Reactionaries can’t resist injecting sexual innuendo, can they?

Giving more weapons and negotiating an end to the war are not mutually exclusive. Biden is Giving Ukraine their best hand possible before the US is likely to duck out.

So let me get this straight, Ukraine will loose even more land of we give them more weapons? Lol okay.

Just in time for FDR Jr to take the helm and… Oh God 😳 I guess I should stockpile TP, masks, and hand sanitizer. Did I forget anything for the next pandemic?

Corporation hired to win an election measures success in how fast they raise and burn money. Great example for how capitalism eschews value for profit AND how it paves the way for fascism by making fascism the path of least resistance.

GitHub definitely would and has in the past. YouTube-dl is on GitHub and gets a pass because it is used by researchers and archivists, both are fair use. forgejo.org would let you be your own fedi-github and might be worth checking out (could be easier than designing a plugin system and additional repos).

We can keep telling ourselves Mark Cuban’s “opportunity economy” was good enough but objectively it was a flop with working class voters. Either it was a messaging failure or it wasn’t populist enough, Bernie is saying it is the latter. If it was a messaging failure, then we’re likely to conclude it is because our media landscape is toxic. Bernie would agree and say that is why we need a populist message to cut through.

NAFTA and Wall Street bailouts come to mind.

In regards to Bernie, his premise is that wealth inequality is the core problem, which means tax the rich until they can’t have an outsized influence on our politics.

The call is coming from inside. Google CEO claims it will be like alien intelligence so we should just trust it to make political decisions for us bro: https://www.computing.co.uk/news/2024/ai/former-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-urges-ai-acceleration-dismisses-climate

History starts when I say it does

When I say unhealthy I am not talking about you individually but the impact on the outcome of the discourse. This particular moment isn’t about proving who was right, though there is plenty of other places where that is needed, it is about integrating what we know so we can coalesce.

If that is not nihilism, then it is unhealthy discourse.

Hey pal, nihilism is a valid response but please find a healthier space for it.

Political parties don’t learn, they respond to power.

That or the many other demoralizing speeches. We did not need to hear Clinton talk about human shields.

You might be on to something in the sense that coming back with a more inclusive response is a better approach. I don’t think that makes them “right” though.

He will do half of what he said he would and say that is proof he was joking.

But you see, they are smart because they have lots of money. /s

Who wants to vote swap with me? I’ll write in Refaat Alareer if someone votes Kamala in a swing state. I’m in California so don’t tell me I’d be wasting my vote.

“It’s just a joke bro, they aren’t even a race” made me chuckle. The best part was doubling down at the end that it’s really America that’s racist. Great satire, even if unintentional.
