No one has ever seen (disapproval) ratings this high!

Apparently Dawkins also had a habit of publicly cheating on his wife.

At this point in my life I’m starting to think that all my heroes are probably either full of shit or are engaging in unethical or immoral activities.

It really pisses me off that for decades I was unknowingly consuming Zionist propaganda and it worked on me. I’ve always been the type of person to question my beliefs and I got fooled.

Makes me wonder what other bullshit I believe.

Shame you’ve got an idiot rampaging through the world markets for a relative pittance (but actual fortune) from insider trading. Who would have thought that’d go badly long term.

Ironically, it may actually be Trump who brings about the rapid global adoption of EVs and renewable energy because of his stupid war with Iran and his tariffs. The rest of the world is fed up with having to rely on fossil fuels and they are dramatically ramping up both EV adoption as well as renewable energy.

I get the feeling that the US and Russia will be the last countries to fully adopt electric vehicles.

Meanwhile Trump is paying companies in the US to shutter wind turbine projects.

Keep in mind that according to the US Department of Education, 54% of American adults cannot read or write prose beyond a sixth grade level.

Also, I have read elsewhere that nearly 20% of Americans are functionally illiterate. I wonder how many of these people vote.

Not half. Only 65% of the population who was eligible to vote, did so.

That means a majority of Americans rejected Trump.

I should have been more clear. The US routinely prosecutes soldiers for all sorts of crimes having nothing to do with friendly fire. Examples include but are not limited to embezzlement, rape, torture and murder. There is no statute of limitation on murder.

Also, just because I’m a vet, it doesn’t mean that I’ve ever participated in a war. In fact, I haven’t. Unless you count being stationed in Germany during the cold war, manning a desk in a medical supply unit.

Two things are required before you can change the rules of the game. You need to have a super majority and that super majority has to want to change the rules. AIPAC captured candidates are not likely to change the rules they rely on to stay funded and in power.

At this point Israel out spends the people on candidates, using US taxpayer money.

As far as the current administration and “fundraising” is concerned. They aren’t fundraising, they are grifting.

You can’t overhaul anything without a supermajority. So throwing sand in the gears is worth the effort.

Untrue. Source: I am a veteran

The biggest problem with Israel is that they are an apartheid state which condones violence against all Palestinians, even going as far as legalizing execution by hanging of Palestinians only.

I believed Israeli propaganda my whole life and have only recently opened my eyes to their crimes against humanity. I feel like such a fool, because I actually paid pretty close attention to politics and news my entire adult life.

This can cut both ways. Now those soldiers can be prosecuted in the US under the UCMJ.

There is no statute of limitations for murder.

AIPAC isn’t enjoying the spotlight they’re in now and are scrambling to hide their influence. People will need to pay a lot closer attention to how candidates are funded as Israel shifts to opaque entities to fund candidates with.

I wonder how much of our aid to Israel ends up being spent on funding AIPAC.

Except impeachment lets the Republicans play the victim card in '28.

They’re going to do that anyway. Don’t let their bullshit stop us from doing what’s right. Otherwise we’re just allowing him to continue his criminal activity with no pushback. And that depresses voter turnout.

Not only that but defending himself from impeachment takes resources away from all the other awful shit Trump is doing.

We need more candidates like Kat Abughazaleh

One of the problems with the Democratic Party is that the number one quality for choosing leadership is how well they fundraise. Obviously this makes leadership beholden to those with the biggest pockets, like AIPAC.

We need to primary every Democrat incumbent who isn’t a progressive in action as well as rhetoric.

Thanks for this. I’m definitely dropping ollama now. No wonder GGUF models always gave me issues.

I might even dump open webui for llama.cpp’s webui

They really are fucking idiots.

And this is the kindest interpretation of their continued support for him.
