The Israeli voter base really saw a guy who was found by the Israeli government to be personally responsible for massacres in Lebanon and was like “yeah this is the guy”
@Toni7331
I think it was the first city the Spanish established and just kind of stayed the capital
They are building a new one apparently on the mainland
@VoidOfRoses
The UN is only as powerful as the Security Council allows it to be
The US won’t allow the UN to do anything about Israel. That’s how it was designed, and unfortunately if it wasn’t designed that way it wouldn’t even exist
The UN is a net good, even if it’s limited in scope
@kaden53535
Because it’s unfixable
Declining birth rates are just what happens in developed countries. The best you can do is limit a total free fall with policy that helps out parents and then take in immigrants
@souljagoytellem
No competitive primary is the main cause honestly
2016 we had too competitive battles and in 2020 we had COVID plus the Democratic Primary
@nikicaga
No clue if it’s legal or not, but this is pretty obviously just from the album “The Wall.” The main character in that album becomes a fascist in the 2nd half, which comes from the isolation the character feels, which has been building throughout the album…
@ET_Californian
@notkavi
I mean its obvious that they wouldn't vote like that though
The Tories didn't even win a majority of the vote in the 2019 landslide, and that doesn't take into account the fact that a bunch of Tories would vote Democrat
@aquaimperium8
It, like most conspiracy theories, falls flat because it assumes our government and its institutions are far smarter and competent then they actually are
Like the Bush administration just legit had a grudge and wanted to show off US might. There was no strategic thinking
Imperial Japan needs to be taught and treated like the Nazis because it’s utterly ridiculous how people treat them like some sweet innocent nation
They murdered like 20 million people in China!
Japan only killed sub 100 civilians on December 7th, 1941. In response, we killed over 100,000 people in Tokyo in one night and nuked cities.
Yes, we actually did overreact. It wasn't a just reaction.
And comparing the Gaza Strip to Imperial Japan is incredibly dishonest.
@LinkofSunshine
Besides whatever the fuck is going on in Western Africa, all the tricolors used in the world are insanely recognizable
Like the European flags are the easiest by far (except you Luxembourg, wtf)

Can you believe in 1932 they were talking about the New Deal, then in 1933 they were talking about Hitler, and then in 1934 they were talking about the Dust Bowl
The mainstream media man
@PADem124
Currently sure, but that’s because they are the obvious good guys and a up and coming liberal democracy
If Ukraine started committing genocide then I would demand we immediately cut them off
Israel currently basically can do whatever it wants and face no repercussions
@carbo_al
Banning all immigrants from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Kosovo just gives away the game now doesn’t it.
You literally looked up countries with majority Muslim population and put all of them on this list.
@maple_politics
@_Reaganite_
If you ignore everything about Hitler’s ideology and whitewash him beyond belief, AND then ignore blatant imperialism and bullying of other nations, then he would totally be good everyone!
The CDU is an awful party and people need to stop acting like they don’t suck
Merkel was bad. Adenauer was bad. Kohl was bad
Just because they aren’t fascists doesn’t mean they are good
Debate Opinions:
1. Biden did very bad at the start
2. He rebounded later on, still not great
3. Trump failed to truly capitalize on it by being utterly incoherent
4. With this debate being so early and with more coming I am not going to doom
5. Biden will be the nominee
@MartineDenise_L
@libsoftiktok
I spent every single day of my school life doing the pledge of allegiance.
I can tell you for a fact they still do.
They shouldn’t because only fascists and authoritarians would do it but it is done
@carbo_al
That’s somehow more embarrassing.
Yeah it’s an own as you specifically target countries just for their religious demographics.
Like Albania is literally a US ally and will join the EU within the next 20 years and you don’t want any of them because of their religion
@PADem124
Can you read?
