If you don't understand what a big middle finger he is giving you, the average American, then you have to read up on the meaning of the novel. Trump doing this is very much
a self own, which he obviously doesn't understand. It is still completely tone-deaf to hold such a party, when the government shutdown has furloughed many hundreds of thousands government employees, and makes many work without getting paid. It was held just hours before millions of Americans lost their federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits due to a government shutdown.
Maybe Trump saw the movie, and saw Leonardo DiCaprio playing a character who had a dream and won. This is how he sees himself, a winner of the American dream.
(of course he isn't, his father was, and he is just a nepo-baby)
Trump clearly likes the spectacle of the Roaring Twenties, the glittering parties, the jazz, and the dizzying wealth. He is turning the White House in a tacky display of opulence,
just like his homes. This is his ideal, and he doesn't understand how the story, which the movie doesn't do justice much, makes it out to be a hollow and tragic existence.
He doesn't understand how the novel was intended as a social critique, exposing the harm the wealthy inflict on society. Through the characters and events of the novel, it illustrates how wealth leads to moral decay, carelessness, and ultimately, tragic consequences.
The character amassed his fortune during the Prohibition era through an association with the notorious gambler and mobster Meyer Wolfsheim. His main enterprise involved bootlegging, primarily by operating a chain of drugstores as fronts to illegally sell alcohol over the counter. The parties are heavily related to the use of alcohol during Prohibition.
It would be even worse, if Trump does understand the meaning of the movie. It means that he knows what role he is playing in the world. It's a possibility, because he has been talking about not going to heaven. However, then he must also understand the image he is leaving with this party. Since he cares a lot about how he is remembered (he wants a Nobel Peace Prize and his face on Mount Rushmore), I don't think he is capable of the self-mockery.
To be clear, I didn't read the novel, I just saw the movie, understood the idea behind it, and found people on YouTube talking about it. When I heard that Trump had a Great Gatsby party, I first thought that people who criticized him for it, called it that. I thought that was very appropriate. I just found out that Trump himself INTENDED the reference to The Great Gatsby, because he called it "A little party never killed nobody", which is the title of the song by Fergie, which was made for the movie. My reaction was of deep contempt. It's not his worst act of disrespect to the American people, by a long shot, but it might be one that gets recognized as it, by most Americans. So, I'm here talking about it, to hear about it from you. How do you like your president holding a lavish party, with wealthy people, that he himself referenced to The Great Gatsby, (now) knowing the meaning of it?
Emergent Self-Awareness in Vegetables: A Concerning Development
Earlier this month, researchers at the University of Helsinki reported what appears to be
the first case of sentient plant matter: a bell pepper exhibiting facial expressions consistent with fear. Subsequent tests showed measurable electrical activity when the specimen was approached with a knife.
Within days, similar phenomena were observed in other produce, particularly root vegetables and leafy greens. One cabbage was recorded rotating itself slowly away
from sunlight, “as if attempting concealment,” according to the study.
The implications are profound. Ethical committees worldwide are now debating whether harvesting vegetables constitutes harm, effectively rendering veganism, long considered the most ethical dietary choice, a moral paradox.
As of today, no safe, guilt-free food source has been identified. Experts recommend consuming only minerals “until further notice.”

