| Topic | Netanyahu Accuses Biden of Withholding Weapons for Gaza War |
| CoyoteTheGreat 06/18/24 4:01:21 PM #31 | ToteAll posted...
Swing voters are more likely to vote for Democrats who don't oppose Israel than leftists are of voting Republican because Democrats don't oppose Israel. Swing voters give fuck all about Israel, the only people in the country that care about it are religious extremists who aren't voting for Democrats and people specifically in DC getting money directly from Israel, and there is nothing that is going to get a leftist to vote for a Republican so talking about it is pointless, the question is whether they will stay home or not. What matters for Biden is that he looks incredibly weak. Israel can hop and skip over his lines in the sand and he will bow and scrape to them even after Netanyahu emasculates him in front of the Republicans in congress. Americans don't really give a shit about foreign policy, but they don't like their leaders to look weak, and the Israel-above-all policy has led to that for the Democrats. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

| Topic | Netanyahu Accuses Biden of Withholding Weapons for Gaza War |
| CoyoteTheGreat 06/18/24 2:35:09 PM #4 | I mean, yeah, he absolutely does, its always been very obvious that Israel prefers Trump and manipulates outcomes to support Republicans. Now, Biden gets no credit with people who love Israel above all, and none with progressives either because he refuses to stand up to Israel. And Democrats will still support Israel even though it is actively hostile to their party, because they don't care about winning.

He had a kid come out as Trans, didn't like it, and he got mad when people gave him shit for being upset about it. Its worse than that. Its because his ex who he wants to get back with is a hardcore right winger and the dude is in divorced dad mode. He ditched his trans kid just to appease that woman. Whatever gives him approval and love is what the dude will believe and promote, and it is much easier to get that from the right by being vile than it is to get it from the left. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

| Topic | So why would it matter if same sex relationships weren't natural? |
| CoyoteTheGreat 06/17/24 12:31:21 AM #3 | It really only matters because Catholics have their own bastardized version of the Aristotle philosophy of all things wanting to move in a certain direction, and thus moving against that direction and not towards your "end purpose" is both unnatural and against god's plan. Other Christians often adopt Catholic ideas without really knowing why or having that philosophical basis for it (For example, evangelicals used to not care about abortion before the 70's, until it became important for their leaders to adopt these ideas to win over the Catholics in the culture war to produce a united political front).
Philosophical consistency never really mattered to these people to begin with though. The idea was taken from a "pagan". If you look at the geneology of so many religious ideas, a lot of stuff is like that, where it ends up being very silly for people nowadays to still believe it. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

| CoyoteTheGreat 06/14/24 11:55:32 AM #13 | Its impossible to put out a valid election forecast in today's political system because crap data is purposefully flooding the datasets. Republicans demand overly optimistic polls, both to feed their egos, and because it offers them deniability if they lose (The election was stolen, just look at our polling!), so companies create the polls that there is a demand for.

https://www.reddit.com/r/SocialDemocracy/comments/1dcvnev/antisemitism_and_the_fight_for_democracy_panel/ This person is a fucking joke. Corbyn never engaged in anti-semitism, the accusations all came from the right and were embraced by the right of labor because it was politically convenient, and it was used solely as a character assassination. As a result, trans rights and many other issues are dead in the water now in labor politics because it was Corbyn's camp that was the only one who was for protecting them rather than being conservative-lite. Progressives have a problem, and it is allowing right wingers to use their values against them in bad faith. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

Well yes, but they shouldn't have gotten their way. Just as the Trump cultists should not get their way either. Things don't happen based on whether they should or shouldn't though. The KKK shouldn't have came back for another round of terrorism after its first iteration was defeated either, but they did. Rhetoric on how things should be is self-defeating, because if you think there is a moral arc to the universe, it is an excuse to not take the actions needed to stop what is happening. We are well past the point where the Republican party should have been criminalized, because they essentially just act like a mafia nowadays, but because Democrats are constantly in disbelief about how they persist even though they are against literally every single ideal of democracy that our country is supposed to be based on, they treat it like it is a just a phase the Republicans are going through that will stop at any moment. Its only going to get worse and more violent from here on out. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |
| Topic | Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition vs. Pathfinder 2nd Edition |
| CoyoteTheGreat 05/31/24 11:48:46 AM #9 | Like, there is no system where it is as much a joy to create a character, and where characters can be as unique, as Pathfinder 2e. But it is going to be too complicated and have too many options for some people, and you can end up with a shit character if you have no idea what you are doing. It isn't a system I'd recommend for a new player or one who isn't really that into TTRPGs and just wants to dip their toes in a little.
I'd say compared to Pathfinder 1e, it is just 100% a better system and the only reason a person would stick with 1e is they don't want to learn new stuff. DnD 5e on the other hand has benefits and drawbacks compared to 3.5e, so it isn't strictly a better system. It does feel like DnD though, which is more than I'd say for 4e. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

You don't get your way by making terrorist threats. These people will discover that the hard way. I think this is kind of naive. Terrorists often achieve whatever aims they've set out to do to America. The KKK ended reconstruction. Osama Bin Laden's strategy against the US worked exactly as he had intended it to. Terrorism can and does succeed in the US, and high minded rhetoric about democracy and rule of law doesn't do shit to combat it. --- Disobedience is the stamp of the hero. -Ragnar Redbeard Also, this is Kagata.. |

| CoyoteTheGreat 05/08/24 9:56:54 PM #12 | I mean, the problem for Biden is that politicians inside Washington fucking love Israel. His Democratic base has soured on Israel, and even his major donors have soured on it. But every interest group inside Washington and Democratic politicians are still addicted to all the money coming in to Israel, so he'd be dealing with a rebellion from shitty people like Josh Gottheimer and Fetterman who will represent Israeli interests over American ones every single time. He is in a lose-lose situation, and don't think that Netanyahu and his cronies don't know it. They want Trump to win, and will push their genocide farther and farther because it can only help Trump in the end to magnify the split between Washington democrats and the rest of the democrats in the country.
