Because the government is a terrorist state that sponsors genocide and the branches of that terrorist state sponsor terrorism globally.

They don’t want power, nor do they want to criticise power. They just want someone of their preferred party to be able to profit by insider trading.

I was thinking the other day how fucked we would have been if Covid kicked off under a Hillary Clinton presidency and a right wing Congress. Wonder how many more people would have died because "her hands would have been tied."

Not feeling good about h5n1 under either 2nd Trump or Harris.

Harry Reid could have dissolved the filibuster but he thought that would be impolite and he didn't care enough.

Harry Reid could have been dissolved in acid but sadly that didn't happen either.

I remember reading about the Parliamentarian in the Constitution and civics class. What's wrong with you tankies?

The executive branch could absolutely unilaterally cut off support to Israel. We already have laws that prohibit arms transfers to countries interfering with USAID operations, and we're signatories to treaties that prohibit arms transfers to countries if we reasonably believe they will be used in the commission of war crimes. The easiest one for the president to prove would be the former, since we literally have reports from USAID saying this is happening. It's also worth noting that we have treaties obligating us to provide certain amounts of aid to Israel, but enforcing these laws is the sole responsibility of the executive branch. Biden could choose to cut off arms transfers at any time, and if someone wants to argue that our obligations to provide aid for Israel supersede international treaties they can let the courts sort it out.

If this is true then surely the system needs huge changes so that necessary progress can be made

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
