  • I don’t give a shit about Putin. I don’t care about a capitalist nation attacking another capitalist nation over oil and one of them getting supported by the US because the mic needs forever war to continue existing.

    But either both Ukraine and Russia are commiting genocide, or neither is. And the reality is neither is. We know what genocide looks like. Nothing even close to what’s happening in Gaza has ever happened in Russia or Ukraine… it’s not comparable using the same word.






  • …yet he did send aid without congressional approval, unilaterally. Please pay attention to politics if you’re going to have such strong opinions.

    As far as the thing I deflected I do not give a fuck about Ukraine period. It is a proxy war between the US and Russia, like Afghanistan was in the 1980s. We shouldn’t be arming them, because it will just end in Ukrainian born terrorists attacking the US in 20 years.

    It is also not on the same scale, to the point it is not worth mentioning. More Palestinians have gone missing than Ukrainians have died.



  • The thing you people don’t understand is, for people that understand genocide, understand electoralism US dead at the moment we do it.

    Trump doesn’t enter into the equation. He’s not a Boogeyman you can wave.

    Genocide always expands. Jews weren’t Germany’s first or primary target. They weren’t even in the top five.

    Biden made genocide the official position of the modern United States, meaning the US was going to target women, lgbtq, minorities besides Palestinians no matter who was in office.

    No matter how you people bitch and moan about how awful it is that you’re now higher on the list of victims than you were before, it doesn’t change the fact you started this genocide domestically. It will be known in history as Biden’s genocide even as Trump continues it.

    Median monthly income in China according to most sources I can find is just 1300-1400 USD. Still, 82 USD for that income is not expensive, and that’s for higher end private medical care outside the main healthcare system.

    It’d be like an American paying for medical care with a weeks groceries.




  • Three of the accomplishments in that selection were struck down before going into effect, the antitrust doj actions are nice and all, but don’t actually fix anything or defend the working class – mainly because the effect the admin desired, price reduction and wage increases, didn’t happen. Inflation corrected wages are lower now than in 2020, and food prices never stabilized.
