It goes on and on.

The morally bankrupt Joe Kahn states it's not their job to defend democracy.

TOTAL DRONE STRIKES

comparing estimated drone-strike counts under:

Obama: around 5,000–6,000 total strikes.
Trump: roughly 12,000–13,000 strikes.
Biden: almost zero

If by that, you mean reality-based takes that consider the impact of weaponized disinformation then I would have to agree.

Images of Syrian Civil War Take on a Second Life in Gaza Conflict - bellingcat
Bellingcat has also identified a trend of footage and images from Syria’s long-running civil war being recycled and misattributed to the current Israel-Hamas conflict.

Trump more than doubled drone strikes, and Biden largely eliminated them.

But do tell me more about how you think 'both parties are just the same'
November 13, 2025 at 4:52 PM
Thank you for bringing the data.
November 13, 2025 at 4:02 PM
But regardless, Trump was always going to be much worse for the people of Gaza and global South, generally.

I don't think this is true. But I don't think it matters either way.

The anti-establishment left was whipped into a frenzy in part because of disinfo. There were a lot of horrible images out of Gaza, but a substantial fraction of that footage was actually from Syria.

Understand that you didn't punish Harris - she just gets to spend more time with her family.

The people you threw under the bus are the most vulnerable amongst us - including the people of Gaza.

Perhaps, more fools them.

Gaza is vastly worse off under Trump, not to mention Sudan and the millions that will now die because Elon Musk killed USAID.

"Democratic voters’ fears and anxieties were not shaped by right wing misinformation"

lol.
November 13, 2025 at 8:37 AM
Voters aren't rational, we should stop talking about them as if they were.

People voted their fears and anxieties, and those fears and anxieties were heavily shaped by right-wing disinformation campaigns.

I repeat: during Biden's term income grew faster than inflation, especially for those at the bottom.
November 13, 2025 at 8:30 AM
And yet people were paying less as a percentage of their income for rent at the end of Biden's term then they were in 2020.

Income grew faster than inflation - *especially* for those at the bottom.
November 13, 2025 at 8:28 AM
Reminder: Under Biden, wages grew *much* faster than inflation, especially for those at the bottom, and In just 3 years, the net worth of the bottom 50% went up by 87% - an astoundingly fast growth rate

He voted with Dems on a ton of pro-social legislation under Biden.

Spotify pays artists next to nothing, use Apple Music or others if you want to pay artists a fair amount.
