Without question: email has got to still be the most universally-used platform across generations and levels of technical engagement.

Oh darling, no. I’m sorry. No they aren’t. Not once the chips are down and the fascists are in charge. They will fold because they have assets to protect.

Gotta disagree. Ruling class don’t need to be far-right to be bad news. They all have too much to lose and historically support (or at least fall in line) with fascism when it seems to be on the horizon. We see some corporations already lining up to play even nicer with Trump admin than last time.

Yeah guilty as charged on this one lol.

An overwhelming number of people here, if my Discover feed is to be believed, are people who would LOOOOVE the NYT’s editorial position. Unsurprising.

I don’t know if he believed it or if he simply saw it as his best shot. Maybe it was naïve to assume the DNC establishment wouldn’t sabotage him, but it’s a naïveté that many many people could be accused of, especially at the time.

To be fair, they were busy doing their own war crimes.

I was just called a tankie for the first time in my life for saying Iranian ‘imperialism’ pales in comparison to the US. The Overton window is smaller and more centrist here, and I think discussion is genuinely worse for it. There’s an intense territoriality in defense of centrist warhawk orthodoxy.

What a maniac lol

You’re a very hostile person on here. It’s unbecoming of the vibe people pretend exists on BlueSky. Thank you for checking out my posts, though. The Jan 6th one is a joke.

You have jumped to an immense amount of odd conclusions and I intend to ignore you going forward lol

But they’ll be OUR guys

When this pivoted to accuse Russia and Iran of imperial overreach I chuckled in disbelief. America absolutely takes the cake. To accuse Iran of this and omit the U.S. efforts in the region is comical. Even if the US-backed group wins, that usually fails long-term.

I’m not sure just how meaningless it is. It further erodes any lingering argument that the DNC is the un-Trump party with a better anti-corruption position. This is an immensely Trump thing to do.

A real enthusiast of philanthropy! Unfortunately not.

Good idea. Donated straight to my favourite local charity. Thanks!