I don't know what you mean with "in theory". Do you understand that your freedom
of speech is dependent on someone else's freedom of speech?
If you can say by law: "I fucking hate 'N-word's", is it then also legal by law to say:
"If you say the 'N-word', I fucking kill you!"? It's all just speech isn't it?
That's why your Supreme Court has interpreted the amendment to allow for specific, narrow exceptions or limitations on certain categories of speech that are considered unprotected or have lesser protection. The government may regulate these types of speech, which include:
- Incitement to "imminent lawless action"
- True Threats
- Fighting Words
- Defamation
- Obscenity and Child Pornography
- Commercial Speech (false or misleading advertising)
- Content-neutral time, place, and manner restrictions to expressive activity
So, do you think there should be 'truly freedom of speech', which is being able to say,
whatever you want say, without legal repercussions?
Or do you think there should be some legal limits?
I don't understand why you add 'unashamedly'. I would say that shame over speech is either dependent on your own morality or on the morality of 'common sense', which we are all contributing to. In any case, everyone is 'free' to say shameful things, because it doesn't result in restrictions of your literal freedom (prison, fines or damages). If you are ashamed yourself, by your own speech, that means that you stepped over your own norms of what is socially acceptable. If you get shamed by other people for your speech, it means that you stepped over THEIR norms of what is socially acceptable. For being able to say anything unashamedly, it means dropping all norms of what is socially acceptable.
One consequence is that any man can approach any women to express all his sexual desires, in explicit detail, even if he controls her professional and financial future.
I would say that dropping all social norms would be deleterious to society.
Stepping over norms what is socially acceptable to say, could result in people not liking you and excluding you socially and professionally. We call that cancellation nowadays.
To achieve free speech with regards to shame, cannot be accomplished by law. It means that society drops all social norms for how we treat each other. It means that people can say whatever they want to you, no matter how hateful or terrifying, without you thinking:
"I don't want to deal with this person anymore.".
Is this the world you want to live in?
Would it be possible in theory? What kind of society would it result into?
Or is the whole concept of society based on what is socially acceptable?
It's always "free speech for me, but not for thee".
I agree that being offended is not a reason to take people's speech away, but that's not what she is defending. Most of her ilk is defending literal incitement, threats, defamation and doxing, which is indeed 'offensive', but also puts people in danger, because there are always stupid people who act on the words of someone who thinks that they are only being 'offensive'.
She will probably also attack 'the left' for getting Charlie Kirk killed.
No one actually did incitement, threats, defamation or doxing against him,
but the left still gets blamed. If she wants 'true freedom of speech', I hope
she defended every liberal and lefty who ever criticized Charlie Kirk and defended
Jimmy Kimmel. Do I even have to look to know that she obviously didn't do that?
The fact that all your favorite politicians are still alive,
is evidence that Obama isn't doing what you think.
When liberals start killing, you wouldn't know what hit you,
because they outsmart you 10 to 1.
Don’t forget the largest armed force in the world are the hunters in the United States 🇺🇸 and 90 percent of them are republicans
Don’t take my word for it look it up for yourself
When you want to kill a snake, you cut off the head.
Sure, the tail will flop around aimlessly for a while, but it will die soon.
That's you, 'not knowing what hit you'.
That's why it's stupid to think that there is a mastermind behind Charlie Kirk's murder, unless it's right-wingers or Netanyahu. Charlie Kirk was a grifter for your cause, but he was having second thoughts about the genocide, mostly because
the young people he caters to don't like it. There is even a record of Charlie saying that he was afraid of getting killed for his defiance against Netanyahu and Trump.
Here is Netanyahu, feeling the need to reject the idea, in his own paper.

That's a strong confirmation of my claim.
Anyone with a brain understands that killing Charlie Kirk would not help liberals and lefties. It removed ONE voice in thousands, and that voice was starting to diverge from the rest. Someone who is NOT diverging will fill his shoes.
It might be his widow, who is has been grifting off his death, before he was even in the ground. It's a sickening display, even for me, who really didn't like Charlie Kirk, but at least admired some of his skills. He was a goldmine for analysis of truth twisting and debating tricks. I miss him a lot more than Trump misses him.
Here is the grieving widow, dressed like a couch, to woo her new love:
Bye Usha!
It's your own side that claims that Charlie Kirk feared Netanyahu.
Since the murder, one weird claim after another has been surfacing.
The constant redressing, the constant assembly and disassembly of the rifle, the messages that don't sound like a young adult who was fully engaged in gamer culture, but confirm every move in the FBI story. It's exactly what you expect from a corrupt and incompetent FBI, which is what it turned into under Kash Patel.
He has shown the world what a bad liar he is, when he claimed that there is no credible information that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked women and under@ge girls
to anyone other than himself. Really? What about the island and all those flights?
Prince Andrew lost his royal style, titles, and honours, including the title of "prince" and "His Royal Highness", because of Epstein's trafficking. Maybe Patel thinks that YOU are stupid enough to believe him, but the rest of the world doesn't have shit in their heads.
It's also several people on your own side who have expressed public criticism
or even outrage over the interaction between Erika Kirk and J.D. Vance.
If this happened between liberals, you would not shut up about it for years.
She said on camera: “No one will ever replace Charlie, but I do see some similarities of my husband in JD, Vice President JD Vance,”. Note how she put "but" in that sentence. She is definitely thinking about replacing Charlie, there.
Before that even happened there was already talk about Usha wanting a divorce.
ANd this is complicated too.
with what genitals they were born, all make me very happy.
It was appropriated by white libs, who added lots of other meaning to it, and later twisted by right-wingers to mean whatever the most extreme lefty green-haired teenage lesbian can think of, and then accuse every liberal of supporting that.
However, you also love racial prejudice and social injustice.
We all have the same rights already because the constitution says so.
Some like to play victim and blame their circumstances instead of admitting they are lazy bastards not willing to make the effort to overcome obstacles.
The Constitution says a lot of things, it doesn't guarantee that you respect it.
If there are more obstacles for some groups of people than other groups of people, that IS social injustice.
there is no stream that leads to convincing the closed mind.
My mind is not closed, matter of fact, I would say it is more open than yours.
Reason i say that is you are totally unwilling to accept the fact that some folks are simply evil, simply lazy, simply waiting for handouts, and they LOVE your mindset of free health care, free food ,free housing and on. it leaves them worry free to do more evil, lay around in bed and get fat ON YOUR DIME.
I have never said that I don't accept that some folks are simply evil, simply lazy, simply waiting for handouts, I just don't accept you making it an argument for EVERYTHING. That idea is rejected by all the great results of public systems, everywhere in the world.
There is no such thing as free health care, free food, free housing, there are
2 options: privately funded and publicly funded. When it's privately funded, someone is making a profit and the people have limited control over it.
When it's publicly funded, no one is making a profit, only people who work in it get paid and the rest goes back into the system, and the people have democratic control over it. This is undeniable.
One example, your healthcare system or the British NHS. Both crap, but the British system achieves a higher life expectancy and a lower infant mortality at less than half the price, because you have private, for profit insurance and they have a single-payer, publicly funded universal system.
I have told you this many times, they are just straight up facts, it should be basic knowledge to you, but you keep saying these nonsense straw-men. That means your mind is closed to even INDISPUTABLE arguments. I'm not even talking about what is better, you're just unwilling or incapable to even UNDERSTAND it. When you keep saying 'free', it means your mind is completely closed.

