Welcome to Progressive Politics! A place for news updates and political discussion from a left perspective. Conservatives and centrists are welcome just try and keep it civil :)
(Sidebar still a work in progress post recommendations if you have them such as reading lists)
Um, seems there's a good number of folks who've been trying to do something about that, actually. And the people who are starving Cuba right now are starving my neighbors too. I'm pretty opposed to starving people all around. And I want the people doing it tried for those crimes.
The people saying they haven't heard US citizens oppose what their govt is doing, just are trying to hear it. MuRicA bAd! No, American politicians are bad. American people are being disenfranchised by the wealthy, just like in Russia or China. I dont think all Russians or Chinese are bad people. I've worked with some wonderful Russian and Chinese people.
It's BadEmpanada, he's purposely divisive and has a bunch of odd takes that flop from one extreme to another. And this isn't me being critical of leftist, the guy has just gotten progressively weird over the years. The dude is a leftist who also supported regime change in Venezuela, and he's a transphobe. So I guess people contain multitudes.
what fucking bread? anyone getting any fucking bread?
Bread? In this economy?
Yeah ngl we have a lot going on with ice. Elites make it hard for everyone
Cuba has a lot going on. Most US citizens are completely fine.
I actually saw so many complaints about Greenday not using their full lyrics which I thought was funny because I didn't know they would be such easy pushovers.
Seems like a pretty weird complaint when given 5 minutes and 3 songs to blast through, they ended the set with American Idiot.
I can't imagine many people not understanding who "Idiot America" is. Any specific lyric inclusions would be incremental over that song itself being played.
And it's only "many people" because I've seen conservatives rocking out to Killing in the Name. The same people dumb enough to buy into Q shit and think "the Machine" is vaccine mandates aren't going to be enlightened by the full lyrics.
We’re also aiding Israel in starving and withholding humanitarian aid from Gaza while looking the other way while they break the ceasefire and we are still sending them billions in weapons and ammunition
