Do you think the Philippine police should go to Russia and Israel to arrest Putin and Netantahu?

I don’t understand what your complaint here is. It’s up to the individual countries to enforce ICC arrest warrants. The Philippines chose to enforce it. That’s a good thing. If your complaint is that other countries don’t enforce it, then you should take that up with those countries, instead of crapping all over the Philippines for doing what those other countries don’t have the courage to do.

Exactly. I would like to see what he has to offer on his own terms. Maybe I’ll support him, maybe not. But it was obvious through the entire campaign that he was holding back. The one thing he did that got the most traction in the campaign was calling Republicans “weird”, and he was told by Dem leadership to stop doing that.

It’s really hard to decide if Dems are just that incredibly incompetent, or if they are actual controlled opposition. I think it might be a combination of the two.

In this analogy, the Republicans are the shooter. Not sure how you can draw the conclusion that anyone is blaming the Dems there.

I’ll be the first to call out people for solely blaming the Dems when that’s the case. I’ve been banned from so many Reddit subs for that very thing, which is how I ended up here at Lemmy in the first place. But that’s just not the case here. What this image is saying is that the fault of the action (the shooting) lies with the Republicans, and the Democrats (the Uvalde cops) are too cowardly to do anything to stop it. It’s a pretty damn accurate description of American politics.

Jerzy Drozd (Spain) for bassists who never get enough love.

I’ll be honest… I don’t care if he was talking about 2020 or 2024, or even if he was straight up admitting to rigging the election himself. Any nefariousness you want to read into that quote doesn’t matter, because it’s either not there, or he got away with it. Harping on the context is pointless, regardless of what he may or may not have meant by it.

The more likely scenario is that Musk is straight up lying about anything tracing back to a Ukrainian IP address because he’s manufacturing consent against Ukraine.
