Should probably be acknowledged that Islamophobia and anti Arab sentiment seems to be a load bearing part of American liberalism's total indifference at best and malice at worst to a particular section of the world

What if the political ideology of the people in charge of the armed forces impacts who gets bombed? Does anyone think Kamala Harris would declare war on South American fishermen? Could perhaps having people who think brown people are subhuman in charge of our military impacted matters?
What about the rights of LGBT people getting bombed?

Man, I’m not a lover of the military, but this is fucking insane. Makes me dislike the coast guard even more than usual

a lot of people are interpreting this as “wow elite liberals really hate the left” and while thats true, what’s mainly going on here is that elite liberals hate anyone who is young and did not complete the cursus honorum of local politics

The crater is located in Utopia Planitia, the largest known impact basin in the Solar System, with a diameter of roughly 3,300 km, or twice the size of Earth’s Sahara Desert from north to south. 🧪

The President is self-soothing by sharing his followers’ calls for the violent deaths of members of the opposition party on his blog.

liberals seem to have this idea that public opinion forms randomly and that politics is about figuring out how to messure it and adjust your positions to match it, rather than something you actively take part in influencing to your own principles
Obviously, we want more immigrants, it’s one of our founding principals, but we also don’t want things to happen that will set support for more immigration back in the long term

All that said, Twitter only allows editing in the 1st hour, so not easily done.

i don't know how to phrase this delicately, but i just want to communicate to young white men in incel-adjacent spaces that this sort of behavior will solve your problems
I love him. “The first time I caught up to [ICE], I could tell that they already knew who I was. They had seen me before, so they thought they were just going to speed away. I was like, ‘Ha ha, bitches, I got a new scooter!’”

i'm sure it will be of great comfort to the people that are getting bombs dropped on them that the pilot posted happy pride on instagram first
I hate this sort of meme.

“The only difference between the parties is whether the power to destroy human civilization rests in the hands of leaders who think gays, women, and black people should have their rights acknowledged.”

Even if true, how is Rainbow B-52 not infinitely preferable?

Let’s talk about sedition and treason, because the most powerful yet inadequate man in the world is having a tantrum about it, and his soulless, spineless sycophants are boosting his message.

the implicit standard of "criminality" is doing a lot of work here, mostly as a desperate appeal to avoid thinking (not grading any of your students' exams is not criminal behavior either but you can very quickly see how that might nevertheless put a professor's employment in jeopardy)
