Re: The Biden era
I don't know if Israel are the good guys, but Hamas sure as hell are not.

Re: The Biden era
Any bombings of civilians kind of rules you out as "good guys", so... The only people who deserve any sort of support are the civilians being caught up in this.

Re: The Biden era
Seems like Hamas' plan is to use Wokeness to turn the left against Israel. They cannot hope to defeat them with America's backing, but take that four billion away and maybe there's a more even fight.
On the Israeli side ... why should they bother to negotiate with the Palestinians? I'm sure the average Palestinian citizen is a good person who wants nothing more than equality, but their government has publicly stated that they don't want a two-state system, they want it all. I dunno if the region could unite together against the Jews anymore, not after America fucked it up so much, but that's gotta be the endgame. In hindsight, Israel should have been placed somewhere else (like cutting out a part of Germany for example), but the people there should have a right to defend themselves. It's a sticky situation with shitty people in charge on both sides. I wouldn't expect anything less than Israel shoving all Palestinians out of its territory and then building a wall around their entire country. And Lebanon will pay for it!

Re: The Biden era
Even if they accepted a 2 state solution them and Israel would probably still be killing each other on the regular (splitting Jerusalem in half can't end well), plus the new Palestine would just be a non-democracy anyways like the other Arab countries and in a country that can't survive on its own. An idea i thought of is giving Palestine to Jordan/Egypt but it sounds like neither are interested plus that's not really what Palestine wants.

Re: The Biden era
Favoring the weak over the strong in nearly every situation is probably one of the best ways to describe the woke ideology

Re: The Biden era
Trying to think of a good subtitle for the Biden Era. I really liked the Awkward Mix of Fascism and Libertarianism for Trump (which is even more true as his term progressed and into today). I am either thinking Information Wars Vs Culture Wars or Dawn of the New Establishment as I feel the Republicans have become the new counter culture

Re: The Biden era
The correct view on Israel Palestine is Anti Hamas, pro Israel’s right to defend itself. Pro Israel vs Palestine is a false dichotomy. There is no reason to be either.

Re: The Biden era: The Establishment Strikes Back
I definitely think the Democrats and a lot of the ideology they push has become the new cultural norm, despite much of our country, particularly on labor reform is extremely right wing. Culturally, we do seem very progressive.
I think I like the title Shack

Re: The Biden era: The Establishment Strikes Back
How about Biden Era: The guy who does not say things like “the pandemic is a hoax” and “nazis are very fine people”?
The establishment strikes back would imply that the only problem of the previous administration was that they were anti-establishment, rather than being anti-life.
Also, breaking news, it was apparently Trump himself who used campaign funds to stop the probe into Spygate. No wonder Tom Brady loves him so much! Does their villainy know no end?

He said neither thing lol. And it’s rich when the party that supports the murder of a million babies a year is the one that is so pro life.

Re: The Biden era: The Establishment Strikes Back
From his inauguration to May 24 2021, Biden has killed 180,584 Americans with Covid-19 under his watch, and this is with vaccines available. By comparison, under Trump, Covid death tolls only exceeded 100,000 from May 28, 2020 https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2020 ... -toll.html and we know that Covid was in the US already by January 2020, if not earlier.

That might be your funniest post ever, Alex. Or you got it from something MTG said, perhaps. Hard to know the difference.

Re: The Biden era: The Establishment Strikes Back
Biden and Trump actually went to each hospital and nursed all individuals to death. I wish when I'm 70+ I have this strength and stamina.

This is like blaming the firefighters for 9/11. His post is satire referencing how democrats kept saying “Trump has the blood of 400k Americans on his hands! It’s all his fault they died!” Even though Trump was the first person to recognize the coronavirus as a threat to America despite the WHO covering up for the CCP with obvious lies like “it doesn’t spread person to person” and “it’s less deadly than the flu”. He tried to ban Travel from China in January and was denounced by all prominent media outlets as racist and xenophobic. Subsequently criticizing the democrats for blowing the whole thing out of proportion is not the same thing as claiming it’s a “hoax”.
