Genocide+

It used to be, but I doubt I'd even call it a swing state anymore. Democratics need to stop caring what they think. Florida Cubans are like the most conservative people on the planet. Like, leading the Proud Boys level conservative. They're never voting for a Democrat.

100%. Look at all the cities that rolled back progress on changes made to their police departments from the BLM movement as soon as they could.

Thank God they're finally building some chip plants here. The fact that our whole economy depends on some foreign island next to a huge country that has always hustorically threatened to take it back is insane to me. Although I think we should have more manufacturing in the homeland in general. Thanks capitalism, for off shoring manufacturing for the last many decades -_-

Because Trump said what he was going tk do and people didn't like. He didn't even win the majority and had revealed himself tk he racist and sexist, of course people were going to protest him.

Thanks for the perspective! So the people saying the US did it, so Israel can do it too, are even more wrong than I thought!

People are losing their jobs just for asking for a ceasefire, not even for saying anything antisemitic. It's insane. I still feel sorry for that Scream 7 actress.

I use mine everyday. I listen to music, podcasts, and sometimes watch videos at work, basically the entire time I'm working. I usually have my phone connected and charging at the same time through the charge port. Wireless charging doesn't work because of my Pop Socket.

They also break or I lose them in occasion and it takes a quick trip to any gas station, grocery store, or basically any nearby store during my lunch break, and I'm able to pick up replacements for $10-$20.

Fair to say, I refuse to buy my next phone without headphone jacks. I do use wireless headphones for when I'm working out, but otherwise, at work or on walks, I use wired ones connected to my headphone jack.

It's sad =(

You mean sending aid to the country defending itself from a much larger more dangerous country rather than the one that's wrecking a tiny already occupied open air prison just fine by itself? And the first enemy actually poses a danger to our politics and elections, while the second enemy can barely get fresh food and water let alone exert any international influence at all? Hm... Nah, makes too much sense for US politicians... That won't do.

I mean, it is. Democracies can do genocides without being fascist. It's not great, but it's true. The alternative is Trump, who probably wouldn't even be making lip service to a ceasefire or mentioning the West Bank settlements like Biden has.

They have a cure already. They have giant walls, the iron dome missile defense system, hundreds of drones patrolling Gaza, supposedly a state of the art intelligence apparatus, mass mandatory recruitment (well... Except for the orthodox Jews), large towers, fences, etc. There's a reason this is unprecedented. They just had their resources positioned to take over West Bank settlements instead, and ignored warnings from multiple sources about an imminent attack. Their leadership fucked up. And are continuing to fuck up by positioning the rest of the world against their genocide.

The thing is more genocide won't fix the cancer. The US figured that out in Vietnam, North Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. It just makes the survivors want to kill you more. That doesn't fix the cancer like you think it does. It was fine for the US to fuck up those other places because we can just leave and we often make a bunch of money during the conflict, but Israel can't. They need to learn to coexist, take lessons from places like South Africa, or the UK and IRA. It was actually negotiating that stopped the attacks in those places. They tried the killing everyone thing for awhile but it doesn't work.

Personally, I think the cure is teaming up with a local alternative secular group, like the PLO, and empowering them without undermining their authority and support by doing things like the shit they do in the West Bank, or preventing travel between the two sectors from, or controlling their water, power, food supply, etc, or giving up on negotiations because Hamas does an unrelated terrorism. It's like negotiating with MLK, Jr so you don't have to negotiate with Malcolm X. Hamas has negative popularity but no one has the resources to stop them, and no random civilians are going to bother trying to while Israel controls more aspects of their daily life in a more obviously negative way (electricity, water quality, incoming supplies, travel, work visas, drone buzzing, etc.). And to demand you do before helping them even though you have all the power in the relationship is like the cops telling a mom and pop shop to try fighting the mafia first before they do something about the mafia extorting them.
