I guess someone just didn't like being called out.

Ok, got it! Thank you for clarifying because it seemed like some people responded directly to the quote.

Woo! I'm not in California and obviously not in your district, but I am wishing you the very best! Democrats refusing to let go of their seats and rigid heirarchies have made a bad situation worse. Like 9 Democrats have died since Trump was elected. Now we have less representation in congress.

Well, I think I found my favorite AOC quote.

Whoever it is must have already blocked me because I can't see the comment. Would someone be able to shoot me a screenshot?

It is indeed relevant. Andor is such an incredible show, and from Rogue One to both seasons of Andor (all since Trump term 1), we've been drawing parallels here. Disney Star Wars is so lucky to have Tony Gilroy around.

The remainder could be the women who leave their infants in a park, mail them to an adoption agency, or leave them in a dumpster. All things that would be considered criminal & actual events. Not all women have the capacity to be nurturing mothers, which is why it should be the woman's choice.

It depends on how you look at it. The vast majority of late-term abortions are a result of a life-threatening pregnancy, such as the woman who was forced to bleed out in a hospital parking lot in the US due to being denied removal of fetal tissue after she miscarried.

They're just super upset about historically oppressed groups being in charge of themselves rather than being subjugated by them. At least in terms of the men, who make up the majority with their simplistic and violent minds that ignore the existence of nuance.

Gotta love how men insist on giving their input about women's bodies, and out of all the sample groups, prosecuting women for their own self-governance is more popular among men. Yes, you know best, men. Even though you have zero point of reference and never will.

Which is sad in many ways. My Dad broke the cycle of racism in my Southern family. He learned that what he'd learned growing up was wrong because he served beside people of color in the Air Force, which caused him to replace disdain with respect.

*cough* Elon, if you want us back *cough* Still no guarantees that we come back, though, considering he cut pediatric cancer research, Social Security, air traffic controllers, the CFPB, & made cuts to USAID that will cause hundreds of thousands of children, even millions, to die. Among other cuts.

One has to be a real, pathetic coward to shoot unarmed protestors unprovoked, too, and according to the footage, that is mostly what went on.

They should be discharged for treason and perjury. They took an oath to protect our Constitution, yet they support arrests and deportations without due process and attack protestors exercising their First Amendment rights.

Yes, and Drop site! Bless Jeremy and Ryan!

If they're trying to protect the border, then they need to do that. Otherwise, they're criminals, and that is exactly why they're wearing masks and not carrying IDs. You're a fucking moron if you think this unlawful, unconstitutional behavior is more important than our laws.

Fuck off, bootlicker.

Nice. Now your insane government has attacked Greta Thunberg and activists trying to bring aid to Gaza. I'm sure it was actually Hamas, even though Israel took the boat.
comment in response to post
Do you want to be a Palestinian right now? Also, stop dodging questions. Do you, or do you not support your government's unwillingness to withdraw from Gaza, allow aid in, and establish a permanent ceasefire? You won't answer because you're an obvious Zionist who is complicit in genocide.
comment in response to post
Israel is a nuclear power and a greater military. Palestinians don't have a military. How is that so hard to understand? Do you think Israeli shouting, "Kill all Arabs," wouldn't have suffered consequences if they'd been Palestinians calling for the elimination of Jews? They'd be shot.
comment in response to post
Israel's instructions were to leave non-Jewish Arabs alone in the Balfour Declaration. They did not do that. Now, Israel's government is breaking international law and committing the war crimes of apartheid, genocide, and the use of starvation as a tool of war. These are indisputable facts.

