Mayor Zohran Mamdani charged Benjamin Nentayahu with genocide, said he is unwelcome in New York City, and called for his arrest. Two years ago, that would have been unimaginable. Going forward, it should be a litmus test.

    We havent had a fair election in my entire life. Bush straight up stole the election from Gore, and even if theres none of that extreme blatant stealing, everything is rigged so hard in favor of republicans, from voting booth locations, to gerrymandering, to right wing thugs being intimidating, etc etc.

      Imagine a world where Al Gore won in 2000, and Bernie Sanders in 2016. Sigh

      Can’t change the past though. Might as well wish Jimmy Carter beat Reagan in '81, and JFK and LBJ both served two full terms…

      It’s crazy to think how different the world could be if a few evil republicans didn’t ratfuck everything.

      Nixon, Reagan, Bush2, and tRump. The sheer amount of the world’s woes that can be laid squarely at the feet of just four people is astounding

      It’s not like they didn’t have help. But if it weren’t for those four presidencies, so much shit never would have happened…

          You’re going to need to elaborate, you’ve lost me with what exactly you’re trying to get at with being so vague. Traditionally you use the subject’s name, before switching to pronouns so the reader knows who the fuck you’re talking about.

            This is not hard to follow. You responded to someone, your comment appears below theirs. I responded to you, my comment appears below yours. Notice how this trend continues.

            How is he “right” in saying there has “never” been a fair election in his lifetime but he’s not including two of them? Has he died and come to life repeatedly?
