“the problem is that people don’t fully support the Democrats unconditionally. Not that the Democrats only run on being ‘Republican Lite’ and Republican voters wont support the Lite option when full calorie is on the menu”

The entire point of the Biden and Biden/Harris campaign was to make Trump term 1 bipartisan. “No, if you hate immigrants, you should vote for me. Because Democrats fill out the paperwork properly and like bureaucracy, so ICE will work more efficiently and the Wall will be built better, faster and cheaper” - Both Biden and Harris campaigns

Lets just say, they protested and did direct action. Which is more meaningful and has a greater positive effect than some kayfabe like voting.

This has really been the obvious problem with the Democrats and their voice-pieces. “We just need a liberal Joe Rogan” or “We just need to get as good at messaging as Mamdani”. All of the Democratic consultants and proponents think that what you believe or stand for doesn’t matter, as long as you focus group the exact phrasing or pitch right or find a more convincing mouthpiece.

Maybe the problem is that the Democrats believe in nothing, will fight for nothing, nor want to accomplish anything. They just think that they can be vacuous empty suites and as long as they can accurately focus group their phrasing they will be able to win. And actually having beliefs and principles hurt you, because maybe not 100% of people would agree with them.

She’s literally a genocide supporter. “Hitler was mildly imperfect, at least he wasn’t as bad as Himmler”

Thank God. The only way a Republican could actually win in a normal election has been averted.

For example, many say this about the Israeli/Arab conflict. However, this conflict is thousands of years old. The Israelis solidly lost a war to keep their land in the BC era

This is incredibly historically illiterate on multiple fronts. The Israeli/Palestine conflict only dates back to 1948, with precursors in 1930s. First, Israel wasn’t lost to “Arabs” in “the BC”. The Babylonians were not Arab and the exile of Jews in the 6th century BC were cultural elites and not the broader population. It was part of an attempt to assimilate Judah into the broader Babylon empire. That was defeated by the Persian empire and Judeans were allowed to return to Judea (now Southern Israel). The traditional idea of the beginning of the Diaspora was the destruction of the second temple in 70 AD and the violent expulsion of parts of Jerusalem by the Romans. Though the vast majority of the real diaspora was from immigrants to major Roman cities predating the destruction of the Second Temple and not Jerusalem exiles.

The majority of people that were living in what is now considered Israel were not Arab invaders, but the native peoples that have always lived there that, after the Arab conquest of the 8th century, started to speak Arabic and convert to Islam. The difference between a Mizrahi Jew and a Palestinian is most likely whether one of their ancestors converted to Islam in the last 13 centuries.

Not that Iron Age Philistines, Samaritans, Canaanites, etc. were secret proto-muslims secretly waiting for the Romans to purge Jews so that two millennia later “real Arabs” could occupy the “promised land”.

I don’t speak Japanese, but it is a combination of slang and lack of formal addresses, conjugations, or cases. Like Romance languages having formal and informal versions of “you” and using terms like monsieur.

Red Son was just a confession!

They should have been Rage For The Machine!

I am literally friends with a woman that decided when she lived in Japan that the more lower classl/colloquial form of Japanese was easier and only spoke that. So there is a white, Ph. D., upper class woman that speaks fluent Japanese, but only like a Yakuza.

Wow, I am finally glad that the worst people in the world telling you not to support them, even if some of those evil assholes are Democrats, has stopped working.

We need cops to keep us safe!

Open the pod bay doors Grok!

I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that until you denounce the ANC.
