That’s because that’s what’s allowable by international standards and agreements. We’re “selling” it to those countries as a part of our trade and military agreements.
Sending troops, where feet touch the ground on foreign soil during wartime? That’s a whole different ballgame. That’s how World Wars get started.
It has to be given in context.
He said that after his home town that he was a mayor of, got shot up by a Maga nut job with an AR15.
I agree with you, but that’s not what happened here.
You don’t want the state to get used to committing extreme violence with their citizens.
You should read up on the whole ordeal. The article is failing to summarize the lengthy legal battle that’s been happening between them for years since Musk’s takeover.
No, because he’s rich and influencial and keeps saying and doing shit that gets him front page in the news. That’s the way the world works unfortunately.
Trump is absolutely worse than Kamala for Palestine by orders of magnitude.
What’s happening over there is horrible, but don’t for a second, peddled the lie that our two choices are the same right now.
That’s tankie talk, and I won’t sit by and let it happen.
This was a photo op, exactly.
Who fist pumps while being hauled away by USSS? Especially one that’s demonstrated true cowardice over trivial things in the past.
He’s not saying that to try and make Palestine or himself look good, he’s saying that to try and make Israel look bad.
That’s it.
It’s far fetched because there’s literally no evidence of this anywhere other than someone’s imagination.
Your link didn’t work. I can’t even register on kbin because the captcha doesn’t work in FF. Maybe you could SS it and post here or something.
I do not have the context you’re implying I should have read to hear the side you’re arguing for.
I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt and read it if you’ve got something that might change my views. I’m not trying to be ignorant or illogical.
I’m sure there are legitimate criticisms of the law as it was written, but that’s true of most laws. We never get them right, especially out of the gate, but at least the attempt is being made.
My issues are with the “clout” those 3 billionaires have and how they’re influencing their followers to believe in dangerous and hateful logic that hurts trans people at the end of the day while they sit in their ivory towers, safe from all the problems they’re causing for us little people.
I’m sorry. The hate train? The hate train???
Are you trying to use a mirroring technique to try and manipulate me or other readers with some cheap psychological trick, or did you just sort of stumble into those words like you stumbled into this thread?
The purpose of the law is to protect people who are actually receiving hate trains. Like the kind that fucking kill them. Every fucking day.
Remind me again how many self absorbed narcissistic Billionaires die a day due to hate trains?
What’s that fucking number again?
Zero?
Yeah. That’s what I thought.
Fuck off with your nonsense cheap psych101 shit trying to make, literally the most powerful people in the world, into victims, while the real victims: trans people, are actually getting murdered, and beaten, and raped, and tortured.
But, fuck do go on. Really.
Tell me how much these billionaires are suffering because they can’t turn their massive insecurities into dog whistling hate speech that ends with innocent people dying.
I’d hate to upset their mamosa mornings on their private fucking yatch you absolute waste of space in a human skin.
Get the fuck on the right side of history and stop sucking the dicks of the oligarchs that have never, and will never give a shit about you or anything you care about.
No. You don’t get to make that weak bad faith argument that keeps getting used here by the intolerant.
Additionally, I said no such thing that you straw manned my argument with, which tells me everything I need to know about your motivations.
You do not get to use our system of tolerance against us.
There are limits to tolerance. There must be, or else fascism will always creep in. Whether or not you yourself are a fascist, you are using one of the oldest arguments of fascism to undermine a functioning society.
You know what we call someone sitting at a table full of fascists?
A fascist.
And that should tell you everything you need to know about the law. Which is to say it’s clearly on the right side of history.
And apparently you’re fluent in fascism in all three.
What would it take to make you happy my man?
Correct. He’s calling the GOP bluff and forcing them to move on from the border issue, by exposing it as a non issue
Both sides aren’t the same. They haven’t been for a while now. Trump is just a manifestation of that.
These fuckers actively tried to overthrow the government. Fuck them, and anyone who is still voting for the party that’s still trying to downplay January 6th.
Agreed. But sometimes, you need to remove the infection first before it can heal.
Removing trump from the equation removes their rallying point and sends them back into the shadows, where we will build a beacon of light to educate them out of.
Morality is not derived from religion. Society has moved well past that.
If you don’t understand then you lack education, but that’s the only reason. You are not in the right here.
