Since russia took over the government, we the population of the US are the foreign adversaries. And boy howdy are we being treated like it.

Worth noting that he opposed russia's invasion to begin with, and then eventually fell victim to russian influence operations. Yet another death attributable to same weapons of russian disinformation that installed their regime in washington.

Social media companies allow russia to daily deploy some of it's most effective weapons - it's high time we sanctioned meta and twitter as partners of the russian military.

Nope, the latter was correct.

CuntGPT, is that you?

I feel that spreading lies, even to make fun of them, is ultimately counter-productive. I know others disagree though.

I was really hoping they'd keep him, rather than replacing him with the next most sycophantic rich boy in line.

We all know they tolerate rank incompetence and have no care for the lives of americans. Keeping hegseth would be saying that much louder, so now it's someone else's turn to endanger our lives.

Her phone wasn't in the bag from any reporting I've seen. But she could easily be lying about that.

If it was a targeted intelligence action, all they got was her (now cancelled) DHS access badge. Russia already has front door access to the white house and probably everything doge has touched. China can just ask Russia if musk hasn't filled them in yet.

I think it's much more likely that she's just a clueless rich moron who got her bag stolen.

A global government would prevent this from ever happening.

A few elites have the power to inflict violence on everyone else and get away with it - aka the state's monopoly on the legitimate use of violence. This allows them to enforce injustice like unlivable wages but also to starve, jail and kill anyone who is serious about taking aware their power.

Setting up a global union would drastically curtail the power of elites, and they would prevent it. You would have to defeat the world's elite, and in that case a universal wage is small potatoes.

Yeah I couldn't stand it, and came to the comments because I was sure it would already be mentioned.

I stuck through season 1, pretending that the character's arcs were believable and fast forwarding through some of the brutality, then gave up.

A friend convinced me to try again, but the seconds time I gave up after the season with the shots of the pool debris at the start. The payoff on that felt cheap and vaguely a violation of chekovs gun. After that I had to tell the friend who wanted me to watch it that I was done and wouldn't be trying again.

He just opposed a plan to put money behind progressive candidates.

Progressive candidates in safe seats would allow them a platform to spread progressive messaging, showing americans that the Dems can offer a platform to get excited about, without sacrificing their ability to tack right in specific electorates where that's tactically sound.

There are seats where the realistic choice is a fascist or a conservative dem. Focusing funds to those battles ensures the democratic party stays conservative, fails to offer a meaningful alternative, and fails to avert fascism.

We've tried nothing and we're fresh out of ideas, he says while defunding new ideas.

This account is a violent transphobic troll.

They post transphobic comments and calls for violence then whine about being banned from trans-friendly communities because they "just want some reasonable freedom to say what I want"
