One thing I have to point out because a lot of people don't realize it is "the Syria test" was never a tankie/campist ID test, it was an "are you gargling Russian propaganda?" test, it just picks up tankies and campists because of course it does
The only people who endlessly complain about color revolutions are dipshit leftie campists and Q-pilled right-wingers and the thing they have in common is they're both huffing Russian propaganda
Sen. Eric Schmitt: "This is the language of a color revolution where you're calling on military men and women to disobey orders."

There is a difference in culpability for events that caused war crimes and being a war criminal. Not every single person who suggested we go to war in Iraq was a war criminal, just the people conducting the war. Otherwise what the fuck are we doing here

Insane but true fact: making US roads as safe as Canadian, Australian, or European roads would save more lives than eliminating murder from the US.

It seems that ever Congressional Republican has at least one issue they’re a normal moral human being about, and the Trump administration is intent on discovering those issues for all of them

I've seen people scoffing at this as a "photo op." And I think it might be a photo op. It's a chance for people who need these services to see their new mayor and make eye contact, they can take photos. They can hear his promises and hold him to account too.

I think it's a good kind of "photo op."

"a single person of this demographic may have committed a crime, therefore we must punish the entire demographic" is a policy response you may recognize from fascist governments dedicated to ethnic cleansing elsewhere.

I think Democrats should double down on trans rights now. It's obvious that most voters don't care about it so you might as well stick with your principles and goad Republicans into focusing on it at the expense of everything else so they're the ones who look like freaks.

Targeting Kelly is one of those “this is why we’ll win” moments, bc it shows how politically impetuous this admin is.

There’s clearly no adult in the room to say “wait, maybe don’t go after the charismatic war hero turned literal astronaut who ran after his wife was a victim of political violence.”
Mark Kelly: "My wife, Gabby Giffords, meeting with her constituents, shot in the head. Six people killed around her, a horrific thing. She spent six months in the hospital. We know what political violence is and we know what causes it too, The statements that Donald Trump made incites others."

“It's both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects" was such a simple message that was so thoroughly and viciously rejected, but i think many of you still need to learn it

the writing is muddled but this isn’t really what the piece says. And unless I’m missing it, the words “no public interest” are not there. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
The Washington Post editorial board decided the Epstein files have “no public interest” before even seeing them. That’s a stunning position for any newsroom to take. Praising Clay Higgins as the lone ‘no’ vote, too? No wonder no one trusts legacy media. Absolutely disgusting.

Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.
