It's becoming increasingly better not to ask, because it's becoming increasingly better not to know. Not knowing has become a virtue among people who would rather not have to give a shit. Shame dies by atrophy.

I hate this bullshit, half-bright gotcha question. No state has a right to exist. People do, states do not. Hell, I don't believe /the US/ has a "right" to exist.
This is an entirely uncontroversial view in international law and usually taught in 101.

Results like yesterday are why I believe voter turnout is key to liberal/progressive victories. We got to 64%i. 2024, down from 4 years earlier.

This was never really in doubt, Aftab is pretty good at his job.
Congratulations, Aftab Pureval, on winning reelection!
Mayor Pureval spent his first term tackling Cincinnati’s biggest challenges, including affordability. He’ll spend the next four years continuing to work towards a safer, more affordable, and more prosperous city.

lol I cannot ever NOT live in a city. After a childhood in the suburbs, I'm still immensely grateful to have the ridiculous privilege of being able to hit a doctor's check-up, a supermarket, AND a farmer's market, all within 1.5 miles of one another, and be home before noon.
