The problem is that the war was something that any American imperialist with a brain would want to avoid. This war was the dumbest in American history, doing more to destroy American soft power than any past geopolitical blunder. Democrats might saber rattle and try to fuck over Iran in any way they could; they might even try to install the shaw or something using the CIA. However, ever liberal president has recognized just how easy it is for Iran to shut down the strait, and how costly it’d be to actually stop them.

The only reason Trump went along with Israel is that he doesn’t care about American imperial interests. All he wanted was a win that would make him look strong, and he thought Iran was a reliable punching bag. He was riding high off of his success with Venezuela and believed Netanyahu when he said it would be easy. Democrats might be in Israel’s pocket, but they aren’t ego driven enough to fall for that; only Trump would be.

I think about a lot of physical traits I find hot in women, but unless I’m prompted, I just don’t consider genitals. It’s not like I’d see them until we’re already dtf

You can’t be serious

One bankrolls the genocide, lets nationalistic goons squash dissent in their own country, and gives pathetic platitudes while hoping the domestic outrage goes away. The other is just more mask off about how much they love killing Muslims. It doesn’t matter if Trump builds a casino or the settlers build their own resort; the land is still taken and the people are still gone. His whole involvement in settling Gaza probably did less to normalize it than what the Democrats were doing. If American Hitler says the quiet part out loud, can other countries really stand by so easily?

You can definitely say that Trump is worse on so many issues, but he hasn’t done much more than the Democrats to help Israel with Gaza. The only thing he did that Democrats wouldn’t do is attack Iran, and that will probably come back to bite Israel in the long run, just like everything else they’ve done to influence other countries. Get ready for a wave of nasty antisemitism in the future, brought to you by the politicians who listened to AIPAC more than their own constituents. I feel so bad for the Jewish diaspora who will get scapegoated thanks to liberal spinelessness

so my tits are gonna get even bigger? 🥹

They’re so sexually repressed they take it out on everybody else. If they were allowed to be kinky without shame, we wouldn’t be here

I honestly don’t wonder, even if I’m interested in somebody. Am I weird?

It makes perfect sense. Trump is a bully who will stab any ally in the back and doesn’t get into fights he thinks he might lose.

Both of these statements are true, and ultimately it’ll be people who pay the price for imperial arrogance.

can you not scale yourselves relative to other players?

I wish

Then…

Maybe not the dealers you know about

I’m so happy that you’re finally in the tiddy club! I second the seatbelt thing and recommend wearing a bra on longer car rides. If they get big enough, you start to feel their weight no matter which way you lie down. It’s not so bad though. The soreness is transitory.

Also, I miss your interesting stuff on Lemmy. I’m always happy to see you when you do show up!

What if that is me?

Probably the same way they would get other non prescription/illegal drugs :3

And all the people that die every year trying to cross the Mediterranean is sane? The massacre at El Tarajal beach in 2014 is an isolated incident that doesn’t represent a larger problem with how Europe treats African Immigrants? The UK leaving the European Union, largely on worries about immigration, doesn’t represent a homebrewed fascist threat from across the pond?

So many voters think harsher immigration control is something we should all just get on board with. We should just throw those people to the wolves and appease the reactionaries. If you collaborate with them on this, surely they won’t still claim that you’re letting migrants stream into your country, right?

Immigration has been a defining issue in far right movements gaining power across Europe, and liberals ceeding the narrative is a powerful tool in their moment’s arsenal. First they come for the immigrants, and you do not speak out for you were not an immigrant. Demand France and Britain and all the empires that fucked over Africa to right their past wrongs, or hold your tongue.

As a person with their head squarely on the chopping block for my ethnicity, gender, and political views, it insults me that you think I’m sane washing America. It disgusts me that you somehow think European politics aren’t at risk of heading the same direction as our own. It’s pathetic that you refuse to consider how common and popular assumptions might be fundamentally flawed.

More so than the actual Nazis in my country, it’s your counterparts who make me most hopeless for our future.
