If someone left their partner to be with you, they're capable of leaving you to be with someone new.

1. Dunno if you made this, ozma, but the women's march that everyone focused on didn't happen in 2021, it happened in 2017, the day after trumps inaguration. Sure, there have been ones almost every year since but the big one that drew the most attention was 2017. So if you made this you should fix that. If not then. I dunno. Just exist I guess.

2. The people saying "why aren't you protesting trump?" do not understand the point of protesting. Trump isn't able to be swayed and Harris is, I definitely agree with that sentiment.

3. I think the chants need to be better. Now I'm not a chant girl, but I still think they need to and can be better. The movement needs to focus on pushing Harris, and that doesn't have to mean saying, "we won't vote for genocide." There have to be ways to push her that aren't saying outright that you refuse to vote for her. Protesting during her speeches and events is great, but there's better ways to phrase it. Even just shaming her by somehow saying, "Come on, Kamala, you can do better." Again, I'm not a chant girl. I get the idea that the vote is all we have, but I don't think it is. Public shaming is a powerful thing, and you don't have to do that by saying you refuse to vote for her. Even in the dreamer protests back in 2012, they weren't all being so absolute with refusing to vote for Obama. They were mainly focused on shaming Obama into acting through chants and signs that called out his bs and appealled to his humanity. Shaming works.

4. This isn't a meme, it's a FAQ

Not a joke post. He uses wokie as an insult a lot. Soros is often brought up. And he always parrots Russian propaganda. Just a regular old bigoted putin lackey, being his usual self.

Here's the article I'm basing my comment on. This was from a week and a half ago I think? Maybe roughly 2 weeks.

Quote I'm referencing: "Activists say they don't expect a full-throated embrace of their platform — for the U.S. to stop selling arms to Israel — but say she must give them some indication that in a Harris presidency, U.S. foreign policy would shift." They're talking about how they don't expect an arms embargo, but want change. This is talking to the leaders of the uncommitted movement.

What you're saying is a shift from what they said back when the article was written. Which happens but is moving the goal posts. Course the article isn't that good at them talking about what they actually DO want. Good to know they said that in their meeting with Harris, I'll remember that for future.

We were never gonna get an arms embargo. It would have been nice, but that wasn't a thing that was realistically gonna happen. She's still wants a ceasefire. Still thinks the things happening in Gaza are a "humanitarian crisis," which isn't saying genocide but is still more than biden really did. The uncommitted movement, even in prior articles on here, said they're not expecting an arms embargo, just some sign that things will change. Like a ceasefire and some kinda peace deal. This is just her doing what everyone expected, including uncommitted organizers, supporting Israel but still pushing for change. Now, if the uncommitted organizers move the goal posts, that shows their not willing to compromise at all.

The article provides examples of anti democratic language and an example of a specific anti democratic comment from Mo Brooks. But then it says, "While members from both parties used antidemocratic rhetoric in their tweets, Republicans used it more frequently, by a ratio of more than 4 to 1. GOP members appeared to be targeting precisely the kind of voters to whom such language appeals strongly." The article does not provide what the anti democratic rhetoric from democrats was. It never says that democrats have been calling for overturning an election or any of the examples that the article provides early on. Just says "well yeah, both sides do it, but Republicans more." I'm suspicious that the anti democratic rhetoric that the democrats use is just calling a fascist a fascist. I guess I won't know, though, since they don't give me the examples they claim to have seen.

I get terrible hiccups. Painful terrible. Have since i was a kid. And they make a weirder sound than usual, if I'm in public people always whip their heads around to look at me. Anyway, pickles. When I'm hiccuping nothing has ever worked but then, once I started making my own pickles, I can now just eat a single pickle and be good. They'll be gone. I'm just glad I like pickles now.

Fuck off bigot. She's cis. Doesn't matter how she looks.

Cyprus is a great idea but it's ownership is also contested. Turkey and Greece fucking hate that the other claims ownership. Although the former Greek section is now it's own country, but there's still a small turkey section. Great idea, still contentious, even if less so.

Obviously, the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Mainly movies for me because I haven't read them. Extended editions, obviously.

But also, I adore the mass effect trilogy. Yeah, the rpg elements get gradually watered down, and the third ones ending isn't the best, but it's still an absolutely amazing Trilogy that I replay yearly. And it all came out in 5 years! Nowadays, single games have 5 years of dev time, at least. In my eyes, it's as perfect as it can be....Once it's been modded a bit.

I really appreciate you continuing the research here. It's definitely suspicious. Groups pushing for progressive ideals should be transparent, transparency is so important. Interesting to know that this isn't the first thing EDT has cofounded and not have the other founders listed.

I hope there is an actual journalist who can do more in depth research out there paying attention.