I literally said IF UKRAINE STARTED TO
I never claimed they were and never would. I’m saying IF Ukraine did, we should cut them off
Israel can currently do anything short of dropping nukes and still receive US support
Conservatives fundamentally don’t understand the process to get into an elite college and it shows over and over again
No one, and I mean no one, has a guarantee at Harvard. I don’t care what your stats are. There is no guarantee
Honestly having 5 of these people still be relevant today is pretty good
They got a president, majority whip of the Senate, two prominent senators, and a VP
Even Rick Santorum finished 2nd in a Presidential primary so he’s not a total miss
@AnonymousLeftie
I mean he would have never had been been president without strong election results for the Nazis
But yeah it is more complicated than just him getting voted in
This is still the actual map of the south (lines in Texas and Florida are not exact, and I am willing to hear some debate over parts of Missouri and Kentucky)
Every argument pro-Israel people use to justify the campaign in Gaza could be used to justify a campaign against the Israeli settlers
Pro genocide ✅
Pro terrorism ✅
Extremely socially conservative ✅
Authoritarian ✅
Votes for fascists ✅
Danger to Israel ✅
@qwertz42069
I can only find individual settlements by going to the actual Israeli results and then control F for the Hebrew names of the cities, but the few I have looked at either give the super conservative orthodox parties the majority, or Ben Gvir’s list
@GielinorCapital
@lefttwick
I’ve lived in Israel, and yeah they are pretty spot on
It’s not a LGBTQ+ paradise, even if it’s better than its neighbors. Tel Aviv seemed pretty good but the other parts of the country…
@magnumoppis
I think violating international law, murdering thousands of civilians, and having a coalition consisting of fascist terrorist supporting parties is more than enough reason to cut them off
@PADem124
It was a hypothetical
I don’t think they will either, but crazier things have happened
My point is that no country deserves a complete guarantee of support no matter their actions
Israel can do anything and still get support, and that’s wrong
@RWPopulism
I love how you think this is proving your point but is actually showing why people discuss blue Alaska
If Trump wins Alaska by 7, that will be three points bluer than it was in 2020, 7 points bluer than it was in 2012, and 8 points bluer than 2016
The more time I spend around politics the more I’m convinced that very rarely are politican’s votes actually bought
Like Republicans aren’t pro-fossil fuel because they get money for doing so, they are because they genuinely believe it
@_Reaganite_
It was both idiotic to have it in the first place, and idiotic to implement it
That’s what the UK gets for electing the Tories honestly though
@nikicaga
He then snaps out of his delusions and puts himself on trial.
Roger Waters as a person has plenty of problems but this is being blown out of proportion. It’s literally just the album he made.
@aquaimperium8
This is why every IR theory only works to a certain extent, and no one should only use one as a way of analyzing international relations
Like I think realists, liberals, constructivists, Marxists, etc all are correct at times, but none of them cover everything
@historyiscool__
I was more mad that they said Eisenhower signed THE Civil Rights Act and then LBJ signed A Civil Rights Act
Like no, LBJ’s is the CRA, Eisenhower’s are a CRA
@gavinbena
It makes sense it would decline to because a lot of those people who served in the 50s-70s were literally drafted into the largest war in human history
Not surprising the wars that didn’t have such a massive draft didn’t produce as many veterans
Pulling the fire alarm is something that would have happened during a 1960s filibuster on a civil rights bill
I can just imagine LBJ yelling at some backbencher Democrat to go pull the alarm to get Thurmond off the floor filibustering
@PADem124
It was a hypothetical you moron
No country deserves support no matter what. That’s my point. If you think we should arm countries no matter what they do then go ahead and think that
@aquaimperium8
Corrupt is not as bad as racism
Neither are good, but I would rather a politician do some shady things then be a segregationist
Also the racists are usually corrupt to
The Great Society ended racial segregation in Tim Scott’s very home state and finally gave black people the actual ability vote.
Tim Scott fundamentally doesn’t understand basic American history. The only reason he is on that stage is because of the Great Society
@lrishConservNat
You don’t seem to understand that we want KO to win because PiS are literally authoritarian thugs
It’s not about liking KO, it’s about denying a right wing authoritarian party from continuing to erode Polish democracy

@whstancil
There are at least 40 Southern Democrats on this map not in majority minority districts.
That is almost enough by itself to flip the House to the GOP. The reason the Democrats don’t have a monopoly on the House is because southern conservatives started voting GOP
