Threatening genocide to reach a ceasefire is some extremist shit. How far was he prepared to take it if his demands weren’t met?

Implying the use of nuclear weapons will now be viewed as a winning strategy to him.

It’s Putin level politics.

The sense of shared achievement isn’t there for me.

Even if it’s a big collaboration. I have trouble feeling good about it. It still feels like furthering US interests, which align less and less with mine

This situation reminds me too much of ‘Wag the Dog’

Not sure how widespread this was but early on Linkedin used to spam your contacts with a message saying you were trying to add them on Linkedin.

I remember receiving tons of them and having to set Linkedin as spam.

Linkedin, for me, at least has always been sketchy. Like the Zynga of Social Media. Scam your way till you get lucky.

I’ve said this in the past, the earth is the only place with life we actually know of. We can speculate about life elsewhere but earth is the only confirmed source of life we should do everything to preserve life on earth and the natural forces that govern it.

But this ain’t that. This lands, to me, more in the “we’re staking a claim to the moon and these are the first steps in that process”

I hope I’m wrong but either way I can’t get excited about this atm.

Good. Fuck off.

“Humiliated” “storms out” - this is some tabloidly language.

She stayed loyal to Trump and destroyed the evidence against him. She’s set now.

I can’t feel excited about this This feels like part of a new US expansionist agenda.

The AG who helped hide Trump’s crimes has been dismissed right before she was to testify about those crimes and her own.

Saw this comment made elsewhere:

Why doesn’t Trump ask his ‘Board of Peace’ to come bail him out?

Lesson is don’t make deals with the US. Iran has learned that recently as well.

Edit: More like 'make the best deal you can but always expect the US to change the terms on you in the future.

Ideally but when change doesn’t come because the system suppresses it, extreme acts result.

Any goal would be productive.

Edit: There aren’t any demands being made so they don’t feel the pressure enough. I know it’s about getting together to get the discourse started but meanwhile Trump has started a war without warrant or approval, and that’s just the most recent thing he’s done. He’s planning on messing with the election/voter roll next. Some opposition is needed.

It’s good to protest but if everything returns to normal Monday morning, then thsy don’t have to change anything.

The morning after the protest in Minnesota ICE shot Alex Pretti. Justice for them should be demanded.

“There’s going to be a bit of discomfort while we kill off the poorest people in the world but we’ll be better off in the future.”

Still operating as a monopoly - don’t expect improvements for customers.

Throw it on the pile
