Shawna Dorwart, Consultant Coach
“But those users don’t have to apologize for being Palestinian?”
Cody Blanchard, Bematist

“It’s fascinating how auto-translation bugs can sometimes mirror the exact sentiments of the people in charge of them.”
