Don't ever underestimate Trump's stupidity.

What is the point in dying if it won’t make a difference

You wouldn't fight for your family sitting next to you? You wouldn't defend them with everything you have? Would you apologize to them for not doing anything to stop them being raped and beaten because "it wouldn't make a difference" anyway? Do you think it would change their view of you if you sat down when they needed you to stand up the most?

People in the comments (and West, in general) don’t understand how terrible war is.

Of course it's terrible. But have you thought about how terrible being subjugated by Russia would be? They already have a track record of kidnapping Ukrainian kids and doing who knows what with them.

Do you think once the war ends everything will be happy rainbows and cupcakes? Of course not. Conquering Ukraine is the first step in atrocities against its people.

It's amazing what a story hitting the news can do. This is why a free press is so important.

Climate change compounded with Trump cutting USDA funds and staff. They're the ones researching and fighting screwworms.

I've heard the main sticking point for negotiations is that the union wants to be paid for the time they're at work and not just for the time they're in the air, which is how they're paid now. They don't get paid for boarding, deboarding, cabin checks, etc.

Air Canada is insisting on demanding free labour from the cabin crews before and after their flights.

Fuck them.

A "copyright liability"?

Another reason we need to overhaul patent/copyright law.

Donald Trump is heavily linked to Jeffrey Epstein.

Because Trump is a weak little piss baby.

The most vocal anti-LGBT+ try to convince others, but mostly they're trying to convince themselves.
