But I was told the democrats were the morally superior choice! How could the morally superior choice reject helping families and the poor?!

How could the morally superior choice capitulate to the framing brought forth by someone getting money from the person who is supposed to be your mortal enemy? That doesn’t seem morally superior to me!

I am. Just because it’s done with a suit and tie here in America doesn’t make it any better.

I’m sure you feel that this doesn’t represent America, how about you give Iran that same grace? Americans have a government that doesn’t give a single shit about the wishes of its citizens, I’m sure you can imagine that Iran might be similar.

Does America deserve to be bombed for still having legalized slavery?

Does America deserve to be bombed for still allowing child marriages?

Does America deserve to be bombed for it stripping away women’s rights to bodily autonomy?

Does America deserve to be bombed for the Christians pushing for the Bible to be mandated school material?

Just think for one second.

We all have faults.

America is the model the Nazis looked up to.

Sounds like those militaries need some nukes dropped on them.

How about this? Stop fucking with other people’s shit. If Iran wants to protect itself, it has every right to do so. And that means closing the shipping lanes they ALLOW others to use.

They killed Apollo and I’ll never forgive them.

Luckily, Voyager is pretty similar with Lemmy

Only Lemmy.

Im IP banned from Reddit though. Still wouldn’t ever go back.

So they’re just going to fill it with Hitler’s world view, got it.

Typical and expected.

So what do you call someone who actually thinks that it will get cut in the current politics of today?

A dumbass?

An idiot?

A big ol’ dork?

Well good thing it will never happen. ☺️

Imagine trying to undo thousands and thousands of years of evolution surrounding…. Earth’s gravity.

But you go ahead and fantasize about us destroying all the planets in the universe. After all; we’re the only thing destroying ours.

We shouldn’t be building rockets PERIOD. They cost too much and are eventually only going to serve trillionaires.

FIX SHIT ON THE GROUND FIRST

That said,

They did a test from 300 meters, sure it’s cool but I think they have a LONG way to go before they are competetive.

I don’t believe they have even hit space yet, the test was only from 1000 ft.

Still, cool as hell.

Wait. This is just more commodification of space.

Fuck that. And I will be against it until we figure out our fucking shit down here on the ground.

Was there even any cohesive message other than, “America doesn’t have kings”? I didn’t see one. Sure, it rallied people together, but to do what?

We need an actual leader. Someone or something with consistency. Protest are good, but a day isn’t enough. We need a plan and a strategy.

Right now it’s just a fucking mess.

Hell yeah. Now all we need is for them to cut the rest of the veterans.

Terrorists don’t deserve healthcare.

You mean the thugs hired by 50501?

I know Arturo, and if you did any sort of due diligence, you’d know he’s a hardcore leftist.

If you think Arturo was a ‘conservative traitor’, I think you have more problems with simply accepting what our right wing media apparatus chooses to push.

I know Arturo, he was there to support the protests. He was NOT going to do a mass shooting, as he has taken his gun to at least one other protest with no incident.

I’m trying to understand your point, but I’m a little lost here.

Do you mean the way the public reacted to their ad?

Or the way they capitulated to that reaction?

I mean: Yes racism and sexism are pervasive in our society, but using Ben and Jerry’s (operating under the same racism/sexism) as an example; they do heavy marketing tactics toward LGBTQ but they are also an ally.

Does them utilizing that make them bad?

Can something be good and also a marketing tactic?

Even if this is true, I don’t think they’re going to find the number of votes to change any outcome. Didn’t Trump win by like 3 million votes? Maybe this could have flipped an electoral college vote, but would that have even mattered?
