I feel really foolish that it took me at least a minute to realize that by "I did not give up Target and Taco Bell to live in a dictatorship" that the intended meaning was "I didn't move to the Zionist Entity for the colony to have specifically this leadership"

Like I could glean that this was a Zionist protesting Netanyahu, probably the judicial reform specifically, but I just could not mentally connect "giving up Target and Taco Bell" with "leaving Seppoland"... Because like why would Target and Taco Bell be the two things someone would miss most from Seppoland? Like even out of the treats. Fuck me I remember such fond memories of visiting Seppoland, like feeling my soul leaving my body as I walked through an endless labyrinth of plastic junk and high fructose corn syrup; or waiting in line to order low-grade slop to reduce my life expectancy, while the guy in front of me had a "Let's Go Brandon" Three Percenters t-shirt on, and there was just a straight-up police SUV in the parking lot outside. Ain't that something you could just get soooo homesick for?

And coming home to a rent payment you can't afford because you haven't had a real raise in 10 years... but hey, Real Housewives of ___ is on. Yee Haw!

Why would you not have access to Taco Bell and Target (or equivalent) in fucking Tel Aviv?

I don't even believe this sign. It sounds like she's just an influencer doing weird plugs.

Eh, there’s no target in canada, it’s not that much of a stretch that they don’t have it or taco bell in “israel”. What I don’t doubt though is that there are absolutely equivalents available and this is just an american whining about how things aren’t exactly the same as the states

You've got some flavor of Big Box up there.

Given how many businesses are just retail front-ends for Alibaba and Temu, I would be shocked if there weren't. But its fundamentally the same shit.
