I had a feeling this was one of yours before I even clicked.

Nice! What did you think of the article?

[-] proper@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

I thought it was another uninspired, malicious, and willfully deceptive tripe piece. Designed to divide the democratic vote as part of a larger attempt to narrow the margins between D and R. which all result in a benefit to gop when their mail-in ballot lawsuits, installed electors, state ballot candidate omissions, and “steal conspiracy 2.0” rhetoric ramps up.

Then you didn't understand the article.

As much as I'd enjoy it, I don't think it'll be like Chicago in 68. First, people aren't being drafted to go fight in Israel, so there's not an existential threat to the people who would be protesting. Second, this isn't a contested primary, and we didn't have a popular anti-war candidate assassinated prior to the convention.

Hahaha. Zero chance.

You don't know the difference between being 13 years into a direct war with drafted American soldiers dying frequently, vs the US supporting an ally who is taking military action?

I'm sure there will be a protest if things aren't resolved by then but what a huge lack of historical knowledge it takes to make this claim.
