Except this is completely true, both parties care more about funding a genocide than helping people

I totally agree. The current political climate is very much one of “why try to solve a problem when you can profit off of it.”

My issue is in the choice of language. Trying to make it seem like one party is to blame when both are.

The idea that every event and subject should be separated and looked at in a vacuum is peak liberal bullshit and probably the most overlooked ideology that makes our society suck so much

There is a difference between direct and indirect connections. In this instance, the aid sent to Isreal has no direct or immediate impact of federal aid to the communities impacted by the hurricanes. It is, however, connected in that it shows the priorities of current legislators.

Did they try when they had a majority and could’ve pushed through whatever they wanted without opposition? No? Then maybe they aren’t serious about passing anything that helps people

I am very confused by this argument. Are you suggesting that if a party does not push legislation when they have control over both houses then they should never try to pass it in the future, or that conditions and opinions are not allowed to change resulting in a shift of priorities? Please, can you expand on what you mean by this?

Moderate, not liberal nor conservative.

stop sending money and weapons and troops to Israel, and send emergency aid to communities hurt by the hurricanes.

Unfortunately, these are two completely separate pools of money. The USA could stop all military aid to all countries across the globe tomorrow and the freed up money could not be redirected to the communities impacted by the hurricanes without an act of Congress which, thanks to Republicans, just said no to doing that.

In my opinion:

Short version:

Republicans don’t want to talk about how they denied the funding to help Americans impacted by disasters, so they are attempting to shift the narrative.

The longer version:

First, because the point does not include of how Republicans voted against funding FEMA while taking no action to restrict the transfers of arms to Isreal (unless there has been a resolution that I am not aware of). This makes it something of a disingenuous argument attempting to spread the narrative that “Democrats support genocide more than the they support struggling American citizens”.

Second, it is an attempt to tie two unrelated events together to keep topics damaging to the Democrat election machine alive while the news cycle has shifted to a topic that could hurt the Republicans election machine.

Third, it offers no suggestions for how to correct either situation. Nor examples of failed / blocked attempts from either party to remedy the situation. Attempts like the Democrats attempt to increase funding to FEMA which was blocked by Republicans.

Didn’t Google try this a decade ago with Google Glass, but recieved such a negative response over privacy concerns that it abandoned the project.

Am I remembering this wrong? Have people’s views on privacy changed to the point where this is acceptable? Does Meta not have the features that Google did which prompted to backlash?

Really hope they mean “as you grow old”.

Reading the article, it sounds more like Baris is making shit up to try and energize Trump voters.

Out of curiosity, what word do you use to describe the act of run fingers over brail characters to process their meaning?

The bar has been lowered so much that I wouldn’t be surpised to learn that some of them couldn’t even read.

With the existing international cooperation agreements now lapsing, the Geneva-based organization is expected to expel hundreds of scientists on November 30 affiliated with Russian institutions, Nature reports.

Or if they don’t like your skin color.

Or if they don’t like your tone.

Or if they just generally feel like it while their body cams are “malfunctioning”.

Basically, if you want to kill people with impunity, become a police officer in the US.

Neither was a Democrat. The first was a Republican and the second was a former Trump supporter. It’s conservatives that are trying to do the assassination.

“I don’t control Laura. Laura has to say what she wants,” Trump said. “I can’t tell Laura what to do.”

If he can’t influence the actions of one of his supports that is physically near him, How does he expect to influence the actions of Putin, Zelenski, Netanyahu, and Hamas?

I’m guessing Trump does not remember when Elon Musk tried to bully Zuckerberg into a physical fight leading to Zuckerberg accepting the challenge and Musk having to tuck tail and run.

• “Yeah, it makes sense that you wouldn’t know.”
• “A human. Did you seriously not know that?”
• “Are you coming on to me?”

Wha- um, what is the big shitter?
