Israel's Finance Ministry has moved the registration of non-tradeable Israeli government bonds from Ireland to Luxembourg, after Irish authorities raised sharp questions about the designation for the money, even suggesting it could be linked to "genocide." www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Were you shaken as a baby or are you just naturally a complete fucking idiot? The Democrats didn't ratfuck themselves. You leftist imbeciles ratfucked them to help Trump win. You refused to vote for 2 qualified women & thanks to your stupidity, we're stuck with a 6-3 SCOTUS & the MAGAMORON cult.

Unfortunately many lighter-skinned people of color also practice suicidal stupidity. Trump won Latino men & got 46% of Latina women. He got 40% of Asians & won other non-black people of color. Blacks were by far his worst group: slate.com/news-and-pol...

I voted for Bernie against both Hillary & Biden because of his excellent policy program, but you're exactly correct. This is why nobody else in my family voted for Bernie. He lost black voters badly each time with his racial illiteracy and ongoing refusal to name racism as the cause of so much.

Trump is building lots of Confederate monuments, including renamed military bases. That's some economic stimulus, but it won't be enough to offset the disastrous consequences of the tariffs and other nonsense.

Bigotry seems to remove rational thought and put irrational hatred over other values I think bigotry might be a short circuit in the brain. Like brain damage. It creates very flawed thinking. I wonder if there is a kind of SSRI that might help bigots slow their stupidity down to think better?

I don't understand your distinction between 'team effort' & 'forced vaccination'. Vaccine mandates are very old. The first 'forced vaccination' ever was the one George Washington imposed upon his army against smallpox. There absolutely were huge vax mandates for polio, worldwide.

Even where pharma does get involved, there's a lot of gov't collaboration and supervision to validate those vaccines. If they could charge whatever they want, vaccines would be much more expensive. You're an anti-vaxxer for sure.

This is nonsense. Vaccines are initially created by government funded universities around the world. That is who does most of the experimentation before it reaches pharma corps. In many countries it never does go to pharma corps and all production is governmental.
