  • "I mean, sure Israel is murdering thousands of children, expelling people from their homes, bombing a sovereign nation unprovoked, and Israel is bulldozing homes to make way for new settlements. But other nations do bad stuff too so this is obviously antisemitic"

    What's antisemitic is conflating the actions of Israel with Jewish people. Jews aren't inherently fascist and fascist Jews aren't all Jews.

    This is also fucking disgusting as antisemitism is a real thing. Trying to conflate it with Israel critique makes people take antisemitism less seriously which is also dangerous.

  • They can't even stick to their own rhetoric. Dem commentators calling Trump Hitler and then going out golfing with him is everything wrong with the party and media.

    I fear 2028 is going to be Dems deciding that they were just too "woke" and running Liz Cheney for president.

  • Well, I'll just add that even if this is true it will sway nobody.

    Trump is a rapist caught on tape bragging about how easy it is to assault women. Very few Trump supporters are unaware of this fact and yet that are still Trump supporters.

    That he's assaulted women simply isn't newsworthy for his fascist followers. He's hurting the right people and that's all that matters to them.

    Sadly, about the only thing he could do to lose support would be to insult his followers or the USA. They'll forgive him for pretty much anything else, including rape and murder.

  • What actually raises the price of milk is the farmer uses his profits to buy up other local dairy farms consolidating their position in the market. They then sign exclusivity deals with both grocers and further milk processors (who are also consolidating) to prevent competing in the market, driving their competitors to either sell for cheap or go out of business. https://theconversation.com/americas-dairy-farms-are-disappearing-down-95-since-the-1970s-milk-price-rules-are-one-reason-why-237439#:~:text=Across%20the%20country%2C%20the%20dairy,per%20farm%20%E2%80%93%20has%20been%20rising.

    Because "farm Inc" has a massive horde of wealth, they can stamp out competition by either buying them out, cutting them out, or driving them out of business with prices a small farmer can't handle. After that, they get to set and raise prices at will with the now smaller pool of big name "farm Inc".

    This literally happens every time a market is poorly regulated and businesses allowed to grow too big. It's the natural end state of capitalism.

  • Yup, they deliberately ran it into the ground. They took out loans against Kmart to buy Sears and sold Sears and Kmart properties off to give themselves money via stock buybacks.

    And what's worse, because it worked, you can see similar actions happening to other major retail outlets. Target, in particular, seems to be following directly in the footsteps of Kmart.

  • It's racist.

    They are literally only doing this because it's protests for Palestinians. When you put negative attributes on an entire group of people based solely on their race, we call that racism.

    These CNN bigots are every bit as bad as the lynch mobs killing black people because a white woman said they raped her.
