Sorry y’all. I am fully off the Biden train after the “what matters is that I try my best” answer. Maybe switching candidates now would be a strategic disaster but this man is not up for the task of saving us.

Korea is even more interesting because a lot of the really insane stuff we saw in vietnam as operational policy had its roots in Korea, like how there were obsessive fears of mass defection among US/UN forces leadership even though in the end the total number of defectors was like... twenty

Dumbest plan I have ever read about in my life and it's not going to go the way Israeli nationalists think. Even if you didn't think this was evil, and it is in fact very evil and especially so in the context of our postwar history, it is also catastrophically stupid.

Also there was a system of mass prisons with really dire conditions during the Korean war, I would reccomend season 3 of Blowback for learning about this. Episode 4 I believe touches on them specifically and how they started in Koje island

Pretty awesome Jeremy Corbyn won as an independent with grassroots campaigning and support from youth and POC voters. Definitely shows that pro-Palestine politicians who call out the genocide in Gaza can win

Biden should probably stop supporting genocide so he or his replacement wins the election then. Because right now it looks like they've decided they care more about continuing to sponsor genocide than they do about stopping Donald Trump, to the point of ignoring explicit US laws like the Leahy act.

This resolution was not initiated by the Netanyahu coalition but instead by the right wing of the opposition in the Knesset, by the way. For those who think getting Netanyahu out will solve the central problem of Israeli rejectionisism.

Satellite images analysed by Al Jazeera's digital investigation team, Sanad show that more than half (60 percent) of Gaza's farmland, crucial for feeding the war-ravaged territory’s hungry population, has been damaged or destroyed by Israeli attacks. A genocidal campaign in clear view.

The Israeli Knesset is set to pass a resolution, with support from a significant part of the opposition voting alongside the ruling government coalition, that will oppose a Palestinian state "of any nature— at any time; under any circumstances" as an "existential threat" to the State of Israel.

If Joe Biden wants to be president for a second term, he needs to start doing peppy town halls that demonstrate he is still the sharp and capable man who knifed Paul Ryan dead in a debate in 2012. If he can't or won't do that, the question has answered itself and he should resign.

If Joe Biden can't generate a polling lead or beat Trump in a debate, then he can't beat Trump in the election and should be replaced with someone who can. I do not care about Joe Biden's feelings. I care about stopping Trump's re-election and Joe does not seem capable of doing that.

"probably better than trump on mental faculties" is a pathetic low bar to set. We're not here to make joe biden feel good about himself. I want to stop trump from being president, again, and it increasingly looks like Joe biden can't do that. He should piss off so someone who can stop trump, will.
