    I would rather build a real, actual house for people than a system of oppression built on violence.

    And that does not happen overnight, if you don't follow up protests, and some voting.

    Bitch I’ve been voting for a quarter fucking century.

    I protested the fucking Iraq war II and it still fucking happened.

    Keep telling me this bullshit actually works like I’m some fucking eighteen year old.

    Democracy is broken

        Are people surprised? Republicans are war hawks even more so than the Libs.

        Dude, USA is the country that is involved in most wars - starts them / finances them / whatever. And they usually find a dummy excuse to preserve their facade of doing good.

        Face the truth - you are the bully of the world and the ruling party does not matter.

          But only against countries that pose no threat to them i.e. they are chickenhawks. At least Biden could do the bare minimum to help Ukraine.

          And considerably more than the bare minimum to help Israel

            Was I ever in denial that the USA likes to play bully and world police? Let's not forget our history about the rest of the Western nations, they're hardly angels themselves. We're all the same people anyways. Actually that reminds me of a good ole George Carlin quote, "We come from that northern European, basically the northern European genes, the blue eyes. Those blue eyes. Boy everybody in the world learned real quick, didn’t they? When those blue eyes sail out of the north, you better nail everything down motherfucker."

              Agreed. I wanted just to emphasize that the party does not make much of a difference in regards to wars.

                  Biden ran on getting back into the deal with Iran, then insisted that Iran must completely return to fulfilling their side of the deal before we would consider returning to ours.

                  Both sides are not the same but Biden shouldn't be let off the hook for his sudden flip on this issue.

                  Both sides are the same because Biden said something that suggested he might be hard on Iran (definitely couldn't be a negotiating tactic)?

                  Yes I know how you ended your comment, I was replying to the rest of it.

                    Absolutely, I just don't think it actually helps Democrats in the long run to pave over their often deep flaws. If we were harder on Democrats 30 years ago, we probably wouldn't have Trump today.

                    Nobody is paving over anything, you just cannot help yourself but shit on them theoretical shit that Biden didn't even fucking do yet.

                      I think some of the people here are literal children... At least I hope so with how naive and clueless about history they are.

                        (definitely couldn't be a negotiating tactic)?

                        No, it definitely wasn't a "negotiation tactic". It was meant to avoid negotiating without Biden's adoring masses noticing that he did a 180. He caved to AIPAC, as he would continue to do throughout his term.

                        Why the hell would Iran go back to fulfilling it's obligations under the agreement when the US was still ignoring it's obligations? Why would it bother negotiating with a country that doesn't honor negotiated agreements? Everyone in the foreign policy space knew exactly what it was.

                        Yes I know how you ended your comment,

                        Then why the fuck did you haul out "both sides"? Why are so many people desperate to throw everything into that frame?

                          Yet? I'm not sure how to argue with someone who thinks Biden is still president. It doesn't seem worthwhile.
