Stock prices are a reactionary and misleading indicator about the efficacy of any given policy, and should certainly be ignored when evaluating the actual effect a tariff has.
Good. Now that we are here, I hope trump causes the complete fall of American Capitalism along with American world influence. We haven’t been worthy of our position since the late 40’s, if we ever were.
That university had no business banning those words and ideally the people who came up with the banned words would be guillotined. Because if you don’t nip thought policing in the bud, you end up with what the current administration is doing in an official capacity. Then the next step is the subject of various over referenced books and dystopian fictional stories except real.
And the conservatives scaremongering about this are definitely good faith actors who aren’t just scaremongering and harassing a tiny minority of trans athletes who do not in fact represent some massive social problem that requires national level obsession with targeting and identifying trans people to harass, with Gavin Newsom hanging around with a fascist saying “yassss besty” as he literally directly refers to a specific trans athlete to target and harass them.
Agreed. But remember Newsome and California in general have never been particularly “left” leaning even in the American sense. Newsome himself has always been extremely “pro-business,” and other then some PR stunts he did for the (rich) gay community like 20+ years ago, he’s been pretty indistinguishable from Arnold Schwarzenegger. Even a very visible, and popular voter initiative like High-Speed rail has gotten nothing by lip-service which is why it will never be anymore then a pipedream as long as people like him are in charge of the California Democratic party.
There is no legitimate debate. It’s scaremongering.
We use sex as a proxy for athletic potential in sports in order to keep things fair for women and men. Otherwise women’s sports wouldn’t exist at all because it’s a biological fact that male athletes are absolutely stronger/faster/better at basically any sport. No whatever corner case you throw out has no bearing on the above fact.
The mainstream existence of trans-athletes shows that we need a different way to create competitive leagues (just sex isn’t sufficient) so that trans-athletes can be included, but no one has an agreed upon solution for that yet.
I think it’s important to remember that it’s not a decision for governments to make
Not really true since things like Title IX exist.
Some of them did get primary challengers, but the primary process is broken by design so that real primary’s rarely are able to happen at all. The amount of effort to successfully primary an incumbant is hugely imbalanced compared to just being the incumbent that if the incumbent expends the barest effort, they are all but certain to maintain their seat in most single-party states.
Why can’t the problems with the US be self-inflicted in your world-view?
It’s obviously not popularity that she is worried about be cause support for universal healthcare is bi-partisian and consistently polls extremely well, but you bet your ass this representative would find some reason to oppose it if it was ever in danger of passing.
If all the milk in my fridge is spoiled, I throw it out. Maybe try that?
How much support did Alexandria Ocasio-cortez get from the DNC when she was running in the 2018 primary? Would you say it was more, less or the same as Joe Crowley?
AHAHAHAHA. Of course liberals would do that.
I don’t think it’s incompetence. After-all they have successful defended the corporate duopoly for at least 50 years, probably longer. Sure there are some upstarts, but the machinations of the party ensure those people never get to actually threaten the status quo. Plus they make good sound-bytes so that the democrats can talk about how they are “fighting,” in unspecific ways.
Sounds like US democracy with the US voting system is deeply flawed and the only moral action is to no longer engage with it. Otherwise you are expected to choose between different approaches to an ongoing genocide.
The Democrats position on Israel is abhorrent, but I think it had very little to do with their electoral losses. When you talk about how during your 4-years in the presidency, that everything is the best it’s ever been yet material conditions do not reflect that, I don’t see how you can expect to defend the status quo against anyone.
Add in the debacle of having a public primary, then changing the candidate afterwards, shows voters that you aren’t even pretending to follow “the rules” for a democratic process, even if you are totally in the clear legally.
It’s bad optics, and it tells voters that you don’t really care and can’t be trusted.
Really strange how some kind of shadowy cabal of people took umbrage to a tweet about Palestine. I wonder who would do that?
Those dastardly republican’s, they can’t keep getting away with this!
What’s that another 600million to Israel for west bank security, absolutely!
Partitioning is one of those obsolete Unixisms that is best left in the 90s. Only exception is dual booting, but even there partitioning isn’t really very important anymore
