They are not bound to lose.
That is a statement that is being pushed, along with the whole Biden “Over prepared” thing as a talking point to push why we have to stick with a dementia-addled genocidal asshole.
It’s simply not a true statement. You’re stating an opinion as fact, and it’s misleading as shit.
The second someone else gets picked is the second that they (Whoever they are) have name recognition and people will consider that person.
What does bipartisan mean again?
I apparently have to absolutely clear here:
The OP meme is mocking people claiming that the two parties are the same, because in one field (The number of convictions) they aren’t.
The OP meme mockingly asks people to tell it again how the parties are the same.
I’m LITERALLY doing that. And your response is “Yep, they are the same on that issue.”
No, we’re not.
The convention hasn’t happened yet.
Finally, the logic is simple. Biden is a genocidal fascist. If you’re afraid that we will live in a fascist state if Trump is elected, then my answer is we already do.
If Trump is elected and goes full fascist, what do you plan on doing? Whatever it is, you should already be doing it.
Are we supposed to be so virtuous that we allow Republicans to kill all of us just so we die with the Palestinians that no matter who we elect will die!? It makes absolutely no sense.
Resisting fascism and genocide isn’t about virtue. It’s about survival. You’ve been conned into believing that if you just vote for the lesser genocidal fascist, then you or whatever oppressed group you identify with will be fine. You will not.
This well known poem
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
is about you.
Oh, you are right about that.
He can’t. His only power over SCOTUS is nominating Justices in the event of a vacancy.
This is wrong. He can pack the courts RIGHT NOW. The Democratic party still holds the Senate. There is no requirement for there to only be nine justices.
Edit: This does require the house changing the number of justices. So the above is incorrect.
Backing genocide isn’t better.
There is no harm-reduction past a certain point, there is just throwing vulnerable people under the bus to save yourself.
Convention hasn’t happened yet. It literally isn’t too late for that.
The Presidency is mostly a sock puppet for the military industrial complex. We aren’t catching lightning in a bottle there.
So, just to be clear, in matters involving the military industrial complex, both parties are the same?
Like the original post is asking to be reminded about in a snarky fashion obviously trying to imply that there is no way they’re the same?
Which party do I vote for that stops spending money on weapons or war?
Or, at the very fucking least, spent less money on weapons or war than the year before?
EDIT: I notice all the downvoters don’t actually respond to a point in which both parties are the same that literally drives a lot of the domestic issues we have.
Stop defending murdering people in other countries. It’s also pretty racist as most of those people are not white.
Everyone hates her for very good reasons.
There is a reason California didn’t vote for her.
At that level, Kamala is hated by her home state as well.
You weren’t paying attention. Many states banned anyone else from the ballot, even though there wasn’t cause for that by the rules.
There were no debates (Something that would have given Democratic party members time to decide if they thought Biden was electable.)
Some states were told their delegates wouldn’t count.
There was no fair Democratic Party primary. If you think there was you were either not paying attention, or you didn’t want a fair primary in the first place.
This problem is a problem of the Democratic Part{EDIT}y’s own making.
This is a comment from someone who has no idea what DKIM is.
Those emails were cryptographically proven to be sent from that email server.
Saying anything else proves you are ignorant of the technology and trying to provide cover for emails that were proven to come from the DNC servers at a mathematical level.
It’s amazing how many of those started with Lennart, too.
I’ve been self-hosting a bunch of stuff for over a decade now, and have not had that issue.
Except for a matrix server with open registration for a community that others not in the community started to use.
That is what the data Sim is for that I mentioned above.
I’m super happy with jmp.chat
I was hesitant to try it, but once I ported my number over, it’s the best service I’ve ever used.
It’s $5/month, and your phone calls and texts are forwarded to an XMPP account. Voice mails are transcibed and sent as a text, with the included audiofile. It works over the internet, so you can have multiple phones with the number, and you can use your computer for the service as well.
For data, I use jmp.chats data only esim. It’s $7/year + $5/gig but the data never expires.
LOL.
Yeah, that’s why the north is evacuated and Hezbollah is striking the north of Israel with impunity. How’s that Iron Dome working in the North?
Secondly, Hezbollah is probably, pound for pound, the most competent military force in the region right now. You want to discount that to feel safe, well, that’s part of the fuck around and find out. Thirdly, Iran will have this as an Casus Belli to enter the conflict, and the PMU’s in Iraq have already stated they will invade in the event of an invasion of Lebanon.
The only powers in the region that are threat to them are Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.
This is what makes it clear that you are not a serious person in the area. Saudi Arabia couldn’t beat the poorest nation in the world with American planes, Columbian mercenaries, American refueling, and American intelligence all while starving the nation in an attempted genocide.
Saudia Arabia as a regional military power? That’s a bad joke. I can’t believe you wrote that with a straight face. They were literally beat by teenagers in flip flops.
The scenario I described is World War 3.
That what Bibi, and Biden with his unwavering support, are playing with.
then you’re sorely mistaken about how truly insane US defense spending is.
NevermindNoMind already made this point to you but it bears repeating, Money spent doesn’t translate into combat effectiveness. In fact, it tends to actually go against it. EDIT: Or, more specifically, money spent on individual weapon systems. The best weapon is the cheap one that can be mass produced, even if there are better weapon systems.
Ansarallah has been clear that part of their missile strategy is to eat into our budgets. They’ve been winning by that strategy. The total cost of their drones/missiles used against the US was in the several hundred thousand range, and the estimate for the missile defense ammo the US has used is around a billion dollars, and that was several months ago. Even the US can’t compete with that cost disparity.
Secondly, it doesn’t matter how many ships you have if you can’t resupply them with ammo. America outsourced its production capabilities. It didn’t outsource its weapon production facilities, but we can’t convert the facilities we don’t have any more to support increased ammo production, and we don’t have enough weapons factories to supply the requisite ammo for continued operations in a modern war.
Third, your usage of “just planes and helicopters” is stupid beyond description. I am not willing to agree with you that the US will have air superiority in all theaters, which sadly is what its military doctrine both requires and assumes. (Which, by the by, is why the NATO trained Ukrainians did so poorly with their spring offensive. It’s not their fault they couldn’t use tactics that assume air superiority that they didn’t have, but jesus the NATO people switched to racism right quick to explain the failure.) However, other countries doctrine assumes that air superiority won’t be theirs.
Iran, for example, assumes they won’t have air superiority from the start and so they spent most of their engineering time on missile technology. The Russians have tried to compete with their aircraft, but focused mainly on their G2A anti-air defenses. Now, even with Syria and Ukraine, there still isn’t a lot of info on the effectiveness of the S400 in against the American Airforce.
It also doesn’t account for the huge disparity in drone deployment capability which is frankly the future of the next war. And the US fails at this completely. The two main US drones cost 30 and 40 million a piece when the name of the game here is CHEAP. Frankly, Iran and now Russia beat our pants off on this topic. Even Hezbollah and Ansarallah have confirmed US drone kills. This is the scariest part. Culturally in the American military right now, being involved with drones was not seen as a career advancer, and definitely not something you’d want to put money into serious research.
This is more than I meant to write in response to a comment that basically amounts to a middle-schooler pounding their chest while screaming “My daddy can beat up your daddy” so I’m going to end it here.
If you think money translates to military readiness and sound doctrine, then you’re not thinking about this very hard at all.
Sorry, I misread your comment as sarcastic.
I apologize for responding to you as I did.
