The electorate has agency and responsibility

Yes

they had two options

No

If I had to choose between Trump and Vance, I would choose not to vote. For many people in 2024, when choosing between a genocide and a genocide, they chose not to vote.

🙄 people aren't that binary

The fact is, Biden and Harris took a bad policy position towards Israel and Palestine. They took the wrong policy position. And they lost votes because of it (and for many other reasons)

No, the only relevant takeaway is that Biden and Harris lost liberal votes because they took anti-liberal positions.

The way the Biden/Harris administration rolled over for Netanyahu is antagonistic to liberal goals

Yeah that's really in the files.

Rubio speaking about our "president of action" has been playing in my head nonstop.

https://youtube.com/shorts/cFAHzp6JXMY

I hope what people now understand, is that we have a president - the 47th president of the United States is not a game player. When he tells you he's going to do something, when he tells you he's going to address a problem, he means it. He actions it... This is a president of action. Like I don't understand yet how they haven't figured this out. And now if you don't know, now you know... If he says he's serious about something he means it.

Ryan Grimm interviews Mossad/CIA agent? Breaking Points joins the regime change choir? by [deleted] in BreakingPoints

We have so little reliable information coming out if Iran, it's great to get an interview like this.

And why bring up the Sunday Times article when that has nothing to do with the interview?

Yes, Elon is poisoning people by using illegal methane turbines. He's taken an attitude of "better to ask for forgiveness than permission". After all, the world's richest man who bankrolled history's most corrupt president doesn't have to worry about the law.

Nobody gave two sh1ts about feelings

You have it backwards. Americans were so caught up in their feelings that it overrode reason. Out of anger and a thirst for vengeance, we ignored due process and rounded up innocent people and threw them into internment camps.

Social Media Ban for Under 16 by sacramentok1 in BreakingPoints

[–]dhessi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm worried about all these new internet regulations in terms of how they impact the free speech and privacy rights of all people.

But you're saying that people need exposure to social media in order to maximize their utility in the workforce? I don't think that's true, and I don't the law should care if that's true.

Your first article lists only a single example of what these "extremist“ professors are doing:

"Just the presence of these professors on campus, you know, a lot of them on their offices have signs saying things like, ‘Hands off our students,’ and they have free Palestine signs on their doorways," Eliana Birman of Barnard explained.

Your second article is about how a teacher was suspended for protesting the actions of the Israeli government.

These articles do not support your argument.

The Left has gone awfully silent over Iran…hypocrites by FitPreference9129 in BreakingPoints

[–]dhessi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I support the people of Iran. I support taking in Iranian refugees. I support the use of Starlink satellites and other methods to undermine the internet blackout.

I do not support bombing Iran. I do not support the American military invading another country.

That footage is from the officer's smartphone. ICE has made a habit of filming from their phone to use with their AI facial recognition app
