The problem is that peace has been negotiated before, and what happened? This…

Israel has had enough.

Lived in southern Africa for 6 months. Primarily Mozambique but I was in SA a little as well as Malawi. They’re very racist, the Africans. My brother who was there as well was driving somewhere one day with a Mozambican, a good dude, and it came up that he wanted all the white people out of Mozambique. My brother is a red-headed white American. He questioned this Mozambican asking what about himself? “Oh, not you, we like you.” Its just how they think about things, probably going back to all the colonization that happened and all the ills or perceived ills that came from that. And so it’s easy to just keep going back to that idea as a society.

And for the record, they didn’t just want all the white people out. They wanted the Chinese out as well. And there’s tensions between the various tribes. Combine all that with low levels of education and extensive poverty and it’s easy for charismatic leaders to come along and pump up these ideas and get movements going as people see hope in the promises even when the results are obviously going to be bad.

Like it or not, Republicans push for less business regulations, they’ve neutered the EPA at least some(as a moderate conservative I’m not necessarily in favor of that one but it’s reality) when given the chance,

About the only things that democrats can pin this idea on the Republicans about is abortion and immigration.

The Democrats forced the ACA, which is more regulation and bigger government. Republicans were the ones pushing back on vaccine mandates while Democrats pushed for them.

So ya, I stand by my statement that the op statement is not some unique thing to the Republicans and I think stating that as if it is and then agreeing with it is an example of basing your opinions on feelings and propaganda, not facts and reality.

Are you suggesting the Democrats haven’t been about bigger government? Are you suggesting that bigger government means more freedom and less regulations? Like, this isn’t even all that debatable. I truly don’t think you understand the reality of, well, reality if you think this isn’t the case.

Course, the far left is all about whats not reality and I bet that’s exactly the space you think in. Makes it easy to just spout off whatever nonsense sounds like fits your narrative about the other side and call it intelligent.

Ever heard the idea that when you point at someone you’re pointing 3 fingers back at yourself?

For the record, I’d level similar criticisms at the far right and it’s narratives as well.

I guess the reality of what the Democratic party has been for the last, oh, 70-80 years at least is irrelevant if we’re trying to disparage the Republicans? Way to hive mind yourselves Lemmy…

As if that description doesn’t apply to democrats…

Red Alert has a strong female character and is definitely age appropriate… :)

They are Yellow, YRC, Holland, and Reddaway depending on what region you’re in. And there’s plenty of overlap.

There’s a new docsis version right around the corner that will provide symmetric speeds. Comcast is starting to roll it out this year. Cable will be a lot faster in a couple years.

I don’t understand why this isn’t the most up voted selection.
