    Middle East conflicts have always been very fine needles to thread, and this one is one of the finer ones. Harris’ statement on her meeting with Netanyahu was excellent.

    Note also that Harris is currently Vice President of the United States, and what she says reflects actual US government sentiments, while Trump is a twice impeached 78 year old convicted felon who spends his efforts thinking about whether he’s more afraid of electricity or sharks.

    Trump described Obama as “disrespectful” in 2014 when he saluted marines with a latte in his hand.

    Trump described Harris as “disrespectful” when Biden first picked her for his running mate in 2020.

    Trump called Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson “disrespectful” in 2022 for her answers to GOP reps during her confirmation hearings.

    Funny how he never seems to think white people are being disrespectful.

    Two days ago some insufferable clowns run around Lemmy acting like Trump was their man and “it’s the democrats who murder Palestinians”. Something something both sides, but republicans are better, not gonna vote, everyone is dumb, and so on. Pretty sure this won’t chance anything. The density was amazing actually.

    Remember kids: If you go through life thinking everyone else is an idiot, it is you who’s the problem.

      I believe we are dealing with mostly teenagers online, the children of sexist and racist MAGA parents, Proud Boys, old ex-slave owners, nazis that escaped Germany by coming to America, etc.

      That’s how they love to behave, I used to do it myself (not for Trump, obviously, but the opposite). They thrive on provoking people, and that’s it, they think they have plot armor or that nothing will ever happen to them for being young or “anonymous” online. Idgaf about age though, if you’re openly supporting a movement (MAGA) that I already consider worse than nazism, because we have an endless amount of recorded History in books and the Internet for us to learn from and not repeat that shit, yet they do that AND double down on it…, then you’re an irredeemable pos that deserves the worst possible, your parents should be questioned for raising such an hemorrhoid in society too.

      A good MAGA is a jailed MAGA

    It’s so weird watching corporate news fish around for an angle when there isn’t one yet.

    Weird and wrong.

    I’m very pleased to hear this, because I have absolutely zero respect for it myself as well.

    Trump wouldn’t know respect if it ripped a piece of his ear off as it whizzed by at 3000 feet per second.