After the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014, "stay woke" became a rallying cry for BLM activists to raise awareness of police brutality and racial injustice.
2014–2017: Mainstream adoption. As the BLM movement gained national and online prominence, white liberals increasingly adopted the term "woke". Initially, this was an attempt to signal their support and act as allies for racial justice. During this period, the term began to be applied to a wider range of social justice issues, a trend that accelerated on social media platforms like "Black Twitter".
2017: Recognition and dilution. In 2017, the Oxford English Dictionary added "woke" to its official entries. Some linguists and critics argue this mainstream recognition formalized the term's "semantic bleaching", a process where a word loses its original, specific meaning through wider usage.
2019: Co-option by the right. The term had been weaponized by right-wing commentators and politicians who used it pejoratively to dismiss progressive ideas. This conservative co-option was a direct response to the term's adoption
by progressive activists, including many white liberals.

BUT aside from that, you are talking about trying to make peace with a terrorist group. Not a group of disgruntled miners. You can't expect terrorist to keep their word. They actually dug up 1 hostage and re returned him!! nasty barbarians.

Netanyahu orders Israeli military to carry out strikes on Gaza immediately
Daniel Keane and Harriette Boucher
At least eight people have been killed after the Israeli prime minister ordered his military to immediately carry out “powerful” attacks on Gaza.
His presidency boosted Trump's net worth by $3 Billion, in a year.
That's because all the presents from the people he does favors for.
In June, Trump’s clemency actions have relieved persons of about $1.348 billion in fines, restitution and forfeitures. However, various news-and-analysis sources indicate that the total number of clemency actions (pardons + commutations) by Trump in 2025 exceeds 1,600 as of mid-year.
Trump has set up a system of unchecked corruption, with selling his worthless products for ridiculous prices, crypto scams, NFTs, coins, $1 million-per-plate fundraising dinners and $1 million golf club fees. There is clear evidence of 'quid pro quo', but with the DOJ in his pocket and the Supreme Court that made him immune to the law, he can be as corrupt as he wants, with full support, and complete denial from his supporters.
Recent events include:
- October 2025: Trump hosted a dinner at the White House for wealthy donors who pledged contributions to a $200 million ballroom project.
- May 2025: A $1.5 million-per-head dinner was held for "crypto and AI innovators"
to raise money for the MAGA Inc. super PAC.
- March and April 2025: Several "candlelight dinners" at his Mar-a-Lago estate and his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club were reported to have a $1 million per plate cost.
- April 2025: Another $1 million-per-plate dinner was held for the MAGA Inc. super PAC in Washington, D.C
When events are hosted at Trump-owned properties, such as Mar-a-Lago or his Bedminster golf club, his businesses receive direct payments from the super PAC for venue rental, catering, and other services. Some dinners have been linked to the promotion of his personal business ventures. For example, a $1 million-per-head dinner for crypto and AI innovators reportedly involved some attendees paying for their seat using Trump's own branded cryptocurrency, the value of which he and his business partners personally profit from.
The MAGA Inc Super PAC has raised $198.9 million between the election and the end of June. The nonprofit Securing American Greatness, which is a dark money group because it does not disclose it donors, is raising unknown sums. Anonymous sources claim that the two groups together have raised $400 million. Those PACs have also advertised on Truth Social, providing Trump with personal income, as the majority shareholder. However, other Republican politicians primarily provide financial benefit
to Donald Trump by using political funds from the MAGA Inc Super PAC to pay for services at his private businesses.

