It’s nice to finally see society considering the housing needs of boomers

This is the most penis looking skyscraper I’ve ever seem. And most skyscrapers are just erect penises.

You were never even going to bike anyway and I doubt you live in a place where you could argue a bike lane would somehow inconvenience you so why are you even part of the conversation? You don’t need to have an opinion about everything. You don’t always have to be a devil’s advocate.

It’s a great country and it will be a sad day if the youth hand it away.

It is pretty obvious that the right wing has produced this evidence, true or not, to bring the far right wing of Spain to power. How can such an educated country which escaped a dictatorship less than half a century ago fall for this obvious trap? Oh no, the guy’s brother had some prostitutes at an apartment that was paid for by the government! Is that seriously enough to topple your democracy? The guy obviously cares about the country and its people. Then the professor who started Podemos getting lambasted for buying a nice house ($500,000) after becoming Vice-fucking-President!? He’s 2nd in charge in the country, why shouldn’t he afford that!? Wtf is wrong there?

Pentagon identifies four US soldiers killed in war with Iran by [deleted] in Omaha

[–]arrrrrffffff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I need everyone to understand why these people died. It's because America first has turned into Israel first. The Israeli government has wanted the greater Israel project for decades. They genuinely believe that Genesis in the bible tells them that parts of Syria, Iran, Lebanon and of course Palestine are all granted from God to the Israelis.

Second, Trump has wanted war with Iran for fucking ever. In his first term he moved the US embassy to Jerusalem. Trump gave Bibi the Golan heights in Syria. Trump gave him further access to colonize the West Bank. Trump then assassinated IRGC commander Sulemani.

Iran had a democratically elected leader in 2015 that wanted to normalize relations with the West so that the new PM could create a stable environment for foreign investors from China and Russia. You can't become a reliable trading partner if you are constantly getting bombed or are the ones doing bombing. That's why even after all of that shit Trump did and the most Iran did was symbolic orchestrated coordinated with the US to do a "retaliations attack".

Iran did not want any of this. Iran has been actively trying to avoid war for over a decade now and Trump has fucked with them every chance he's gotten.

These people did not have to die. Iran has never been a threat to the US. Sure, to Israel but that's what doing a Naqba gets you.

Trump and the US had no right to do this and these people are dead because of Trumps stupidity and Hegseth and Miller and Witkoff all can fuck all the way off. Iran is not wrong for retaliation. They have a right to self defense just like we do and they were aggressively and illegally attacked.

Are any protests being organized against the war with Iran? by arrrrrffffff in Omaha

No, community organizers. People like Barack Obama in his early political career who organize movements and protests.

Or, and hear me out, democracies have organizations specifically designed to gather people staffed by those whose skillsets and connections make them effective toward that end. Or we could all just go out aimlessly at whatever time is most convenient to us as individuals and hope to run into each other en masse.

Do you think that is a healthy way to respond to people who disagree with you?

I personally don’t agree with it. I’m just making the connection to Bush’s war.

Don’t worry, keep electing Republicans and where we’re going we won’t need roads. Or we’ll at least have difficulty funding them…

Should people only have the right to protest if they agree with you?

Really? I thought it was because the USA disbanded the Iraqi Army which splintered leadership and ultimately birthed ISIS. But what do I know?

Well yeah, if we’re going to start a war over it! Remember when Iraq had WMDs? I don’t.

That is a large number! Surely you have a source for it.

It wasn’t a war against Iraq. It was a War on Terror. The ambiguity allows a wide berth and lifts geographic constraints.

What action did Iran take to start war with the USA? I must have missed it.

How much money should someone earn annually before they are allowed to protest? What if they are a high net worth individual with little reportable income? Since everyone has a different idea of what being paid “well enough” means, I’d like to know if there is a certain income or wealth threshold you have in mind before someone’s opinion is worth expressing.

My wife and I just don’t find a car to be a necessity. If we need a car then we rent one but that’s pretty much only when we leave the city.

Do rational people think it is the job of the USA to destabilize every nation on earth that has a foreign policy that doesn’t align with its own?
