You’re comparing apples to oranges.

But that’s okay.

It’s objectively a healthier option. All for it.

Having a parent in charge of programming instead of an algorithm makes a world of difference.

Good.

This is the digital equivalent of making sure the cigarettes and liquor are locked up, because there’s a wealth of evidence that social media is harmful to young people.

If you didn’t want to have to actually parent your own children instead of parking them in front of a screen that’s driving them toward self-hatred and fascism, you shouldn’t have procreated in the first place.

The whole ‘rescue plane’ bullshit was a nice little cherry on top of this propagandistic shit pie that the Israeli and US Media cooked up.

What’s lazy is this McCarthyist nonsense you and yours are spewing here.

I’m anti-war.

Doesn’t make me a traitor, whereas you and yours have never seen a war you dislike, even though we keep learning that the past three decades have seen the US go to war over and over again based on false premises.

It isn’t directly

Good. Perhaps say something relevant then.

That’s a completely separate issue.

What does that have to do with my comment exactly?

EDIT: By all means, downvote a literal and factual statement, chickenhawks.

It should be noted that opposing the US becoming entangled in foreign wars isn’t treason.

Literally two of the same arguments used to get the US mired in Iraq and Afghanistan, but even if this instance includes no cash payouts, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a cost to US taxpayers made in neglect of our own people. Further, hundreds of billions in cash have been spent on the war in Ukraine and our US-sponsored genocide in Palestine.

Forgive me if I’m not willing to digest them this time around. This nonsense and the neglect of our people here are why my eighty-year old parents are driving for DoorDash.

Totally, man.

There’s absolutely zero meaning to making that salute and invoking that iconography in a public setting.

He’s not getting arrested for ‘wrongthink’.

He was arrested for being a terrorist.

Good.

It was a mistake letting Nazis and others practice their terrorist views in public. Freedom of expression is not and never should be an absolute right.

This comment demonstrates that you, inexplicably, don’t see our unprecedented and planetwide warmongering as part of said ‘capitalist wealth hoarding’.

That is an interesting position.

Thank you for your comment.

This is, to me, the severe irony of Trump as a president. All of the good things he does seem to be for the wrong reasons, and pulling back on our foreign aid will be one of them.

Personally, I never supported the US becoming involved in Ukraine. If we lived in a time when Americans weren’t struggling to pay for groceries or forced to ration life-saving meds, I might feel differently, but right now, we shouldn’t be sending a single cent to any foreign wars. We should be laser-focused on our own people’s suffering until the standard of living in this country resembles the first-world country we’re supposed to be.

That’s a good question, I think.

I know most people don’t, but I consume a few foreign news sources myself. It helps to lend a broader perspective on US governance, and with the US press running cover for fascists, it’s an increasingly valuable way to learn more about US events.

I mean, that we know of.

Clinton was fairly brilliant in branding his wars as ‘peacekeeping actions’ and Obama rebranded civilians as ‘enemy combatants’, so while yes it may be unofficial, we’re still essentially at war everywhere.

I keep hoping someone will slip a nuke or two to Palestine so that whole business can be stopped, but I don’t think it’ll ever happen.

Yeah, our Kurdish allies learned the hard way not to depend on US support during Trump’s first term, and honestly, I’d love it if he pulls our country out of more wars, even if he does it for the wrong reasons. I’ve never supported the US being the policemen of the world.

As much as I hate to hear about war spending increasing planet-wide, it’s definitely dawning on our allies that depending on the US for protection and support is no longer a tenable position. It might turn out to be a good thing that more countries develop a modern military apparatus, though, particularly as there are several Putin-type heads of state in the world.
