Looking at the situation in totality, the idea that only ~63,000 Palestinians have died in the 2 year siege of Gaza is outrageous.

Thank you! Have a wonderful day!

We can not ask anyone to leave their home because we dont like their ideals.

Our personal thoughts are irrelevant in a society where those thoughts are protected from government intervention.

The People voted to enshrine abortion and womens' health into their state constitution.

Most drug addictions are caused by doctors here in the US.

Most intercepted drugs are brought into the US by white drug mules, not immigrants.

Children are not addicted to drugs, yet they go hungry in schools as well as homes. Why are they not provided for?

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

States have proven, as with voting, that they are too prone to corruption to mandate certain aspects of society.

Look at Missouri, where the GOP legislature is attempting to overturn abortion protections passed by popular vote less than a year ago.

Look at GOP States redistricting 5 years early

Of course not, but you can redirect that harm into more productive outlets while limiting the tools available to enact that harm on innocent others.

They do seem willing to do that. After the drone incursions, NATO allies redistributed air and defense resources eastward. France is flying jets over Poland to discourage more, for example.

After the jets in Estonia, Art. 4 has been reactivated, and member countries should convene again this week.

Not necessarily. Turkey shot down a Russian bomber in their airspace during the Syrian Civil War, and things deescalated a bit.

And some drones were already shot down. The escalation to jets is a bit different, and I think a ploy to get a NATO member involved directly.

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

The terms of mutual defense are iron-clad. Otherwise, they wouldn't work at all.

That's why they immediately convened for Art. 4 discussions.

Mainly, whether NATO-related or not, any active engagement will be treated by Russia as it being so.

He wants one shot down.

Like you, I'm critically hopeful about this. Portugal, too, is set to recognize a Palestinian national State today. That and Spain are my two big bets for securing progress after the other EU nations catch up.

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

The international community, catching up with the general public, is trying to revert to the two-state "solution" they have long advocated.

Unfortunately, that fallacy has been proven in the West Bank which, as we speak, is seeing intensified raids and territory loss at the hands of Israeli forces

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

Much of it smacks of a back-handed attempt to garner international recognition of Israel as a Jewish ethno-state.

The long-standing problem is that Israel demands recognition as more than an equal state among peers. It is an ethno-state and, therefore, something greater.

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

Also treated women as second-class, people of color as second-class, the homeless as second-class, anyone who didn't look and think like him was, you guessed it, second-class.

This is such nonsense. If you're scared in Chicago, you're going to be scared in Jacksonville.

These "conservative" talking points are just that: free of any actual thought or substance.

We do have to be licensed and insured to drive, no? Trained and checked in on? There are cameras and patrols to make sure we are careful with our cars.

I believe in the 2nd, I also believe in taking care of people who need help.

Said the same about Roe v. Wade.

Obergfell v. Hodges is already in conservative's mouths and on the board.

Daniel Woods @danwoodswriter.bsky.social · 18d

Conservatives can't say "sex sells" and is fine, but be against free sexual expression and safe sex work.

People are pissed at American Eagle because it isn't American and should know better than to play politics as a company. It got burned like Target and Disney did.

True! Who is keeping them from getting food?
