I always have to preface this by saying I am by no means a Putin apologist, but just follow the money. America loves a war no matter where it is. And why? Because we gotta sell all these bombs and missiles to someone…

Nor are they “boys”. They’re like mid-late thirties men.
It has nothing to do with it. It’s a straw-man argument. You could do the same kind of misdirection by comparing the number of US-related foreign conflicts under Trump vs Obama + Biden, and that wouldn’t prove anything either. The fact remains that a large portion of Kamala’s constituency wants an arms embargo and those people are being completely ignored.
Trump is a nightmare for sure, but I’d argue every US president from at least the past 80 years is a war criminal who should be behind bars.
No, alternating current doesn’t have a polarity like DC does.
You… don’t know what a floppy disk is, do you?
Completely false. UN weapons inspectors were allowed in Iraq unconditionally from September 2022 right up until the US went to war in March 2023. They found no evidence that Iraq had any stockpiles of WMD. That kinda rained on Bush’s parade though, so his administration simply ignored those findings.
Completely agree. It was really frustrating to hear Bernie evoke FDR in his speech without being honest about how he accomplished so much: by packing the courts and being extremely aggressive in pushing through a real progressive agenda. It really highlights the failings of the party more than anything.
The guy who went to Kyiv a couple months ago and sang “Rockin’ In the Free World” at a bar? Yeah, he’s not out of touch at all. What a ghoul
No! That’s all I use Reddit for nowadays…
You should read up on McKinsey, the company that employed him as a consultant. They make Monsanto look like the Peace Corps.
Thank you.
Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is what fucks up your liver. Ibuprofen will cause stomach problems such as ulcers, but it won’t damage your liver.
Biden regularly ignores the express will of his constituents with regards to Israel, drug decriminalization, judicial overreach, tax reform, and immigration. His DOJ just forced a foreign national to plead guilty under US espionage laws. That’s all authoritarian as hell.
Also, the article specifically mentions policing and criminalization with regards to immigration and your response is that he TRIED to increase funding to ICE but the right wouldn’t let him. But that’s the whole point - more cops is not the answer. Abolish ICE. Giving them more money is the same solution Trump wants to implement. You realize we’re still putting kids in cages, right?
Yeah are we just ignoring the racial slurs? Bigots gonna be bigot-ing. Usually they’ll do so on 4chan.
Wow this screenshot of four people with the same opinion talking to each other in an echo chamber has really changed my mind. Thanks, internet!
When I was a teen protesting the Iraq war (which Biden supported, btw) we couldn’t imagine anyone worse than Dubya. Now we have Trump. Still probably not responsible for as many dead as Bush, but one could argue he’s worse on the domestic front. Now Bush hangs out with Ellen and we all laugh at his paintings like he’s a harmless old man.
So, join me in a thought experiment. Ten years from now someone comes along who’s worse than Trump. Are you going to be telling me I have to vote for Trump because this other person is so much worse? Democrats scream about how great the economy is, but for whom? Not for me or anyone I know. Biden enacts these limp-dick half-measures that satisfy neither the right nor the left. He’s a bad politician. Period. His one job is to convince constituents to re-elect him. He can’t even accomplish that. But since his opponent is awful I have to vote for him. Fuck that.
Who was president when abortion was stripped of federal protection. Who was president when we started funding not one but two proxy wars overseas? Inflation. Shrinkflation. Student loans. You can bandy about all the google searches you want, the proof is in Americans’ day-to-day lives. Page one of the Dems playbook is to say, “Oh dear we wish we could help, but those pesky Republicans…!” And yet when they had control of the Exec and the Legislative branches in Obama’s first term, what leftist utopia did they create?
Read the transcript of Biden’s most recent Time interview. The whole thing. The man doesn’t complete a single thought. And we on the left love to shit on Trump (rightfully so) for talking like an incoherent hospice patient.
Palestine is merely the latest in a long long litany of disappointments, blunders, and outright betrayals (see the railworkers union-busting). If Biden was my employee I’d fire him. If he was my boss I’d quit. But he’s just my president so I’m not voting for him.
One year of beans and jeans. Here’s to many more!
Happy cake day, twin. I guess June 12th is like the baby boom for lemmy
Because they would be labeled as a terrorist and promptly dismissed. Gandhi wasn’t perfect, but he knew how to get shit done. The US is the most destructive and lethal country in the world, just like Kamala said at the DNC.
