@droguul @SanderRegter I think a large majority of Italians would favor removing all American troops and bases from Italy.

@SanderRegter Typical Eurocentric overestimation of your worth as a parking lot for our assets. You all think this is a Trump thing. It's not. The USA is DONE carrying the burden for ungrateful Euros who mistakenly think of themselves as "equals". FAFO as they say.

@mollyblewis @elrambo Umberto Eco:
"It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy... It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones."

@elrambo That was actually the second half of the question. :)

Had my Victorian lit students over for dinner at the end of the semester, and one of them had the audacity to ask if the books on my shelves were "performative".

@pretty_sarlin I see some HP Lovecraft Cthulhu horror rising out of a Massachusetts barn.

If you use your right brain, you’ll see a kitten; if you use your left brain, you’ll see a baby rabbit.

Getting rid of Israel's influence on our country is my no #1 issue. If it's not yours, just unfollow and block me.
Not gonna apologize for supporting people on the Left and Right who think the same way as me.

@DevinThorn10670 @jennfrey Uh, so they can learn to think?
English
@jennfrey AI has given us a great opportunity to reflect on all this, and really, what's the point? Why are we making so many young americans write short essays? It's all just a make-work jobs program for humanities majors.
English
I just graded a blue book essay on Plato, Aristotle, Hugh of St Victor, Newman, and Weber, which was peppered throughout with references film and literature. It was excellent!
Students can write and think well in a blue book format, I promise you.

@docjazzmusic The people who are surprised are not leftists.
English
X has one theme today: MTG vs AOC.
Leftists are shocked how Palestine-supporters despise AOC.
They're also shocked at how popular MTG is becoming, which has them freaking out for ideological reasons.

When is Zohran Mamdani going to fire Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch?

simply infuriating how many apps and services that I've been using for years and years are clearly just getting run into the ground and stripped for parts. basic workflow infrastructure shit. evernote? done. dropbox? a mess. liquidtext? broken. its all trash now

@LChurch814 @sasquatch_god What movement is that? Seriously, what movement?
English
@sasquatch_god These people hate AOC more than they care about our movement it’s absolutely maddening.
English
AOC is literally in Georgia for Ruwa Romman this second lol
Ashleyy@dontsippy
If AOC actually believed in something, she’d be out there helping to elect more progressives to Congress. Bernie, despite his age, is traveling across the country, using his influence to boost progressives……that’s someone who truly believes in something. AOC even pledged to the establishment not to endorse challengers against incumbents just to secure a leadership role. She stands for nothing except self-preservation. I’ll give her this: she does know how to put on a great performance.

@count_dragon @sasquatch_god Doesn't want corpses of women and children stacked up in their tens of thousands:
You're just holier than thou!
English
@sasquatch_god I like to call this performative leftism. These kind of leftists prefer to be "holier than thou" and talk down other leftists rather than actually going out and doing anything. All smoke and no substance. Just jealous AOC actually gets shit done.
English
@sasquatch_god @Hind_MD88888888 @BenjaminPDixon Shehelped fund the iron dome, which allowed Israel to carry on a genocide unimpeded. So no, you're wrong.
English
@steveinmerida @piousdeenn As a 🇬🇧 woman I can confirm
English
@dr_zervas @ggreenwald @KaoticLeftist Not that I know of.
My frustration with her is largely built around her cowardice in 2024 -- uncritically supporting Biden in the middle of a genocide, and then lying about Harris's commitment to ending it.
English
@steveinmerida @ggreenwald @KaoticLeftist Good point. Although I would suspect that they would award her for her loyalty.
Any pics of her kissing that damn wall ?
English
Apparently MTG didn’t sellout just because she quit Congress. Lmfao the delusion is off the charts. AOC has never voted to fund Israel a dime. MTG spent her entire time in Congress until the last week funding Israel with whatever they wanted.
Jamaal 🐅 🚴 🇵🇸@JamaalKemp8
@realABFsociety @KaoticLeftist You're right, she's wrong. They are cultists, you're not. AOC sold out, MTG didn't and they hate it.
English
@ChrisSosa @neverpilled You can say whatever you want, but she's spoken out more against the killing of women and children in Palestine then almost any member of Congress.
English
The Left is anti-imperialist and anti-colonialist, therefore pro-Palestine and anti-genocide. MTG is a Christian nationalist. Her opposition to Israel begins and ends inside that worldview. She is not actually fighting for Palestinians or universal human rights. Be aware.
English
@dasmadchengyal @RioSlade Actually she's right on two topics: Gaza and Epstein.
English
nobody is acting like MTG is some guiding light. she just has the right position on a particular topic. get out of the partisan tribalism where you only accept the same point from people you agree with 90% of the time. you can't build a coalition with people already on your team.
palki 🦋@themeasuredtake
y’all please don’t fall for this MTG bullshit 😭 just like tucker, she’s good on this issue, but she’s still racist, homophobic, transphobic, anti-vax, etc. everything is not black and white

@arkb1987 @thechosenberg You don't understand how it states actually work.

@thechosenberg the debt comes out of your estate. that guy just fucked his family
English
@LeachSie @thechosenberg I am sure they could imprison the corpse over this.
English
@thechosenberg Thats called fraud , read small print in terms and conditions and somewhere there will be statement about if you have knowledge of any reason that may prevent you from repaying the debt you should notify the credit card company and by not doing so they can claim on estate/family
English
@MagicPeaceLove @EoinHiggins_ @PrettyBadLefty @mtaibbi I would say that was true a decade or more ago but it certainly is not true today.

@EoinHiggins_ @PrettyBadLefty @mtaibbi You keep lying and claiming he’s a “rightwinger” when he’s more true to progressive values than most alleged liberals.

@mehercle @JimSpenceDundee Whatever, benefits are enough to feed yourself. Foodbanks are a nonsense to indulge idiots.

My wife volunteered for 7 years two half days a week at a well known Foodbank. When volunteers asked to keep an old couch in the move to premises next door for a tea break, they were told they weren’t there to drink tea. Many volunteers including her resigned. Human nature eh🤔
