Did you even read the post?

The more pressure there is to change course, the more likely it is Biden or Harris will have to do something or risk losing to Trump.

If they won't do or commit to do the things their voters are demanding of them, they deserve to be "hurt politically". What use is a politician who disregards the will of the people? If we can't draw a line at genocide, then what is the point of "lesser evil" voting?

Also I have seen zero evidence of anyone on the right speaking out against this administration's handling of Gaza.

American "justice" system at work. This really makes my blood boil to read. I hope this law is overturned, it's beyond absurd - its also malicious.

I think the implications are pretty clear when you read between the lines of painting your political enemies as pedophiles. It's a very easy way to rile people up into a lynch mob. Here's the fascist playbook on this: target a minority (LGBTQ in particular) as some kind of deviant or predator, legitimize vigilante violence against this group, extend that to the next group or anyone who tries to defend the first group. Rinse and repeat until you are able to consolidate power and successfully kill or imprison your political enemies with impunity.

Your mistake is in framing landlord as a job.

I love this take on religion.
Parallels with the "stupid or evil" assessment I always have to do for conservatives in general

Ah, this must be so they can "legally" keep killing aid workers. Truly, the most moral army in the world.

Gonna need some clarification here... are you saying that seeking an arrest warrant for Netanyahu is "stupid antics" or the Biden administration's defense of him is?

I'm sure the fact that Joe Biden started recently changing his tune on Israel had nothing to do with protestors, and is just because he's such a nice guy.

It's a completely valid question when the label "dangerous misinformation" is open to interpretation of whichever way political winds are blowing. There is no supreme arbiter of truth, and not every issue is black and white. I certainly would not enjoy a Donald Trump administration deciphering or filtering "truth" from "misinformation" for me.

I don't find that argument compelling at all without more of a source. As if we haven't already gone above and beyond in supplying arms and funding to Israel's government. Why should a piece of paper compel the United States to continue to unconditionally fund a genocide?
Let's not forget, Biden has gone out of his way to bypass Congress to provide further weapons to Israel. And his administration has repeatedly vetoed any UN resolutions pertaining to the situation.

You are solving for x. To separate x from the sin function, you should use the inverse sin function (or arcsin). Do this to both sides of the equation and you will be left with x = arcsin(0)

Wow, seems like highly unethical collusion.