Trump is also, at this very moment, gearing up to start a war with Venezuela.
That's why he is blowing up those boats. He is building a case against them.
No one believes that Venezuela is smuggling a lot of drugs to the US,
but Trump wants Venezuela's OIL. Here he is admitting to it, 2 years ago.

Cocaine Transit, not Production: Venezuela is not a major producer of cocaine; production is concentrated in Colombia, Peru, and Bolivia. Due to its location and weak state institutions, Venezuela serves as a transit country for a portion of Colombian cocaine, but it is not the primary route to the U.S..
Marginal Route: U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) data consistently shows that the vast majority of U.S.-bound cocaine (around 74-80%) is trafficked through the Pacific Ocean via Central America and Mexico, not the Caribbean. DEA reports in recent years have not even mentioned Venezuela in their cocaine sections.
Fentanyl Claims Baseless: Experts and U.S. agencies agree that Venezuela plays virtually no role in the production or trafficking of fentanyl to the U.S.. Fentanyl is primarily manufactured in Mexico using precursor chemicals from China and smuggled over land across the U.S.-Mexico border.
Lack of Public Evidence: The Trump administration has not publicly provided concrete evidence, intelligence, or data to support its claims that the boats it struck were carrying drugs, let alone the quantities or types of drugs alleged.
Intelligence Community Contradictions: A classified assessment by the U.S. National Intelligence Council reportedly contradicted the administration's claims, finding no evidence of coordination between senior Maduro officials and specific drug cartels like Tren de Aragua.
While Trump denies planning a full-scale war, the U.S. has a significant military presence in the region, is conducting lethal operations, and is implementing policies focused on weakening the Maduro regime and its control over the country's OIL resources.
That's admitting it's about the OIL, while denying it's about the OIL.
It's 100% sure not about the drugs.

That Republicans have a problem with gay marriages is to be expected, but I hear

No loss of jobs,just moving some after training and simply not hiring more.
Is that the best you can come up with, to defend what you used to dislike?
I could have predicted that you would flip on the one pro-worker idea you ever had.
I am OK with people working less, but AI isn't going to do that. It's just creating more profit for the wealthy and people needing to work for less money, if they want to eat.

Florida is going a step further to stop people's tax money from buying junk food and drinks. only registered users can see external links
if you are working and paying for it, then the privilege of buying what you want is there for the taking. But when you are depending on a hand out compliments of all the taxpayers, you should only be getting exactly what you need to be healthy and as reasonably priced as possible. I really think they need to go back to the "government cheese" system, where the government gives FOOD directly to the needy, no chance to waste money or credits that way and the folks get good basic food
This is just an argument to do so. Most food that is affordable in your country
can be described as 'junk food'. It will require MORE money, if you want poor people
to eat healthier. The prices of fruit, vegetables, fish and unprocessed meat are still
on the rise, because of Trump deporting 'illegal' workers, because of his tariffs,
and because of the devaluation of the dollar.
Key Price Trends (September 2024 - September 2025):
Meats, poultry, fish, and eggs: +5.2%
Meats (unprocessed): +8.5%
Fruits and vegetables: +1.3% (largely due to lucky weather conditions)
This is not DOGE, but the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act", resulting in cuts.
It's not smart to make people hurt, when you have a Republican in office.
Most people blame the president for that, even if he didn't cause it (Biden).
When people can clearly see that the president caused it, they will punish your party for it.
That is why Trump is pushing the strongest gerrymandering ever. Cheating, as always.

