  1. Even if we don't go with my idea, we could reallocate SOME budgeted MIC funds to expanding programs that already exist. For example, people who acquire HIV get their healthcare (or parts of it) funded by the Ryan White Care Act. We can expand that to include people with mental health or cancer or (You get the picture)
  2. I didn't say "free medication". I said AFFORDABLE medication. And honestly the MIC also kills tens of thousands of lives around the entire world, I struggle with wanting to preserve jobs in it in the face of that fact.. The infrastructure needed to establish this would create jobs, too.
  3. How? Can you give an actual counter-argument? It's been too long since we've had a debate that didn't have Trump trolling the entire time.
  4. The same government that funds Israel and the war industry. If we put less money into the Pentagon and the military-industrial complex and put it into something like my suggestion, lives would be saved in more than one way. We spent $42 billion to develop a death machine (a jet fighter). We can pay for this.
  5. new idea for the affordability of medicines: develop a state-owned corporation that produces affordable generic medications, including patented ones, and distributes them to people who make under a certain amount of money.
  6. Idea to make the housing affordable: seize the homes owned by the banks and the landlords and redistribute them to the people who need them.
  7. I wish Butch Ware was on the debate. I'm not watching it because I have a meeting, but he's the best of all the VP candidates.
  8. 1. Rape happens regardless of the law. 2. IDGAF who you donate to, you want the extermination of the Palestinian people. You are probably right
  9. You're an awful human being. Uh, genocide everywhere is evil, including in Palestine. Ultraconservative Jews in Israel have harmed queer people and the Israeli soldiers rape Palestinian women and children.
  10. Israel is a Herrenvolk democracy and NEEDS to be stopped. Does Islam need a reform or a liberalization? Probably. But does that make a state built to give rights to a single ethnicity and religion a good thing? No.
  11. 1. Israel is not an innocent country 2. No matter the criticisms of Islam, that does not make it okay to fucking blow up, declare war on, or genocide a people.
  12. All Israel has to do to end this war is stop genociding Palestinians and stop escalating wars by invading Lebanon. if Israel was any other country, it would have been treated as a rogue state by now. Also the Zionists are selling "real estate" that is or was used and owned by Palestinians. Disgusting.
  13. Israel just launched a ground invasion of Lebanon. This is also tied to our election, we need to reject both Republicans and Democrats and put an end to funding Israel's wars. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/09/30/israel-lebanon-hezbollah-hamas-war-news-gaza/
  14. Sky Ferreira had a thread? And people cared?
  15. Can we have a thread where we can discuss the ramifications of her choice of man on the status of our support of her? I feel like that's a topic of conversation that we've covered, but we need a place for folks to be able to carefully and kindly delineate how they feel.
  16. plot twist: Lasso features verses from the best drill rappers in existence. or death. 1. King Von (rip) 2. Julio Foolio (rip) 3. ant200 4. Lil Mabu etc etc etc
