By promoting the lies that either Biden or Harris can single handedly stop the genocide, and that they’ve made no attempt to do so.

If we just ended our alliance with Israel, do you know what they would do next? They would likely ally themselves with Russia instead.

That would give Russia control over a port that facilitates a huge portion of commerce in the middle east. It would also give them control of a lot of tech companies, including Intel’s massive R&D campus, and they would have access to the iron dome, which would be a pretty big intelligence leak. Israel also has an extremely important spy network that western countries rely on, and suddenly they would start serving Russia instead.

It would also allow the rest of the middle east to “escape containment”, so to speak. Particularly Iran. As soon as that happens, where do you think their missiles will go next?

Oh, and the genocide of Palestinians would still continue.

Geopolitics is complicated, and Biden was walking a tightrope. He was at least placing limits on how US weapons could be used, and trying to negotiate a ceasefire. Trump will scrap all of that and encourage Israel to kill everyone in the region.

But you didn’t care about any of that. Your moral outrage prevented you from trying to figure out why things are the way they are, and you joined the choir of people who were trying to prevent anyone from voting for Harris. A choir that mostly consisted of Trump supporters who were just trying to promote anything that might hurt Harris’s chances of winning.

Yes, because you helped him win.

MAP (minimum advertised price) is often different from MSRP, but otherwise this comment is correct.

In some industries, like RVs or auto parts, the vast majority of products have a MAP. The manufacturers also have bots that scan the internet for MAP violations, and they’ll blacklist a vendor if they don’t fix the price within a day or two. (Which is really annoying when there’s a false positive and I get blamed for it.)

I think it’s partly so high volume vendors can’t put smaller vendors out of business by just reducing their margins as much as possible, and it’s partly because the manufacturer doesn’t want their products to look like they’re really cheap. Customers feel better about finding a “great deal” on an “expensive” product.

I haven’t said anything on the subject before, because I don’t care very much, but I don’t know what the alternative is supposed to be. It’s not like someone who is that famous can walk into a public airplane without putting her own safety at risk and causing trouble for other passengers.

It’s also well known that conservatives really hate her because she told her fans to vote and these memes are part of their effort to discredit her. Whether the point has any merit or not, it’s obvious who started the trend and who it’s helping.

Why the fuck aren’t more people pressuring him with questions like this?

Because they’ll never get another interview with him, or most other Republican politicians. It’s a pathetic reason, but that’s all it takes.

Close encounters of the racist kind is a good read. Here’s the most relevant part:

Consider the H2 series “In Search of Aliens,” which, before its demise, promoted the work of Jan Udo Holey, a German writer whose antisemitic books have been banned across Europe. (Holey’s pen name, Jan Van Helsig, is a blunt Dracula reference, i.e. Jews are bloodsuckers.) The History Channel’s long-running series “Ancient Aliens,” meanwhile, features David Childress, whose books cite and build on the work of James Churchward, who promoted an ancient empire called the “lost continent of Mu,” whose “dominant race” was an “exceedingly handsome people, with clear white or olive skin.”

The history channel is entry level nazi propaganda.

You’re still trying to change the subject and not answering the question.

How exactly do you think someone can be anonymous to the government if they’re not anonymous to the public?

We’re not talking about doxxing. Don’t change the subject.

How exactly do you think someone can be anonymous to the government if they’re not anonymous to the public?

The Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly that the right to anonymous free speech is protected by the First Amendment. A frequently cited 1995 Supreme Court ruling in McIntyre v. Ohio Elections Commission reads:

Anonymity is a shield from the tyranny of the majority. . . . It thus exemplifies the purpose behind the Bill of Rights and of the First Amendment in particular: to protect unpopular individuals from retaliation . . . at the hand of an intolerant society.

That’s a foolish assumption. Plenty of countries have strong reasons to weaken Israel, and plenty of other countries have strong reasons to support them.

Russia and China are spreading as much propaganda about this as the the US and its allies, guaranteed.

I have no idea what that means, but it sounds accurate

It is hurting people
