Maybe our bones will create a new layer in the Earth that’ll be covered over and the earths ecosystem will degenerate and eventually recreate itself billions of years later, leaving a future race of newly evolved, curious species to crawl out of the ensuing muck to find in us a great energy source trapped underground and drill it to the surface for use.

They need to address what people actually care for. Everyday costs.

Costs versus wages is a better metric to target. Costs always go up unless there’s deflation. Wages should go up to match.

You can be doing two things at once.

Obviously, war aide isn’t “for peace” which is what I was saying no to.

But who cares? You got your way nobody wanted to vote for Harris. Enjoy the celebration.

Nobody needed proof.

Lol quite the counterargument. 😆

Oh well, you’ve gotten your way Harris lost to Trump. I’m sure you’ll badger his supporters and push on him to end the war peacefully and won’t just spend all of your time writing up new Democrats bad and libs bad posts on lemmy.

No, they were trying to have peace talks with Netanyahu for peace.

Netanyahu was able to successfully run the clock out on them, and now they have close to zero leverage because even if Biden single-handedly impounded the funds for Israeli aide, they still have plenty of powder left to blow through and Trump will resume the flow of aide in two months.

Why would his attitude have to change with Harris vs his current attitude with Biden?

Because Biden and Harris and various other Democrats wanted peace and were genuinely concerned about the people in the region caught up in the conflict. Trump gives absolutely no shits about any of it and neither do Republicans who will allocate the funds because that’s how our government works.

Netanyahu was filibustering the peace process hoping for Trump to win while he ran out the clock. If he, like Putin, were forced to deal with Harris instead of Trump over the next four years his attitude would’ve changed after the results were announced.

This comment is terrible for a boatload of reasons but one of the funnier ones is that you’re talking about shifting blame from a group to an individual and then name two groups (last I checked the DNC isn’t one person).

I think it’s Woodward’s brand. Trump respects some brands even at his own detriment.

Sure, “no man sets foot in the same river twice”, but that does nothing to argue against the preservation of cultural items.

Take music, for instance. I never feel the same way the second time listening to a song as I did the first time, but that doesn’t make the music less special or change anything about it at all, and it certainly does nothing to advance a hypothetical argument that music shouldn’t be recorded or that the recordings of it shouldn’t be preserved for future enjoyment or different audiences.

You’ll get all the Logan act violations you seek if you act now!

It was obvious as hell that he wants Russia to win.

I hate that I even know who this disgusting asshole is.

How do you measure the wealth or power of a sovereign king, or any other kind of dictator?

This is also borne out in practice as you watch the purportedly “most powerful man on Earth” constantly tap dance for Putin in lockstep with the GOP. As a kleptocratic dictator, he informally adds the entire country’s economy to his personal net worth.

The GOP is foaming at the mouth to form a right-wing dictatorship in this country for precisely the reason you are addressing here. A person with powers of complete dictatorship over the world’s biggest economy would definitively make them the most powerful man on Earth without a second even deserving mention.

Germany is a stable liberal democracy with stable instutitions.

For now.

the Foreign Ministry is gearing up to issue visas to true patriots as soon as September! It’s time to stand up for spiritual and moral values!

My God these people are fucking idiots.

True patriots leave their country for Russia, and to flee your country is to “stand up for spiritual and moral values”. /s

I know you think you’re the smartest person on Earth giving unthinking Americans lessons or something but you haven’t taught me a damned thing here at all except what the German word for neoliberal is.

(But, I know, don’t dare call them that!!! 😡🤬 😤)

😆

Separately, even frequent users of the habitual be wouldn’t write a sentence like that.
