Why is Dale Earnhardt so frequently used in memes like this? Is it for some inscrutable Internet Reason, or is he actually a pretty pro-worker guy?

Is that the car driver?? I've been wondering this too...
- I asked this a little while back, so I'll pass along the answer: because Nascar is typically not associated with these leftist political leanings, and by association of new ideas with familiar imagery you might gently help someone become more open to considering these notions in good faith instead of a knee jerk reaction against it.
  
  It's honestly pretty clever, and if it helps these ideas find new homes in communities they weren't always welcome in then I'd say it's worth it.
Dale was at least known to be a pretty stand up guy. Removed a confederate sticker off his truck after a black friend of his told him it was hurtful.
- Oh yeah? Good for him, then!

I’m not even a NASCAR fan but RAISE HELL PRAISE DALE

Or maybe Paulo

Is this how we win over the Trump crowd? Attributing various philosophy quotes to Dale Earnhard. Cuz if so, I would love it. We can make bumper stickers and everything.

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs - Dale Earnhardt"

These have gotten much better. 🙂

Okay, so can someone please give me an unbiased truth of who's the good guy and who's the bad guy between Israel and palestine? Every bit of news and meme and comment I see has opposing perspectives. What is the truth here?

Palestinians and Israelis are for the most part good people, Hamas and Israel (the State) are both bad guys. With Israel's reaction more and more Palestinians will join Hamas (just like killing hundreds of thousands in the middle East didn't solve anything after 3000 Americans died on 9/11 and it even made things worse) and the more people join Hamas and attack Israelis, the more of them are ready to join Israel's army.

In the end no one wins.
- Except all Israelis have to serve in the IDF or they face jail time. The only Jews in Israel that don't have to serve are the ultra orthodox Jews who are the ones that are the most devout Zionists. The situation over there is extraordinarily fucked.
- Window dressing distraction from Ukraine anyway. Seems to be working.
Its all about the power dynamics, Israel has all the power and can end the conflict at anytime and seek peace. They are also an ethnostate where nonjews are second class citizens. There needs to be a 2 state solution where Palestinians have independence and freedom from the yok of the Israelis or a 1 state solution where both sides have equal political liberties. The Hamas attack happened because of the stranglehold Israel has over the Palestinian people and the Israeli response was to strangle even harder. I dont support Hamas, but Israel has actively supported them by refusing to allow Palestinians the agency to be their own state and continueing to steal their land in the West Bank with Illegal Settlements. Israel has murdered a magnitude more Palestinians than than Hamas killed on their attack. Israel had also been treating Palestinians horribly for decades before this attack and its only gotten worse.
The vast majority of Israelies and Palestinians are good people just trying to live their lives.

The leadership of both are the bad guys.
- Thank you for explaining. This is a logical explanation and I will accept this one.
