If I didn’t go to Al jazzera or Middleeasteye’s websites I’d have no clue

It’s also worth wondering how much being young, attractive, and/or charming mattered here. People seem to really care about that stuff!

no joke I kinda think it could be cool if a lot of rich people leave California bc that might make it more affordable to move to

I know there are tax revenue implications but I seems like it’d be way more fun without the rich

Fuck this Reaganite bullshit

this is more learned helplessness. sitting around whining as if we aren't capable of action ourselves so nothing can change.

as if political parties can't change or be changed rapidly by passionate people making demands

like have these people watched the GOP

Pete Hegseth at a military funeral, noting that the departed will be dearly missed, before hurriedly adding "no homo"

Pete Hegseth at a military funeral, solemnly ripping off his shirt to perform a 21-push up salute to the fallen.

Dick Cheney was more visible in the immediate aftermath of 9/11 than Vance is right now and he was in an underground bunker.

If you told Americans that conservatives’ main argument during the Cold War was that we were pussies for not turning it into
WW3, they’d think you’re insane or lying. We really need to teach history

I was cooking here

Yes, just like the Jim Crow South was a white state. I'm sorry you think apartheid and Jim Crow are acceptable when done to Muslims - you must not see them as people

CEO thinks he is blue collar because he (presumably) has a penis

up against the wall motherfucker

Like all bigots, you are unable to argue on the substance. Here you are solely attacking my identity and ignoring any points I make.

Your hatred for LGBT people and Palestinians is noted. Go buy a red hat, maybe apply to join ICE while you're at it!

I get that you're a white supremacist. Pretending to be pro-LGBT won't hide that

nah, if I was in Gaza Israel would be blackmailing me by threatening to expose my secrets so that I'd collaborate with them as they exterminate my family. that's what they do to queer Palestinians. Israel is also only getting more anti-LGBT every day

accusing everyone of being a traitor for not unleashing a world war you assume is easily winnable...it really does go back to Hitler as usual.

Goldwater had the same message in the 60s - the US not making the Cold War an actual war was "treason" and cowardice.

lmao. such a good analogy.

There's a broad refusal on the right to acknowledge constraints. Because the constraints must be excuses for the weak, woke politicians who won't let our power loose in this reckless way - those who refuse to assert our will

yo you can go to Twitter with your crusading anti muslim bullshit. you aren't welcome here or amongst people who care about democracy

Man, you're fucking racist. "Dearborn" is just one hive mind to you, not individual people. Despicable genocidal thoughts in your brain

in their defense (not really but you get what I mean), most Western/global elites have capitulated to them without a fight for the past 10 years. They were already arrogant and events seemed to confirm they could do whatever they want without consequences

can this be a solution?

Trump does seem uniquely able to do that within the GOP. But seems like a tall order

like I'm trans but I'm not going to start arguing that it would be okay for trans people to enact a police state that makes cis/straight people walk through armed checkpoints to visit their mom or get medicine. that would be wrong, in my opinion

if I invaded your house and killed your family your neighbors might not recognize my ownership of your house. That wouldn't be wrong of them.

Does the People's Republic of China have a "right to exist?"
Did the Jim Crow South?

Was Martin Luther King a bad guy for denying Jim Crow's right to exist?

He probably doesn’t mind the constant antisemitism, but the Islamophobia must be a bit much

Watch this clip.

Professors will recognize this kid as the student who didn't do the reading but still has very strong opinions about how it's all "bullshit," except this time he's not the callow student who's going to fail your course, he's the reviewer who's going to cancel your grant.

Me, in 30 years having not gotten the news that the boycott ended

Like the bible says: live by the sword, no worries
