We can fight every fire individually, or we can institute UBI, or we can admit that we don't give a fuck about other humans and want them to die.

If your economic system says people must be productive to be able to survive, and also enshrines eliminating jobs so that people can't do that, it's an attack on other humans and their only rational response is to attack it with everything they have so that they can be permitted to live.

We've spent well over forty years prioritizing greed over all other possible virtues. We're in one of the inflection points at this particular moment. We can either decide that we have some value other than greed, or we can let society steer itself into oblivion through that greed.

Based on the way things are looking? All our big decision makers have decided to just let greed continue to play its game. Human health and life itself doesn't matter in the face of profit potential for the few.

Or ... bear with me now ... your political opponents aren't cartoon-ish enemies, but rather people who just disagree with you about how simple you think the solutions to life's problems are.

Rent free, immunity, etc... that's all good. In fact it's absolutely great! But we must be giving something to Manila in order to get this deal, like protection from certain asshole neighbor (you know who), or an iron dome installation, some other defensive capabilities against naval/aerial adversaries. We're not seeing those details.

Oh dear. Is there some danger here of an alliance that actually benefits both parties?

Chill out. Go take a walk and let those strawmen fade away in the sunlight. You sound like you're trying to wind yourself up until your mind breaks. He's one guy who won't be President for much longer. Worry about your own soul for a bit. Go find someone who needs help and help them. Rage and resentment aren't going to help you, they're going to ruin you.

Well, that's all they have.

Magas hold no positions, values, or morals. They believe what they are told to believe, even if that contradicts what they were told to believe weeks, days, or even minutes ago. They will parrot whatever fox news talking points that somehow attempt to square this circle with bring back US domestic industry and american first. Just like they think "paying a fundir religious zealot run nation twenty billion dollars" a "win."

lol ... you are literally just parroting the talking points that you have been fed.

You believe what you are told to believe, even if it's insane (e.g. 50%+ of the country are "racists", etc.).

Israel and the US, the fascist aggressors who started this war, should obviously surrender, and hand over the architects of the war to Iran to face trial.

Wow. You really are that brain damaged. And similar idiots upvote you.

The mullahs of Iran literally killed tens of thousands of their own citizens for protesting. Recently. They are the fascists. Just a little remedial reality lesson for you.
