This guy is very "the ends justify the means" pilled. Deciding on if a war was justified or not should be decided on how it started, not how it ended. You can be justified in starting a war and still lose or have a bad outcome long term. The US was justified in supporting local governments fight against USSR/CCP influence we just didn't take that fight far enough.

Summary of the Fetterman sitch here:

Basically, he is still struggling with recovery from the stroke and mental health in general. He’s also got the pro-Palestine crowd out to get him. Then, he has Democrats worried a run at re-election will go the same way as it was going for Biden and they don’t want to wait until it’s too late again.

His moderate positioning is good for the general but as things stand he is going to be primaried if he runs but the new nominee might be worse for the general. So they just want him to fuck off.

That's too bad, he was the only Democrat I kinda liked.

I don't think it's crazy to say that adjusted for technology, life was better in 1910 than 2025.
Russia could have ruled the 20th century with a population of 500 million plus, then the Bolsheviks came and squandered it all.

I don't think you want that. Typhoid, small pox, polio, and tuberculosis would kill a minimum of 25% of your children. There is a reason asylums were common at the time. Where I live we have stories of the Catholic church throwing the crazies on an island and letting them play PUBG with rocks.

Bolsheviks under Lenin if he lived longer and, God willing, appointed Trotsky we might have seen a passive Soviet Union. Granted the USSR would still have a hate boner from the US supporting the Monarchy but I believe there could have been a tolerance of each other an some trade. Also we both would hate the British Empire so maybe we could have united via hatred of the British.

“War kills people so it must be bad unless its ww2” is their entire world view.

People in LA have been complaining for years about the movie studios outsourcing to other countries. That is just telling the studios to make their stuff in America again.

That won't stop the exodus from LA but it may help new hubs like Atlanta and Las Vegas. I think it will hurt places like Netflix a lot as they purchase foreign content and dub it.

Alcatraz is pretty much a museum now so this motherfucker deciding to be like "fuck these guys, regular prison is fake and gay. let's put them on an island again" is hilarious because you know he'll really do it.

A lot of the resistance to Trump is "wait, what? this is actually happening?" after decades of politicians just saying shit.

Kiwis, I need some help. I was made aware of a certain deportee named Mikael Subero. He was deported to El Salvador, and investigating it is a nightmare.

I trust that he did some heinous shit, and was 100% abusing the asylum loophole. My wife brought the guy up, he was featured on NPR and she wanted to know dets on what he had really done, and I am coming up short handed. More than that, the info on this internationally covered person of interest is the most astroturfed thing i have ever come across.

All Spanish language posts.

99% of tweets about his case happened in a 24 hour period with next to no groundswell or support. The "latest" tweet about him was April 10. This is despite a puff piece Monday on This American Life.

Zero mentions on Kiwifarms.

I get they wised up and wanted to make a hero of someone who isn't a complete shit bag,(he just looks like a dumb 20 something) but the complete lack of information despite it being in some level of lefty zeitgeist is plain weird.



Who is he? What did he do? And fucking who's next motherfuckers, gotta deport em all!

What’s funny is that Hollywood created the ahitty unions which lead productions to go overseas, and now Trump is tariffing them, forcing Hollywood to deal with the unions they created to gate keep people. This could work out in everyone’s favor by leading to a total death of the commie Hollywood unions once and for all.
