Dems floated a narrow bill to fund the military, which can’t move because the House isn’t in session. Meanwhile, DoD is now going to spend funds not appropriated by Congress to ensure military paychecks continue.

POTUS now both commands and provisions the military. Unconstitutional and SO dangerous
The Office of Management and Budget sent a notification to Congress about their intent to use research and development funds to pay members of the military, two sources with direct knowledge tell NBC News.
A spokesperson for the OMB confirmed to NBC
News that it plans to use the research and development funds and that there are two years' worth of funds available within the Department of Defense.

If Chicagoans in general don’t fuck around, radical Chicago clergy fuck around even less

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil."

"Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I almost suggested you read Gleijeises and Grandin, but I thought a survey would be useful

Regarding our original subject matter, I would recommend you read the Jakarta Method.

The reason I keep asking what you read is because everything you’re saying is largely sane-sounding, but incorrect and ahistorical, “conventional wisdom”. This is one such example.

Alan Moore considers himself a magician, so I guess you could consider Watchmen a magical working that horribly backfired on him. he was trying to write the coda for superhero comics but ended up providing the formula to make them Forever Content for maladjusted adults

That isn’t true, people love to see rich fucks eat shit.

Another good purpose of taxation is to make rich people less rich. Even if we burned the money it would be an objective good.

European countries aren’t financially sovereign, we are. Why do you think we need to balance the budget?
kafkapresents.bsky.social
Okay, again. No other statement. What do you read? What is your historical basis for any of the things you’re saying?
kafkapresents.bsky.social
Not sure, as a conservative why do you think the universal healthcare has to be paid for with balanced budgets when no other country on Earth has a problem doing it?

You want us to adopt a model that doesn’t work and keep claiming objectively false things like “uncommitted won, we got Biden to drop out”. What is your sourcing for this? YouTube?

Lmao, The US was literally selling guns to Milosevic on an exclusive basis to fracture a rival economic bloc to Poland and Germany.

What are you reading? What is your information environment?

I’m sure the 200,000 people killed in the Genocide in the Maya Highland are very grateful that Arbenz didn’t protect his democratic revolution.

I guess fighting a war to end(Castro, not Mao) Apartheid wasn’t progressive enough for you :(

Do you know what the “liberal” in liberal democracy means? Do you understand why leftwing Allendists get killed and their countries are torn apart for parts?

If this was happening in any other country you'd have journalists and analysts discussing risks of state failure

Might want to consult the speeches of Nelson Mandela, queen.

Cuba’s non-liberal protected democracy has recently afforded LGBT people more rights than any other nation in The world

Did they get killed too? What happened to Arbenz, did he win?
kafkapresents.bsky.social
Oh cool. What happened to Castro and Mao?

As someone who’s studied Allende(I was curious so I peeped your page) what makes you think that the capitalists will let you do what you want through the means you want? What happened to Allende? Did it turn out well?
