You’re misunderstanding the situation.

We’re not asking Kamala to get involved in a foreign war. We’re asking Kamala to end the US’s involvement in a foreign war.

I know it’s confusing, because Biden and Harris keep talking as if they’re doing all they can to stop the fighting. But the truth is, Biden and Harris are the ones providing the weapons.

but shouldn't we be more worried about the terrorists on our home soil before fighting foreign lands

Probably, which is why Harris should stop giving weapons and billions of dollars of war funding to Israel.

And the worst part is: I STILL don't know who the bad guy is. Israel? Palestine?

Again, I understand your confusion, because Biden and Harris keep talking about the need to protect Israel. But Israel is the one carrying out a genocide of innocent civilians (with US support).

MBFC: Least Biased

Lol. Now I see why no one likes Media Bias Fact Check.

My examples are proxy wars where the locals retiliated with "terrorism".

Doesn’t that describe Vietnam?

We're achieving our goals in Ukraine right now, as we did in all my examples above.

Is your point that the US goes to war to fund the military industrial complex rather than to achieve victory? Because otherwise I’m not understanding your point.

I don’t think any of those conflicts (including Ukraine) went the way the US wanted them to.

Don’t forget Vietnam and Korea.

The US is constantly enmeshed in wars, but when was the last time Americans actually won one? 1945?

That was 79 years ago. Almost one whole Biden.

Many countries with FPTP have multi-party systems, including Canada and the UK.

Just to elaborate, my first thought was: “I dislike this anti-Communist Cold War-era hysteria. I’ll post something to try to counter this hysteria.”

And then I realized: Wait. People are going to think I’m “defending” Russia against accusations of being Communist, and I’m tired of people attacking me for being “pro-Russia”, so I deleted it almost immediately.

So, basically, I’ve started to self-censor my thoughts because I find the toxicity of Lemmy exhausting. Go enjoy hunting your Reds under the Bed, and I’m going to do something better with my time, like go outside.

I really wanted Lemmy to work out, but it’s clear to me that this place is as bad as Reddit, just in a different way.

I decided it wasn’t worth arguing over.

Russia and the CCP?

Do I get paid twice?

Edit: Busted!

What does “Busted” mean? Do you think you’re on an episode of Mythbusters.

Anecdotes are not data. People's social circles are often echo chambers that don't reflect the entire population.

the only reason the old constitution hasn't been amended is because China regularly threatens to start a full scale war if there's any amendment to reflect the current reality

What makes you think that's "the only reason"? Because some people on reddit said so?
