ikidd , in Trump vows to keep doing outdoor campaign rallies after shooting
@ikidd@lemmy.world avatar

I’m Kamala Harris and I approve this message.

retrospectology , in Trump vows to keep doing outdoor campaign rallies after shooting
@retrospectology@lemmy.world avatar

Lol, he has to do outside rallies because he already screwed over all the indoor venues in these areas during his last go round and no one wants to host him.

He never pays the venues and it’s coming back to bite him in the arse.

Kraven_the_Hunter ,

Or nip him in the ear, as it were.

cybervseas ,

That’s why he had to hold that press conference at the Four Seasons…Total Landscaping. Makes perfect sense.

randon31415 , in Sig Sauer guns hanging on soldiers’ hips may be firing without trigger pull

Recalling these guns is gun regulation that all sides can get behind.

You would think so, but I guarantee you there are crazy people who are foaming at the mouth about how those commies at Sig Sauer aren’t going to take their P320.

imaqtpie , in Canadian women's soccer docked, coaches suspended over drone spying scandal
@imaqtpie@sh.itjust.works avatar

Cheating in professional sports with insane sums of money on the line is one thing.

But cheating for women’s soccer in the Olympics, when you literally won the gold medal 4 years prior, is just pathetic and shameful. I’m glad they threw the book at them.

Why do you think it’s okay to wish death on someone?

DmMacniel ,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

Not someone, Trump. The convicted bankrupt rapist racist asshole.

grue ,

…and fascist wanna-be dictator, which is even worse than the rest of it.

hddsx ,

Okay and? I hate Trump too. Doesn’t mean I’m going to wish death upon him. I want him to face justice for every shitty thing he’s ever done.

I want Biden and/or Harris to reform the Supreme Court and for Judge Cannon to lose her job based on her inability to be impartial.

But death? No

DmMacniel ,
@DmMacniel@feddit.org avatar

isn’t treason punishable by death? And he being very treasonous, not just by inciting the january riots but also by blatantly undermining the Supreme Court and Democracy as a whole (no longer need to vote).

But yeah, lets justice, once it has regained its integrity, prevail.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I wish death on Putin and Netanyahu because they’re inhuman monsters. I hope that’s okay with you.

hddsx ,

No, because I subscribe to Kantian ethics. You can’t make an ethical rule and add exceptions.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Explain how wishing someone would die is unethical. Do you think the world works on Tinkerbell rules? Putin and Netanyahu are old men. Old men die. I wish they’d go ahead and die already. Where’s the lack of ethics?

hddsx ,

There’s a difference between wishing death upon them and death my natural causes.

Do you think it’s okay to be going around and telling people “I wish you would die”? If it’s not okay for some people it’s not okay for all people per Kant

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

You didn’t say the method of death mattered.

And no one here is telling Trump, Putin or Netanyahu that they wish they would die because chances are no one here would be able to get close enough to them to do it. And if they did, they’d be the ones who would die.

So you can keep bringing up Kant, but you’re being both inconsistent and bringing up something irrelevant.

barsquid ,

It is some magical thinking that they want to participate in. Most of us would agree it’s not okay for the government to punish people for no reason. Therefore it is unethical to punish any criminals, per Kant. Lunacy.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

Sorry, misunderstood your reply and deleted my previous comment. You’re absolutely right.

barsquid ,

No worries! Just frustrating to read them and wanted to point out how little sense it makes to pretend deliberate choices shouldn’t factor in to how we treat people.

hddsx ,

That’s not how it works.

I like Kant because it provides for this:

All humans should have the right to marry who they want to.

Because trans and gay people are people, it’s unethical to deny them the right to marry because it would be an exception to the rule.

The rule you would advocate for would be:

People should not harm others.

That rule would mean that harming people is unethical.

barsquid ,

It’s not okay to tell people who aren’t actively committing atrocities that one wishes they would die. I apply that to all humans equally.

lolcatnip ,

Why do you expect others to subscribe to your particular interpretation of one particular philosopher’s ethical framework?

Sterile_Technique ,
@Sterile_Technique@lemmy.world avatar

Why don’t you?

Kit ,

It would be better to focus our efforts on getting folks out to vote rather than wishing death upon a man. A strong turnout would be an easy win for Kamala.

Tar_alcaran ,

Wishing for someone to attack your rivals is something Trump does. A lot.

Kit ,

Surely you consider yourself to be a better person than Trump, right? So don’t use his shitty behavior to excuse your own.

lolcatnip ,

I want to be a better person than my enemies, but I make an exception for my conduct towards them specifically. Nobody ever won a fight by being nice, and I have no moral qualms about wishing for someone to reap what they so relentlessly sow.

