Nice logic there. Is this the same logic you used to campaign for the Democratic party? It's not a secret It didn't work.

I don't know. It's other people, those implying a crime, you should be questioning this.

Nobody said it's a natural cause of death. Why's not likely? The guy wasn't having the time of his live, at all.

I know here is the place where we happily fall for these clickbaits. Sure, a lot of Russians weren't hot about the idea of invading Ukraine, but also everyone dies somehow. Just to be clear, the content of the article doesn't suggest what everyone is suggesting here. Or what? Are people supposed to be immortal as long as they criticize Putin?

I wonder why Jesus used the hair split in the middle. How's that called in English? Is it a symbol of his views of the world compared to the fascist views of his father? Yahve must use the big sweep across.

It's maybe stupid for you, but clearly not for everyone. For example, an AI could create the History of a planet that we do not know it even exists; meanwhile, I won't call stupid those people interested in reading that, but currently I'll read the History of this planet written by humans, if asked. In a nutshell, my point is there is value either way, but poems written by machines? I will leave those to scientists and scholars, at least for now.

It's a community about cats, not eyes. Look at that! It's all eyes!

Americans are weird. Four years ago, Trump lost the election and he was dumped from Twitter in a heartbeat. Enters Musk and buys Twitter, baptizes it as X. Somehow, Musk achieved the unachievable. No, he didn't make Twitter profitable, he makes it even shittier. Trump gets back to X. Presidential elections happen. Trump wins in a landslide. Bluesky arises. Now Democrats have their own social media club and Republicans, conservative minds, stay in X. Really, if the USA won't change their electoral system it could separate into two or three different countries at this point.

Except, for now, they will unite against Mexico, Iran and China.

How do you people propose to call them? Expansionists? Colonialists? Genocidists?

I hope some of them come to the Fediverse. It's nice that only the curious ones will come.

Both of my cats are not assholes. I swear they are not forcing me to write this.

I love history, but that was hardly a lesson. Anyway, thank you, I appreciate the comment.

And this is only to begin with.

This is why he should do it now. It's his ideas the ones founding the party, not him. This is still one right moment, the Democrats are in crisis and the people opposed to Trump feel strayed. Meanwhile, the Republican party is raving on their victory, but we all know Trump will fuck it up as soon as he is in charge the next year, leaving people disenchanted.

If one of those aligns with his political views, maybe. That doesn't mean he will be allowed to steer that particular political party; and I think that's why.

There are worse ways to be conservative. Hollywood likes to portray us as simple machos with moustacho, but we are complex men, to say the least. You should look into our history to understand how conservative we are.

Hidalgo, our father founder abolished slavery in 1810. The first black president of Mexico was an independence hero, Vicente Guerrero, in 1829. Lost half the Mexican territory to a nascent hegemony in the 1840s, but we still hold our ground since then. Benito Juarez and his comrades separated the state from the catholic church in the 1850s. We also have fought for a republican state against monarchies and empires surely more times than I can recall. Got rid of two attempts to establish a local monarchy. The second attempt led to a ~30–year dictatorship which ended with a civil war -the Mexican revolution- won by a democratic armed movement that made us culturally adamant of the idea of reelections in the executive and legislative state branches.

In the past century, a new form of dictatorship found its roots in the government since the 1930s. This system was completely corrupt by the 1960s. Again, workers and students spearheaded movements against this "perfect dictatorship" through violent and nonviolent resistance that led to the "dirty war", which was the state disappearing, killing and convicting dissidents with the help of offices like the CIA, fighting in Mexico against Communism. In 1988, Mexico elected a progressive president, which was denied by an electoral fraud. In 1994, a declaration of war to the Mexican State by the EZLN called Mexicans, but mostly indigenous people, to arms.

Not many people publicly questioned the capacity of women to lead the country ten years ago, but the work to find eligible women in the political scene was only starting. Laws of parity in government existed but weren't fully implemented. In 2018 the so-called progressive president Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO), actively procured parity in the government, even outside the framework of the law. For example, the law didn't say he was required to have parity in his cabinet, but he did. Add to this the remarkable career of Claudia Sheinbaum as a politician and her loyalty to the movement she found. The feminist boom of the MeToo movement probably cemented the idea of a woman president close to AMLO.

Some people consider the current leftist, progressive government and movement the heir of all these fights. That's too recent to judge, in my opinion. But yeah, we fight. It's taken so much blood and lives to found Mexico, we know we aren't big in the world but our people have faced "big" names through its history (Spain, France, Austria, UK, USA, Germany...) and we are still around. A woman leading the country is not weird here. Weirdos are all those fuckers hitting and killing brothers and sisters all over the country. They'll pay, we'll remain.

You just gotta fight back and live your life. Sounds simple, but in my country, we lived through "the perfect dictatorship". We know this shit.

He should found a new party based on his moral and ethical values. First, take over Vermont government, after that let's see. He's the only politician I know whou could pull this one in the American scene. He's already independent and representing much more than Vermont.

Sanders should do the AMLO and found a new party modeled following his ethical views. He will die soon, don't bury his ideas with him.

They should come to Mexico.
