  • Walz supports Israel making a preemptive strike on Iran, not the US. At no point did he or Harris say they would use US troops in an offense against Iran.

    The Democratic party was always the fascist party but with "the mask on

    Not anywhere close to reality. The democratic party in no way meets the definition of fascism.

    "Diplomacy is my preferred path to that end, but ALL OPTIONS are on the table,” she added.

    So the same as literally every president ever.

    he was not tough enough toward the Iranian threat.

    He cozies up to all the dictators because he wants to be one, so yeah he wasn’t tough enough. He let them out of their treaty which was preventing their atomic weapons research. Keeping nukes out of the hands of an authoritarian theocracy is a good thing.

    This is why she was never going to end the Genocide in Palestine.

    Except she and Biden have been pushing for peace nonstop.

    Meanwhile Trump said he would encourage Israel to “finish the job” which means kill them all.

    an army should only be defensive

    The best defense is to be the most lethal army so nobody wants to fight you. That has been US policy for BOTH parties since WW2. It’s a good policy because it keeps us out of wars.

    That policy is getting us closer to nuclear war and you think it’s good that Kamala Harris wanted to follow it !?

    The policy for Democrats in past decades has been mutual disarmament of nukes. Trump wants us building more.

    Again, she is just being the fascist with the mask on, instead of being mask off like Trump.

    Again, you need to look up the definition of fascism because Harris in no way meets it.

    And just to remember you, I do not support Donald Trump, I never did and never will.

    If you didn’t vote for Harris, you did support Trump.



  • I think we definitely are in agreement here. My one quibble is I don’t know that religion is the antithesis of government so much as a more primitive form of government. The earliest religions were a form of law enforcement in world without police or judicial systems.

    If it’s just you and someone else alone in the wilderness, why shouldn’t you just kill them and take their stuff? There are no consequences. Religion adds the consequences. “God will punish you. You’ll burn in Hell/Hades/Tartarus.” Why shouldn’t I steal? “It’s a sin.” Why shouldn’t I sleep with my neighbors wife? “It’s bad karma.” It’s all just laws enforced by a mythological father figure instead of a real guy with a gun.


  • Let’s remember K.H. literally said she wanted to start a new war with Iran

    Citation fucking needed.

    she wanted the “most lethal army in the world”.

    That has been the explicit US policy of the US regardless of leadership for 80 years.

    If you think Harris and Trump are equally crazy, YOU are the one who needs psychological treatment. Trump literally wanted to nuke a hurricane, pulled us out of our nuclear deal with Iran, encouraged the US to develop and test “low yield” nuclear arms, and encouraged South Korea to build their own nukes. Harris along with Biden has simply continued the standard nuclear deterrent policy the US has followed for decades in spite of the first direct nuclear threat by another country since the Cuban Missile Crisis.











  • It’s true that there are still a lot of votes to be counted, but I am sceptical they a high enough portion will got to Harris to disprove my point.

    There are about 158 million people voting this election and 140 million or so ballots have been counted so far. If a full 60% of the remaining votes go to Harris, Trump’s vote total would still be less than Biden’s in 2020.




  • In 2020, Biden got 80 million votes and Trump got 74 million.

    In 2024, Harris got 68 million voted and Trump got 72 million.

    My take is basically 10+ million people who voted for Biden stayed home rather than vote for Harris. For some reason they couldn’t bring themselves to vote for either. There was no reason that they cared about where one was better than the other.
