There probably is some truth about asking people to stop criticizing Democrats when it’s so important to elect them. I’ve been a little bit blind to this the past couple of years, but we actually do kind of need that. Criticizing them is causing people to not want to vote for them.

It’s because people literally don’t care if he’s corrupt. They elected him, knowing he’s corrupt.

This should not be legal

Hakeem Jeffries responds to Karoline Leavitt: She wants to lecture us about civility? Get lost. Clean up your own house before you have anything to say to us.

I remember when the president said he was glad that the senior bureaucrat had died.

Foreign Aid is the best thing that my country ever did for the world and now we are dismantling it. I think it deserves more attention.

Bluesky is funny. Years and years of “why won’t you say anything about Gaza” and not much of a peep about the murder of millions from USAID cuts, the biggest genocide ever committed in world history. Double standard or nah?

I think a good question would be how many people have to die in order to change a person‘s mind on a policy.

Double standard

Every day i log into this website and see people saying “the media isn’t doing anything about Trump’s lying!” What can they do? There’s whole databases of the lies on multiple journalists websites and it isn’t changing anyone’s mind!

If more die will that be persuasive on the voters?

Why should the United States policy help spread HIV and AIDS?

The exit plan for Afghanistan was to give the country back to the brutal and rapey oppressors on a silver platter because we don’t care to fight for what is right

I’m just constantly mystified by the eternal optimism of the stock market.

All other obvious questions aside my main question is this: what value is this debasement to the reporter? What does she get out of doing this? You get to choose between making history in a contentious interview or what? What’s the actual benefit of sucking his dick?

The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom. ~ Isaac Asimov

A room full of the most powerful people in politics and media presumed they were being attacked by an active shooter. They dove under tables and texted loved ones. They feared for their lives. And somehow, not a damn thing will be done by them to push for gun reform tomorrow morning. America.

At least my opinion is informed.

Really hoping that reincarnation is not limited to this planet because with all due respect I’ve had enough of whatever the fuck this is.

Steve Kerr spot on as usual

It’s literally a meeting of journalists and people think it’s a conspiracy that journalists would act like journalists in this moment

The way our court system works you can be found to be a rapist and it still doesn’t matter because you can just pay the fine and move on because that’s literally what he did

Come to think of it shouldn’t he have been prosecuted for his sex crimes in a criminal court? Isn’t the fact that he wasn’t a form of proof that we are not exactly a tough on crime country the way we say we are?

This extremely confusing political landscape gives me my own personal philosophical crisis. I’ve spent my adult life trying to make sense of things and have a consistent world view. Interrogating things from multiple angles. And now it just feels like a lot of that work was not even worth it.

One of the things of that Stephen Fry says is that he prefers being effective over being right. That’s his anti-political correctness theme. If he’s right that being politically correct, turns people off to you politically and causes you to lose elections.

This is one of the reasons that I have always said with a very straight face that I don’t really feel like I have a culture. There is no particular food that is associated with my family. No particular music. No particular type of dress.

Where does this fall on the spectrum of enjoying art without respecting the artist

Fingering is outdated. You have to update your firmware. We eat ass now.

Maybe we should just run on making everything worse since that seems to work so much

This is why I’m not voting for Platner. He has infinite Fetterman vibes, and while I could be wrong at least we know Mills won’t turncoat her own beliefs.

Double standard

With so much awful news, here is something to brighten your day:

A protective order is like the judge saying “I will allow you to be attacked a second time by him before we do anything to make you safe.”

In a non police scenario for emergency response will the neighbors have arrest powers? Or will it be where they leave the person on the loose?

Why is everyone losing their minds at Trump passing out all the time? Everyone moment he isn't conscious is a moment he can't rape children

I was sent this document today and it’s going to make me scream

Does any nation elect its diplomats or are they selected by the government?

Remind me whether we won or lost with this kind of politics tho? Did Obama serve two terms? Also wasn’t this Biden’s politics too? I’m all for vengeance but it might not win the election, and winning matters a lot

The thing is, I no longer love this country because of its people and their unacceptable moral choices.

In this particular case he shot her TWICE IN THE CHEST and claimed it was an accident. The victim was not able to be safe from him.

Jesus fucking Christ the global economy is going to be a dumpster fire, and I work in the industry most sensitive to economic downturn

This is dark shit

I support boycotting the United States.

Tariffs should be illegal. And doing illegal tariffs should be even more illegal.

This should be illegal

I agree with this

There is only one *reasonable* answer to this and it’s to strategically grow commerce with poor nations! They will thrive with exports.

We abandoned them just like we abandoned Afghanistan. It’s not moral to abandon people to let them be taken over.

America Permanently stained By Trumpism and Republicans
