The same way you don't want people bombing you and your loved ones is the same exact thing that other people feel where they live.
bibi is just descriptively correct and the next dem needs to just sever all ties with israel. defense, trade, all of it. even thinking on utterly cynical grounds: israeli political leadership and overall politics is overtly opposed to the american left-of-center project
Because you people are stenographers for the state department. Propaganda outlets for the wealthy.
This new Lancet study would indicate that the death toll in Gaza is actually around 120,000 at minimum, if the undercount rate is similar since January 2025.
tweet from @cliftonhowze on twitter Last night at the #DataCenters meeting in Claremore, Darren Blanchard, who has attended most of these meetings around NE Oklahoma & has some pretty impressive FOIA/ORA skills, was arrested after going over his 3 min. allotted speaking time. First arrest I've seen at one of these.
in america, if you go over your 3 minute allotment to speak, men with guns come to take you away.
Dog if they canβt defend kids playing sports which should be easily defendable position then I have my doubts about their ability to advance the rights of anyone.
Iβm saying the defense of them is weak. Although I understand at the same time not insubstantial to your life. But there are plenty of trans people even on this platform who would agree with my sentiment.
Look I just disagree. I care about your human rights too. I think theyβre incredibly weak on the issue and many other democratic voters do as well. Take with that what you will.
Giving credit to the modern democrats for something 25 years ago is asinine. We are talking about human rights. Your rights. They should be screamed from the highest echelons of the party and should be enshrined in the party platform. The reality is they are afraid of the issue.
The democrats didnβt do shit. The rights of queer and trans people comes from queer and trans people organizing and demanding their rights. No party is responsible for that. If you were around for the narrative around gay marriage you would know the democrats were allies when it was convenient.
As a βcivil rights enjoyerβ you should understand better than most that no oneβs rights ever came from anyone constantly capitulating to reactionary narratives. There is no needle to thread. You either believe in the full rights of trans people or not.
Yeah but thereβs plenty of trans people and those who care about them who disagree who typically vote democrat. We arenβt entitled to demanding more from our electeds? Like what is this politics youβre engaging with? Just take whatever they give you and shut up about it?
Okay? But we can disagree on that
Theyβre doing the βreal pro Palestine position is voting for the democratsβ but for trans and queer people.
Dog even the one trans member of congress was capitulating to the Republican narrative around trans women in sports. This isnβt a sufficient defense of their rights. If itβs not even coming from her then what the fuck does the leadership care?
Abolish DHS
Yeah theyβre looking for the alternative conservatism youβre offering. You arenβt really establishing any real ideological departure from the Republicans.
The front line.
ice is killing americans and democrats are still voting for trump's nominees
The ADL is an Islamophobic hate group who endangers both Muslim and Jewish Philadelphians. The fact that your party continues to take cues from a far right organization displays the lack of seriousness you have for the issue.
What we are seeing right now with leading Democrats is a defining moment of liberal propaganda. As you try to understand the situation, please read this article I wrote on Democrats, police, and body cameras. campuspress.yale.edu/yjll/volume-...
Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps
Biden didnβt plenty of cozying up to dictators to satiate the rabid Zionists in his own cabinet. Jack Lew, Bret McGurk, Tony Blinkin, Samantha Power, not to even mention Biden himself are all monsters.
Another banger from Jonathan Guyer, who's been on the USAID-Gaza beat for a few years.
If anyone wonders why I really, really hate Joe Biden and his administration? It's because I had to work for them on Gaza. They're evil, evil people who deserve prison.
No but you should criticize the democrats because they are the opposition and not fulfilling that role very well. The house passed ICE funding AFTER Renee Good was murdered. I expect the fascist party to be fascist and expect the opposition to fight.
Youβre preaching to the choir. Itβs incumbent upon the Democratic Party to take elections seriously and not trade their base for a non-existent moderate constituency while ignoring the concerns of irregular and infrequent voters.
The Biden administration at times was equally insane. They trounced all over international law and human rights for 14 months though the genocide of Palestinians. Now democratic voters are up in arms when Trump just uses the permission structures Biden, Obama, and Bush built? Itβs the same shit.
Just go away man.
