You seem to be arguing with me, but I agree with almost everything you say. In particular stuff like:

Why don’t we try that with a leftist position? “Institute single payer Healthcare so every citizen has access to healthcare scot free or else we’re going to overthrow the government?”

Corporate merger? How about we start with nationalize both companies, guillotine the executives, and hand it all over to unions?

We shouldn't compromise on getting rid of coal, but we should make sure the people and communities affected are taken care of in the aftermath. Or should have, anyway, that ship has basically sailed. It's the same neoliberal psychopathy that turned the post-industrial northeast and midwest into a war zone in the 60s-80s.

Yeah, I'd love to reinstate the CCC & Youth Corps as permanent jobs programs, including all the arts funding, but that ain't happening. Guess we'll just have to get shot by Proud Boys instead.

Israel has great importance to US imperial interests. If you're making a moral argument, there's no comparison between Ukraine and Israel, but from a strategic/imperial perspective, well, still different, but there's solid justification in both cases.

Biden specifically said he would not promise to serve one term.

I don't know that people really consider Floyd a hero... A martyr, maybe. He wasn't fighting for anything except his own life, and it's enough of a crime that it was taken away from him for allegedly using a fake $20 bill. Whatever kind of symbolic figure he is, is because of things that were done to him, not things that he did himself. The situation didn't even warrant his arrest, but Thomas Lane walked up behind him sitting in his car and tapped on his window WITH A FUCKING GUN. Is that what they're teaching in police gun safety classes? At no point did any one of those absolute shitbirds do a single thing right in their interaction with Floyd.

Look, AIPAC sucks but do you guys really think we wouldn't be dumping weapons into the middle east if it weren't for the Israel lobby? Like the US government doesn't have its own reasons for doing so?

[-] SwampYankee@mander.xyz 2 points 11 months ago

As it turns out, more Americans are engaged in lobbying the US government than Israelis. Go figure.

You're missing the important point which is that when women sell their bodies it's icky. Human trafficking only matters if it's for icky reasons.

It's bad because if your goal is peace, it's a non-starter. No moral judgement about either side, that's just how it is. Maybe if we get peace through a two-state solution, 100 years from now there might be a chance for unification, but right now the wounds are too deep.

Probably, I just haven't gotten annoyed enough about it to try yet.