The importance of thieves in our economy*
*The teacher told the children to write an essay on thieves for tomorrow.*
A seventh-grade student, Buddhi Prakash, wrote such an essay:
▪️ "Thieves are the backbone of the country's economy."
▪️ People might think this is a joke or wrong, but it's actually a subject worth considering.
▪️ Safes, cupboards, and locks are needed because of thieves. This gives work to the companies that make them.
▪️ Because of thieves, windows in homes have grills, there are doors, doors are locked, and not just that, there are additional doors for security outside. So many people get work.
▪️ Due to thieves, a compound is built around houses, shops, and societies; there are gates, a guard stays at the gate 24 hours, and there is also a uniform for the guard. So many people get work.
▪️ Because of thieves, not just CCTV cameras and metal detectors but also cyber cells exist.
▪️ Because of thieves, there are police, police stations, police posts, patrol cars, batons, rifles, revolvers, and bullets. So many people get work.
▪️ Because of thieves, there are courts, judges, lawyers, clerks, and bail bondsmen in the courts. So many people get work.
▪️ Because of thieves, there are jails, jailers, and police for the jails. So many people get work.
▪️ When things like mobile phones, laptops, electronic devices, bicycles, and vehicles are stolen, people buy new ones. This buying and selling strengthen the country's economy and give work to many people.
▪️ If a thief is highly recognized and famous, then media from home and abroad also get their livelihood.
After reading all this, you must also be convinced that thieves are the backbone of the entire government system and a means of livelihood for the people in society.
So with this in mind, liberal thinking is to hell with walmart, lock makers and police and jail building are the new careers of choice of the future?

Yes, this accident happened to and/or because of someone that happened to be an “illegal immigrant” but it very well could have been caused by an inexperienced 18 year old American that was texting , a middle age American distracted because they were on their telephone OR a senior American experiencing a major health crisis. The man involved in this incident was illegally using an expired license belonging to a family member (this scenario could also fit a birthright citizen), right?
The truck/car fatality that I recall from months ago involved an illegal who quickly acquired his CDL license on the west coast who chose to use the (I don’t know if there’s a specific name) access between roads that is designated police and emergency vehicles. Yes, that truck driver was using that access way to make an illegal left turn with his 18 wheeler and turned in front of a passenger vehicle. Perhaps I rely too much on YouTube and television, in my mind’s eye, driving looks like a “free-for-all” in many countries.

Maybe it's not the condoms they are embarrassed about, but the size.
When I used them, I needed XL condoms. Not for the length, but for the circumference. Of course, they don't know that, if you buy them. People think
you have a 8.5 inches schlong, while almost half isn't getting rolled out.
there is discussion locally of a "no kings" protest happening this coming weekend. It has been determined that anftia is funding the no kings protest.
so not only are the people idiots, we aint had a king since the 1700's, but now they are linked to a terrorist group for the cash.
but Trump sending the national guard to American cities is not.
He's saying it's an 'emergency' and you are saying everything is fine.
That's you telling me clearly that you know Trump is lying.
They are holding "no kings" protests, because Trump is giving himself more power than any president and king since the 1700's ever had in the US.
It's the exact thing that the founding fathers tried to prevent.
They intended for the Legislative branch (Congress) to make laws, the Executive branch (President) to enforce laws and the Judicial branch (Courts)
to interpret laws. Trump wants to nullify them all and BE the law.

People like you are so annoyed because you don’t take the time to analyze or comprehend the situation, the facts, the nuances. In short, to you it’s just a knee jerk reaction you try to fit in your narrow way of thinking.
will a person you care about have to die to understand drugs and pot are bad?
you expect justice for dope dealers and drug runners but don't give a rats ass about the victims of dope heads and their crimes.
Doing what you are championing will eventually result in you being taken to a dark basement where no one will hear your screams. At least, no one that cares.
It's only fun and games, if it's done for fun and games.
I'm sure that you can find some people who are willing to provide it,
with a happy end, instead of a painful and permanent end.
Maybe it was exciting in the end, but I'm sure it could have been just as exciting,
but less terrifying, if they had just seduced you (assuming you were of age).
These elevated THC levels suggest recent use, as THC can impair driving by slowing reaction times, impairing coordination, and affecting judgment. The study's findings remained consistent even after Ohio legalized recreational cannabis in 2023, highlighting that legalization did not reduce the prevalence of THC in fatal crashes.
However, it's important to note that the presence of THC in a driver's system doesn't necessarily prove impairment at the time of the crash. Unlike alcohol, which has a clear legal threshold for impairment, THC's effects can vary based on individual tolerance, timing of use, and other factors. Additionally, the study did not account for other substances that may have been present, such as alcohol, prescription medications,
or other drugs, which could also contribute to impairment.]
I agree, drugs and pot are not good for your health, and they can of course be dangerous when driving under the influence. So does alcohol. Alcohol remains a leading cause of traffic-related fatalities in the United States, surpassing both illegal and legal drugs, including cannabis. However, they will never outlaw alcohol again, because they found out the hard way, that it will cause MORE problems than it will solve.
Why don't you take that knowledge and apply it to drugs and pot?
You want your right to own guns, no matter how many people it kills.
Other people want the right to use pot or the occasional line of coke.
That's called liberty. You regulate it, to reduce harm.
Legalize, tax and regulate, combined with improvement of (mental) healthcare.
That's the recipe to reduce those traffic deaths, ODs AND drugs related crime.
The fact that you don't support it, shows that YOU don't care about people's lives.
Drugs would just become another cash cow in the same way.
it should all be outlawed, users jailed until clean.
No, they FAFOed, and created organized crime, with the Prohibition.
People were just as drunk as before, but it created more problems.
You have tried it your way for DECADES. It didn't work.
It can only work, if the repression is worse than the actual problem.
Everywhere they tried it my way, it works. Less suffering, on all fronts.
And especially; more freedom. I like freedom. I don't think you do.
I wouldn't like to be frisked 10 times a day by militarized cops.
I like my streets to be clear of criminals AND COPS.

