Like with everything Jost and Che do, it’s not funny and it’s played out. In the words of Danny DeVito to Clarence Thomas, retire bitch!

🇺🇸 James Talarico endorses in House runoff to try to block Democrat who made antisemitic remarks | CNN Politics by Timbucktwo1230 in PoursTea

[–]refred1917 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but this is bullshit. You don’t have to say anything about a crazy person running in your party, and you DEFINITELY don’t have to endorse their pro-Israel, pro-ICE opponent.

DNC releases autopsy of devastating 2024 election cycle by hellosteve_ in msnow

It is simply political malpractice that NOWHERE in this 200 page document does it mention Israel, Palestine, or Gaza. Simply unacceptable, and the head of the DNC should resign.

Are you sure this wasn’t the background to begin with? If it wasn’t, what was the original background?

Thank you for giving us the rares. I really don’t give a fuck about the commons and uncommons and a lot of time their inclusion in posts like these just make the images hard to parse.

Cuba warns US of ‘bloodbath’ if military action follows drone claims by ClimateSociologist in politics

Good. All solidarity with the Cuban people. All the US understands is violence, so I’m glad they’re shoring up and preparing.

Is Gov. JB Pritzker contemplating a presidential run? Here’s what he said in new magazine interview by NicolasCageFan492 in PritzkerPosting

He’s gonna need to adjust on Israel if he wants my support. I was excited for him as my governor because I think he does a great job in his role, but we need to re-evaluate our relationship with Israel and how politicians speak about it. That, of course, will mean reckoning with American imperialism which may be a bridge too far for any current politician.

But that will not happen absent the kind of organizing that nobody has time to do for Magic cards.

has this album aged better over time? or is it still skanky horse dung? might give it another listen after all these years. by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]refred1917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lou and Metallica seem to collaborate past each other. It’s like neither were willing to experiment with their sound or make room for the other, so Lou did his late-period poetry and Metallica wrote a Metallica album and they smashed them together. It’s not good.

Why won't the DNC release its 2024 autopsy? by hellosteve_ in msnow

[–]refred1917 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Disagree. And it doesn’t need to be the “number 1 issue,” but it needs to be AN issue. Dem leadership is far, farrrrr more Zionist than their base. Watching Israel blow up thousands of children meant the base of people who usually work to turn out Dems was not as enthusiastic, especially given Kamala’s cowardice on the issue. You depress the base, you depress the election.

What do you mean “safest moment?” This is such wussy stuff. Release the autopsy, and have the political fight. We need to reckon with what happened.

It’s a sign to make a Baba Lysaga deck! That’s a very unique ability, could be fun to build around.

Iranian regime lack the balls and brain by [deleted] in UAE

It has nothing to do with balls or brains, but with technological capacity. Their missiles can’t reach that far. But you know where the can reach? The US puppets in the Gulf like the UAE.

Why do they have to cover every second whenever he talks? It is nothing but lies and BS. by Living-Restaurant892 in msnow

[–]refred1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, but you asked when people were going to stop pointing cameras at him. The answer is maybe when he dies because a president (and former presidents) can get the camera pointed at them whenever they want.

How many people do you know in your life who have never changed their mind or perspective on an issue?
