“Barely”? He won by 4% pts and won Ohio and Florida including all blue wall states. I don’t know about barely. Keep in mind Obama was still recovering the country from the financial crisis and Republicans were constantly trying to pin the economy on him.

One of my favorites. Crazy film that spans such a wide range from goofy to tragic.

NES: The Legend of Zelda

Sega: Primal Rage

PS1: Vigilante 8 (close second Medal of Honor)

Xbox: Morrowind (my first experience with both this genre and open world), followed by Halo CE

Pretty much stopped with consoles and stuck with PC thereafter.

This is Trump’s America. Shame.

Egg prices and rent still too high, too.

Ukrainians still dying in Russia’s attempted genocide.

Gazans no better.

Not only that, that’s not the first time he’s done that. He’s had practice.

haha!

Trump says, “Finish the job” to Bibi while transferring the embassy to Jerusalem and you think you’re going to get more results with Trump than Harris? Even if at best the same, as the Venn Diagram proves, it’s deeply illogical. You drank the online Russian vodka and now more Palestinian blood is on your hands.

(Forgetting the obvious fact that you’ve got Ukrainian blood on your hands now, too, since Ukrainians also wanted Harris over Trump)

The kids want to “fight fascists! >:(” but can’t bother educating themselves on the issues enough to realize they’ve fallen for the classic — textbook even — BoTh SiDeS fallacy that is peddled every election cycle.

Not true. People like you contributed to giving Trump the popular vote and a broader mandate, leaving aside down-ballot Congressional races.

By the way is this you in this picture?

In a way, you too are now complicit in exacerbating genocide.

Ok but I just want to clarify before we valiantly and romantically take the fight to fascists…

… Did you muster the courage to vote for Harris, return2ozma?

I hope every single post hereon out has a pinned comment saying, “If you sat out for whatever bullshit reason and didn’t vote for Harris, don’t say a fucking word, for you enabled this.”

Nordic Dem here. I’m not opposed. Until you’re in a position to actually change the rules of the game it would be dreadfully fucking stupid to limit your supply for the war effort hinged on an overgeneralization when there are billionaires who seek to change the system for the better.

Does anyone truly believe Dems can win without big money of their own in the face of players like Musk dumping $70 million into PA on a whim? Fuck no.

If you disagree then you better have a very fucking solid, tangible plan to take make media and advertising without $, post-citizens united no less.

I’m still chuckling that people are trusting anonymous Arabian sources and not recognizing this for the obvious political theatrics it is. (Hint: this is the Circular Reasoning fallacy part, where one has yet to prove the original premise before leaping to illogical conclusions).

I mean, really, do you think he’s this TOUGH NEGOTIATOR after all these years and not a complete Reality TV star phony playing games of optics with Bibi behind closed doors? Hahahahahaha!

The ceasefire hardly even matters anymore. The vast majority of civilian deaths have already occurred and Gaza is nothing but razed ruins and rubble. Trump told Bibi to “Finish the job” with Gaza, and Bibi basically did just that.

Your fallacies are:

• Post Hoc Ergo Propter Hoc
• Begging the Question / Circular reasoning

Try not to construct your beliefs atop a flimsy house of cards.

The stupidity is with these fools thinking Trump would be better for Palestinians.

If it wasn’t obvious with Trump moving the embassy to Jeruselum and telling Bibi to, “Finish the job” while privately meeting with Bibi to likely stall a ceasefire agreement pre-election to make Democrats look back, Trump definitely is fully enabling of said Genocide, likely making it worse (eg, you think he would’ve pressed for a humanitarian aid route into Gaza? FUCK no.)

So then the logical thing to say in an inevitable binary-choice election is: “if Trump and Biden/Harris are equally bad on Israel/Palestine policy (they’re not), is Biden/Harris better on other issues, notably domestically, like oh I don’t know women’s rights and climate change?” You bet your ass.

Hence why couch sitters and Stein voters piss me off far more than Trump supporters, themselves; for they should know better. Yet they fell for the online astroturfing disinfo wars. Drank the Russian vodka.

Edit: The user below keeps curiously deflecting, so I’ll just cut to the chase by going above:

Genocide (a) has a spectrum of severity and is not a boolean function, while (b) Gaza isn’t the only place an attempted Genocide is currently being carried out; Ukraine is another place — and it is abundantly clear that both Biden and Harris were better than the Putin-sympathizing puppet that is Trump. So if you didn’t vote, worked against Harris, voted Stein, etc. then YOU, too, are complicit with blood on your hands of WORSENING not one but TWO genocides.

Between November 5th and now would have done exactly jack shit. Especially when that would be immediately reversed by Trump anyway. Besides, it’s not as though the Democratic party ceases to exist. What makes you think Israel still wouldn’t do that in order to justify even worse atrocities, then blame Democrats anyway? That’s what’s called a High Risk / Low Reward play.

But nah man, keep believing Trump will be better, or hell even “equally bad.” If you genuinely care about Palestinians, then you’re about to get a wake-up call. Moving the embassy to Jeruselum while telling Bibi to, “Finish the job.” Well, mission accomplished I guess.

Though with anonymity and online astroturfing operations I cannot rule out the viable alternative.

Truly I cannot believe how after all this time and everything Trump and Bibi has done that people are still naive enough to believe they’re acting in good faith and not entirely for political optics. Absolutely remarkable.

Because if I wasn’t clear the first time, it’s bullshit.

Let’s invoke a thought-experiment and play said hypothetical out:

1. Stops sending weapons.

2. Bibi conveniently ignores intelligence if another real or false flag October-7th like attack.

3. Democrats lose with certainty, accused of both being Antisemitic (by Russian, Israeli bots, AIPAC, etc.) and leaving poor Israel defenseless against evildoer terrorists.

Ah yes. Sound strategy.

lol bullshit. This is showboating political theatrics.

Bibi and Trump are playing their respective games but make no mistake: Bibi already got everything he wanted moving forward. Couldn’t have been more obvious, too, that Bibi and Trump were in direct discussions about preventing a deal pre-election in order to help Trump win.

This is no different than Trump and Putin’s public optics, and no different to how Trump undermined the border security bill.

Biden needs to transfer to Ukraine a nuke right now to provide some M.A.D. insurance. If he doesn’t, I worry Trump will look the other way completely should Russia escalate with tactical ones or worse.

Edit: Guys, please educate yourselves on MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) Theory. The point is deterrence through mutual destruction, which effectively worked during the Cold War.

EDIT: Russians down-voting? I can only assume given the curious lack of substantive counter-arguments.

Because Republicans with Trump gained full control of the US, effectively all geopolitical support is going to drop off for Ukraine over the next 4 years. It is imperative that Ukraine be given leverage ahead of this transition.