RFK Jr.is pushing medicine for Big Pharma.
and they do make me weak as water.
I want my doctor to discuss with me what's best for me, and base their advice
on medical science. I don't want politicians taking money from big pharma and then
push drugs on people for financial gain, even though I work for them.
trouble is, it is down about 140 over 83 or so on average when i check it, but i have to take coq10 to try to offset the fatigue or i wouldn't be able to get out of bed. I am hoping a appointment the end of this month will lead to more info as to the chest pain and shortness of breath that i have had to deal with since november of last year. that is the thing about the medical field that bugs me, oh if you have these symptoms, tell your dr, so i did. take this pill and come back in a month, ok, that's helping take this pill at night. and then came the antidepressant for the so called anxiety, which i tossed in the cabinet and refuse to take as I don't have it, i just have issues with sleep and chest pain and shortness of breath damn it. So after damn near a year, I finally will get to see a heart dr.

I don't know if you all will be able to read it or not but a woman is dieing or already dead because she wanted to prove that Trump was wrong. and the baby is at risk as well.
question is for you all, do you all hate Trump bad enough to risk killing yourselves to prove him wrong on something?
The main point of this story is: Trump is fucking stupid.
For everyone who believes there might be something to Trump's big news,
here's a video that might cure you from "being fucking stupid":
Tylenol is the Cause of Autism! (According to Trump and RFK Jr.)

Trump makes idiotic claims every day. I only spend time on what he's trying to achieve
with his idiotic claims. Creating distrust in modern medicine is harmful, but I'm not making my own medical decisions on what Trump says. People who are listening to him for medical decisions, are indeed risking their lives and the public at large.
I think she was just suffering pain, caused by your deteriorating healthcare system.
Or, she was just trying to kill herself, because he couldn't stand to live
in a country that is reliving 1920's Italy or Germany's 1930's.
I'm sure that many Jews committed suicide in those times.
Were they trying to 'prove' anything?
You just asked me for reputable sources. Did you find any for this?
I don't consider Facebook and X reputable sources.
You guys still show your hate for Hillary Clinton on a daily basis,
and she wasn't even president.
Trump is having a negative effect on EVERYONE in the world.
He's turning away from allies and turning to dictatorial regimes.
He's committing treason on a daily basis and turning the US fascist.
He is also trying to help fascists in other countries, even neo-nazis in Germany.
We have many good reasons to hate him.
People like Cat and me are not going to do something stupid for hating Trump,
we will be smart and strategic, and only sacrifice something if it is useful.

