President Biden on Monday night issued a plea for supporters to donate to his campaign in the wake of former President Trump’s victory in Iowa.

“Looks like Donald Trump just won Iowa. He’s the clear front runner on the other side at this point,” Biden wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

“But here’s the thing: this election was always going to be you and me vs. extreme MAGA Republicans. It was true yesterday and it’ll be true tomorrow,” Biden added, posting a link to a fundraising page.

Yes, Israel's Palestine occupation and extrajudicial civilian execution policy has been consistent since the founding of Israel.

so either you're a complete idiot, or refusing to discuss within the constraints of reality....
either way, completely pointless to talk to.

p.s. have you ever heard the term ceasefire?
jesus fucking christ, no it has NOT been consistent and yes it has escalated QUITE A FUCKING LOT LATELY!!!

do you really not fucking get that?

it's not the only time, but lately it's been dramatically more violent than as of recently.

it's not about name calling, are you being deliberately obtuse?!!?

Given your constant errors and misjudgments about the history of Israel, Palestine, and US involvement therein, you should give up.

Or, suggestion: read.

I'm being deliberate.

The success of trump is about name-calling, you can't see that because name-calling deeply influences your perceptions, saddling you with a blind spot.

You do remember that you brought up how important his name calling is, I assume? If not, look up.

You said "touch grass".

Then you scurried through my comment history replying to all of my comments in other communities.

I agree that you should touch grass.

That's exactly what you said. You really are confused,, aren't you?

[-] xor@sh.itjust.works -2 points 10 months ago

[-] SaltySalamander@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

Oh yes, anyone who doesn't agree with you is automatically a bot. The hallmark of someone without an actual argument.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