Icalasari ,

No, at this point Trump is his own worst enemy. Better he stay alive than die and become a martyr that the next guy can put words in the mouth of

unconfirmedsourcesDOTgov , in Car Repossessions Surge 23% as Americans Fall Behind on Payments

Good news for the used car market. Lots of new inventory about to become available.

Bad news for American car manufacturers, who are already struggling while they’re in limbo between ICE and EV and can’t commit to either, but certainly will help to correct used car prices.

Don’t expect this to be a major economic factor to track going forward - many of these borrowers were likely already pushing their budget to afford the vehicle. If they financed with a variable rate while interest rates were rock bottom and government subsidies were peaking then this is exactly what you’d expect from the Fed rasing the interest rate.

Sure, some of these are due to unemployment and other circumstances but the major factor that changed was the prime interest rate, which can directly impact loan payments at a scale that is more directly measurable than something like unemployment, which is indirectly caused by the interest rate hike.

Remember folks, “the economy” means “rich people’s yachts”.

You don’t understand how leadership works, do you?

A leader’s power comes from those who follow. Trump’s followers are dangerous lunatics who believe they are willing to commit acts of violence. They care what he says and there’s enough that we should care too, insofar as it tells us what to expect.

etuomaala ,

You don’t understand how leadership works, do you?

Look, I’ll talk with you, but not if this is how you treat me.

MrBadApple , in 'It'll Be Fixed!': Trump Tells Supporters No Need to Vote in the Future.

They should start “not voting” this election cycle.

@todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee avatar

We need to play this clip of Trump on repeat as much as possible, for two reasons:

  1. People need to be fully aware that he intends to destroy the pillars of our society.
  2. MAGA idiots might think they can already stop voting.

… And add another 4 justices, right?

@AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world avatar

Four isn’t enough, the other side can just eventually add six more. He should directly add a hundred and fifty thousand more.

the_crotch ,

Make every American a member of the supreme Court and cases are decided by a popular vote

ArugulaZ , in Trump Cryptically Declares, ‘You Won’t Have to Vote Anymore’ If He Wins Second Term

Cryptic, nothing. What he means is that we won’t be allowed to vote. This is precisely what happens when you tolerate tyranny for as long as we’ve tolerated Trump’s brand of it. We used to fight tyranny whenever it raised its head, but corporate media and its demands for “civility” has turned us into a nation of neuters.

jeffw , in Israel sends Gaza hostage and ceasefire proposal to U.S.
@jeffw@lemmy.world avatar

I wonder if Israel is feeling pressure from the US or they just want to end the Gaza war so they can focus on Lebanon/Hezbollah (which, tbh, is far more powerful than Hamas)

Burgundy ,

They also probably want to get their hostages back

Deceptichum ,
@Deceptichum@quokk.au avatar

They’ve shown very little concern for that so far.

eee ,

Historically, Israel shows a lot of willingness to make disproportionate trades to get their hostages back. Like, they’ll release 100+ enemy hostages to get one of their own back.

Eheran ,

Oh so that’s why they launched big rescue operations?

Viking_Hippie ,

“Rescue” operations that killed scores of innocent civilians in order to retrieve a fraction of the hostages they’ve gotten via negotiations.

At least one of them even killed dozens of civilians to “rescue” the bodies of hostages they knew were dead in advance.

The Israeli PEOPLE might care about the hostages, but the fascist apartheid regime is only using them as a pretense for their myriad war crimes.

Burgundy ,

Your claim is baseless. They have already released many prisoners to get some innocent hostages back. To be clear prisoners, who committed crimes, were released to get innocent people back.

Israel releases 39 detainees

The crime of being Palestinian

Burgundy ,

It must be worst time in history to be Palestinian, they are the real victim.s Hamas uses them as human shields, and Israel just thinks of them as collateral damage. Truly a shame.

gedaliyah OP ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

I honestly don’t think that they want a war with Hezbollah, but I don’t know if they know how to de-escalate it. Both sides have been trying to keep things ”even” in their exchanges but that kind of policy always leads to escalation.

Hezbollah just killed a bunch of kids in Israel, which I don’t think was the intent (they aren’t exactly itching for a war with Israel either). But how long can you keep firing rockets at civilians before you kill someone? Then Israel has to respond.

Burgundy ,

It was the intent. They fired a rocket at a soccer field.

yesman ,

These weapons are not accurate enough to hit a soccer field. These rockets are simply aimed at Israel, and they often miss.

Burgundy ,

That makes it worse
