Look at the ratio on this post. If we weren't ruled by a gerontocracy, Dems would understand that this means their base is angry with them. Instead they'll probably go "Bluesky isn't real life, our REAL base is proud of us."

Do you think the ADL faked this screenshot?
A post on X from Nicholas J. Fuentes on June 6, 2024: These political people will say literally anything other than the actual truth. There are basically two things that are going on: White genocide and Jewish subversion And people will call it everything other than what it is or ignore completely and talk about everything else.

This is from your own link. This is exactly what I have been trying to tell you, wound severity depends on the kinetic energy transferred to the tissue, not the kinetic energy the bullet started off with. Ear cartilage isn't over bone OR organs, it's just a flap of standalone tissue sticking out.
Wound ballistics is the study of the effects of penetrating projectiles on the body. **Tissue disruption (wound severity) is directly related to the amount of kinetic energy (image) transferred to it, not to the total amount of kinetic energy possessed by the bullet.** Bullets fired from rifles generally have a higher velocity (1500 to 4000 ft/s) than do those fired from handguns (700 to 1600 ft/s). Rifle bullets have more kinetic energy and therefore a theoretically higher wounding potential, but wound severity is the result of multiple variables, the most important of which are bullet type (weight, deforming type, fragmenting type), bullet velocity, and the characteristics, location, and nature of the impacted tissue itself (tissue over bone or tissue over organs).

This line of "It was fine if Biden had cognitive decline, because his excellent advisors could manage it" is never going to work. It is the main reason Dem popularity fell off a cliff. No mea culpa, no acknowledgement that it was wrong or dangerous. thehill.com/opinion/camp...
Whatever dementia issues Joe Biden may have, there is no denying that his staff was superb at managing them and protecting both Biden and the country. Trump, however, doesn’t have those guardrails. That’s one of the reasons we are seeing what we are seeing. Can you imagine Pete Hegseth or Kristi Noem managing Trump’s dementia or even simply telling him “no” and threatening to resign?

The land wasn't just free for any Israeli to take, there was a Custodian appointed. It's now called a scheme to steal their land, but it only applied to citizens or nationals of the states that attacked Israel, or Palestinians who fled TO areas those states controlled. www.un.org/unispal/docu...
(a) If the Custodian is of opinion that a particular person whom it is possible to define as an absentee under section 1(b)(1) (iii) left his place of residence – (1) for fear that the enemies of Israel might cause him harm, or (2) otherwise than by reason or for fear of military operations, the Custodian shall give that person, on his application, a written confirmation that he is not an absentee. (b) The Custodian may, in his sole discretion, but subject to the provisions of section 29, give a written confirmation that a particular person who is at the time lawfully in the area of Israel is not an absentee, even though it be possible to define him as an absentee, if the Custodian is of opinion that such person is capable of managing his property efficiently and that he will not in so doing be aiding the enemies of Israel.

The lands they didn't buy were mostly publicly-owned lands. The border was drawn as fairly as possible.

Here's a map to help you understand who owned which parts of the land over time.

I mean...this is pretty bad, actually? To condemn Israel on October 8, before any response even began, to justify what had just happened the day before? "What will happen when it's time for the annual NYC parade celebrating Israel?" seems like a fair question to ask. archive.ph/RQZsp
He [Mamdani] issued a statement on Oct. 8, 2023 — the day after the Hamas attacks in Israel — condemning Israel and saying that “a just and lasting peace can only begin by ending the occupation and dismantling apartheid,” with no mention of Hamas. (He has since condemned the Hamas attacks as a “horrific war crime.”)

When their numbers came back SO off from everyone else's, and with these obvious flaws like where are the death certificates and what happened to the bodies, it should have made them reevaluate their methods. But they wanted it out before the election because they opposed the war. Open bias.
On this topic, Les Roberts stated "I emailed it in on Sept. 30 under the condition that it came out before the election. My motive in doing that was not to skew the election. My motive was that if this came out during the campaign, both candidates would be forced to pledge to protect civilian lives in Iraq. I was opposed to the war and I still think that the war was a bad idea, but I think that our science has transcended our perspectives."[16][17]

