Very hard to imagine. Most Democrats genuinely believe that the system can be fixed by sheer force of ‘civility’. Packing the court is too far outside of ‘the norm’.

Does that prove that money in politics doesn’t matter?

Lmao

He’s not disconnected, he’s not “failing to read the room”, etc. He’s doing his job, just like he’s always done. He’s there to make sure that “left” party doesn’t fuck around and actually get something done for working class people.

If you libs spent half as much time calling your beloved dem politicians and haranguing them over their dogshit policies as you do hallucinating Russian bots, you might get more done.

Read the whole comment again.

You had me going for a minute haha.

I was thinking about owning other human beings, as most of them did.

They made a lot of grave errors.

Did CISA do it?

I didn’t say they weren’t. I’m just saying that your observation is, at best, pointless, and at worst, serves the state’s narrative.

You moralizing about what is essentially an uncontrollable phenomenon, is serving the narrative of the opposing side. Nobody is in control of a riot by definition. All kinds of shit is gonna get fucked up. Focusing on individual incidents is falling into a trap that the ruling class lays for a credulous audience.

They should turn their weapons on the brass.

Decades of totalizing propaganda, along with merciless suppression of alternatives.

It’s not just MAGA yelling that, it’s pretty much the entire political “establishment”.

We’ve always been a barbaric nation. Please stop pretending that we haven’t.

I agree with pretty much everything you say here, but the last sentence.

I hear ya. What actually worries me is if Europe decides to involve itself militarily. I think the chance is slim, but that’s the only way I could see any attempted invasion of Iran. They are in a very tight spot with energy, and they seem to be 100% against negotiating with Russia, while also 100% unable (or unwilling) to influence Trump regarding Iran. Hard to imagine they could dedicate any military resources towards Iran though, considering what they already send to Ukraine, or want to deter Russia with. Still, as winter comes and fuel costs rise, something will have to give.

I don’t think so. It’s not as if longstanding, bipartisan US policy isn’t antagonistic towards Iran for its own reasons. I do think Bibi helped coax Trump into actually bombing Iran by giving him a rosy assessment, but even Trump won’t fall for that twice.
