Lmao, I don't particularly like the DSA but leave it to Fox to make them look sick 😂
Except that's proven untrue. They've shown, over and over, that they'd rather lose than move the old guard left. I can't afford to let them lose again, I'm on the precipice here as it is. Absolutely primary their asses whenever possible, get progressives in the race, but I'm not gonna risk handing what little blue remains here over to the GOP for nothing. It could, quite literally, be the death of me.
Breaking it isn't possible, so patching is the best we've got right now
Most of us can't afford to run. It's not exactly easy, and we've got jobs we can't afford to leave
Maybe, but the issue is that they ARE the better of two options. I'm a trans woman in a red state with tinges of blue. Sacrificing a single seat on the altar of my ideals could directly cost me real key rights. Sucks but idk what TO DO about it
It's more because they know that those of us on the left have no goddamn choice. Without a true left party, they're the best we've got, and they know it. It sucks.
See, I'm ngl, I've never once thought "boy do I wish this character was having sex". Out here in the real world it's not like people are just having casual sex left and right, I feel like unless there's a plot related reason for it, it just adds nothing and actively takes me out of the story.
Believe me, I'd leave if I could. It's rough here
Yeppppp. I wish I had any path out of this place cause the ship is sinking and those with the means to do anything about it are either silent or complicit
While the first part is true, the latter, sadly, not so much. There IS a large rise in antisemitism, which I've seen returning to the mainstream at a frightful pace. The actions of netanyahu and Israel have undone decades of progress, providing cover for truly vile people to drop the mask. Ironically, their claims that they fight for Jews worldwide are harming us too.
I really hope this is satire because if not....then jfc..
Except most of us can't really get citizenship elsewhere. Pretty much the only place I could go would be, well, Israel. And thats not an improvement soooo.
It's important to remember that the "chosen people" doesn't mean "get it all". It means chosen to uphold the covenant. It's why proselytizing is forbidden, that's pushing the covenant on others who aren't obligated to share the burden. The actual Torah says, essentially, that everybody of all nations are gods children, and all will go to Heaven if they live a good life. Only the Jews also have to follow all the other rules.seeing it be perverted to justify Israel's actions infuriates me.
I gotta hand it to trump and bibi. They've managed to make Iran, Hezbollah, AND Hamas look like the good guys, or at the very least not the villains, to millions around the world. They've truly done what I honestly wasn't sure was possible after we kidnapped a country's leader in broad daylight, and pushed the line so far that the world said fuck it and are walking away from the US. Turns out we'll be celebrating the 250th with the shattering of US hegemony. Damn do I wish I was Canadian 😂
Calling that correct is certainly a take. War crimes are war crimes, everywhere.
I'm getting a bit tired of the "the IS is run by Israel" posts I'm seeing everywhere. It treads dangerously close to a certain stereotype. Is it really so far fetched to believe that the US is simply being shitty for its own imperialist reasons? The US gets something out of all this too, or would if it was being perpetrated by somebody less totally inept. Trump does as he does because he's a Narcissistic Idiot, not because he's bibis puppet
I wish I could feel more optimism at the moment, but as amazing as it is that 8 mil showed ... The administration just doesn't care
Yepp, another Georgian. My county went like 70% for trump. Literally lost friends who said I was being hysterical and that it didn't really matter anyways. We're fucked. I've never despised my country this much before.
Thank God. Man I hate my country 😭
This is dangerously close to the age old line about Jews secretly controlling the governments of the world.... Is that really a more logical explanation than a bunch of western nations having similar foreign policy objectives and goals? This is just good old fashioned imperialism.
Lmao, Cuba and China? I'm not exactly a fan of US foreign (and domestic);policy but come ON.
I was no big fan of Hillary, but I absolutely voted for her because I'd course I fucking did. It boggles the mind that TWICE this fucking country chose a man as vile as trump, over a woman. How are we so fucking lost as a society....
Yep. He's one of, if not the ONLY, Republican politicians left who genuinely believes in his policies, and their ability to help th people. I respected his father, and mccain, for the same thing. Even if I'd never vote for em. At least they stood for SOMETHING. Most Republicans now are just grifters
You might be right.its ingenious In its simplicity
I'm so confused. What are you trying to say here??
Where I Iive, most races are uncontested Republicans sadly... Dems don't even bother running anybody
I hate that the GoP keeps lumping us in with the Christian Nationalists. "Judaochristian". Judaism is quite clear on the ten commandments relationship with non Jews. They aren't relevant. It's against the Torah to try and force them on others. Majorly. Good on this teacher, shame they'll probably be fired
God I wish I wasn't American... This place is so fucking embarrassing.
And where did they come from? All sources Ive found so far indicate nothing of the sort. Israel's real crimes are bad enough without bringing blood libel into this. If there's any actual evidence of the implied crime, I'd love to see it.
I'm gonna need some sources on this one. Israel's real crimes are horrific enough without using one of the oldest stereotypes in the book (it was common to accuse Jews of organ harvesting). I find myself doubtful here without evidence
