Iran has been on high alert after Israel said it would respond to an Iranian attack against it on Saturday night
Downvoting an overly simplistic take should not be discouraged. I don’t think bothsidesarethesame is fair on Democrats who want support for Ukraine to go through.
Usually when I read “both sides are the same”, it’s a blue conservative like you trying to make people critical of the Democratic party seem unreasonable.
Both sides are capitalist and conservative, but there are differences for sure. Dont you want more differences?
If you wanna really shut up those people bitching from the sidelines, the best way to do so is to put them in the game! Force them to show us how to do things since it’s so easy and they have it all figured out.
Switching away from first past the post voting allows people to vote for who represents them best while still counting their vote against those they dont want to win. Just search for videos on FPTP voting if you want an explanation on how and why the spoiler effect exists.
Electoral reform is possible in each individual state (for now), we dont need federal reform! Maine and Alaska have already passed electoral reform.
Republicans are moving to make alternative electoral systems illegal in their states. Why would you want to use the same voting system republicans prefer?
More political parties means a higher percentage of the population is represented by their choices in the voting booth. More people involved in the electoral process, more people engaged.
Its a win win win all around for not just the people, but also for the democratic party. More people voting means more democratic votes. The numbers dont lie. So what’s the hold up blue states? Electoral reform needs to be the number one priority for every democrat. No more waiting.
Consider starting a campaign to change how we vote in your own state! Force our representatives to compete with fresh outside ideas. We deserve the best representation, not excuses.
Biden is the number on recipient of Israeli campaign contributions.
Bothsidesarethesame is actually the case here. Bidens throwing the election in because he refuses to budge on his foreign policy positions. He’s a neocon. Its like people apologizing for Biden have forgotten the previous 20 years of US history.
If Biden wants to be different, he actually has to be different.
He has supported Ukraine, unlike the previous president who wanted to give the country to Russia. How much difference should there be?
Ah yes, the apologists who insult that Biden needs to be supported blindly because the alternative is worse.
This is your war too, right along with Biden.
The alternative isn’t just worse, it could destroy American democracy, NATO and more. I don’t think you quite realize what’s at stake here.
Bruh, what you don’t seem to be fucking noticing, is that the extant option is doing all of the above.
Your blind support of Joe Biden is an endorsement of the ongoing genocide in Gaza, and signals approval of Israels widening of the conflict to include Iran and Syria.
Yesterday Biden vetoed Palestinines recognition by the UN. Not Trump. Biden.
Bid n is bad enough that Trump is a non factor at this point and you are arguing in favor of both genocide and a regional war in the middle east.
Your the one who don’t seem to realize what’s at stake.
Who have the Ukrainian military the first lethal weapons like the Javalin?
My dude the training and arming of Ukraine by NATO started happening before Trump came into office.
Trump tried blocking the Javelins in 2018. He wasn’t for it. He was convinced ultimately to follow longstanding US foreign policy that started before he got there.
Yes he approved it. 1 scenario where he got out of the way. Neat.
What’s his stance been since? And before?
Yes he did and Ukraine has not forgotten. While you try to gaslight, Ukraine has reminded people that Trump allowed them to defend themselves.
What has Trump said?
https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/19/ukraine-war-briefing-donald-trump-says-survival-of-ukraine-important-to-the-us
Let me get this straight.
After the Republican Party, largely led by Trump, have stymied aid to Ukraine and generally been pro Russia.
The motherfucker was for all intents and purposes outed as a Russian asset during congressional hearings.
Now Trump makes a politically pragmatic statement (backed up by no action or calls for his party to turn and support Ukraine) and suddenly we’re supposed to think he’s on their side?
Neuromancer you have got to be one of the dumbest motherfuckers to exist if you think you’re fooling anyone.
Yeah… okay, and threatened to withdraw support unless he helped him politically. Really lovely.
Hm. Really sounds like support there eh.
The US governmenrment policy is ukraine is a corrupt country. That’s why Biden did what he did. Why Obama Wouldn’t sell weapons at all and why we’ve excluded many weapons to transfer.
That wasn’t unique to the Trump administration.
“As everyone agrees, Ukrainian Survival and Strength should be much more important to Europe than to us, but it is also important to us! GET MOVING EUROPE!”
Don’t worry. EU institutions without all the countries gave more than USA to Ukraine. If you additionally consider the small EU countries, it’s also a lot. So don’t worry. EU gives enormous support, even though USA is the largest donor as a single country.
