What year did that take place?

Edit: One would assume your claim about Trump inviting a Palestinian on stage is easily verifiable yet I cannot find any source. The only source I can find of Trump even talking with a Palestinian is when he invited Abbas to the Whitehouse in 2017, where Trump stated he could go either way with a two state or one state solution but nothing was guaranteed. So please continue and share what evidence you have or claim to have.

Edit edit: For anyone else looking in on this, the above is sole reason to verify all information or you might look like a fool or foreign actor sowing misinformation like the commenter above.

So lets play this out, both parties was the same with Gaza yes?

Edit: If you are afraid to see how failed your logic is then by all means don’t answer.

So your argument is that the Democrats was not perfect and in the same arena was Trump throwing out fascist rhetoric and your end conclusion is to not vote because the Democrats was not perfect? I just want to make sure I understand yours as well as the non-voters logic. Because for those actually paying attention this was a pretty easy choice.

Edit: Help me understand why the blame gets passed onto the Democratic party entirely when the power to have stopped this was with the voters that decided to not vote.

I would have voted for shit on a wall before I would have allowed the chance of allowing Trump get in considering his rhetoric was nazi lite.

How about you all reflect on the fact that democracy only survives if you participate to protect it.

Nah, I blame those that did not vote. Given how load Trumps campaign was in their rhetoric means if you did not vote at all is just as good as voting for him. Democrats messaging my ass, atop blaming others when the non-voters need to look at themselves and ask themselves why did they allow this to happen when it was well within their power and right to stop it.

This comment section is truly something else, when all your rights are stripped away and the US descends further into fascism are you going to continue to blame the Democrats or realise the choice to vote against Trump was also an option?

Tough decision I know vote for the status quo where everyone was still relatively comfortable and all had rights or not vote and let the fascists in and watch all your rights get stripped.

Edit: The leopards are feasting on those that voted for Trump as well as those that did not vote at all.

You can prove this with studies. Whether one has been done or not is another case entirely, but I remain steadfast imo that the right is a breeding ground for toxic masculinity.

I would argue ( happy to be countered argued and if proof can be given who knows you might even change my mind) that conservatism is the reason for the rise toxic masculinity, ergo the right is a toxic thing to embrace? change my mind.

I googled this,

“Generally, *holding a US work visa does not require special permission to leave and re-enter the country, as long as your visa and the period of stay authorized by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) are valid“

So if you have a valid source for that I would be interested to see it. I won’t lie though even if you can produce anything it wont make me think of the US as anything but a shithole because that’s a shitty thing to have anyway.

That’s the US for you nowadays, basically uninviting, anti-freedom shithole.

More and more authoritarian.

Enough with that, it was the messaging that was the problem. Don’t try to say they predicted this when the Democrats own messaging caused this. /s

How do you cope with this much winning?

Sorry US, but you want to dickheads means we will find others to trade with. This is good and something Inhad feared for our farmers during this tarriffs BS. I hope more markets open up as the rest of the world continues to pull away from the US.

Lets work through this logic shall we. Lets say those companies setup production in the US, in the scenario where all required inputs are US based and produced then the only other determining factor for price increases would be wages. Do you think the end price would be cheaper or more expensive then what China can produce? In order to compete with China you have to have their level of wages in an economy that supports that low level of cost of living. Now lets see how scenario two plays out where at least some of the inputs still have to be imported, same result as before but just more costs to add onto the end product passed to the consumer.

This is a rather simplified outlook but I am curious if you can see what the dilemma would be those scenarios particularly for the US.

Authoritarianism in full display. No due process.

Even when statistical data supports these huge sweeping statements there will always be outliers but they will be few.

Given Leon’s blatant support of the Nazi’s. Then I believe the saying goes “If the shoe fits”.

Those that still use X is a nazi in my book.

just in time with those new tarriffs as well…. You guys are winning so much.

Well we did have AusAid, just got renamed to DFAT (Department Foreign Affairs and Trade), which do provide assistance to foreign nations but our scope is limited and as far as I could see we were not really buying any excess agricultural production to send off. I have to look into it because maybe we don’t or all of ours is absorbed into the Asian markets. But was thinking due to the US BS could be a good opportunity to still help our farmers while doing some good at the same time. Bang for our buck, when I saw the USAID doing it for their farmers before it was cut I thought its a great program that provides benefits across the board.
