It is that the power exists at all, to speak on behalf of a god that does not exist. To impose a mythology on a Human Being without consent, teaching them that this mythology is reality.
That's what I am angry about.
The existence of this power is in itself an abuse.

This was my first pinned post here and one of the first posts I was kind of happy about. Right when I started actually using this place.

That we are even entertaining the possibility that he’d order an invasion of a NATO country means that he should not be President.

I think the Greenland threat is a troll. I think.
But it would sure be nice for some senators and GOP house members to speak up now and make it clear that an attack on a nato ally would lead to removal from office

If he's rejecting it out of hand, that tells me two things.
1) He is not worried about getting ousted.
2) None of his members are pursuing a shutdown seriously.

People think that Kamala Harris would’ve made everything OK. They obviously have no idea of of US imperialism. Every single president has bombed or invaded or deposed someone. I don’t see how she would be different. Either way neocons were going to infringe on another country’s sovereignty

A friend just had her checking account wiped out by her family's new health insurance premium (which went from $890 a month to $2800). The thing is, she'd cancelled the policy in early December, assuming it would also cancel the autopay.

Whatever Xi and Putin have told Trump their overall target is to break and destroy the U.S. Venezuela might turn into an embarrassment for the U.S. very soon.
Shortly after being sworn in as acting president of Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez met with the ambassadors of China, Iran, and Russia.
