No, you go after both. Powerful corrupt politicians create billionaires and billionaires make corrupt politicians powerful. If you only get rid of one half of the problem, you get rid of none of the problem in the long or even medium run.
How is he formed, though?
Racism, misogyny, broken political system from the 1700s, rampant corruption, billionaire-owned horserace-obsessed media wagging the dog, fascists being better at effective messaging than anyone else is at correcting the record, and the leadership of the other party yet again running a 1992 campaign in the 21st century.
Misspelled “dismantle and sell” in the headline.
I don’t know why the focus is on US emissions and not production.
We produced more fossil fuels under Biden than trump
That’s why. The sections of the billionaire-owned media that don’t deny anthropogenic climate change or pretend that it’s a good thing all have a vested interest in pretending that Dem leadership can do no wrong.
If the best we can ever do is slow down the increase of damage rate, we’re just mopping the deck of the Titanic while it goes down
It’s slavery as punishment. Which is still slavery.
It can be avoided by not committing crimes.
In a justice system functioning perfectly? Sure! In the US one, on the other hand…
It’s a distinction without much of a practical difference, yes, but I still think that not considering atrocities a deal breaker and being in favor of the atrocities should be distinguished between.
Can’t argue as effectively against a wrong conclusion if you don’t know the reasons for reaching it, is my point.
And yeah, you’re right about them already blaming everyone to the left of Reagan for the pro-Cheney campaign failing to defeat a personally repulsive fascist idiot 🤦
I completely agree. Just pointing out the technical difference between pro-zionism and harassing/othering anti-zionists for reasons only indirectly related 😉
Not really, only the ones who say that you should withhold support from all Democrats in a binary election system. And anyone who says anything that can possibly be interpreted as such. And quite a few where they have to invent the nonsupport out of whole cloth.
It’s not so much that they’re Zionists, it’s more that many of them are pro-Dem to the point where any dissent against any Dems, especially the leaders, gets the same ferocious reactions as when you criticize the Mango Mussolini amongst his fascist cult.
Or to put it another way: apart from understandable election pragmatism, there’s a lot of people there who cares more about pretending that their “team” is perfect than about holding the people supposed to represent them accountable for participating in countless crimes against humanity.

Nope. Even on !politics@lemmy.world, the most Neoliberal community on the most Neoliberal instance on Lemmy, pro-zionist comments are few and heavily downvoted, as they should be.
Absolutely. And also banking on both Americans and non-Americans to be unaware of the extreme pro-zionist, pro-cop, and pro-establishment bias of the NYT as well as the lies they keep spreading as a result.
You think zionism is extremely popular on Lemmy?? What the fuck have you been smoking?!
I honestly don’t understand
Could have just stopped there tbh.
From what I’ve seen, it is pretty accurate
It’s not. It’s the hobby of a right wing Zionist masquerading as a neutral and authorative arbiter of facts and bias.
For example, it rates The Guardian, Fox News and Breitbart as equally factual.
Is it that people see the comment count go up and expect a human comment to interact with, only to be disappointed and then downvote the bot?
That too, yes. Personally I have it blocked and get annoyed by there being no comments in stead.
If so, I’d suggest Lemmy/Mbin to not could comments made by bot accounts towards the total comment count.
Or just get rid of the biased and counterfactual bias and fact checker.
There’s so many things I want to say/shout right now, but I just can’t. I’m too fucking pissed off at the fascists and the people who lost to them by insisting on using the 1992 playbook one last time to adequately express it all 🤬
I swear on the Nile that I’m not in denial!
And then she emptied her bank account, having just learned the final security question answer.
