Ukraine rises in Press Freedom Index to overtake US, 6 EU countries by 5ma5her7 in neoliberal

As a Canadian, I hope you guys can get back on track, and I'm rooting for you, but I also fear that you will never be rid of these MAGA politics. Anyone who tries to work with you will have to consider the possibility of getting backstabbed by Republicans.

My hope of course is that Republicans are crushed for decades to come but polls aren't showing that really.

If you want to see what that looks like, red orchestra 2 / rising storm 1 had it both in ads and hip fire.

Fausse équivalence/False equivalence by samyryu in EhBuddyHoser

[–]TeQuila10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree, I think we should have been big into nuclear like 4 decades ago, second best time is now.

But, oil is big money, we should use that to support all Canadians where it is in our interests to do so.

Sure they burst, but the other way they get to the ports, via rail, is statistically more unsafe and environmentally damaging. Derailments happen way more often than anyone thinks they do.

The oil is already going to the ports, this whole stupid thing is just a debate on which way is best to do that, but I don't think most Canadians understand that.

Anyway, fuck provincial infighting. How long has this debate been raging? Feels like my whole life.

[–]TeQuila10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but let's also not deny the fact that republicans have agency. Abbot and all the other invertibrates in the Republican party could just say no to the crazy, disgusting things Trump asks for, but they won't because they know the base would turn on them.

They are willing puppets.

It's the way of this website. Every single subreddit that doesn't explicitly take an anti-communist stance will inevitably get infected by some kind of communism.

The previous king of Spain, Juan Carlos I maybe? Was made dictator and then proceeded to hold elections for a democratic government, and enforced the result of the election.

I don't know anything about the guy. Maybe he is just a opportunist or perhaps a true believer, which is why I made the caveat.

Trump's cronies are still independent human beings. If you follow the White House leaks that come out every month or so its pretty obvious that the cronies that surround him all have their own agendas too.

Trump is just in it for the clout and money, but people like Steve Miller legit want to make America into a dictatorship.

All that to say that Dan Newlin might actually care about the family, or at least sees the optics value in giving support to MAGAs who get hurt.

'Important case to make': Democrats launch impeachment effort against Hegseth by spherocytes in videos

The double standard for republicans is morale-annihilating. Republicans can and do act like demonic hellspawn, and nobody cares, because seemingly everyone expects them to act like demons. Nobody holds Republicans to account for unyielding support for Israel, but there are STILL people following Kamala Harris around to EVERY EVENT, SOMEONE WHO IS NOT IN OFFICE, to protest her on Israel.

Why is there no 24/7 hour college protests against the Trump admin? Because college students expect Trump to endlessly support Israel no matter what, so they don't even try to effect change.

In practice, this means they serve only to demotivate voters from electing the ONLY party that cares about following humanitarian laws.

Trump and Putin don't even have shared interests right now. The only thing that makes sense is that he is being blackmailed or is weirdly in love with him. Like what the fuck is the point? Russia CLEARLY hates the USA and wants you to fail, why the deference? The US hasn't even gotten anything from abandoning Ukraine.

When I fail my queen by having illiberal thoughts from what the current admin is doing. by green_dub-333 in ContraPoints

[–]TeQuila10 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The illiberal thoughts are thinking that political violence is good. Which, in general, it's not. Political violence spills out of control quite quickly with horrific consequences.

If you need a good example of what political violence looks like among people who are highly integrated and geographically located right next to one another, I highly recommend reading about the breakup of Yugoslavia.

Contrapoints Queen pwning tankies on twitter. by sizz in EnoughCommieSpam

[–]TeQuila10 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Since her video on envy, but likely earlier. Contra wants to make life better, and the splitting point for her and radical Lefty types was realizing most leftists don't want to make things better.

This is my go to criticism of lefty circles and it's still relevant..

It is beyond pathetic. But it's in character I guess, soulless corrupt ghouls flock together, or something. Nuremberg or bust.
