How does forcing people to pay for the bullets put in their dead family members brains hurt the west?
I’m not for the bombing of the school. That’s beside the point. The point is that both sides manipulate the narrative. Both have double standards.

It really depends on your perspective. If you hate the regime of Iran, you focus on the slaughter of tens of thousands of unarmed protesters, forcing people to pay for the bullets that the IRGC put in their heads before being able to pick up the dead family, and bringing in radicals from other countries to help them kill protesters.
If you have an anti-West bias, you are gonna focus on sanctions, the failed interventions, and yes, the bombing of the girls school.
Neither is right because neither have the whole picture. I’m just tired of people claiming anti-West or anti-American perspectives are somehow immune to bias.


I don’t really expect leftists to show the exact amount of empathy for every crisis around the world. Most people focus on issues that matter to them. Leftists are no exception.
My problem is that many assume they are the absolute moral authority. They don’t view their preferences for issues as being biased, just like that of liberals.
Like, it was pretty clear they cared more about Palestine than immigrants. Fair enough. The problem I had was the way they reacted to those who cared more about immigrants than Palestine.
They told immigrants they were crazy for worrying about Trump. They told them “it would have been the same” under a liberal, which goes against a lot of people’s lived experience. And when all else fails, they just blame the democrats for their failures.
I would have respected Uncommitted a lot more if they admitted they took a gamble that failed. Even though I’m against protest voting, I can at least admire that they stood up for what they believed in. They simultaneously want to be trusted with all the power, and use liberals as an eternal scapegoat for any failures.


I love your username.


Yeah. I don’t like intervention. I just was taught to always center their opinions before my own wants.
I wouldn’t have chosen any of this. I just hope that somehow this turns out well for them.
I feel like a lot of people misunderstood me.


I was gonna say Ted Cruz has no legal experience. But then I looked it up and found out he actually does. Still stupid though.

If this was any normal election, then I would have supported the protest voters.
The problem was that it wasn’t. Trump is trying to ethnically cleanse Latinos out of America. I knew this was going to happen and I wanted to avoid it.
Immigrants were pleading with protest voters during the election. There are Latinos who protested with them from the beginning that have now gone into hiding. I talked to an immigrant that was begging leftists to care, and they accused them of being for genocide just for wanting their family to survive.
It’s not that I hate leftism. But a lot of leftists are unsafe for POC and women. They are privileged enough to prioritize ideals over safety. I only trust leftists that are intersectional, not those who champion some mythical homogeneous global working class.


OpenAI sided with Anthropic.


The US is not buying Russian oil.


It looks like they just got a bit too ambitious too soon. They’ve been struggling with glitches and stuff. They still want to, they just need more time.


Given the fact that LAPD refused to enforce a mask ban, I’m not sure how much we can rely on Denver police to detain ICE agents.
The reason LAPD refused is because they don’t want conflict with ICE. The same thing could happen with Denver police.


I misunderstood the title. I thought they meant Denver police will be ordered to use deadly force against ICE agents to protect protesters. The article says ICE agents using deadly force will be detained by Denver police, not that they will get executed.


To some degree, we shouldn’t come back from this. We now know the corruption in the government runs deep. Go back to our politicians being possibly blackmailed by the Mossad? Would it be better if nothing happened on the surface but still no one truly believed the baby eating cabal of elites existed?
I don’t want suffering. I wish this could have been avoided. But we cannot ignore the existential threat the elites have thrust upon us.


Russia does something similar. They intimidate dissidents abroad.


One day, they will pay.


Was it the same poll, or a different one?
Happy cake day!
