Genocide is not complicated, it is never acceptable.

WTH are you talking about? My top comment is the opposite of that. And Biden arming a genocide has many Democrats light years beyond annoyed.

I swear if liberals put their energy pushing for popular policies instead of policing any criticism of Biden, his positions and polls numbers would flip.

Stop enabling Genocide Joe, because Genocide Joe is how we get Trump again.

Busting ass every day? In 21-22 yes, but not lately.

Talk to marginally engaged voters about Biden, they are either going to make or break him in 2024. And right now, they feel like he is not representing them.

Yes people should vote for Biden over Trump, because Trump is the biggest threat of our lifetime. But instead of policing people online whenever Biden makes shit policy choices, maybe spend that energy pressuring Joe into doing things voters care about.

It's like we all fear Biden is giving up, continuing his on his strategy of alienating voters and liberals want anyone to blame it on besides Biden.

Whether you see it or not, your opinion is carving out a way for legal bigotry when done by a christian. Of course an atheist refusing to serve this asshole bigot would open up the door for a religious discrimination case against the atheist because bigots want nothing more than to divide society. We have no obligation to defend a bigot's rights they are actively taking those same rights away from others.

I read it and liked it as a teen back in the 90s. The book is a fantasy that portrays capitalism as a benevolent force that helps all who follow a few simple habits. Its an interesting look at American history, but are people still recommending it today?

You believe the right wing op ed writers at the times could ever get fired for their opinions? Bari Weiss was making mid 6 figures posting trash on the NYT before she accused her employer of discrimination to jump start coverage of her new substack.

Everyone is biased, it's how the brain operates. Some biases try to reflect reality while others try to manipulate people to believe propaganda. The Times is perfectly fine employing propagandists.

And do what, vote for Republicans? If you really cared about genocide the Democrats are the only party that have a ceasefire now caucus the USA. The squad has been great.

Not any great options next November. I just want others to focus on blaming leaders because Americans get in a bad habit of blaming voters when time and again it's the leaders doing stuff the voters never asked for.

People should vote for Biden over the other guy because the other guy is the worst.

But Biden and his team are fucking morons if they believe funding a genocide won't cost them any votes. Democratic voters aren't in a cult, don't expect 100% of them to fall in line when their president doing extremely unpopular things.

Nah, the only unsubstainable welfare in a liberal democracy is welfare for the donor class.

Misinformation works though. Antivaxer are rentlenless and they are always releasing studies to prove their lies. Combine that with social media algorithms that love controversy and this shit gets deadly.

To put it in perspective, the USA could easily have more people die of covid this year than fentanyl ODs but everyone is acting like the battle is over.

Let's be honest, Biden is old and tired and is letting the admin get controlled by neolibs. Neolibs aren't popular, unless you are a NYT oped writer.

They are all bad, even the "moderate gop" will always go along with the base instead of picking sanity.

What is most? Hard to find a stock company that didn't get super charged by all the covid spending.

Accounting by the ultra wealthy is a lie. Some Deleware LLCs are created to lose money so accountants for the ultra wealthy can eliminate tax burdens. Growth companies don't like to post profits, look at Amazon while it was in it's growth stage.

At this point I think it's more likely for centrists dems to bail out the GOP for zero concessions than any republican to come to their senses.

GOP is a cult, you can't just up and leave a cult.

That and have some ghost writer push out her auto biography and it mysteriously becomes a NYT best seller because a few firms placed 100k pre orders.

Coalition governments are totally different than a two party system in the USA. There are over a dozen parties with in Israel, Netenyahu needed to form a coalition with ultra-nationalist to win. Each of these parties have to be kept happy else the coalition falls apart.

Harris probably thinks of herself as the loyal government servant who has always done what is asked of her. The problem is, much of what America does is unpopular with public and people want to find politicians to blame everything on.

I would bet her poll numbers would flip if she spent her VP career pissing off rightwing donors and going left of Biden on popular issues.

Out of all the people that know 100% Baldwin is guilty of manslaughter, how many would flip their opinion in an instant if Trump killed someone while filming a pro gun campaign ad?
