There’s no special skill to it. High explosives and the means to put them on target.

Nah I want to distinguish from other inhabitants of the Americas, and I don’t like “statesians”.

Yeah, I meant gas prices as shorthand for the economy in general but you’re right. I’m not so sure about the ICE raids. If the economy was doing well, I don’t think they would have moved the needle, sadly.

I know. I’m saying it wasn’t.

You’re describing what motivates Trump’s base. They are in a cult, but they don’t win elections on their own. Believe it or not (and I don’t like it either), most people just care about their own lives.

I don’t think so. Yes, the US is very racist in a lot of ways, but the reason Harris lost was because the Biden admin failed to do anything to substantially improve anyone’s life, and she didn’t appear credibly different. Biden was elected purely over dissatisfaction with Trump, but that wasn’t enough for a second win. We are in the same place right now. Dems won on dissatisfaction, but they’ll need to deliver results to win again in 2028.

Homie, it was about the economy. I wish USAmericans would give a fuck about anything else, but it was the gas prices.

Chuckles was absolutely a racist. His job was to launder racism back into acceptable mainstream discourse.

Fuck this pedophile pirate trying to stay relevant and respectable. Who the fuck is saying that AI will create more jobs??

Yes, I’m happy to judge a country by its heroes.
- Comment on A Fediverse genre of Guy 1 month ago:
Ah so you also have a cartoon-level understanding of this. Unsurprising. It’s not just Azov though, BTW. Ukrainian national heroes largely comprise Nazi collaborators. Still (resurgently) actively celebrated. It’s even giving the Poles some mixed feelings.
- Comment on A Fediverse genre of Guy 1 month ago:
You seem confused. I don’t think any of that, and I don’t see where I gave any indication that I did. I know that Russia and Ukraine are both full of racists. I’m annoyed by the fact that all these redditors have such a cartoon-level view of this conflict.

Both of these sources are well within the western propaganda sphere, so certain concessions are notable.

What do you think the Azov Nazis were up to in Donbass? Do you think that banning the Russian language (which is many Ukrainians’ first language) in Ukraine is a good idea?
- Comment on A Fediverse genre of Guy 1 month ago:
Is Ukraine also genociding ethnic Russians?
- Comment on A Fediverse genre of Guy 1 month ago:
Genocide of Ukraine? Is every war or invasion a genocide? You are definitely watering down the word.

Always choose the moral choice. History (if not the present) will vindicate you, and you’ll be able to sleep better at night.

It’s always better to stand for something than to “play it safe”.
- Comment on throat game strong tho 1 month ago:
Kraft is an evil billionaire Zionist. We don’t expect anything less from him, though every story about this mentions his name. He used his leverage to bully Macklemore for his moral stance. Sheeran also has power/leverage and could have called Kraft’s bluff by standing in solidarity with Macklemore and the people of Palestine (like every other act has now done). Instead he punked out and both-sidesed a genocide.

I’m not an expert by any means, but I have known some beekeepers. Once I was asked to go help because one of their hives had “swarmed”, meaning a group had left the box with the/a queen and had posted up on a neighbors rose bush.
