  • Sure. I dislike her, but she's been vocally anti-interventionist for many years. She hitched her wagon to someone who doesn't actually care about any of it.

  • Anyone in this administration who has any values whatsoever is destined to fail, because the leader they're so obsequious to has none.

  • It's really not that complicated. Trump is a bully and loves piling on to prove he's the alpha male. But he's also a coward (like many bullies) and is afraid to wade into something that will spiral out of control. So he's trying to subjugate the government of Iran using threats so he can get the satisfaction of the former without the risk of the latter.

  • "Not since Truman..."

    So Huckabee wants to nuke Iran?

    Also, tell me this is not a letter that would be written to Kim Jong Un if the names were swapped.

  • In [Trump's] view, Iran was “very close” to having a nuclear bomb.

    Those are clearly Netanyahu's words in his mouth. Netanyahu has been loudly and confidently saying that at regular intervals since 2012. Iran is always weeks away.

  • You mean ceded. Seceded is what the West Coast should do.

  • It's interesting that you post a message like that when yours is the majority position on Lemmy and comes up regularly. Any time I post conflicting data on the election, I'm down voted at about a 40/60 ratio up/down. Meanwhile politically I'm somewhere between Lenin and Bernie.

  • War in the Middle East is a Republican rite of passage. It's part of their heritage.

  • Did you forget about 2021-2023?

  • This is SO much worse than I thought it would be! By people who don't value nature or public good and would happily sell off the most unique part of America: its national parks.

  • Yep, there it is: "it isn't my fight." News flash: if the US falls, you guys will be next. Stop trying to shame others for things you're not (and wouldn't be) willing to do yourself.

  • You can always cross the border and satisfy your bloodlust, but we both know you'll say "it isn't my fight" and not do shit. Just go back to feeling morally superior from the comfort of your home.

  • Netanyahu was worried the US would achieve a deal with Iran and struck first.

    A handful of lawmakers did oppose the Israeli strikes, however. Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) argued that Tel Aviv’s war interfered with Trump’s effort to strike a new nuclear deal with Iran. “Netanyahu wasn’t trying to help diplomacy; he was trying to destroy diplomacy. How do we know? They reportedly targeted and killed Iran’s chief negotiator with Trump,” he wrote.

  • He says "we" all the time to refer to himself.

  • But luckily they'll be replacing fiber with something much worse

  • Bitcoin mining outpaces that easily. If you trade in Bitcoin, you're supporting enormous damage to the environment.

    Just included for scale. Both are terrible.

  • These fucking idiots. These absolute morons.

    How many times is it now that they've gotten rid of something they don't bother to understand, only to backtrack?

  • If the protestors were peacefully marching with firearms, the police wouldn't even have shown up.

  • Are you serious? Most Americans are scared of losing their jobs and being unable to provide for their families, including caregivers for elderly parents. Many are only a few missed payments away from having their vehicles repossessed or being evicted and becoming homeless. Some have ongoing health conditions that require insurance.

    If you have nothing to lose or you have a safety net and can stop going to work, great, good job. Most people aren't in your position.
