Muslim and Arab-American Voters Show Black People How to Exercise Political Power | Black Agenda Report

Jump

  • Again, international relations isn't your made-for-social-media bullshit. Things take time, and he cannot come out swinging against a very strategic ally in a very volatile region of the world. I never said he was powerless, I said he was not solely responsible, and that it takes time to effect change in the sphere of international relations. Continue to live in your fantasy world, you will continue to be disappointed. My only worry is that you are going to help really screw the pooch for the rest of us. Take your head out of your ass.

    What are you going to do in November? You said you're not staying home. Are you going to vote for Biden, vote for Trump, or vote for Trump with more steps?

  • You're acting like Biden is unilaterally responsible for the Israeli government's actions. He's not fucking God, it would behoove everyone to stop pretending he is. Bibi is hell-bent on an apparent Israeli imperative to avenge genocide with genocide. The US cannot stop it. Only Israel can. International relations (thank dog) is not like the flashy whizbang news-friendly soundbite discourse of domestic politics. You need to step lightly. The recent ICJ ruling is a good first step, and will put the US in a better position to oppose the atrocities in Gaza more forcefully.

  • Because not presenting a unified front is how you actually lose. Feeding into the apathy that (if you are to be believed) already exists, is going to help guarantee the worst possible outcome, not instantly transform the political landscape shitshow into your utopia. It's going to be February of the election year and nobody else has emerged, neither DNC nor third party. What the hell are you or anyone else going to do about this that won't simply throw the match and let the fascists win?

  • Refuse to listen to what? What if I agree with what you say? You saying it changes nothing. It is a stupid, strategic misstep where we all lose because all it succeeds in doing is to get people to stay home.

  • Run the candidate, then you can say these things without merely bloviating. I don't see anyone running against Biden who isn't a complete looney tune with zero chance of defeating the very real threat of fascism that again darkens our doorstep. I know it feels good to post the wall of text about how we need an alternative, but absent an alternative, complaining and refusing to participate helps nobody but the fascists.

  • Idiots. Idealism is fine when it doesn't endanger any and all future chances of actual progress. "Not being worried" about Trump makes clear that these people are whiny babies who can't possibly come up with a real solution or demand.

    • Turkey hikes interest rate again to 45% after inflation nears 65%

    Jump

  • I mean, Turkey is no stranger to inflation. When I was there in 2000 before revaluation, it was something like a million old lira = $1.

    • Over 2,200 people victim of sexual abuse by German church staff

    Jump

  • Clergy are in a position of authority over these victims. Religion is a power structure and as they say, "power corrupts." That's all there is to it. It would seem to be that it takes a special kind of person to want to be clergy, and that person is very corruptible. The religious teachings themselves hardly figure into it.

  • Interesting. Reminds me of PC/IX, and it probably similarly doesn't even enter pm, judging from it running also on an 8086.

  • 286 Protected Mode is very different from 386 PM and there is no way Linux will would run on it.

  • You'll probably be severely throttled (I know my local coffee shop does) and if you aren't, you'll be being a huge dick to anyone else on that AP. I strongly advise against it.

  • Get a Beckett Rocket and an RTL-SDR dongle. You can use rtl_433 to decode the chirps from the Rocket and do whatever you want with them. You keep the float, it screws into an unused port on the top of the tank.

  • Good to know I have never given money to anyone on the list. Just don't buy products where the manufacturer is even in a position to pull these kinds of bait-and-switch manoevers, then you won't have to worry about who they are.