From your own link:
The Iraq Body Count project (IBC), who compiles a database of reported civilian deaths, has criticised the Lancet's estimate of 601,000 violent deaths[27] out of the Lancet estimate of 654,965 total excess deaths related to the war. An October 2006 article by IBC argues that the Lancet estimate is suspect "because of a very different conclusion reached by another random household survey, the Iraq Living Conditions Survey 2004 (ILCS), using a comparable method but a considerably better-distributed and much larger sample." IBC also enumerates several "shocking implications" which would be true if the Lancet report were accurate, e.g. "Half a million death certificates were received by families which were never officially recorded as having been issued" and claims that these "extreme and improbable implications" and "utter failure of local or external agencies to notice and respond to a decimation of the adult male population in key urban areas" are some of several reasons why they doubt the study's estimates. IBC states that these consequences would constitute "extreme notions".[28] Later statements in a 2010 article by IBC say that the "hugely exaggerated death toll figures" from the 2006 Lancet report have "been comprehensively discredited" by recently published research.[29]

Here's an example of an average comment from a Democrat outside of Bluesky. This is obviously the reason why our popularity is in the tank. And it's so, so easy to fix. Just be honest. Just acknowledge that it was wrong to hide the truth.
I am a lifelong lib, it's not execrable if reporting the truth, and the truth is Biden and Jill betrayed me, a Dem voter by lying about the obvious decline and helped elect a mad man. Dems like you are the problem in our party - the mirror image of a trumper who can't accept reality.

This sounds like just a reworking of the right-wing "Irish slaves" myth. www.opendemocracy.net/en/beyond-tr...
“White indentured servitude was so very different from black slavery as to be from another galaxy of human experience,” as Donald Harman Akenson put it in If the Irish Ran the World: Montserrat, 1630-1730. How so? Chattel slavery was perpetual, a slave was only free once they they were no longer alive; it was hereditary, the children of slaves were the property of their owner; the status of chattel slave was designated by ‘race’, there was no escaping your bloodline; a chattel slave was treated like livestock, you could kill your slaves while applying “moderate correction” and the homicide law would not apply; the execution of ‘insolent’ slaves was encouraged in these slavocracies to deter insurrections and disobedience, and their owners were paid generous compensation for their ‘loss’; an indentured servant could appeal to a court of law if they were mistreated, a slave had no recourse for justice. And so on..

[Dave Weigel Quote Post] Was at breakfast w Jason Crow (CO Dem recruiting House candidates) and asked if Dems would run on investigations of insider trading, Signal chat, etc. "I don't talk a lot about investigations and congressional oversight. I mean, that's something that people within the DC bubble talk mostly about." ‪[Quoted Post] Gabe Garbowit‬ ‪@senategabe.bsky.social‬ · 7h Something that is driving me nuts is the Republicans use a powerful tool in a ridiculous way and the democrats response is “well now we must never use the powerful tool because we might stoop to their level!!” A photo of the exchange between Dave Weigel and Jason Crow, in which Crow says Dems can't just be the anti-Trump party and that regular Americans are not thinking about investigation or congressional oversight of Trump.

Whenever someone calls out the abuse, it's always framed as "Liberals are ATTACKING us! They're punching left!" When what the people are actually saying is "You hurt me."

If you're familiar with "The Narcissist's Prayer," it's that exact dynamic.
The Narcissist's Prayer That didn't happen. And if it did, it wasn't that bad. And if it was, that's not a big deal. And if it was, that's not my fault. And if it was, I didn't mean it. And if I did, you deserved it. -Dayna Craig

No, the Hamas Covenant specifically cites the conquest by the Prophet's Companions as their claim to the land and to a right to reconquer it. Have you never even read the founding document of the group you speak for? www.memri.org/reports/cove...
"When the idea ripened, and the seed grew, and the plant shot its roots into the ground of reality, away from fleeting emotions and improper hastiness, then the Islamic Resistance Movement [Hamas] [4] set out to play its role, marching onward for the sake of Allah. [In doing this, Hamas] joins arms with all those who wage jihad for the liberation of Palestine. [5] The souls of its jihad fighters meet the souls of all those jihad fighters who sacrificed their lives for the land of Palestine, *from the time when the Prophet's companions conquered it until the present.*

Ya’alon said that while military commanders may believe their actions are purely operational, politicians have other plans in mind – and his words were aimed at them. “I’m talking about soldiers moving populations, thinking it’s for operational purposes,” Ya’alon said. “But the intention of Smotrich, Ben Gvir, Strook, and Daniela Weiss” – all avowed settlers – “is an open and declared one.”

The post says that all of the organizers, presumably including Khalil, hold the same line endorsing and espousing armed resistance and saying Hamas are freedom fighters being framed as terrorists. I think this is sufficient for a judge to find he broke the rule.

He may have once said that, but the Declaration of Independence that he signed offered equality to everyone who lived there, and friendship to all neighboring states. Read it for yourself. avalon.law.yale.edu/20th_century...
