I’m interested to see the replies.

We have one side that says Palestinians are victims and have never done anything wrong.

And one side that says Israel is righteous and has never done anything wrong.

And both: if you don’t agree with me, you’re an ignorant naive complicit fool.

And on it goes.

You’re so deep into your own issue (with which I don’t disagree, btw), you don’t see that embracing it would have cost more votes than it gained.

Electoral victories are made with coalitions, not absolutists.

And even worse, of the two people likely to win, you chose the worse for yourself 🤷‍♂️

If you could please explain what is inaccurate about my observation I’d love to hear it.

I’m looking at the election results in MI and the continued statements from single issue pro Palestinians.

Israel is committing war crimes.

Leftists are worse than Libertarians, little children who imagine that their personal world view carries the day and ignore, and are ignorant of, reality.

This is really funny as it exposes your ignorance.

Only a small part of Build Back Better was about infrastructure.

Nice try tho ignoramus.

Clearly you did not read Build Back Better as it was only partly to do with construction and a lot to do with energy, manufacturing, social policy…

You just like to complain.

“They couldn’t get it done” 🙄

WE couldn’t get it done.

You blame the entire party for Manchin and Sinema.

Even now what’s happening isn’t because of Dems, it’s because of Rs, who, you may have noticed, have the majority.

MAHA Commission report paints a dark picture of U.S. children's health The Health Secretary's report blames environmental toxins, ultraprocessed foods and more for the poor state of kids' health in the U.S.

I might believe the concern about environmental toxins more if they weren’t terminating EPA research grants, proposing to roll back the Mercury and Air Toxics rule, promoting coal and killing renewables, etc.

Watch what they do, not what they say.

Did you read Build Back Better?

Kamala’s platform.

Please stop with the “Dems always move right” trope.

I know, it hurts.

With you ❤️

Ah. I misunderstood. Thanks for clarifying.

Seems like it’s always been the same — elected in 30’s, serve until death — but now people are living 10-20 more years.

Seeing as how the House, Senate, and Presidency have all swung back and forth over the last 40 years… no the same majority has not been in charge.

Bush crash Clinton recovery.

W crash Obama recovery.

Trump crash Biden recovery.

Trump II crash… Dem ‘28 recovery.

Love the big picture broadly applicable perspective 👍

The number one cause of death is… birth.

We’re all gonna go. Let’s just advance the inevitable to the manageable and productive.

We should have big glamorous “retire when you choose and when your chosen young successor is likely to take your place” galas.

Talking to you RBG and JRBiden.

I’m a huge advocate of our advance from primitive hind brain “might makes right” thinking (favoring, essentially, violent strong men; see also: history) into our more cognitive forebrain (where intellect and knowledge rule), but…

Damn some of this rich a F dweebs need some hind brain correction!

a man is laughing while sitting on a couch with his legs crossed . ALT: a man is laughing while sitting on a couch with his legs crossed .

The best burns are true 😂😂

I remember Obama’s self-enriching meme coin conference that caused such extended outrage on the right. Shaming the presidency and all.

Oh no that was a tan suit.

Steve Rule: attack allies instead of the enemies who are doing the harm.

Go join Hamas and help wipe Israel and Jews off the map “from the desert to the sea”. That is genocide. It is their widely publicly stated goal.

More opinions from Steve.

Easy block with just 2 examples!

At best, Carvell is doing exactly what he is accusing others of doing: attacking fellow democrats (with whom he doesn’t agree 100%) instead of forming our big beautiful diverse inclusive coalition and attacking Trump MAGA MAHA Project 2024.

Why don’t the Dems try harder to introduce and pass bills in the House??

What slackers.

See? Nuance is dead 🤷‍♂️

Israel is in the right (to exist, to defend themselves) AND they are committing war crimes.

Really not that difficult to understand.

I see that deliberate misinterpretation and unpleasantness is your thing.

Do better

Blocking now

Name the blatant lie.

Who is committing genocide?

Who has sworn to commit genocide?

Nuance is the opposite of absolutism.

Name one good thing Israel has done.

Name one bad thing Hamas has done.

Name on bad thing Palestinians have done.

Do you think murder is ok?

What Dem that says opposing genocide is the new nazism?

Not a challenge — please explain

My complaint is the lack of nuance. Yes Israel is in the right, and yes Bibi / IDF is committing war crimes

And yes the only genocide called for in the region is destroying Israel “from the river to the sea”

It’s just a sample and not statistically significant, but it’s not without meaning that so far 17 people have liked my comment and none have liked yours, and that your comment “that’s not what he’s doing” is not accurate.

Also just go away.

You are expanding a simple factual observation into a larger issue.

You seem to be arguing that I support the military industrial complex, endless war, and believe every word the military says 🤷‍♂️

Go argue endlessly with someone else, I’m not interested.

AGW is my thing.

Our military budget is bloated beyond necessity.

They are huge polluters of noise, toxic chemicals, CO2.

Getting off FF will realign geopolitics and save money and the planet.

They lie.

AND co2 from all flight and military is not the easier or best way to reduce emissions.

Excellent news! Sublime is awesome -- check out their appearance on the Volts pod:

Do you know what ratio refers to?

Since my comment went up.
