Hit all the right points. We just don’t deserve you Bernie.
Yes we do. And it’s why he’s trying so hard.
I don’t like your blankets anymore. Will you take these back?
I will. Thankfully smallpox isn’t transmitted by blankets, so thanks for the free blankets. :)
Well that’s not exactly correct as it can be spread by bedding it just depends how long since the infected person occupied that bedding. If the blankets have not been washed and they’ve been stored out of direct sunlight. The disease is spread by bodily fluids usually most virulent are the sores. However if it’s been greater than 24 hours and the blankets are dry then they should be safe.
If your username is a reference to Fort Pitt, the blankets were likely never used as a bio weapon to begin with. If they had been previously used by people who had smallpox the infection would have been an old one. Speaking of old infections some think it was one of the oldest diseases in human history.
Indeed. You could find one of the few posts I’ve submitted that says similar info with citations.
I believe you. Happy trails.
Did he call for a weapons embargo on israel or is he “trying to appeal to Netanyahu’s good side”?
I have not listened to his DNC speach, but back in january he introduced a resolution that would have invoked the legal requirement that US assistance not be used to commit human rights violations. It failed 72-11.
Back in April, he spoke in the senate opposing the $8.9 billion offensive military aid to Israel; after having introduced amendments to cut those provisions out. (If you read 1 link from this post make it this one).
As early as October 11, he was calling for the US to force Israeli restraint, and explicitly calling Israel’s responce a violation of international law
On October 25, he demanded information on how Israel was going to use the first aid package before it went to a vote in the senate, which was formally sent to Biden November 1.
At this point I stopped going through his press releases, because at this point, he just sounds like a Cassandra.
just sounds like a Cassandra.
I don’t have much to add, but thanks for showing me a new expression! I had to look it up because I had no idea what you meant ending like that lol
How is this anything other than PR? Biden has all the power to force a ceasefire. An arms embargo and threatening of sanctions would stop the genocide today.
Politics.
If Biden does the right thing Trump gains a new megaphone. BIDEN ABANDONED ISRAEL, Yada Yada Yada.
By their current cold calculus the momentum Trump could gain isn’t outweighed by what Harris stands to gain from it.
It’s evil. But that’s how they think. The dead are just numbers to them.
Also AIPAC would divert all of their money to the Republican party. They already have the NRA they don’t need AIPAC money
It sucks but we’re essentially living under Mafia rule
AIPAC already has diverted all their money to republicans. They took out Cori Bush in favor of a candidate who may as well be a republican
AIPAC needs to be declared a foreign lobby group and banned
Why not ask Bernie? Seems you know more than him.
Also since Bernie directly supports those folks you criticize why not ask him why he supports genocide or ask him specifically what actions he’s taking to stop it?
How is your BS anything other than PR as well?
And was promptly escorted off of the stage for this brazen act of antisemitism
He was given a loud round of applause, actually
I can’t believe everyone on that crowd is antisemitic smh
The problem with this kind of sarcasm is how many people mean it sincerely makes the sarcasm seem at least potentially not sarcastic.
It’s really hard to detect sarcasm these days because so many are conflating a fascist movement with Judaism. That confusion is totally not going to backfire at all later.
The problem with this kind of sarcasm is lemmy users are fucking idiots.
Skill issue
Yes, it is a skill issue on your part.
Someone failing to recognize the obvious because of stupid people multiple times is my fault, sure.
