It’s all said in @glandsbergis.bsky.social post.
There’s nothing to add.

Please don't start relativising his racism people...

Like, he literally came down the golden elevator declaring Mexicans (rapists? no good pieces of shit? I can't remember tbh, but something pretty close to that).

Let's not have Trump's charm offensive get to our heads?

You're sounding as if you forgot what he campaigned on.

I'd suggest not letting this charm offensive get to anyone's head!

We're conveniently ignoring that parts of the PLP sabotaged their own election campaign (on account of rather losing then winning with Corbyn as leader), are we... ?

I'm not sure if we should be happy he (or perhaps they) are accepting this label - certainly not with the Coast Guard upper echelon declaring yesterday that Swastikas are no longer hate symbols.

Trump doesn't have the public support he think he does on this.

Everyone in the States should call 202-224-3131 and give their Reps and Senators a piece of their mind on appeasing Putin.

Right now.

I can remember how that went down when they *did* take questions 🤣 (I think it was Pelosi and Schumer in the first Trump admin?).

Related: If I'm not entirely mistaken, there was/is correspondence pointing at the intelligence people in US military (or state department - can't tell anymore, sorry) carrying info about Japanese willingness/imminent to capitulate up the chain of command.

That's funny, because of course we don't have the counterfactual of "no bombs dropped, do they surrender?"...

lol, that's a real deep analysis there 🤣 .

I'm sure if you found the Corbyn shadow cabinet "far left" then you're real pleased with what Starmer + gang are up to, lmao :P .

Plus, are you in any way interested in receipts that point towards Truman deciding to drop the bombs because of the Soviet Union, rather than Japan itself?

Any receipts ?

More like pointing out his hypocrisy than attacking him directly, but yeah, get your point. (And good to see someone off the -Sky doing so!)

First two are no surprise, but if "is prepared to treat it like Iran" was what he *literally* said about Turkey, then wowser!

You'd think he has enough trouble on his hands without making himself some more...

They're worried about tanking individually, even against the shambles Labour ?

Guess the Greens must be looking more formidable than I'd have expected :) !

Ok. And then they didn't because Atomic bombs?

Pull the other one, sorry.

(Excuse the sarcasm, but theres plenty of anecdotal evidence that points in the other direction - that as you say, the emperor wanted to surrender anyhow - which can as well be taken to argue it would've happened regardless)
