I don't think that it says nothing. I think that she's saying that there have been atrocities and that it's reasonable to consider whether it's genocide. There is no magic that comes from using that word.

To be fair with GLP-1s out there a lot of obese people are suddenly losing weight. I know a lot of people not running for president who are all of the sudden forty pounds lighter.

I am admittedly a lightweight but they had extremely strong margaritas from that industrial margarita maker.

Rosa Mexicano did/does this. It was great.

You should go to a restaurant that does this! Freshly mashed guacamole is delicious. No one in the real world finds it offensive.

I do wonder how much of that construction is so that thirty-something Republican men can hit on college aged women.

This is the first generation forged in Twitter. This is what is in the pipeline going forward

purpose of postmenopausal women in 2018 and there is no constituency for that. He's just soaking in deranged online stuff all the time. 2/2

It's kind of like these arguments with online lefties who insist that America has always been this bad. You can look at how people like Musk or Rowling acted and talked ten years ago. It is very clear that social media has deranged them substantially. JD Vance didn't publicly obsess about the 1/2

This is one of situations in which an ADL that had not become solely focused on Israel issues could be pretty useful.

She is very popular among Maine Democrats. I don't think that she should run at her age but I think that she's strongly favored to win.

This is basically like when wee were told that Bernie would lead a people powered revolution that would force Mitch McConnell to support single payer but was also helpless against Mayor Pete endorsing Biden.

I think that IIWII carries more of a tone of resigned acceptance than TWII.

I remember my right wing boss shutting up for about six months because he was getting screamed at by every woman he knew and he was afraid of the social response he'd get for supporting Trump.

I think that a big part of it is that people are inclined to see salary increases as earned but inflation as something done to them.

Why was it a double play then? Where was the other out?

Endlessly attacking Trump as depraved and support for him as a form of moral failure actually made people stop supporting him. Shame and disgust are very powerful weapons.

I think that people are too confident about this. Even if Trump had some juice in 2016 he is constantly gibbering nonsense now but he has a right wing propaganda apparatus backing him and curating him and a media that won't be aggressive. If you give JDV those things he'll be fine.

I mean these are not terrible calls given the limitations of human eyes and brains.

Beyond how funny this is, Trump acting like a dictator is very unpopular!
