Huh? “the west” has been sending tons of weapons, ammo, & equipment to help Ukraine the whole time. I think that counts as sending more than just “letters of warm regard”

In politics the rich absolutely decide what our “viable” options are. Campaigns take a lot of money and politicians spend most of their time on the phone with rich people making promises in exchange for money.

It is possible for the poor to overcome them but that takes a huge amount of cooperation and coordination. The rich do whatever they can to keep the poor from reaching this level of cooperation. Its not impossible but the scales have been tipped a long ways in the direction of the rich. I’m not interested in giving up I’m just saying they have almost all the power therefore they bear almost all of the responsibility for the way things are

Yes the people choose but the wealthy decide what our options are

We do it to ourselves.

No, the rich do this to the rest of us. Extremely wealthy people are the enemy of society they will destroy everything to earn a few more bucks

The democrats are currently pressuring Israel and pushing back politically

How is Israel being pressured? Do you mean phone calls where Biden asks bibi to chill then sends him everything he wants anyway? That’s not pressure. Pressure would be putting conditions on arms transfers and Biden won’t do that so the only thing separating Ds and Rs on this issue is a very thin veil of rhetoric that no one believes anyway

The actions of the president are going to have an impact on the upcoming election that doesn’t change just because 1 party subbed in a new candidate with the exact same policy positions

Look at the veil on her head dude, it’s translucent.

This painting is a masterpiece

Every day I inch closer and closer to setting up my own plex server (or something else if there’s a better alternative idk)

but the term “raspberry pi” makes me scared and confused

Biden’s refusal to reign in bibi is going to get trump elected

I don’t think anyone on those tankers deserved to die but I also know that the hundreds of thousands killed in Gaza (and the West Bank) didn’t deserve to die. Yemen is putting up a blockade and saying we will keep doing this until the genocide stops. It might be ugly but its a good cause and theyre the only country taking a stand. I applaud that. No shipping from anywhere to anywhere should go through the gulf of aden until the mass slaughter ends

If it stops goods from getting to Israel then it’s a successful blockade, which does hurt Israel

Are they carrying goods destined for Israel?

Except for all those ships they’ve attacked that aren’t going to Israel, or controlled by Israel, or even have anything vaguely to do with Israel and her allies.

Source? I thought they were only attacking ships that dock in/ship to Israel?

Also, have they killed/indefinitely detained anyone? Or just cause property damage?

So If I want to help the people being genocided, I have to vote for the person doing the genocide and just hope that she has the Intention of changing things in the future even though she has shown zero signs of having that intention.

This “democracy” isn’t worth saving

The only two real options are both pro genocide, pro military industrial complex which tells me this country is fucked there’s nothing I can do to help that. All I can do is follow my conscience and my conscience won’t let me rest if I vote for genocide

The harris campaign is openly hostile to the anti-war anti-genocide vote. They are not interested in trying to get our votes. If they make the calculation that they need the anti-war vote to win they will try to appeal to us but they have decided (so far) that they don’t want us and don’t need us.

Don’t blame us for not voting for a candidate who doesn’t want our vote and is actively hostile to our position.

Ukrainians can remove their leaders

Ok we’re on the same page then, we’re both ok with the people of Donetsk/Luhansk rebelling against the Kyiv gov

I didn’t ask about Russia, I asked about the majority of Ukrainian voters who had their democratically elected president removed from office.

So the majority of voters who voted for the president that was overthrown in Ukraine’s Revolution should just let it happen? Thats democracy?
