Perhaps more frightening than the immediacy of the war crimes is the gaslighting that is forever changing the mindscape of humanity. Orwell is spinning in his grave...

Google the "economic center of gravity" - it's been moving towards Asia for decades. Trump (or any other President) is not selling out to Putin. Our politicians are collectively making tactical decisions while the Chinese are making strategic plans. You give Putin too much credit

He respects Putin, but he's working for Bibi.

Labeling is a great way to navigate a debate... Have you ever lived under a fascist regime?

I think you just proved my point

I don't get it - Trump and Bibi may have started WWIII, 100,000+ dead or dying in Gaza, and you're still barking at the moon over deportations? Where is your sense of materiality?

There's a kind of perverse symmetry to this - Ukraine has Chernobyl, now Iran has Fordo. Let's see how Israel responds if they get to join the club.

That won't happen - Israel controls Congress. Wait until the other shoe drops - Iran has less direct ways of responding to this
imtanuki.bsky.social (@imtanuki.bsky.social) reply parent
A mute point, since AIPAC owns both Trump and Congress. Where is the moral outrage over Israel's role in starting this war?

Progressives: we stand for tolerance and diversity of opinion... Also Progressives: but only if we agree with you.

Interesting - he is making a legit effort at creating dialogue and not one person seems interested in that. At some point, we have to have civil discourse with people we disagree with, don't you think?
