excellent point, killing innocent civilians is very wrong. As is starving them and abusing them for 80 years. All those things, just plain wrong, no matter the reasoning.

Good point, and a perfect centrist take (not that I’m accusing you of being centrist). They should have a centrist viewing and commentary of the whole star wars series. Like mystery science theatre 3000.

Well the IDF better launch an investigation into this, right away. Or else.

Biden would have sold it to buy more bombs for Israel.

They are drawing very stern looking frowney faces on the weapon shipping crates. VERY stern.

We have to wait for ‘history’ to handle this for us, huh.

Do not, my friends, become addicted to food. It will take hold of you, and you will resent its absence.

are you talking about progressives or centrists, dagwood?

She abandoned all her progressives positions early. I’m no political consultant, but I think thats usually not the best method to win over progressives. I dont think she planned on progressive support-- I think someone told her she could win some republicans and never have to talk to a progressives ever again.

The straightest consistently whitest guy up there is Bernie, just saying. I bet he’s never had a tan in his whole life.

This “red flag” is meaningless to people broke the age of 50 or so. I am a Democrat. I vote for the candidate who is a Democrat. Obama was a Democrat.

I get it man. I’m over 50 too and my team is the White Sox. I support the White Sox no matter that. Whats important in sports is that you support the team of your home town. Sure they were the worst team in 2024 and not entertaining to watch. Doesnt matter.

Anyone who writes scathing articles of the sox pathetic performance in the newspaper is wrong and disloyal, and is missing the whole point of sports. Its not about celebrating human athleticism and competition in striving to to be the best a human can be, its about adherence and loyalty to the corporation who owns your local team.

Adherence to your political party is similar. Government is not about advancing or serving society, its about eating rotten scraps off the floor and being grateful for having that much.

Sort of, sometimes. They can and will heavily disadvantage candidates they dont like. Like when they gave Hillary the questions for debates beforehand but not to Bernie, and let hillary control the funding of races, including her own. And like when they cut new hampshire out of the primary results this year because the New Hampshire dems wouldnt move the date for the primary to when the dnc wanted. So sure you could vote in that primary, but nothing was done with the results. Straight to the garbage can with those ballots.

Russia says they have a democracy too, with votes and everything. Not saying we’re the same, but proving we have “democracy” by the fact that voting happens is not that firm of a thing. Its easily corrupted.

I dont think the electoral system allows for this “nobody” person to win. Maybe someone can change their legal name to “nobody”.

Schumer said his job is keeping the democrats in lockstep support of the state of Israel.

No one can say he wasnt a consequential president. Maybe not good consequences, but definitely consequences.

You Are Here, YOU are the Clown

Our politics feels so empty, evil, and all of us locked out of it completely, so I’ll take that “clown” label and wear it proudly. At least its some vague proof that me and my voice exist at all. Some days I wonder if I’m merely a roadside shrub dreaming that I’m human. Or maybe I’m livestock. Will ponder.

Theres a lesson in here someplace… I think its that if people think you are maybe a right winger, you can get away with any illegal thing you want to.

lol. Dodged a bullet for sure. Its really amazing that people like Coulter do as well as they do in life. We live in bizarro world.

Come on, lets be historically factual here-- No one “sent the jews to the desert”. After WW2 many areas were floated for a potential jewish state. Look at the map here: https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/comments/a67uop/countries_where_jewish_homeland_was_proposed_in/

with the obvious concern that putting a state in a territory thats already inhabitted would be a problem to say the least. But no, the zionists insisted it be created in the already inhabited ancient judean lands (from a country that disappeared more than 2500 years ago), and didnt care that itd mean ethnic cleansing of the owners of the land at the time-- and the idiot british backed their play. Hence the nakba, which never ended, and here we are today, still trying to settle that question that was so ridiculously poorly administrated 80 years ago. The world would be a better place now if that choice had been better handled. This started because of an epic political failure, informed by a recent genocide of the time and the victors of WW2 feeling like they could dictate whatever they wanted to the “vanquished”. This is not just a failure of zionism, it was an epic failure of the allies after WW2 to have any standards or forward looking thinking at all. People dont say this often, but some of that generation were just as much short sighted c*nts as we are today, and not “the greatest generation” …at all. We are still cleaning up that effing mess today with no end in sight.

I think zionists overestimate the degree to which people care about them at all. As long as you dont cause trouble in western society (and you have white skin), no one gives a crap about you unless you are a visible underclass. Why should they?
