it might be worse in terms of brutality against police.

Oh noooo…anyway

Low effort, brain dead take

This fight is about us taking from the rich, not from each other.

Beautiful stated, cutting right to the heart of the matter.

I’m baitin’

Us economy is driven by the military industrial complex. Taxpayer funded defense “aid” is given to countries, only for them to turn around and buy american weapons with said aid, thus funneling the money into private pockets. Legislature “pork” was/is notorious for kickbacks to local manufacturing plants for various military equipment. The entire scheme of “global defense” that the US has pushed over the last 70 years has been driven by the desire to monopolize military production and sales on a global scale. Sanctions are imposed on countries which otherwise agree ideologically with what the US professes are its ideals because those countries purchase arms from the US competitors, while notably hostile countries like Saudia Arabia are propped up bc they are good for business. Israel aid is given to be spent on US arms. The US doesn’t give a shit how countries use their arms, as long as they’re buying. Without the military industrial complex, much of the domestic economy would likewise grind to a halt. Hell, the US military is the biggest domestic employer. The system is simply not set up for a massive paradigm shift like that, though imo it’s going to have to happen eventually because the current, unsustainable system is reaching it’s last leg and starting to topple over.

Do you get off on having the absolute worst takes on every single thread, or are you legitimately that stupid?

Are the caravans in the room with us right now?

So who in the Democratic party gets to play kingmaker?

The same party insiders who’ve played kingmaker during the last two primaries

Love the texture added by layering the red onto the blue background instead of the other way around. Even more so the use of directionally of brush to create a sense of dynamic movement and momentum, and the fact that you worked outsode in so the eye is drawn texturally in that direction through the layering

To add to this, on Lemmy I often find myself both agreeing and disagreeing with a user depending on the topic and community. It adds a layer of additional context and nuance to that user. If I was just to follow the user vs. community, however, I may get the impression that the user is not worth following if I happen to run across them on a topic that we have disagreements on.

Not meeting with Biden =/= Voting for Trump