And absolutely I rage against the catholic church and its mutilation of, then abuse of boys. I am an atheist.
comment in response to post
Actually, you're purposefully ignoring what I said. I said I wouldn't judge all Israelis by that one male. I see more whataboutism in terms of, "Hamas made the IDF put up a blockade and starve children to death." "Hamas made an IDF sniper shoot a boy for throwing rocks at no one." You're a child.
comment in response to post
Given the 1948 nakba, why are you surprised about the radicalization of some Palestinians who were displaced? As my friend said, Israel's ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from the mass of their land, homes & businesses predates Hamas. Hamas is the natural consequence of Zionism & apartheid.
comment in response to post
Also, my family housed a Jewish Israeli man for 3 years. Turns out he was thanking us by flirting with my 12 year old little sisters & commenting on their bodies. Disgusting. I have no prejudice against Israelis because of 1 man, but my experiences with them have been all bad. Should I blame Hamas?
comment in response to post
Probably not. I am from that area, and through the fall, winter, and spring, the Aurora is visible almost nightly. Photographers in the area do have special lenses specifically for shooting the Aurora, which may be what is making them look so vivid in the image.
comment in response to post
My home state and my hometown. ❤️ In the winter and spring, the Aurora is visible almost nightly. It's probably that area's only redeeming quality tbh. Aside from Chena Hot Spring, which is powered by geothermal energy and a great place to view the Aurora.
comment in response to post
That's the same kind of response Black communities laugh at when they hear white people accentuate their "Black friends." It's tokenism. If you support the continued genocide despite Hamas' peace proposals & support the Netanyahu government, you're a bigot. The Israeli government is openly bigoted.
comment in response to post
You refuse to acknowledge the present term & continue to rely on whataboutism exclusively. That means you have a weak argument. Why do you have a weak argument? Because you're defending the indefensible.
comment in response to post
Except Hamas wants a permanent ceasefire & permanent truce contingent on aid flowing into Gaza & the withdrawal of IDF troops. Again, the Israeli government doesn't want that. They could stop it all now, but they won't. Do you support your government in that? If so, you're complicit in genocide.
comment in response to post
I see that nationalist brainwashing and propaganda works really well on you, by the way. That makes you an extremely gullible person. Also, you want to start the Israeli propagandist vs. journalist debate exchange? Because virtually no Israeli can defend its war criminal government anymore.
comment in response to post
Your pathetic sophist responses continue to rely on whataboutism dodge the crux of this issue. Israel is committing war crimes. Hundreds of thousands of Palestinians are dead, most of them women & children. Every time I talk to a genocide denier, they act like a kid lying to get out of trouble?
comment in response to post
Look, I get it. You're a bigot. You think these war crimes are justified. I suggest you work on yourself as a person, lay off the propaganda, & ingest some real news. "But Hamas," or, "It's that bad," doesn't erase Israel's war crimes, and Israel deserves to he held accountable.
comment in response to post
I watched documentaries recently on Palestine before the nakba & after. The IDF used Palestinians as human shields. They called them "mosquitoes" & sent them into tunnels & buildings so they'd be killed if explosives were there. One was an 80-year-old man. He survived. He & his wife for shot for it.
comment in response to post
Why were a doctor's 9 kids bombed? Because he was trying to save lives. He's one of many. Fatima Hassona was killed the day after a French woman released a documentary about her. She was killed for telling her story. Over 200 Palestinian journalists have been targeted & killed. Not coincidences.
comment in response to post
You can't expect them not to fight back. Especially since Israel broke the ceasefire. Also, the human shield BS is propaganda. Plenty of children have been caught on video, shot, not even remotely linked to Hamas & minding their own business. You're defending the indefensible.
comment in response to post
I have 0 respect for a genocide denier blaming all their war crimes on a significantly lesser military power. Hamas isn't making Israel look bad. It's all the live footage of what has been done, which Israel is desperately trying to stop as it murders journalists, doctors & aid workers.
comment in response to post
I have all the love in the world for the 20% of Israeli Jews who want the war to end & sovereignty for Palestine to resolve this longstanding conflict. I have all the love in the world for Jewish Voice for Peace, Bernie Sanders, Jewish students, & other Jews in the US who condemn these war crimes.
comment in response to post
You'd think the Israeli government would take that ceasefire deal to get the hostages back, but it turns out that that is on the bottom of their priority list. Want to look better in all this? Stop excusing war crimes & genocide.
comment in response to post
Fact: Israel broke the ceasefire. Fact: The Israeli government is making itself look bad. They are the ones who are openly promoting ethnic cleansing & committing a genocide streamed in 4K around the world. Fact: Hamas' last proposal was a permanent truce & return of hostages contingent on aid.
