I am more shocked by people supporting Biden’s action than the action itself

why should some have nukes and others not?

Were they given divine mandate ? are they superior human beings ? explain !!

easy, just compare to 5 years ago instead of year-on-year, and that will give you a 24 % inflation.

Now tell me how can you make life affordable again ? increasing wages by 25 % all at once or deflation at 15 % or so? or an all out civil war or something ?

This lie that inflation can only go up without wages keeping up is what the governing class helped by their paid for economists use to keep the working docile until shit hits the fans.

Russia would have never signed on to that. Their whole argument about Ukraine is the constant advancement of NATO territories towards its border.

This is like saying that Germany has the right to keep the American nukes stationed on its soil if the US was to ever leaver Germany.

The soviet bombs were built, operated and guarded by a Russian department of the Russian Republic member of the Soviet union. what Ukraine signed on was a smooth repatriation of those nukes back to Russian. there is no real way Ukraine could have confiscated them even if they tried.

Every country should have the freedom to build their own nukes while we are at it.

The only country who dared used their bombs, and twice, is the US, and did it while there was no need for it. so I don’t see how some countries are taking the moral high ground about who should and shouldn’t have nukes, it is mostly about about who should and should impose their imperialism with the help of nukes.

By we he means, them and their wealthy friends, and the celebrities they paraded during the last campaign. Struggling people can eat dirt.

The dems were never left wing in international standards. otherwise you would already have had universal health care.

Yes, you might find it stupid or illogical, but they (trump , elmo) are seen as smart and successful, and they lived under better circumstances in the last Trump term.

That’s democracy, everyone has a say, whether their opinions or feelings are right or wrong. but instead of the democrats putting the work to meet these people they have chosen to belittle them. and that has cost them so far the Presidency and the Senate.

Don’t care really! I don’t believe in heroism. He didn’t deserve to Die in a prison though.

The economic struggle and inflation only fell on people under Biden’s presidency and vastly after Ukraine war. what people live under is what matters. not that a trump presidency will alleviate this. but you shouldn’t expect people to reelect the same team that choose to extend a war in Ukraine and send 100 billion to Ukraine while their own are struggling.

You don’t win an election just with vibes.

Kamala didn’t bring as much substance as what the left electorate was expecting from her, and couldn’t differentiate herself from Biden and the current term she is serving under. The whole democratic party went under because all they promise is vibes compared the current economical struggles people are facing.

Every one and their grandma knows that what people mean by the economy is their own financial well being and not the ability of billionaires and capitalist class on racking up more billions. the rest is pedantry.

largely the fault of the people who were holding out voting for the Democrats because they hadn’t done enough to fix everything up,

I don’t know how someone can blame voters for advancing their interests if their finances are in the red. and are holding their vote in protest of the democrats.

I don’t know how are the discussions on beehaw but over the rest of lemmy, it feels exactly the same as on reddit: well off Americans blaming the struggling other half for turning their backs on the Democrats, it isn’t Just Harris who didn’t deliver, it is the whole fucking party. Liberals won’t understand the struggle of people living paycheck to paycheck. and how they are not entitled to their vote if they let the neo-Liberal system fuck with the struggling class.

Mozilla keeps digging Firefox’s grave, and seeing how other opensource projects like Gimp struggle to even keep up with their own release schedule and very slow development rate. I fear we will be left with only chrome to use.

Democrats are completely out of touch. them expecting voters putting other issues on top of them making ends meets and food on the table (like mocking Vance’s egg prices ), all the while most polls showing the economy is the biggest concern with 38 % of all voters, is just simply delusional

And they have lost both the popular and electoral college vote. meaning the real problem here is them.

And don’t get me started on the propaganda of Iowa’s early voters polls showing a Kamala landslide just 2 days before election day. If you live in a left wing bubble and believe this shit, than this should be a hard smack back into reality.

They removed russian maintainers that are associated with sanctioned companies

Your are voluntarily spreading fake news and you are getting upvoted for that !

They have removed every person they suspected to be russian or have a russian “.ru” domain name in their email from the maintainers list.

This is unbearable, Lemmy, reddit and other left leaning social medias have become unbearable around election seasons, Liberals copying right wing tactics is like eating your own shit. and it is disgusting.

I get the panic, but it is making you just as brain dead as the other camp. hopefully things will dial down past election day.

The down vote count is proof this is the demographics that pretends they are the side that cares about human rights and the death of innocent civilians but in reality it is all theatrics and sanctimony. They haven’t moved a finger to fight against the injustice or protest against their own governments. but when those who truly care and can’t in any circumstances vote for both parties involved in genocide. they clutch their pearls and lecture them about how the party that is actually involved in genocide is the right answer against another party who will be just as involved in genocide. because brown people’s death is meeeh .

I wasn’t referring to racism. Race and Nationality are almost the same thing, people can’t chose in what community they were born in. and not everyone has the means to move.
