The only time Democrats and Republicans in congress can put aside differences is when it's to support Israel or fuck over progressive candidates.

[-] cmeu@lemmy.world 23 points 11 hours ago

This is why people say during elections that it doesn't matter which partythey vote for

[-] SereneSadie@lemmy.myserv.one 11 points 11 hours ago

It made it easier for the Nazis to walk in the front door.

[-] cmeu@lemmy.world 4 points 3 hours ago

I think the point is that there's Nazis and there's flamboyant Nazis. Aye is pronounced the same on both sides of the aisle, as evidence by their voting records.

[-] mathemachristian 4 points 6 hours ago

There's bipartisan support to keep arming fascists. The nazis are calling from inside the house.

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 20 points 13 hours ago

What about republicans? How did they vote?

[-] CrackedLinuxISO@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 8 hours ago

Given that it was an internal DNC vote... they didn't

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 21 points 12 hours ago

Exactly the same as the Democrats. Uniparty strikes again!

[-] lorty@lemmy.ml 3 points 11 hours ago

I'm sure this is somehow Trump's fault /s

So our choices are Nazi's or genocidal maniacs. Fuck the DNC.

[-] KindnessisPunk@piefed.ca 42 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

No they're both genocidal maniacs, one also dabbles on the homefront.

Do you guys think Jeffrey Epstein was the first or the only guy using videos of United States politicians engaging in pedophelia to blackmail them for Israel?

Do you think Tom Artiom Alexandrovich knew Epstein, or his associates/handlers in Israel?

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 23 points 21 hours ago

To the surprise of no one.

Captured Congress, doesn’t matter which side when it comes to Israel.

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 9 points 14 hours ago

Sad but true. Democrats are slightly better, but not much.

Their PR is better for progressives.

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 48 points 1 day ago

What kind of a messed up headline is that?

[-] 11111one11111@lemmy.world 31 points 1 day ago

Serious question, what is wrong with the headline? The article is only 4 paragraphs long and the headline basically sums what is written in the article. Id get it if you thought the article itself was shitty but I stared at the headline long enough without seeing anything wrong so I gotta ask, what am I missing?

[-] homura1650@lemmy.world 9 points 22 hours ago

The headline reads as if by voting against the embargo, they were recognizing a Palestinian state. Of course, with a bit of general knowledge about the situation, it should be clear that that is not the correct reading.

[-] Odo@lemmy.world 15 points 21 hours ago

It's an example of "headlinese", the odd rules used to shorten headlines. It's at least decades old and comes from newspapers where space was limited. In this case the comma subs in for "and".

That said, I agree it's old-fashioned and confusing, and wouldn't be missed if news sites collectively agreed to stop doing it.

[-] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 9 points 21 hours ago

It just hit me that I use “headlinese” in pull request titles at work.

[-] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Can you really count “Fixes” as headlinese?

[-] undefined@lemmy.hogru.ch 1 points 4 hours ago

Thank God I don’t commit like that. Or worse, all downcase.

[-] childOfMagenta@jlai.lu 6 points 20 hours ago* (last edited 20 hours ago)

Fixed headlinese:

Democrats vote down resolution calling for arms embargo on Israel, Palestinian state recognition
