Israel wants to be a Jewish state, so secular humanism wouldn’t be a compatible policy they’d agree to.

I don’t think there is a two state solution because of how intertwined the West Bank is.

I don’t think there is a one state solution because of how much all the sides hate eachother.

The whole area is a festering wound on the face of our common humanity. We need to administer antibiotic and depose the leaders who spread hate in the area from within and from the outside like Schumer here. “They don’t believe in the Torah”, why should any book have final say?

Coors is a wholly American subsidiary of the Canadian-American multinational Molson-Coors

Get your facts straight before you post reactionary crap.

Make burningman into burning MAN!

I love that when Trump talks all the conservatives come out of the woodwork to tell us “what he REALLY meant” even though his words are plainly obvious to everyone.

Oh maybe you can let me know how Musk did a perfectly normal gesture, or maybe it’s because he’s autistic so Nazi salutes are cool now.

Maybe you can tell me about how he’s doing big brain stewardship of taxpayer dollars and optimizing government efficiency and not butchering government institutions with a chainsaw so they can give themselves tax breaks.

God you conservatives are just so gosh darned smart. Bless your hearts.

Here is the clip. https://www.c-span.org/clip/public-affairs-event/user-clip-trump-admits-they-rigged-the-election/5150039

That’s fair. It’s pretty ironic that HBC initially sucked all the value from native communities, then after it was sold to American shareholders they used it to suck any remaining value from Canadian consumers and now it’s completely worthless.

Those gift card purchases are going to be a real death knell.

Oh it’s true.

Although more people disapprove than approve (a recent phenomenon), 46-48% of the American public APPROVE of his current actions.

It’s literally BAFFLING.

The Republicans control both houses. If they can’t get a CR passed by themselves, they need to make significant compromises to pass a bipartisan bill, which they haven’t done. That’s basic politics and it’s been the case for hundreds of years.

Acting like this is the Democrats fault is nonsense. If the government can’t pay the bills the people of the country need to finally see the incompetence and disdain for the American people that this administration has.

As for the public sector workers, if you think this will save them you’re completely mistaken. This buys them weeks or a couple of months at most. Maybe a government shut down will remind the people what public servants do for them so they can start opposing this butchery of the government.

Teslas used to account for more than half of all electric cars sold in many countries. The fact that fell to 3% in Germany is a pretty significant drop. Here’s hoping we get to 0% in 2026.

I think it’s a beautiful irony that Musk sells luxury electric cars but has gone all in on far-right ideology where the supporters are big fans of non-luxury fossil fuel cars. There is a very real possibility the company could be bankrupted in these 4 years as long as we all hold a grudge and refuse to forgive him.

It’s almost half the country though, he’s got like 46% of people approve of what he’s doing. I guess they’re just less in your face about it.

Narrator: it was legal in state 1

That’s a problem we have globally. Although it might seem like Trump style populism vs Canadian neo-liberalism(with all it’s pros and cons), we’re both purple. You guys just have a bit more right wing red in the dye mix. It’s plausible that Canada elects our own Trump then we can both be stupid.

The only ideology that has a chance at stopping the populist wave is Sanders style social democracy because it addresses the same core issue of wealth disparity. But it doesn’t look like anyone is electing that anytime soon.

I think we’re running out the possibility that all the cars caught fire at the same time too early!

Russia is trying Israel’s moves. Hospitals and journalist families next!

Dude that makes no sense at all. He wants to depreciate the dollar by putting on tariffs, an action you yourself admit depreciates all OTHER currencies, thereby increasing the value of the dollar?

Then after that he’ll “negotiate” to have the other countries to appreciate their currencies? By buying US goods and companies?? Both of those things appreciate the US dollar. China has been selling their goods to the US (something which should appreciate their currency) without appreciating their currency by buying property and companies in the US so they never have to use the US dollar to buy their own currency. This increases the value of the dollar while decreasing demands for the Chinese currency. This has been widely seen as unfair currency manipulation by China.

Things that increase demand for US dollars such as buying US goods and investing in the US APPRECIATE the value of of the US dollar. I haven’t read the article yet, but I hope your summary is incorrect, because Varoufakis is generally a very intelligent left wing thinker and I would be surprised to see this kind of gaffe in basic economics.

Edit: here is a link to the article since the one above didn’t work for me.

While tariffs would work against Trump’s plan (by deppreciating foreign currencies) they give Trump revenue he can spend with congressional approval. Then for the countries that make a deal he’ll either force them to appreciate their currencies by swapping US dollars for their own currency (to depreciate the dollar), OR make them buy very long term US bonds (stabilizing the US debt markets) and buying US weapons (diluting the cost of US military R&D). Trump hopes this lets him depreciate the dollar while keeping it as a reserve currency (having his cake and eating it too).

Turns out violence is the answer a lot of the times. Why not do a 4 year training camp at the world’s largest and best funded violence delivery machine ever created and learn a few tips.

We could just pass a law that says any car with more than 10 fatalities per 100k units is unsafe and has to be recalled and refunded. No car has come even close. It’s 17 times worse than a Ford Pinto.

This is YOUR post about how Zelenskyy wants peace and Trump and Russia are being a massive piece of shit. I’m AGREEING with you. Why are you being so hostile??
