If POTUS passed away due to his awful dietary habits, that would make a pretty positive impact

AI images of Trump are almost convincing. Dude uses his hands to express a lot

AI is racist AF

Two things can be true at once. I can celebrate the world being a little safer by losing one exploitative capitalist while acknowledging that violence breeds more violence.

Don't threaten me with a good time, Bradley
comment in response to post
As I have aged, I've actually begun to realize just how arrogant, invalidating, and lazy this type of thinking is. It projects onto others our way of thinking and feeling. It lacks nuance and doesn't hold space for the variety of human experiences. Instead, treat people how they ask to be treated.

To anyone in NYC who saw this happen, no you didn't

All US immigration policy has been, and always will be, racist

There's no such thing as "normal." It's a set of expectations we create in our own minds. Sometimes, we get upset when those expectations aren't met. I'm reality, we live in scary times. Authoritarianism is rampant, the climate as we know it is collapsing. It's only nature to worry

Just do it. Who cares about other people's approval

Couldn't have helped Harris, even if I wanted

I voted for Stein as a Utah resident, since Trump was going to get all utahs electoral college votes anyway
comment in response to post
Talk is cheap, they're action to change policy on international affairs, climate, and economy shows they were unwilling to prevent trump's victory. Or maybe if Garland could have done his effing job, actually held Trump accountable. So many things dems coyote could, but didn't

Both are bad. Patriotism is an ideology, aka a fantasy with no basis in reality, that blinds people from seeing reality. It's the seed from which nationalism grows

Lucky New Zealandians and Aotearoans... I'm so jealous 😤
comment in response to post
It's not a voters place to fall in line or whatever. It's the candidate's job to be appealing enough to win. It is sucks that the DNC failed to take that threat more seriously. Now, we all suffer for it. Sorry, we have to find out this way that Americans never fixed the bigotry so many wanted
comment in response to post
Reality clearly Trump's campaign was more effective than the fake moral superiority the DNC tried. There is no good or bad, better or worse. There is only what actually works in the real world. Trump's strategy worked, Harris's didn't.
comment in response to post
Sounds like you agree that Trump did run a better campaign
comment in response to post
Trump ran a better campaign. He appealed to the worse ideals country. He fed into their xenophobia, racism, and bigotry. Clearly, more people wanted that than Harris. It was her job to meet the moment and offered hope to combat the fear. Instead, she tried courting the right and we all lost
comment in response to post
It's not 2010. The world is different now. Things have to change, such is life. What she did wrong was fail to appeal to enough people to win, hence why she lost
comment in response to post
Or to phrase it in debate bro speak, are the "clueless rebels" in the room with you?
comment in response to post
Uhm, yes! You are. You literally used the phrase "clueless rebels" multiple times about some amorphous entity you think you are combating
comment in response to post
Just as not all jews are Zionists, not all Palestinians are Islamic extremists. Generalizing any population is discrimination.
comment in response to post
America has never been some good, safe, or peaceful place for many. Not for black people, not for native Americans, not for immigrants, not for queer and trans folk. America is also a place created through recism, settler colonialism, genocide and apartheid.
comment in response to post
Don't conflate Jews with Zionists. Many jewish people are amongst those who oppose the genocide, apartheid, and settler colonialism of Zionism. All occupied people have a right to resist occupation under international law. That includes Palestinians
comment in response to post
No, she should have leaned left, offered all Americans suffering from wealth inequality some relief. She should have taken meaningful actions for Americans who don't want complicity in genocide. She didn't and she lost. Greive, direct your feeling to those who are responsible, not me
comment in response to post
Words AND actions need to align. They SAY anything they want, yet they continue to supply weapons and funding to the genocidal apartheid regime. When words and actions don't align, you are dealing with liars and manipulators, aka politicians
comment in response to post
Maybe those who stayed home wouldn't have if they had been offered some kind of hope from the person running to be president. Instead, they were given a worse Trump whose xenophobia and lack of empathy was veiled in niceties. Trump gave racist and bigots some hope in MAGA. He ran a better campaign
comment in response to post
Hundreds of thousands of people spoke out against the policies (or lack of) from her campaign. Protesting the current admins (she is VP) genocide support. Did their voices not matter? She silenced them and ignored them with her "I'm speaking" BS. That is why she lost. She isn't a person who listens
comment in response to post
Algorithms that impact other people are written by flawed individuals with person biases. They are never neutral if they can harm someone for no reason. They can even be used as a smokescreen for bigotry and intended harm
comment in response to post
People pick and choose which "obligations" they agree with. The Biden/Harris admin ignored their "obligations" to the genocide convention. You also have no idea who I am or whether or not my vote could have even made any difference in that botched campaign. So, just keep making assumptions.

Debate bros are triggered now
comment in response to post
Pass. I know a debate-bro when I see one. I can see the pushback you give when your world view is challenged. I know when someone isn't open to new perspectives

US weapons have been found responsible for harming US citizens in palestine.
comment in response to post
How easily you condemn ppl who don't "join your side." Did I scratch a lib? Did some fascism bleed out?
comment in response to post
They literally canceled primaries in multiple key states so that no one else could win. All US presidents who support Israhell were supporting an apartheid, ethno-state that is accused of conducting genocide. In doing so, they violated international law and US leahy law
comment in response to post
You don't, you hold it when they normally happen. If you instead, push onto the party a man with declining mental cognition and genocide supporter, you lose
comment in response to post
Correction: the DNC and the Harris/Walz campaign fumbled so hard. Like, maybe hold a primary, or like listen to the voters 🤷‍♀️

Well, hello there... everyone?!

You sound judgemental AF, try "I" statements. Like, "I wouldn't do that, even if you paid me"
comment in response to post
Sounds noice, although the belief that's something "everyone truly wants" is called a projection

... and some became the "call ICE on them" crowd

This is the same as splitting a paragraph into bullet points. To each their own
