“No administration has helped Israel more to turn itself into a pariah state” I think is what he meant to say.

He’d better hope Donald Trump doesn’t win the next election or else Joe Biden will go down in history as the president who loved genociding brown people so much he sacrificed US democracy for it.

I know you’re joking, but I used to work at a convenience store and the scratcher addicts were the most depressing part. I guess I should be grateful that the store I worked at wasn’t in an area where more depressing kinds of addicts would be around.

Actual centrists recognize how extreme the right has gotten, and vote accordingly. Bothsiders are the brainless, egotistical tools of the far right, going along with normalizing fascism because they don’t want to think too hard.

I don’t get why democrats don’t push this harder. 2020 was horrible for almost everyone, and you can acknowledge that things still aren’t perfect while making a bare minimum effort to stop Republicans from rewriting history.

Cue republicans immediately trying to shift the discussion to how inappropriate it is to do literally anything at all relating to Donald Trump’s many indictments while the election is this close at hand, because as the republican candidate for president he should be above the law. You know, in the name of fairness.

Not at all, just commenting on how refusing to fact check is affirmative action for Republicans, and anything less will make them pitch a temper tantrum, as we saw after the last debate.

I didn’t have the patience to watch the whole debate, but one part I did see was where JD Vance said he wasn’t going to entirely blame illegal immigrants for high housing cost, then like 20 seconds later lists illegal immigrants and Kamala Harris as the number one and number two reasons for high housing costs, respectively. Every single answer from him I watched, he lied at least once.

I’m not disagreeing with you: both wars are/were unjustified. I’m speaking more to the difference in intent that’s on display. Nobody in the US ever intended to drive all the Iraqi people out, move white Americans in and make it the 51st state. That kind of ethnic cleansing is clearly Israel’s intent with Gaza, and seemingly with Lebanon.
