A Democrat who won't speak up for trans people or genocide victims won't speak up for anybody

the admin that imprisoned and tried to deport a student over a pro-Palestinian op-ed, calling it anti-semitism, calls outrage over "I love Hitler" texts by young Republicans "pearl-clutching"

Fascinating. Politico notes that when notified of the texts, many state-level Republicans fired or condemned these cretins. Now Vance emerges to excuse the racism, and calls the reaction to it "pearl clutching."

He seems determined to purge the party of its last enclaves of decency.
‘College Group Chat’: JD Vance Dismisses ‘Pearl Clutching’ Over Young Republicans Leak to Attack Jay Jones
Liberals hit back at Vance's blunt dismissal of racist, antisemitic and misogynistic messages leaked from a Young Republicans group chat.

Trump does not deserve credit for anything beyond one thing: being willing to push Israel even slightly, a very low bar that Biden was simply unwilling to clear

State has been rudderless for almost a decade, with Blinken of a piece with Tillerson, Pompeo, and now Rubio. Shameful.

Trump is a buffoon and windbag, but it'll take years for Democrats to admit that their party, in spite of claiming to stand for diplomacy and intelligence, backed a profoundly sadistic punitive expedition by a fascist race state and burned more credibility than Trump did during his first presidency
Trump's role in Gaza ceasefire was decisive, but not a roadmap to peace
Trump's Middle East visit was a victory lap - but peace does not emerge just because a president decides it.

If you are continually surprised or disappointed in institutions and people in them your analysis / understanding of capitalist society needs some kind of adjustment

Consistent surprise means you don’t actually understand the world you live in

Biden incinerated children and lied about other dead children to justify the incineration, shooting, and starving of more children

Trump is president now and he's a real piece of shit, and his shittiness is running on a track greased by Biden

But liberalism is perfect and doesn't need to be fixed

Basically my entire politics. I am interested in your liberalism if it's liberalism that takes liberalism seriously but I can't consider it to be such a thing if there is some racial exemptions made simply for the benefit of your preferred group in MENA. This is what liberalism in the US does.

I do not oppose liberalism as a camp per se I oppose their exceptionalization vis a vis Israel

Politics creates strange bedfellows but also strange opponents; Biden gave Netanyahu everything he wanted except Trump leads the baying pack of hounds on which Israel has based all its hopes for hegemony
missingjigsaw.bsky.social
Netanyahu had an ideal partner in Biden, who was so ideologically committed to the support of Israel he couldn't be forced off the path, but his own ideological commitments lead him to prefer Trump, who is a much less reliable ally. Biden and Bibi both chose ideology over expedience.

It was absolutely a big departure and literally stopped the whole Trek part; people forgot that Next Gen was literally born from a soft reboot before we talked about reboots, and then DS9 came out and it was... very different

Glad you're giving it a new chance!
