I think Iran is playing it smart not attacking the US mainland tbh. They do a targeted operation on US soil then all of a sudden Bibi will uncover a terror plot and we need boots on the ground. They’re winning the PR game, straining US alliances and seem to be managing playing defense well.
it almost seems like someone in the Madison County, NC sheriff’s office is just sitting on their ass keeping serious tabs on a short list of people living in other places.
Probably exes and/or children as Flock abusers keep getting in trouble for.
Massie was likely primaried for his stance on Israel. AIPAC was gloating about getting rid of him and they spent 30M to do it making it the most expensive primary in history.
She wanted a Senate run and Trump wouldn’t endorse her. Her moves since that and the Epstein stuff are out of spite for him and she’s coordinating with other Republicans as to not hurt their cause as a whole and burn bridges. She’s not gone yet unfortunately.
We learned about censorship efforts in the UK, EU, Australia and Canada, bud. None of us had a conniption over it.
We will still have centralized/defederated platforms that won’t comply, mesh networks and protocols like i2p but I can absolutely understand wanting out.
Since you mentioned shills and bots, I’ve been wondering if some of the types always shitting on voting were but figured this place was too small to be botted.
Their approval rating has been underwater for months, even in that cursed state.
He made gains with Hispanics then proceeded to sic ICE on them. Now many are conservative as hell and have their own issues with colorism and racism, but I am curious to see how this plays out in 2028.
I entertain this idea but also possibly him being a domineering asshole and now she’s free of him like Melania will probably be when the Big Beautiful Day comes.
This. They may also make you sell your house too. I spoke to a family who was trying to get a loved one in a nursing home and they said they were quoted something like 20,000/mo. I asked if they meant per year and they reiterated that it was per month. All that money for a place that will let you stew in your own feces…
Are you seriously suggesting companies live and die by the free market?? Those poor failing companies need taxpayer bailouts.
The norm for tech companies was to continue to burn cash after IPO for years and years to capture market share and worry about monetization later.
I don’t even agree with Biden or Harris or most AIPAC Dems near that much and certainly not the right. Nice attempted gotcha though.
Your tax money and weapons of mass destruction are being used to systematically eradicate one particular people.
Multiple bullshit wars and what’s going on in Palestine. I hate all of it. I believe in taxes to fund infrastructure, social programs, etc but until the status quo changes of bloat for the former and austerity for the rest, I find reducing my taxable income an ethical thing to do. But I find this an interesting argument to make. If you’re a part of the West, unless you don’t pay taxes, your money has almost certainly gone to fund some sort of neo-imperialist agenda – presumably also against your will.
I do care about Sudan and Myanmar, as I said all genocides are bad,
Great, now how are you effecting change on these besides typing words?
at YOU are directly responsible for Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran
I don’t own that. IMO getting Kamala in would have been a temporary insult while getting people in Congress who take no AIPAC money and obstruct, obstruct, obstruct. It’s a tactic that works. Then next presidential election with time to find non-AIPAC presidential candidates replace her. Apathy let Trump in who was actually the only one stupid enough to go to war in Iran and pour gasoline on the former issues.
As with the other commenter, I doubt you care about the genocide in Sudan or Myanmar and singularly mean Palestine. After all, we POC here in the States are so clearly expendable to you why would you care about most other POC abroad? With Palestine you get to meme on Israel all day (which is where the caring starts and ends as the online left is so averse to putting in work to effect change but somehow expect to win a revolution someday lol). With Sudan, Myanmar, there’s no reward from that as there’s no state with near the notoriety of Israel to meme on and it’s not like you’re going to actually put in work so why bother?
Genocide – by which I assume you singularly mean Palestine as I doubt you care as much about other ones going on (e.g.in Sudan, Myanmar) – is not the only issue. (And before you insinuate I don’t care about Gaza, I donate to organizations that provide aid there as well as other international crises as the war in the DRC, etc.) There’s other important issues like climate change, dismantling the prison industrial complex, restoring reproductive rights, healthcare reform, reigning in the surveillance techbros, etc. I assume you support at least the majority of these. These are all ‘important issues’ and losing ground on these has the potential to harm millions domestically and abroad.
This is recent though. The modern right galvanized on deregulation, abortion, undoing “entitlements,” and civil rights advances in the 70s-80s and showed up consistently since then at local, state and federal elections in pursuit of that. Leftists show up if they like someone and won’t if they don’t. Or at least this is my observation from living in red vs blue areas. I will concede with you though that not having funding is a relative weakness of ours and has also played a role in shaping our current environment.
It’s apparent. I think the left while more principled than the right doesn’t think strategically like the right. The right shows up consistently for their agenda of hate and disenfranchisement. Meanwhile, we are willing to let it all go to hell if it means having to suffer someone we don’t agree with 95%+ because then they’re just as bad as the other person.
He is the final boss of NPD and a lifetime of never having ever been held accountable.
~100% of these people talking shit online about “not doing enough” would not do shit were they in a similar situation and probably don’t do shit anyway as far as civic participation.
