They are attacking Norwegian boats. The majority of the boats they are attacking aren’t even from the USA or going to the USA…

They are bombing Yemen, because the houthis are attacking our boats. Transportation ships. Never fuck with US international commerce.

Yes it’s against Reddit ToS to confront MAGA with logic, or criticize the great works of Emperor Monsk

Harmless theory, lots of AI inquiries. Harmful theory: Elon musk is removing dissent from all social media. Accounts being targeted and removed etc.

Fren that is nature of humanity

Fair enough. How would you deal with the most dangerous members of society?

Ah sorry I only saw the 6 Billion dollar increase in spending on the defense side.

But ya saving 13 billion by what slashing IRS, and critical enforcement that would have also been shut down? Like thats the point. They’re cutting critical services and allowing more executive overreach. We’re just gonna stand by all year and watch them strip us of all our resources and leave us with crippling debt. This is foreshadowing for the next round of cuts and taxbreaks.

Not the sex traffickers locking people in cages tho? Cause i want them in cages. I like law enforcement keeping violent criminals off the streets? I do not want my family getting kidnapped and shipped overseas? I don’t want domestic terrorist running around blowing up buildings i frequent. Are you some kind of anarchy purist lmao?

It didn’t cut funding. It expanding funding leading up to next years funding bill. It also expanded executive powers needlessly. Vaguely worded clauses that will be used for more executive overreach. So ya. Shutting down the government for a week or two to force a bipartisan CR, and showing the american people what it looks like when they cut half the government for tax cuts this summer.

A bold gambit. Let’s see if they can survive 4 years of extra judicial ICE deportations. I don’t envy anyone of middle eastern decent if we start a war with iran. Scapegoats just like 2001 but with way less civil rights. Should be fun!

I just described rural America. From sea to shining sea. Did you actually have a historical fact? It sounded like you were just were just speculating without conculsion and casting judgement like that was the only intent you had.

You always gotta think about use lazy users too. Settings are great but you actually need to draw people into a level they want to customize. I’m almost there thanks for the heads up! I’m coming from the lemmy.world url. It’s not bad it’s just not good. It’s great for us older folks but I can see where it would create an age gap. The trend of people who enjoy windows 97 UI is declining.

You are right, but as I sit here and use Lemmy, I can’t help but think while being a perfectly functional forum, it lacks aesthetics. What I’m looking at is Windows 1997 High contrast text editor. It tickles my nostalgia, but I can see why Reddit has a broader appeal. People like gimmicks, as much as they like aesthetics and simplicity.

I’m talking about the Continuing resolution. Here have a read and let me know if you want to discuss it. I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but I am certain you have not read the CR, and I’m suspicious you do not understand how government opperates.

I mean guy like its the money trump is using to fund all the executive orders, wtf are you going on about?

The president does not authorize spending. He just executes the spending. Congress has power of purse, they are the only ones that can cut funding for Isreal. Which i fully support. I would be happy to cut aid to isreal and increase aid to palestine. Happy to help protect palestinian land from Isreali encroachment. I am an ally you are alienating with your harsh views. We probably agree on a lot of things that would benefit palestine. I think without a practical method to acheive them you will never see your goals fullfilled politically.

Mostly because you voted third party for president not knowing that you meant to vote for congress.

It would almost appear they have doubled down on dissing Biden non-stop. Like its the only way they can cope with their lack of political action. Not sure how Trump pulling all restraint from Isreal and providing them with more money than ever is pro-palestine, but you’d think that crowd won the election by not voting or something.

The USAID that used to feed Gaza is gone, nothing is coming into replace it. People are going to starve to death. Not that you cared about that. Doesn’t run with your narrative. Just like hamas stealing the USAID to sell back to starving palestinians. Doesn’t fit the narrative.

If you understood how government worked and cared about palestine you’d be VOTING for a senator and house rep who will defund isreal. But noooooo lets not have any strategic goals in mind when elections come around. Lets virtue signal and seethe and concrete the genocide you’re screetching about.

I really want to get into this opinion. You really believe the 2024 election broke to republicans favor over Palestine? If you are one of the voters that advocated for not voting, are you happy with the result? Is palestine now better off due to trump?

Yea thank allah we got trump in there now. He will find a place for the palestinians. Somewhere near Trump hotel. They will be the foundation of his Christian Empire in the middle east. Inshallah.

Ah yes so just let them shut down the government for the most vunerable americans, and let the part that throws people in jail run free. This is good because instead of everyone hurting, only the people republicans want to hurt are hurting. The rest of the population is free to ignore fascism and go about their normal day.

This brilliant strategy brought to you by people who need to color code morality!
