That cat does look like a party-er…

Daniel Avidaniel?!

Only if you take money from the wealthy instead of the poors.

In journalism, as opposed to internet forums, quotes are used to convey something someone else has literally said instead of representing something in a mocking tone. Someone called it torture (potentially an expert in calling things torture) so they used quotes to say “we’re not calling this torture, someone more educated in this topic called it torture and we are leaning on their expertise to know what they’re talking about”

“Should” 😆

Where in my comment did I back Russia?

You’re right, you didn’t explicitly back them.

It doesn’t have to be run by the Russian government to be affected by it. This article is about election meddling, not deep state conspiracy stuff. Do you deny that meddling? That it has had a serious impact on the US and a wide array of other countries?

Intentional destabilization while not mucking about with actually controlling it is often times even worse, especially when it comes to as influential country as the US.

That doesn’t mean they have no culpability… but as I said, it’s not a vacuum. There’s always more than one factor, and ignoring any in favor of only one is intentional ignorance of the worst kind.

And how much is the Russian interference having on US action? Ignoring that for the obvious baddy is exactly what this interference is meant to do. You’re essentially helping them do their job.

If youre a communist and youre backing Russia, youre doing it wrong.

Now if you’re a soviet apologist on the other hand…

There is also the evidence that this Russian interference is directly impacting how US is being run. Does that not factor into your value judgment?

No one can, in good conscience, say that the US isnt having a significant negative impact on world stability… but obviously it’s not happening in a vacuum.

But whattabout…

He’s probably got quite a few oligarchs eager to put him on their board.

And smashed against rocks. Or was that just the coney?

People would rather play GameCube now instead of later.

Nothing is a victory by that metric. Nothing is ever perfect, and criticizing the methods instead of the negativity is completely counterproductive.

If you want to make the argument that people shouldn’t count their eggs before they’re hatched, make that argument. Don’t make a different argument then chastise people for not getting what you “mean” instead of what youre actually saying.

Impossible is made with soy, not pea protein. I believe Beyond is the only one using pea protein (though I dont k ow if less well known brands are using it now as well).

Impossibles gimmick is that it’s supposed to taste more like meat than most alternatives.

Isn’t the “Skywalker Saga” encompassing all nine ‘mainline’ movies, the ones with episode numbers? Not saying most are good… but at least some of them aren’t turbo-shit.

Strategic voting at least staves off the worst for a while. It’s not the solution, but it is part of a solution.

There’s no one single thing that will fix everything. Not protesting, not violent action, not voting. They are all part of a whole that is necessary to affecting lasting and positive change. Advocating that people not do one and only do the other lessens all action.

Yeah, it’s the whole “controlled by the state” thing I’ll never trust about marxism-leninism. You dont get an informed and organized population by subverting them and taking away their mobility.

Authoritarianism doesn’t lead to freedom.

Its the hill we all die on, since it affects so many. Even those who cant vote in those elections.

They took a lot of liberties with yhe translations.

Google pokemon donuts.

It all started with trains.
