There are over a million Gazans still alive. That is a very large number of people barely hanging on from starvation that can still be mercilessly wiped out. You really sure about that 5% figure?

Doesn't his Sec of Defense nominee have a Deus Vult tattoo? Yeah, that doesn't bode well...
Excellent. I wonder if we'll finally hit a critical mass over there.
Assuming he abides by constitutional law, this will be his final term.
Was wondering how long it would take to roll something like this out. Bout time.
most Americans voted for a man they have every reason to believe is a rapist.
Minor quibble, but Trump won ~75 million votes by current count. Out of our population of 330 million people (including ineligible voters) that is 22.7%.
So no, most Americans did not vote for him.
I don't fully agree with this, but I agree with enough of it that it doesn't really matter. To add to it, now is the ideal time to push for reform in party leadership, after a major loss.
Actually, we who engage in nonviolent direct action are not the creators of tension. We merely bring to the surface the hidden tension that is already alive. We bring it out in the open, where it can be seen and dealt with.
I just wanted to highlight this statement. He's absolutely right.
Trump and his supporters use “unity” as a euphemism for conformity, expecting marginalized groups to suppress their identities.
How do dems manage that one?
Also not sure how dems enable fascist tactics, when one person-one vote is a primary platform position.
That last line was the funniest thing I've read in the past few days, so thank you for that.
People like to focus on economic factors because they're easily quantifiable. More vague factors disassociated from economic lifestyle are difficult to quantify, so harder to study and talk about. By way of example, though, when someone really hates black people, that's not economic, it's personal. It's something else entirely. Men wanting power over women isn't economic. Even immigration complaints aren't really economic, that's just an excuse to cover up much less defensible reasoning.

I hope I'm wrong, but I expect the difference being going from a small handful of aid trucks a day to zero aid trucks a day. That would be a big difference to the people of Gaza.
