i do not contest any of that, and still, europe cannot defend itself against him. the only reason ukraine has been able to hold their own is whith massive and regular shipments of us weaponry. something europe has never stockpiled, nor developed the means of fabricating, in enough quantity to make even a token defense against the russian war machine. these are fact.

not worth the paper it was printed on. without the ability to enforce an agreement, to make one with those who've already proven themselves not beholden to any, is simply foolish, no matter what the promise.

If it's connecting to the corporate LAN, it's our computer, comrade

took some big brains, dedicated in the pursuit or pure science

i'm sorry this is gonna happen to you, must be terrifying

the same cannot be said for vladimir putin

I'm with Zellensky, the "interesting" thing will turn out to be, whether or not Mr. "no foreign wars" is going to put US boots on the ground in Ukraine to back it's complete surrender to Russia, and if Europe will start marching troops into Ukraine wearing "were not NATO" tshirts. And while the cartoon is funny, what's not funny is Canada spends 1.38% of it's GDP on defense, Europe on average spends ~ 2%, they've both enjoyed the post war defensive umbrella that the united states has provided and for the last 70 years, even after war reconstruction, they've decided to spend their GDP on yearly 5 week holidays for their workers, and "free" healthcare for their citizens. though a few european states are nuclear armed, in a ground fight, Europe and Canada could not pose a deterrent through production of arms, or standing armies of soldiers, in 10 years if they started yesterday.

you didn't know, then the mask came off and she and machin doomed the whole world

As per the New York City charter, New York State Governor Hochul can remove the Mayor of New York City at any time she chooses. God only knows after he accepted the corrupt Quid Pro Quo with the DOJ why she hasn't yet. Last asked she said : "I have to think about it". As Democrats and Americans we're still nowhere. We haven't even gotten up off the mat yet, while it all continue to burn.

at first i was again it, but there's no action on mastodn, it's a very slow closed system, and quote toots might open it up

Now Senator Gallego from The Great State of Arizona

here's the funny thing we can laugh about in the rubble searching for safe food and water, they won't admit ever doing it

downvote it, moderate it, do whatever you like, politics doesn't exist in a vaccum, every action has an opposite reaction. now, ukraine, as good as gone, trump is backing whatever putin wants, gaza going to be turned into trump casinos, hundreds of thoursands of real live human beings deprived of life saving safe food, clean water, and medications because usaid simply shuttered, the world economy about to suffer the worst depression since the 1920's due to trumps reciprocal tarrifs, death and suffering on a scale no one has ever seen before.

elections matter, there was a binary choice between the coninuation of democracy under kamala harris and fascist dissasembly under donald trump, and democratic youth didn't show up, and the lemmy crowd still, even now, won't admit why that might have been the case

I don't use my phone to browse if I'm in the office or the house, I use my PC web browser, logging into loos (oh man i wish i could put those two accent marks over o's), and i'm just met with my own upload page as the splash page, no place to see "trending" or "new" no way to browse creators, just a whole lotta nuthin, and so it much like fredo is dead to me and will remain that way

this was a whole lot funnier before january 20th

Once the Executive Branch feels as if they can be held in Contempt by the Judicial Branch and continue to act for the nation, all bets are off, and we are no longer functioning as a Constitutional Democracy. There's no law that matters, as it's no long bound by anyone able to enforce it. The very position of President no longer carries any meaning, neither does that of Congress, or The Supreme Court. When one side of the Triangle breaks, it all falls.

republicans are in the process of dismantling the entire democratic system of checks and balances. don't ever let anyone tell you both sides are the same.

bullshit. republicans are burning it all down. fuck this.
