    Cows are smarter than they look. Long ago I worked in a dairy operation and they would do things to fuck with you… like if you weren’t super careful in a milking stall they’d casually lean to one side (“oopsie! my bad”) to squish you. Or let the poop rip at just the right moment.

    I don’t blame them one bit.


  • Absolutely, but if you were really interested in facts this information is not hard to find once you stop watching cable news…… I doubt you’ll read any of it but here is a random google search….

    Your snark, arrogance and cynicism are unwarranted and inappropriate.

    But I do appreciate your providing some info - I was genuinely curious and didn’t quite know where to find this evidence - initial searches did not turn up the kind of “overwhelming evidence” you claimed existed. I’m not for a second disputing the USA’s involvement in coup attempts or regime change in general - I think this is quite adequately documented. But your claim was that there is “…overwhelming evidence Blinken has supported multiple coup attempts” but the best you can do is to essentially say he’s guilty of this personally because he has worked for the US government.

    That’s honestly pretty weak.








  • My biggest concern are the people who won’t vote for her based on her gender or race.

    Agree with you broadly. Yet… this type of concern is exactly why we end up with candidates like Biden. I say at this point pedal to the metal, let’s go all in and make it stick. For me she’s progressive enough given that no electable candidate will be as progressive as I’d like.

    There is legitimate criticism which is substantive and specific. And then there is the “I don’t know what it is, but there’s something about her I just don’t like” which invariably and (to me at least) is quite obviously a gut reaction against strong-minded, intelligent and bold women.

    Hillary Clinton got both. I’ve yet to see any substantive criticism of Harris… it’s all been in the latter vein. Like literally “she’s just not likable”.







  • “Why do you care about the Gaza’s genocide” is telling on yourself

    Allow me to spell it out for you:

    “Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians NOW vs the last several decades of Israel’s apartheid state? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of trans people in America? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of Ukrainians?”

    This shouldn’t be hard to figure out. People chose this issue now because they can afford to ignore the consequences of a Trump (or even just GOP) administration. They don’t have to deal with what happens and that fact allows them to prioritize one genocide over another.
