Last I knew, Rojava was working the the Syrian government. They're quite aware that if they had their own state, Turkey would invade and genocide them. Not that Turkey hasn't been bombing them in Syrian territory anyway.

What kind of headline is that?

Everyone in Europe killing each other every generation predates capitalism. Capitalism did increase the scale though; after the fall of the western roman empire, we didn't see armies of that size until Napoleon managed to draft a million men in a country of 30 million.

He was targeted by the most powerful groups in society, immigrants.

One day, this country's most marginalized group, police, will rise up, and get the boot of homeless people off their necks.

Why are all of NYC's mayors such reactionary pieces of shit, 10 miles to the right of the populace?

 

Looks like it's having a measurable effect.

 

The bill in question is the one Biden tried to pass, but was blocked by republicans after Trump called it a bad bill, despite containing only things the republicans want.

It would enable the president to shut down the border and gives billions to ICE, CPB, US Marshals, etc to increase detention capacity, train additional personnel, etc. It also gave billions to Israel and Ukraine.

Kamala gonna have the immigrant vote locked up.

 

Among other changes to immigration law, the measure would make it more difficult to gain asylum in the United States and increase detentions and deportations of those crossing into the country without authorization. It would also effectively close the border altogether if the average number of migrants encountered by immigration officials exceeded a certain threshold — an average of 5,000 over the course of a week or 8,500 on any given day. The bill also would give the president power to close the border unilaterally if migrant encounters reach an average of 4,000 per day over a week.
