Americans, put that second amendment to good use.
just to be clear, "school newspaper" for these broken clock brains applies to middle and high school classes on journalism where they publish their efforts
This is mask-off fascism, which should horrify every US citizen, because it means they think they have already won.
I appreciate you so much for actually linking actionable steps
Not a Democracy
Going to the gulags, but in different words.
Ahhhh freedom (for the rich and powerful)
And if it took you this long to understand this, you're part of the problem.
I agree. I also think it's better late than never. There are always going to be lots of naive people, it's natural. People tend to think things cannot go so wrong, it won't happen here, it won't happen to them... it keeps them functioning. How many of the people seeing the real problems are depressed or have other mental issues? We probably need much more evolution as a species.
I'm assuming you mean "evolution" in the colloquial sense, not the biological one.
It's extremely damning or American liberals that when they get leaked conversations of their leaders callously massacring civilians in a brutal war of aggression, their reaction is to start sqarking about "national security" and "the troops".
Speak in a wavelength conservatives understand and support so that they also hate trump
Careful, folks around here don't take kindly to Democrats trying to flip old school conservatives (see Harris bringing Liz Cheney on stage)... It seems like many people on this site think that her doing that was worse than anything a second Trump administration has and will do.
clearly not worse but it's pandering and conceding to right wing rhetoric (which is also an increasingly problematic issue the Dems have). rather than leaning more right wing to capture republicans (and in turn losing left wing voters) they should lean into left wing populism
Catering to conservatives is what got us to this point.
I didn't say cater
History loves a rhyme. Though this one's got simple whitey meter to it, taken right from their playbook. Just crazy that no one saw it coming, right? Wow.
no one saw it coming
I'm reading Hiding in Plain Sight: The Invention of Donald Trump and the Erosion of America by Sarah Kendzior written during Trumps first term. The book may have been premature because, holy shit, everything Kendzior wrote is exactly what is happening now.
Because those fucking crackers have no imagination other than ways to lie to themselves about their peens, et al.
History loves a rhyme:
Unfortunately in this time, If you're rich, it ain't a crime, Especially if you kiss the ring, Of our newly enthroned king
"Put our troops in danger" while they bomb the shit out of Yemen.
American flag emoji...Freedom...etc.
Bombing an entire apartment building full of civilians to get one guy and his girlfriend. Real heroic shit.
The IDF special.
The US has always been doing war crimes in the middle east. It's just another tally mark on the wall.
Did they post a Musk meme on reddit?
Yep exactly. The US attacks on Yemen are just a continuation of a long American tradition of bombing the shit out of "lesser" nations.
