Republicans in the US are just a-OK with all this illegal fuckery.

We say this like they're not also the same group chomping at the bit to be even more racist.

There are worse, more extreme people than trump in office.

A few are in the SCOTUS, and more than a few are in Congress.

'Illegal'

Babe what do you think that even means? What do you think a law is?

[–] sin_free_for_00_days@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago

Ah, you sweet summer child. What's 'illegal' mean when there are no consequences?

Come back when you hold anyone in the past 50 years accountable. Democrats or Republicans.

You know, I always thought WW3 would pit us against Russia or China, maybe North Korea. Venezuela wasn't that high in the list. It's like they're begging for a fight. If these boats can be tracked and destroyed, they could easily be intercepted by the military, and lives could be saved. Instead, we get people who think it's cool to swing the big stick and care not for who gets hit by it.

It's a fascist nation in need of a scapegoat

The world wars, to my limited understanding were really kicked off by a series of mutual defense alliances which pulled in a bunch of other countries. Is there anything like that for Venezuela?

Everyone who participated in these strikes needs to hang.

If the state doesn't do it, their kin need to die too. If they're doing it for 'the future of white children' we need to show that their actions lead directly to those children not having futures.

In that case you would need to hang sll your alive presidents since they are all war criminals

If trees don't have feelings, I don't see any problem with that.
