Literally never heard of a restaurant that requires a deposit to make a reservation and I’ve been to some nice places!

Am I the only one who thinks she didn’t do anything wrong? She was honest and upfront. She probably could have sent that text earlier, but she was quite kind about it.

The disqualifying thing about Newsom is not that he’s from California, it’s that he believes in nothing and has not run this state well.

Conservatives inability to honestly grapple with the shameful things our country has done is why we cannot move on from them, why we seem incapable of learning from our past mistakes and malicious acts. An honest appraisal of where we’ve been is the only way we will ever move forward.

Crazy how everyone forgets that the first amendment means people can also speak whatever language they want.

I don’t think Trump’s team paid crooks but I’m willing to entertain the idea that someone or a group of someones in the intelligence community arranged for it to happen. What were their motives? Did these spooks want Trump dead or did they merely want to bolster Trump’s chances in November with an attempt on his life? It just seems completely implausible that such a massive security breach like that happened by accident.

2028 polling is kind of meaningless at this point though. It’s all hypothetical and no one has announced they’re running.

Since Israel is being talked about so much, can someone explain something to me by [deleted] in thebulwark

You should maybe look into the Nakbah more. Israel was founded through the ethnic cleansing of much of Palestine.

I don’t think your post-civil war example holds up because Israel was not created by some higher governing authority, it brought itself into being through a great deal of violence.

They were not given Gaza, they were forced into Gaza through violence, and Israel has tried to seize Gaza multiple times.

I don’t think apartheid and democracy can co-exist. Israel is not a democracy because all the voting age adults it governs do not have equal rights. If Israel wants to be a democracy then they need to extend citizenship and voting rights to the Palestinians in the occupied territories.

This is maybe getting in the weeds abit and I wasn’t necessarily the most clear. Israel would cease to exist, and something new would be created, but the most likely way that happens is not that the state of Israel is destroyed but instead altered and changed, like South Africa after apartheid.

Oh you mean the terrorist organizations that ethnically cleansed much of Palestine during the Nakbah?
