Not even that...

Look at the right wingers who tried to kill trump already, it's not easy because media just fucking dropped it.

There's a lot going on here, but there's no way in hell it's going to be released. With this admin, I wouldn't be surprised if they're straight up destroying records if they don't like what it says.

There won't even be a report years from now to disclose, they just won't retain any information on it and claim incompetence or a computer glitch if anyone ever looks into all these rightwing terror attacks.

6/29/01

Exactly on the day. Which makes me nervous about a few weeks from now...

Firefighters plan to torch Butler's former home and the neo-Nazi sect's former church July 15.

The IDF will never be held responsible for their actions the Israeli government that ordered them should be

You see zero irony and n that comment?

Like, Israel spent decades going after anyone tangentially connected to the Holocaust...

It was just a couple years ago they prosecuted someone in their 90s who was forced to be a teenage secretary for a nazi.

And you're legitimately implying:

The soldiers committing genocide were just following orders. We can't judge them for what they're actively doing , which is committing a genocide

For those wondering "why":

HAYDEN, Idaho -- Firefighters burned some of the remaining buildings on the former Aryan Nations compound during training exercises this week.

That was 24 years ago to the day....

Seems like it's too big of a coincidence, and since it's rightwing we'll probably officially never know with this admin.

Hell, Bernie endorsed him months ago

Being Jewish doesn't mean you're automatically pro-genocide...

Which if you told someone 70 years ago it would need to be said, they'd think you were crazy.

I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to say, just that it's not relevant

And… there it is. That statement betrays exactly what you think of progressives and socialists.

Buddy...

I make Vladimir Illynitch Lenin look like Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Someone pointing out the main failing of revolutions is no one plans for after the revolution, in no way means I don't have a pitchfork.

You aren’t the centrist you think you are,

Just fucking wild...

The answer has always been to lean into it, not fight it.

It's like jumping off a bridge cuz someone called you a nerd, even tho the bridge isn't over water.

Can't take the bait.

If you want actual advice just put your stuff out there.

Dont apologize for it or make excuses that you're new.

Just put it out there and see if people like it

That being said, try not to do it a lot or in super general communities because some people may consider it spammy.

Well, you’d think the DNC chair would be involved in discussions of strategy, but WTH do I know?

That's not what the DNC is supposed to do...

For decades they have been. But voters have roundly rejected that, and the DNC voting members listened and went with Martin.

Literally because he would be unbiased.

And now people are complaining that he's unbiased instead of biased in the opposite way?

Have you never read any political history?

Do you not already know what happens when after a regime change the new one decides to do all the fucked up shit the last one did, but to the opposite group of people?

I'm sorry man. You post some funny memes sometimes, but if you really don't get this, you eat up too much of my time.

Quick edit:

Just saw the double reply, sorry bud

What does Cuomo have to do with the DNC?

picking a longtime insider from a purple state

What?

He lead Minnesota's state party for a decade and took it from purple to literally one of our most progressive states and a blue stronghold.

I didn't click your link, but I hovered and know why you hid it now.

Semafor:

A neoliberal billionaire's personal project to use AI to tailor "news" to individuals based on their viewing habits to more successfully influence readers...

I've been ringing alarm bells about that site for years, I'm going to take people being less transparent with using it as a sign it's reputation is catching up to it.

Like, you really expect this company:

To not shit on Martin because they wanted a neoliberals?

Stop voting to confirm Trump’s nominations might be a start.

I agree that's a valid criticism of individual Dems. And I agree they should stop.

But what the absolute fuck does that have to do with the DNC?

Ben Wilker getting snubbed just meant they were content with no change.

Then why did they do a 180 on the Victory Fund and start the largest consistent investment in state parties, ever?

Like, shit has changed...

I mean, most posts like this aren't real to begin with if we're talking about suspicions.

But they do get engagement so it's worth popping in with general advice some people do need to hear.

The Democratic likely presidential

I wish him all the success Cuomo just had...

Burn a shit ton of billionaire money, show everyone we can just stop listening to 80 year old's endorsements, and accomplish absolutely nothing but solidifying the resolve of the progressive movement within the Dem party.

while the Dems are scrambling to figure out how to keep the base content

What?

The DNC pivoted hard left with Martin, and did a complete 180 on the victory fund

They know exactly what they need to be doing, and they're doing it...

I don't know what exactly people expect

Last names weren't really a thing until very recently in human history.

That's why a lot of last names are places or jobs.

You were Chris the Farmer, or Chris from Cleveland. And when your king wanted a last name to tax you more accurately, you likely didn't give a fuck and just said whatever.

But the thing is people would say names/jobs in different languages.

An immigrant from Germany who spoke mostly German would say "My name is John Deutsch". if they were fluent in English they may say "My name is John German".

Same guy. Describing himself the same way, just in two different languages.

Fo Colombus specifically, that's not even his name in his native language. It was Columbo, which meant Dove and given mostly to orphans, but at least his dad had the same name. Whenever last names became standard, Columbus's oldest living direct ancestor was an orphan

So like, it's not asking why just the places named after him are different, it's why he had different names.

And the answer is people just really didn't care that much about names until very recently.

Lately there have been some running jokes about how we’re basically a throuple already, and those jokes have been getting a little more… not-jokey.

Those jokes are almost never jokes...

If the other people were the ones starting the jokes, that's called "testing the waters" and you might be in more of a trouble than you realize already.

Like, I get that guys don't learn that as early as women, but most people figure it out

“This was shocking,” Jennifer E. Smith, a biologist at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and the study’s lead author, said in a press release. “Squirrels are one of the most familiar animals to people. Yet here’s this never-before-encountered behavior that sheds light on how much we still have to learn.”

What?

Squirrels eat mice all the fucking time...

They compete for the same food source, but they're drastically different sizes, it's like if a silverback fought a chimpanzee. And after the fight the squirrel doesn't waste the free meal.

Good.

Silwa, Adams, and Cuomo will split the vote of all the idiots.

Two neoliberals having to run as independents in a general because they can no longer win a Dem primary is a good thing.

They're no longer to buy their way thru the primary.
