The term "above reproach" is a very toxic phrase when used on political officials in a democracy

Your belief that the ideology was stellar is ideology based, not evidence based. YOU thought it was stellar but millions of Americans on the left and in the center thought it was dog shit, and it failed to win against the least liked politician ever. Therefore by DEFINITION, it was not stellar.

Nothing says more about your ideology than the fact that someone can criticize a genocide and not even mention a woman and you will say "That's misogynistic".

If every president was obsessed with a peace prize the world would be a better place

Sorry but this IS a dumb take. His argument is that no one believes in a two state solution anymore therefore it is not a solution. But no one believes in AMERICA anymore because We have not been an honest actor. There are only two final outcomes: two state solution, or ethnic cleansing.

This should be grounds for an ambassador's resignation.

"Sicker" - no universal health insurance
"Weaker" - sedentary lifestyle
"More infertile" - pollution

Exciting conspiracy theories provide cover for more obvious but more boring injustices.

If you would not wish death on anyone then you lack appreciation for the seriousness of the world and the impact that evil people can have when they are given power.

Fascism uses liberalism to destroy liberalism. If Kirk was practicing democracy the right way then so is Trump

...and cheer as thousands of children are starved to death in Gaza. Let's be honest the reason they condemn it is likely because they don't want to be assassinated themselves.

Organized religion explicitly trains you to be a sucker for con men

Well science enabled scientists to perform fundamental research that was used by biomedical engineers to develop the method. Fundamentally it was done by people so Thank People

Donquiote Doflamingo said "Of course justice will prevail, because whoever wins this war BECOMES justice!" What that means is that we are not objective observers, we are products of our history. It's easy to say that good always prevails when you are part of the side that has prevailed.

"Trump is a pedophile" and by extension "Every intelligence official who knew about the files deliberately covered up that Trump was a pedophile"

FYI it's not for earth it's for whatever astronauts nasa is sending to the moon. So like "trump is building houses on the moon" like yes, they are trying to build a base which will have many things, gardens, habitats, energy. Maybe building the BASE is ridiculous, but why focus on the reactor?

The longer they delay releasing the files, the less people will trust the results.

If you think it's not a complicated issue then you are the simple one
July 19, 2025 at 6:13 PM
That is an oversimplification. Its one thing to say that that cutting funding for iron dome could help stop the genocide, it's another to suggest that this is apparent at face value.
July 19, 2025 at 6:12 PM
AIPAC mostly spends money to primary politicians who displease them. That is how they defeated cori bush, Nina Turner, Jamal Bowman. That threat of primaries is what keeps congress in line.
July 19, 2025 at 3:26 PM
That's why I'm in favor of cutting ALL military aid to Israel. They want to commit a genocide? Fine. Take the money for Iron Dome out of their own state funded health care budget and see how quickly their citizens turn on Netenyahu. Better yet, take it out of their bomb budget.
July 19, 2025 at 3:23 PM
US funding for the Iron Dome does not keep Israelis safe, it free them from consequences of genocide, both military and economic. Perhaps if they had to pay for their defenses out of their own pockets, their citizens might not be so quick to support an offensive war.
July 19, 2025 at 3:21 PM
This is a complicated issue. I am a Jew who has been to and knows people in Israel and I of course want them to be safe. However, no other country has the power Israel has to attack without fear of retribution. That power, provided by the US, has corrupted them into the rogue state they are today.

Just like a human.

What influence? Influence to do nothing. Power is not power if you don't use it
