I’m not saying that as a good thing.

This is not a controlled burn.

This is a five-alarm wildfire.

I’m wondering if that’s more for legal reasons than for technical ones. Then again, I’m not a lawyer, and you could probably get around it by directly using the AT Protocol.

Like him or not, one thing is very clear: Trump has basically redefined the political metagame.

Good satire is built on facts.

I mean, it is somewhere between extremely difficult and nigh-impossible to build a standards-compliant web browser. And when Chromium is right fucking there, I can see how it’s tempting to take it, reskin it, add your own little seasoning, and send it out as your own

re. Double posting, I think that was Jerboa being fucky when I posted my reply

heckin internet making me look silly

My issue wasn’t with calling Trump a Nazi (I find that assessment correct), but calling them both Nazis. Yes, the rightward shift is concerning, but the false equivalence put up here understates Trump’s danger and heavily overstates Harris’s.

God, I despise the watering down of the term “nazi”.

I feel like if anyone attempted to bomb an American TSMC plant, there would be far larger problems on the docket to come.

Not sure, but you could probably get barrels of soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce for cheap.

The point of a “false prophet” is that they claim to speak for/act in the name of God for their own (evil) ends. False prophets are the highest tier of grifter in a religious context.

Forcing people to fight over invisible line on a map and pushing them into a meat grinder is evil.

I’m glad you’re opposed to the 2014 annexation of Crimea and the current invasion, very nice! Russia really should stop sending wave after wave of soldiers into the meat grinder just so they can seize more Ukrainian territory.

They are totally ok with profiting out of people misery and misfortunes, just look how much money they are making out of the war industry these days. They simply are scum, look around yourself they do corporations interests not people.

That is not an answer to my question.

Al capone did plenty of charity…

Cool, also irrelevant.

They are sending billions of dollars in weapons to an authoritarian and corrupted government who passed martial law and forbids any man between 18-60 to leave the country, who’s also seeking to forcibly repatriate these who fled the country and are eligible for conscription.

They past martial law because they are fighting for their sovereignty, my guy. If the US had an invader beating down its doorstep and they had already taken California, I feel like switching to wartime government is justifiable. A draft is unfortunate, but when the alternative is to fold in the face of Russian aggression? That’s no choice at all.

They are doing this while backing a genocide in israel, selling weapons to dictatorships such as saudi arabia and doing business with countries like china who are directly supplying russia in this war.

See previous. Yes, the US makes a lot of bad decisions. Supplying Ukraine is not one of them.

They don’t give a shit about you and me or common people, rulers do not fight their wars they send others to die for their slimy interests. That’s not a good thing.

So it is categorically impossible for leaders of nations to care about the people in the nations they administer? This comes off as incredibly cynical.

I get it, the interests of the US government are very frequently wrong and harmful to the world.

But even a broken clock is right twice a day. And assisting Ukraine in defending itself against an invasion is, unequivocally, a good thing.
