I tried to convince y'all that the constant criticism of Democrats was going to put the GOP back in charge, but oh well here we are.

Whether or not Israel was committing genocide last year or this year is for the courts to decide. That's just the way I am.
If you accuse Democrats of having supported a genocide, you are a lying Kremlin useful idiot imso.
You've been gaslit into believing lies like these.

Do you want to know why I support biofuel and other sustainable attempts to replace fossil fuels with production and research?
It's because people are just plain not going to stop doing stuff like this that burns fossil fuels nor do I want for them to.
