I find it exceedingly hard to believe that a conservative will not vote for Trump when it really comes down to the day. I think there are plenty that will say they won't all the way up to that point though.
Already cited two, but if you think "mow the lawn" is about Hamas, you're already too far up the IDFs sphincter to likely care
Unbelievable that you can see all this carnage, deliberate use of non surgical engagement, calling Palestinians animals, calling leveling entire population centers "mowing the lawn", and think they are fighting Hamas.
They know exactly what they're doing, they'll tell you themselves even.
Such an important distinction I'm sure, as they both file into the ballet box to vote for the Republican nominee.
Maybe not explicitly call himself a Zionist or flood the IDF with money
They've been blithering on about it in stereo surround sound since the first COVID cough (and long before that), what "silence"
You're right, the IDF has slaughtered far far far more people than appear in the cartoon
Incredibly you still have Musk fans that think SpaceX is somehow different than his plethora of other ego projects. They'd watch him piss into incoming wind and explain how his urine splattered clothes are a 4D business chess move
Yet it'll be some dude who gets pulled over for a broken tail light he can't afford to fix who gets front page in a tabloid mugshot magazine
Ladies and Gentlemen, the "party of law and order"
Don't bother he's just Tucker Carlson'ing. "Just asking questions" with a face that looks like a swirled dish rag
They tried that a bit ago with Ted Cruz and the "taking our gas stoves and hamburgers" but it didn't have much sticking power. It will come around in full strength eventually though.
Wish NPR had the guts to have a left wing bias. Between fund drives, hand wringing, pearl clutching, and some biographic segment on the death of an obscure vaudeville act reviewer, they're pressed for time to come up with anything else
But have you considered the pitched and complex conflict between [an advanced first world military] and [starving children]
It will continue to exist because it's useful for the ruling class.
Terms like "unskilled labor" help the media do their job, which is helping capital convince the masses that the "unskilled laborers" are speaking above their station when asking for a livible wage.
It's "burger flippers" for people who want to call themselves more politically literate. Language currently used to minimize and undermine.
It will definitely continue to exist, but acting like there aren't connotations here or that they aren't directly related to the "real problem of low wages" is wack
And no one ignores the plight of rural folk as much as Republicans. Indeed they want to make it worse to gin up more discomfort. I'm from deep rural Alabama. To say my family votes against their own interests is a given, for the two choices, but they vote for the most extreme antithesis to their best interest every time because frankly, they're committed to the "invisible war against """other"""".
I agree they should escape, but I also am not going to extend them some bullshit about how they're "forgotten" or "ignored". They know exactly what they're doing. They are making their choices.
Chanticleer, Aarakocra Paladin He brings the SUN
(Sun do shine sun do shiIIINE) My master taught me how to smite That's why I help with all my might Sun do shine sundoshine
Not gonna hear it from me, criticize away!
I think this particular thing is more like: is my somewhat well intentioned but misguided neighbor coming to my house complaining that I'm killing the earth with my one monthly Ziploc bag or is Exxon Mobile coming and telling me that
The first one is surely an eyeroll but the second one is a real circus act.
So, while criticizing Biden might catch you heat from some random Vote Blue No Matter Who types, it's real fuckin rich to hear it from as deep inside the machine as a Clinton
For sure, there's quite the list to choose from!
Every fifth political article including this one is related to the conflict of more progressive or leftist voters not wanting the highly establishment Joe "bussing policy, crime bill, I'm a Zionist" Biden. If you haven't seen that then frankly I'm a little baffled