I hear Pete Hegseth is planning to fire many of the generals that are not fully on his side. Trump is of course afraid that they will act on their oath to defend The Constitution,
so he only wants generals who are loyal to HIM, NOT to The Constitution.
We all know that he wants to do this, the question is WHEN.
If that happens, that's a time that all liberals and lefties need to sacrifice something big.
Be ready to join the general strike if you are still working, to stop paying your bills and only spend money on food, when that happens. You need to completely shut down the country, when the fascist is going for your military. They are your LAST LINE OF DEFENSE.
Hitler did the same thing, and there was NO WAY BACK after it.
Cat, take out some cash, to be able to pay for food, for months (if need be).
I take to much tylonol but i woulda been a drug addict had i took what the dr's prescribed. that oxycodone, messed with my head to much.
I have found that 3 325 mg asprin do a good job and use that sometimes.
It has been used many billions of times by now, all over the world.
That means that the medical and science institutes know the risks of it very well.
It is not associated with more harmful side effects than naproxen (Aleve), ibuprofen
or "even" acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin). In fact, from that list, Aspirin is the most risky.
The safest for short-term use is ibuprofen (at the lowest effective dose) and Tylenol is the safest of the three, long-term. Only extremely high doses can damage the liver.
All three drugs can damage the stomach, which is why it's always best to combine them with drugs that protect the stomach lining, like Omeprazole (Prilosec or Losec).
What personal preferences people might have, is not necessarily based on evidence.
My mother has been a pharmacy assistant for decades.
Would you accept her as some 'authority' on painkillers?
We have created institutes to research and inform the public about the risks
vs the benefits of drugs, so we don't have to trust the opinions of random people.
The people who love us want the best for us, but that doesn't mean they are correct
on everything. Where did your father get that information? Did he take all those drugs until they did damage to him at different rates, did he trust someone else who told him, did he trust some conspiracy theories, or did he trust science from institutes?
If you just trust him, YOU don't even know the original source, while he did.
Trump and RFK Jr. are breaking down those institutes, because they want you to trust their personal opinions, which are based on conspiracy theories for political and religious agenda's, rather than science and the public benefit.
That is dangerous and it WILL cause the death of many MORE people.
I say 'MORE', because the ignorance they support and the distrust it creates
has already caused the deaths of millions of people.
All the problems of the world have been trumps fault for the last 80 years right
Many Americans are, because treating the cause of their pain is expensive.
That's not Trump's fault, but he is making it WORSE.
RFK Jr. and Trump are now saying Tylenol is causing autism.
Do you have anything to say about that?
I was prescribed oxy for my pain at first. then later when it wasn't helping without messing up my brain they tried the fentanyl patches. oh that stuff will hide the pain of decapitation i believe, it powerful, problem was ,again ,it messed with my head to much. I had no real choice but to go to the tylonol and bc powders because they didn't affect my brain. I could function. I still hurt but it shaves the top off the pain to speak.
the problem is anannas the dr's won't FIND and FIX the problem causing the pain. just mask it and charge for a visit.
that is not Trumps fault, or even obama's. that is the systems fault that you support ,cheap pharmaceuticals. pills for ills.
I am sure folks like leo that apparently don't have much of a life or responsibility, think it is perfectly fine to be doped up all day on the couch. But not folks like myself. The couch is for lazy or Very tired people.
I want to take out the financial incentive as much as possible.
The best way to do that, is to make it a public service.
I want independent scientists to develop the best prevention, cure or treatment for every illness, condition or injury. If there is a profit incentive for the pharmaceutical industry, they will prefer treatment over cures. They will also make everything more expensive than it has to be. If it's all funded by taxes, we the people have an incentive to demand the best healthcare, for the lowest price. It benefits everyone, when people are healthy and are able to work and maximize their potential.
It makes no sense to keep people relatively comfortable, but unable to perform,
with pain medication, if you can invest in their healt long-term, with an operation.
That only happens in a system that minimizes costs, FOR PROFIT, while overall
harming society.
To me this is a asshole,

a knife attack results in a cop shooting someone TRYING to save lives by holding back what i would consider a terrorist.
I hope the cop has to pay the family well for killing their loved 1. IF UK and other countries are so critical of our gun crimes, it is only fitting we expect to see them set a high example. Perhaps rake the cop over the coals and give him prison time? I mean really, uk thinks we are so bad, sheesh, hollar some of their own medicine back at them

This is how he argued; by breaking the ongoing argument, with false points.
He bombarded the opposition with too much falsities to ever debunk them all.
It's a good strategy to convince people who don't know anything, but it's not "debating".

The fellow complaining at the end about it "not being real" Well hells bells, it's all pretend and acting from Hollywood and commercials anyway! Nothing real about hollywood to begin with. They are just whining because they might have to go to work doing something else. The way I look at it, these same whiners are the same 1's that claim coal is dirty and the coal miners can just go find other work. Far as I am concerned, the actors can just go find other work.

