Yeah I mean it should be clear to anyone that doesn't have an agenda that "authoritarian" is just some imperialist buzzword that the US propaganda machine labels the government of any country that doesn't align with its interests. It is a meaningless word.

You will also notice how any country that is not governed in accordance with US interests is a "regime" instead of an "administration" or what have you.

Some of them can chime in here with their experience.

Do people with vaccine have a moral imperative to avoid those without so they don't kill em?

Oliver did an episode on housing discrimination that ended with talk of reparations so I feel like that will make the rounds soon.

If Putin is willing to attack our diplomats w/ portable microwave devices that cause Havana syndrome, we shouldn’t assume our elite athletes & the Olympics would be off-limits to him. It’s something we should at least take precautions on. Will discuss further on tonight’s podcast
lol twitter

it was putin who got biles out of the olympics so russia could win gold

like someone explain it to me

Pelosi has to know what she is saying is total nonsensical bullshit

does she say it because she thinks that someone, somewhere, might actually believe it?

or is it just muscle memory

“I’m at a press conference and I’m asked a question, I have to say SOMETHING!”

so she just says utter nonsense that we know is bullshit, that she knows is bullshit, that she knows we know is bullshit, and that we know she knows is bullshit

but that is apparently preferable to there just being dead air or just her just saying “i don’t have an answer”

i mean it’s just crazy that it’s gotten to the point where the propaganda isn’t remotely convincing

it’s so unconvincing that they might as well just tell the truth

i just legitimately do not believe one person exists who could believe that bullshit answer that is actually reasoning in good faith

and further i don’t believe that Pelosi herself thinks what she is saying is believable

As far as the president having power to cancel student debt I do not know, but it has been said he does for a while now.

As far as the someone else will have to pay off your debt *fear mongering*, I think that had been ingrained and people believe it. Did Pelosi? Decent chance but also maybe not.

right but EB makes the point—

by Pelosi’s logic all taxes are bad and should be completely abolished which is nonsense

you could apply her same logic to literally any public expenditure

Sure probably not on the table as being "cuttable."

Dunno how many normal media question defense spending.
