And Israel has murdered and mutilated women on every day since then.

It seems more like a wanton disregard for civilian casualties. Blowing up entire apartment towers because they believe one or more people there were valid targets is unacceptable but not technically targeting civilians.

Reality?

When a psycho cop in the department shoots an innocent kid in the back, the other cops will have to decide either to plant a gun on him or have their their retirement funds drained by a lawsuit.

That gives every cop a financial motive to lie for each other, cover up incidents and silence witnesses.

“They did offer to pay my way and I said, No thank you.”

Sounds like a VIP to me. She was also sitting at the table with the keynote speaker, Michael Flynn.

Until now, Stein hasn’t offered many details about how she came to be there or what happened beyond saying it was “a great opportunity to lay out some of my foreign policy proposals and get Russian reactions to them.”

So she wanted Putin’s approval on her foreign policy?

You’re pretending that meeting with Putin as part of her official duties is the same as associating with him socially.

If that’s true, is that supposed to make it better? She traveled half way around the world to celebrate the anniversary of a Putin propaganda network.

I used to hear people complain that Stein sat at a table with Putin and I assumed it was at a charity event or state dinner but it turns out she was a special guest for the 10th anniversary of the Russian state funded TV propaganda network RT in Moscow.

Remember when they were freaking out about how Canadian bill C-16 was the end of free speech or something because it defined constant and deliberate misgendering from institutional workers as criminal harassment, I bet they think restricting students from using someone’s preferred pronouns is a good thing because it fiGHtS tRAnSGeDeRIsM.

You really think that amateurs with very little experience or training are a good way to deal with violent crime?

It’s more of a suggestion.

You may actually have a good idea there. I hadn’t even considered that option.

I kinda feel like the highly profitable railroads should be forced to pay for their own upgrades. Especially since they keep making trains bigger to increase their profits.

Compliant? The people stocking up on guns generally love genocide and fascism.

If Gaza is your single issue in '24 there’s NOBODY to vote for.

There’s definitely someone to vote against, though.

Democracy is about compromise. Only dictators get their way every time. Vote for the best realistic option and if you’re not satisfied with that then find additional ways to push for change. Protest, organize, make a podcast…

That genocide (it’s really more of an ethnic cleansing) has been going on for decades and Joe’s been pressuring Israel to tone it down. It’s not enough but there’s too much public support in the US for Israel. There would be serious political consequences for him and his party if he pushed for much more than that. Hell most of his party wouldn’t even support him if he went much further.

Also not having fascism is a pretty big deal in my book.

It costs nothing to play and you might be able to avert the worst outcome.

Well, unfortunately it seems your choices will be genocide denial or genocide enthusiastic endorsement. Anything else is a statistically almost impossible.