Well, sir, let me tell you what an American is. He’s the type of person that says, “I may not agree with you, but, I will fight to keep your right to say so.”
During the Obama years and the Biden years, both of you BS’d enough to fill an encyclopedia and now? You don’t like us criticizing your cult leader. Suck it up. 👿
A good buddy of mine summed it up 1 time with his mother that was a diehard democrat.He had been 1 up until obama and he saw the light and decided he had enough when his diesel fuel got to be expensive.
His mother got on him so bad about voting for Trump in 2016 and he said "Mom, if the devil ran as a democrat and God ran as a Republican, you are so diehard democrat you would vote for the devil wouldn't you?
And that to me sums it up how folks like you think.
"Mom, if the devil ran as a democrat and God ran as a Republican, you are so diehard democrat you would vote for the devil wouldn't you?”
That’s rich. You voted president a convicted felon, a man that cheated on his wife with a porn star while his wife was pregnant with his youngest son. A man who raped, cheated, and fomented a coup attempt. And now you want to say we are cult like?
Go tell it to someone that cares. This joke of a “president” should be in jail and not in charge of the nuclear codes.
Honey, how deluded you are. I appreciate your worry about what you perceive as my “lonely” life. Phart, I have three children, two sons and a daughter. The youngest is 44. I have six grandchildren. I have many friends, several who have been my friends since grade school. Three of them are diaper buddies. I have friends in, at least, twelve states. Between my direct family and the extended families there’s over sixty people that we get together on holidays. Seldom does a weekend go by when don’t have someone stopping by. Even my ex, WOODY, visits regularly.
So, please don’t worry about my “solitude”. I get plenty of interaction with many people from both sides of the political spectrum. My youngest son and daughter-in-law voted for the Clown. My best friend, someone who is deeply religious, and someone I’ve known since I was three, is a diehard MAGA Trump follower and, you know what? We make our friendship work. Yes, I do have interaction with REALITY. That’s why my views are what they are.
President Obama's peace efforts focused on both diplomacy and military restraint, with a goal of reducing U.S. involvement in the region.
Key initiatives included:
2009 Cairo Speech: Obama's address to the Muslim world sought a "New Beginning" in U.S. relations and included strong calls for a two-state solution based on 1967 borders.
Direct peace talks (2010): The Obama administration initiated face-to-face negotiations between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. However, these talks ultimately failed.
Iran Nuclear Deal (2015): The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) was a landmark multilateral agreement intended to prevent Iran from developing nuclear weapons. The deal was highly controversial and opposed by Israel.
Final months efforts: In his last weeks in office, the Obama administration chose not to veto a UN Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlements, a move that drew strong criticism from Israel.
Outcomes during Obama's presidency:
The Israeli-Palestinian peace process stalled, and Israeli settlement construction continued to expand throughout his two terms.
Escalating regional conflicts, such as the rise of ISIS and the Syrian Civil War, diverted attention from peace initiatives.
The administration's relationship with traditional Middle Eastern allies, including Saudi Arabia and Israel, was strained at times.
Biden's approach
The Biden administration entered office intending to re-engage with the region and repair relationships with the Palestinian leadership after a breakdown in relations under the previous administration.
Key initiatives included:
Restoring Palestinian aid: The administration renewed U.S. assistance to Palestinians and their institutions in East Jerusalem.
Pursuit of normalization: Biden built on the Abraham Accords brokered by the Trump administration, working to expand normalization between Israel and Arab states, including a high-profile effort to secure a deal with Saudi Arabia.
Response to the Israel-Hamas war (2023): Following the October 7 attack, Biden has been heavily involved in crisis diplomacy, sending senior officials to the region to secure a ceasefire and hostage release.
Post-war planning: The administration has promoted a vision for post-war Gaza that includes a pathway toward a two-state solution.
Recent ceasefire deal (2025): The Biden administration was a key negotiator in the 42-day Gaza war ceasefire deal reached in January 2025, which included a hostage release. The incoming Trump administration was also involved in the final stages of these talks.
25% chance that Netanyahu says that Palestinians don't want a deal, genocide continues.
60% chance of the genocide continuing, within 6 months, Netanyahu finds a reason.
10% chance of Palestinians living without freedom, like before Oct 7th 2023.
5% chance of an actual future for Palestinians.
It didn't begin on Oct 7th 2023, it has been going on since 1947.
The world shouldn't have given the victims of a genocide a state
that required a genocide of the people who already lived there.
That was a mistake. When you make a mistake, you correct it,
you don't continue making more, to continue on the wrong path.
We should make Israel a secular state, with Jews and Muslims living together.
The religions should be limited to their homes and houses of worship.
That's the only way towards peace for them and the rest of the world.
I think the best that can happen is if both sides lose external support
I see better uses, like, why bother with a human weather man anymore?
