the recent articles describing how she and biden literally did nothing to pressure netanyahu to end the genocide proves that she’s worse than status quo; she’s a willing participant to a genocide and defended it during the election.
i’ve never heard of this guy; do you know where i can find his work?
It’s a bit alarming to see more Canadian Cons didn’t reject him however, but after 3 liberal terms it gets harder and harder.
the vote is so close that it’s clear that trump is the reason why he didn’t and it also means that the conservatives will win the next time they try without someone like trump in power.
all of this is true of any party or group that supports this sort of capitalist imperialism since it’s inherent contradictions perpetually lead to making life unpleasant and, so, that requires a new social welfare state like fdr’s new deal to come along every few decades sap the popular strength for overhauling the system and to keep the cluster fuck going for the rich.
this guy has a knack for theatrics; the steps are nearby where he needs be to actually have any meaningful impact, but in broad view of everyone else so that it looks like he’s doing something useful and i bet it’ll work for his presidential campaign.
i wish voyager had spent more time with neelix’s depth because it seems like there’s a lot there from admitting that he made up stories about being in the talaxian military to his experiences as a first responder to the metreon cascade incident and onwards to reconciling his religious beliefs through nurturing naomi wildman.
kes knew that his comedic relief bit was forced as a means to make him more agreeable and i bet it would have a done a lot for his character if we got to see it that way more often too; some of the most outwardly happy people i know irl have gone through some terrible things in their past and their big forced smiles are functional coping mechanisms.
i know that this type of sexual behavior is described on the kinsey scale since i’m op’s exact opposite; but the verbose justification where kinsey was more succinct has my-lady-doth-protest-too-much energy, but with a dash of transphobia.
like covid; i would expect a lot of useless cheerleading from democrats and liberals and i’ve-got-mine-fuck-you’s from republicans and conservatives. and, also just like covid, 3 years later, we’ll suffer from selective amnesia about it while voting in the next election.
it’s like our education & welfare systems have been intentionally defunded for decades to keep us in line with our ruling classes’ desires and make us buy into silly groupthink ideas like american exceptionalism; but, of course, that’s the not true since that can only happen in oligarchies like russia or china and, also, could never happen to us, the greatest country that the world has ever seen. /s
I never thought of it as powerful before and I like it! Lol
I used to be on .world also but left partially because of the points you’ve made and switching to .ml has been MUCH better for me.
I’ve been moving from one social media platform to another, since the time of icq & bbs, every time it enshitifies and it’s clear that happens once it becomes centralized enough and w significant financial backing.
.world and .ee are the closest things to that, that exists on the lemmyverse and I hope that they don’t go down the same path.
Not more stoked than I; I’ve never had a busier social life and my asocially autistic ass is still surprised by it each time I get another invite.
I’m aware that it makes people cringe, but it’s so true that I’ve never been more happy; more bottoms than a top could ever ask for… Enough to over come the negativety from all the judgemental or bitter queens.
It still matters who they target, both trump and obama targeted groups that couldn’t fight back; brown people and children respectively.
– thus making the escape so much better when it happens. lol
democrats refuse to accept that obama and biden deported more people than trump and bush could ever fantasize about, so your sarcasm is likely to fall on deaf ears at best.
… and recorded 176 migrant deaths over the last fiscal year, making it the deadliest stretch …
i think that this part of the article reflects the capitalist root of what’s wrong with this us and explains why this situation is so fucked
and the democrats will continue to help
technically; that was a movie, not tng.
i think people intentionally being starved and bombed to death is a bigger issue that posturing yourself to win an election
