He also did NOT stop family separations. That’s bogus propaganda. He’s continued and worsened them.

And his beef with Texas is not that Texas wants to hurt immigrants and Genocide Joe wants to protect them; it’s literally a competition between Texas and the feds on who gets to have supreme authority in their sadistic immigrant abuse. I sometimes joke that they’ll probably settle their differences by having an immigrant murdering competition and go home at the end of the day to back claps and a round of drinks, no matter the outcome.

Certain brands of liberal bend over fucking backwards to distort reality in order to defend their favorite fascist. Gross. Don’t step in that.

One of the two fascists is in the process of conducting the most acute genocide since the Holocaust. Not a hypothetical, predicted genocide, but a real one, unfolding in front of our very eyes in real time. There’s not a chance in hell I’m not voting against him. If donkey fans really want to try to make me choose between the candidates on the two mainstream liberal mono-party ballot lines, they’re not going to like the one I wind up voting for. I guess they should be happy I’ve got socialist candidates I can put my check mark next to instead.

Anyway, that’s if I’m not in jail or stripped of my voting rights on election day in retaliation for direct action that opposes that genocide. Back into the streets!

Definitely! If you want nutritional food, focus on the stuff that’s really cheap and easy to grow and makes the best use of land anyway, whether you’re doing it or consuming it after other people have done so: fresh veggies. Greens, squashes, tomatoes, various tubers, etc. (varies depending on your region, of course).

I was just talking about the focus on protein. It is absolutely not the thing to worry about if you’re interested in “nutritious”. You’re being completely counter-productive if you do that. It leads opposite to the goal you just described.

Just grow and eat veggies and grains. If you’re worried about protein, you’re worried about the wrong thing (you should instead be worried about getting vitamins, minerals, and a generally varied diet). Everything that made people worried about protein on vegetarian or vegan diets is based on a study purposefully misinterpreted by the meat-and-dairy industry, where that misinterpretation was parroted for decades and disowned by the original author of the study. Just because you can fulfill the same protein profile as meat using plant proteins doesn’t mean you need to. The human body evolved to allow us to eat meat opportunistically, not to require it.

Unless you’re on an all-fruit diet, you’re getting enough protein if you’re getting enough calories (literally no matter your exercise regimen). And if you’re not getting enough calories, you’re starving and protein is one of the last of your concerns anyway.

Thanks!

You might like almond or cashew milk. They (ironically) have less of the nutty aftertaste. And IMO just always stick to unsweetened (or minimally sweetened) choices of all of them.

Seriously. I love black-bean patties, for example. Who needs that shit to actually taste like meat?

Good recipe(s)?

No. I agree that liberal “democracy” is a sham. But the so-called “ratchet effect” is a useless meme. Democrats push us into reactionary politics too; they don’t just “keep us from going left”. The current head of the Democratic Party, occupying the most powerful political position in the world—more powerful than any king throughout the history of human kind—is the one of the most devout supporters of zionist genocide you’ll find, chose to crush the rialroad strike, largely architected our system of mass incarceration and mass surveillance (he boasts of having authored the Patriot Act, and he actually pushed Ronald Reagan to go harder on the “Drug War” than the latter was inclined to do on his own), led the charge on indebting generations of college students, and is now on the brink of starting WW3 in the Middle East (after risking it in Ukraine).

Genocide is a non-starter, period. It is not, and can never seriously be construed as, harm reduction. Don’t vote for fascists. Those actively enabling genocide against Palestine are fascists. Thankfully, there’s no debating the genocide now if you have any honesty whatsoever. Liberals advocating for voting for genocidal candidates of either/any party can fuck right off and [redacted].

“Just put up with the fascists promoting genocide. You have no place here if you won’t.” Cool, cool. “Sharing views” and all. 👍

Yeah, I’m done dealing with anyone with that instant reaction. Too many years of that shit on Reddit and the like. I don’t give a shit who thinks that means I’m “thin-skinned”. I’m just done with that shit. Bubble me up, cause I get enough liberal nonsense on the news and in meatworld interactions to know damned well what they think, and don’t need more of the same absolutely everywhere I go. This is allegedly an anarchist community on a punk-themed instance. If this is the kind of shit I have to put up with even here, while being shamed by other instance users even, then I guess I’m done dealing with the fucking Internet. There’s no interesting place to actually participate at this point.

You should maybe read the article. And watch the linked video.

But I don’t really care. Liberals who support genocide are a dime a dozen and never really worth conversing with. Blocked.

I mean, we’ll never do it under capitalism, Gore. So you good with dismantling capitalism?

(Crickets, I’m sure.)

Hell yeah! Well done!

Why do these supposed Bezos masks have hair on them, though? Heh.

Nah, dude. There’s plenty to disagree with in the parts of this message and your other reply down below where you try to imply modern nuclear weapons are clean and pose little to no risk beyond that of conventional weapons. Gaslight all you like, but your words are right there for all to see (unless suddenly they gain an edit timestamp after that of this comment, of course…).

This is a terrible take by someone who has heard plenty of propaganda by the arms industry but knows absolutely nothing about physics. Many of the products of the primary and even secondary nuclear reactions from a nuclear warhead are themselves radioactive and have long enough half-lives to do tons of damage in both the short and long terms. Whether or not there is radioactive material spread around is not simply a question of whether some of the original fuel remains unspent.

If all you’re doing is spreading war propaganda, log off and go rethink your life.

EDIT: Folks, start here and read other materials by the Union of Concerned Scientists. Don’t let this bullshit whitewashing of the dangers of nuclear weapons, their use, and their testing go unaddressed. And speak up against this kind of propaganda showing up in our communities—especially leftist ones.

formerly genecided ethnicities…

Well, except it’s not Jews doing it. It’s Zionists.

Nice. I gotta wonder why a flying schoolbus which lands in meadows needs a pop-out “kids loading/unloading; do not pass” stop sign on the side, though. LOL. 😉

Only thing I’m going to (have to, unfortunately) buy today is a round in a couple dryers at the laundromat, because I’ve put it off too long already and the clothes line is currently a no-go due to weather. sigh
