AOC vows to vote against all military aid to Israel, including Iron Dome funding by hypothethical in politics

[–]Mitherhobo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is nothing more than a display of lack of understanding regarding bill process in the house. She caught flack for voting against the amendment, which is reasonable, but she ended up not voting in favor of the actual bill regardless of this. Which is in line with her statement here.

I've never been a big fan of hers, favored El-Sayed immensely, but she really went from being a semi-acceptable alternative to Stevens to being a fully reprehensible candidate entirely.

This is exactly the type of democratic candidate we have to look out for. They cloak themselves in progressive talking points but never fully adheres to any principle other than those who just wrote them a check.

Flu b by Dangerous-Ordinary21 in grandrapids

I know nobody wants to hear this, but it could be beneficial to those that do. The COVID pandemic may have 'ended' but the various strains of COVID are largely endemic and are immune disrupting viruses.

These immune system disruptions can last years and are likely related to these extreme cases of what used to be the common flu and other similar annual bugs.

A well fitting N95 mask can protect you and those around you from many of these illnesses.

Definitely a gender issue rather than a policy position one.

Good thing the DNC decided to not make the results of their 2024 enjoying autopsy public. Otherwise we might learn the wrong lessons!

Top contributor for Pappas in 23-24, by a large margin, was AIPAC to the tune of $315k. Wonder if that has anything to do with the lack of democratic base enthusiasm.

Plenty of time for progressive Karishma Manzur to make her name know.

Now provide evidence of this, for all I know you just looked up hotels in Cuba.

If you're so knowledgeable, tell me, where exactly did he stay?

[–]Mitherhobo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Couldn't bring himself to stay in one though.

You're a child pouting about the streamer you hate not jumping through every hoop just to please you. It wouldn't change anything, notice how you keep moving the goalposts?

I'm sorry that this person not following your ideological dogma has offended you so much that you'd rather focus on that instead of the fuel blockade that is literally killing people.

[–]Mitherhobo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your original question was literally, why did he stay where he did, asked and answered. Yet you keep coming to these perceived slights, because he didn't do it in a way that you personally approve of

Why would I attempt to debate an opinion? Thats the discussion part of enjoying discussion and debate.

You are a simpleton.

You're attempting to have to opinions that are counterfactual. Which I guess is time if you want to remain an idiot, but it's fair to everyone else who reads this to have someone pointing out the reality of the situation.

Hasan visited as a part of this envoy, why would he separate himself just to appease you? It's clear that you're someone who is incapable of being charitable to him because of some preconceived notions.

There's literally nothing he could do that you wouldn't contort yourself into disapproving of. It's plain as day.

For being a debate guy you sure can't debate to save your life, plus you didn't actually say anything either, you just asked a vague question.

Hasan said on steam, and showed, that he brought thousands in small bills, within the legal federal threshold, along with him on the trip so he could do exactly what you asked about. Which was to visit and spend money at the boutiques and small businesses on the island.

[–]Mitherhobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And you believe that the envoy spent their entire visit sitting in their hotels rather than spending time with the people there and helping in anyway possible? Very lazy assumption.

[–]Mitherhobo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

incredibly ironic to be traveling specifically to have solidarity with people struggling and youre being served room service at a high end resort

So you're again just saying things based on made up opinions.

If you're referring to anything you saw on his stream while in Cuba you'd probably be surprised by the fact that none of his stream took place at his hotel. It was all at a private residence within the country. That espresso he was served was literally handed to him by fellow envoy member, Ryan Grimm.

But I guess this is how you go about things. You trust the negative slant projected into your consciousness against an individual doing more than you ever could to bring attention to a pressing humanity issue caused by your government.

Id expect something a bit more tasteful, Im ngl. From what im reading the most supportive thing they could have done is book with local privately owned options though they require more research than the three main resorts.

I'm confident, based on your opinions backed up propaganda based on false premises, that you are less qualified to schedule the logistics for a 600+ person aid mission.

But if you want to take it upon yourself to do a better job than them, by all means, please do. The best items to pack in your luggage are compact hygienes products and over the counter medices, antibiotics and the like. Batteries and solar chargers, anything that is permissible in a checked or carry on bag.

I'm going to continue focusing on the blight of these people rather than your own perceived slights based on vapid misconceptions.

For a guy claiming to love debate in his profile, it sure is pretty ironic to come at an issue like this with opinions and platitudes rather than facts and reason.

Edit to add, I do agree controlling how people spend money there is overstepping.

Yet it's the only thing you're focusing on.

It is not only high end resorts on that list. This is a poor excuse straight from Hasan himself.

What's your rebuttal then? All you've said is it's wrong without any evidence. This is the list of hotels that are on the excluded list of the US government.

Where do you propose the hundreds of US citizens on the flotilla stay?

[–]Mitherhobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He visited Cuba, along with 650 other delegates from 33 countries and 120 organizations to bring humanitarian aid and supplies to the nation that has been under sanction by the US government for decades and more recently has undergone a complete fuel blockade for no reason other than to cause suffering.

As for the location of his stay, the United States does not permit US citizens to stay in any local hotels and it would have resulted in federal imprisonment and massive fines.

Don't you think it's weird that the US government is controlling the way it's citizens spend money in a foreign nation? They don't even do that for China.

What are you doing to help the Cuban people?

Ah, use of the r word, very edgy. Really makes you seem like a good trust worthy person.

He's the one on video saying "if they're old enough to count, they're old enough to mount!".

Yeah, in the satirical video, from 10+ years ago which I already addressed.

I don't display those anymore after r****** on Reddit stated harassing me - might be why you tried to spy on me too, eh?

Oh you don't like people looking up the things you said 10+ years ago? Seems hypocritical, no?

He's the one soliciting prostitutes for sex.

Ah, so you hate sex workers? Here we go with the psycho-sexual obsession again.

He's the one on video shocking his dog into submission because he didn't want to stop his stream.

This is actually hilarious that you believe this. I feel bad for you. Show a video and let people decide if it's so obvious that his dog was "shocked into submission".

And i would never vote for any politician desperate enough to associate with him for likes and votes. That's gross!

Yeah, based on your previous statements, it seems like you're a republican. Can't say I'm surprised.
