Marvellous. What rapes of the US people will he ignore, or perhaps even facilitate?

The GOP is perfectly happy to have the government hamstrung and powerless because that what their Russian and Chinese paymasters want.

I was merely being hyperbolic in an opposite direction to minimalism.

Thanks. I was around when they gained public popularity in the early 80s.

Yeah… Israel is “slightly” overreacting. I mean… why bother differentiating innocent civilians from hardened retarded militants?

Palestinians do not equal Hamas.

Australia has been gas-lit by foreign trolls paid by China and Russia.

My mother is 85 and sharp as a tack. She’s a retired biochemist and despite not having a background in law, would make an excellent president sheerly via decent left-wing common sense and compassion.

Logos should now be infinitely zoomable with differing levels of meaning depending on the depth.

It’s a hideous situation. Palestine has been fucked over by Israel for 50 odd years. Jewish people have been fucked over from pillar to post all over Europe for centuries.

In my humble opinion, Israel is, in the last 50 years, more brutally wrong in its behaviour. It’s hard to square that in contemporary times with the history of oppression of Jewish people.

I would’ve hoped that modernity brought rational thought.

Nope. Religion makes retards of too many people.

I genuinely feel for the Palestinians, as they have been trapped in a horrible abusive situation for generations.

How about ‘never get a tattoo’. Full stop.

Mmmm. Gavin, I really think that’s the WRONG decision.

I’m very disappointed in you,

My parents are Boomers and very well thought-out folk. Both scientists and left wing. Generous towards demographic failings on the lower end of financial clout in recognising that society has failed most people and continues to do so.

We were rich in cultural capital but relatively lower middle class in finances.

I’ve developed a rather more strict and harsh view of ‘aspirational’ values when it comes to Veblen Goods and status. My patience with society’s failings are much less generous.

Pre-internet innocence, eh?

Fauci is a seasoned scientist, a trained rational person asked to serve in high public office for the sake of public safety.

Rand Paul is a self-serving, narcissistic, drama-inducing politician who demanded to be in public office to further his own ends.

Who are you going to believe?!?

Gen X here. Reagan was such a productive fraud. Goddam his filthy soul.

I’m just glad that I’m not a flyover state middle aged parochial fool. I mean, I’m fool enough as it is, but worldly enough to steer clear of MAGA shitforbrains-itis.

Except the ‘elections’ DO ‘work’ where they have gerrymandered the shit out of places. And look, they have a majority in the Senate where they can rat-fuck anything that has a whisper of equality, justice, fairness, or PROGRESS towards a nicer, better world.

And why?!?!?

Because not only are home-grown fascists supporting them, but LOTS of dark money from Russia and China are pumping up their campaign finances and social media effluent.

Would he support raising the age of consent in Florida?

How VERY dare you!

I didn’t come here to be subjected to your disgusting kneejerkaphobia.

He’s just a puppet for the rest of them. They told him to do it, so he did. Now they are making a big fake fuss.
