No AIPAC funded Democrat has endorsed him. Including many prominent voices in the party.

Transgenderism has a long precolonial history in India. Westerners have been heavily propagandized into thinking they are the origin story of progressivism (mostly colonial propoganda to justify genocide) when the truth is history is much less linear and much more complex than they are made to think it is.

I'm not suprised that the propoganda exists. But I am in awe when the worldview it promotes is still held by many today. Perhaps the consequence of having a wholly inadequate education system.

Same story. One year ago. That and stopping drinking are some of the best choices I've made in a long time.

I still use reddit occasionally for its smallest communities where I know I'm still interacting with humans. I assume the top posts are all bot posts with bots flaming bots in the comments. Everyone's time is worth more than that.

That's great that AIPAC had a backup plan

Cerrainly not war on this scale.

WW1 was trenches and mustard gas.

Now world leaders can nuke an Arby's an easy as they can order Arby's on Doordash.

That's gotta create an underlying sense of "well, we have it, why not use it?"

The recent Israel-Iran conflict is a perfect example of this. The initial attack accomplished nothing (set their nuclear program back by what, months?) and the response was equally meaningless.

Ro Khanna, Hakeem Jeffries and of course Nancy Pelosi.

They're acting as close to a controlled opposition as ever before.

When you're backed by AIPAC, you don't have to ever give up.

Well, modern day eurocentrists are weird people.

Interestingly eurocentrists often refer to Alexander the Great as taking over "the world" even though he only took over Europe and the Middle East (which is what they saw as "the world" at the time). His troops abandoned him almost immediately upon entering what is now modern day Punjab (Pakistan/India).

Glad you have a resource to refute this colonial era drivel / brain rot.
