There were no kings in America. It looks like that is, unfortunately, going to change. Which is why I’m going to do what I can to expedite getting my dual citizenship information straightened out.

I’m a “coward” who doesn’t want his queer daughter marched into a concentration camp.

And let me pre-empt you in case you try the, “if the Jews had just fought back, there wouldn’t have been a Holocaust” bullshit.

Yes, I do think of my child first.

And if you’re a parent and you don’t, I fear for your child or children.

Also, I hope none of those children are disabled considering the word you just used.

(By the way, I brought up Jews because my family is Jewish and many didn’t flee and most of them were murdered, so I may have a little bit of knowledge on this subject from the people who survived.)

I agree. They do. Which is why we are willing to sacrifice our home and being able to see our family and our friends and being able to keep our pets in order to make sure our daughter is safe.

Also, do you not understand what “dual citizenship” means? Which country would I be the coward for not fighting for if they went to war with each other?

Last I checked, 30% was a minority.

Basically, the entire 20 year war resulted in everything going back to how they were at the start.

I’m sure that won’t make those children bitter at the government, thus continuing the cycle.

There have got to be better ways than forcibly breaking the parent/child bond by taking away the children, even if there has been no abuse or neglect. Just because they’re mafioso doesn’t mean they mistreat their children.

I would think that the doing something would be breaking that bond by arresting the parents. Maybe even leave the child with one of them.

I know, I read the article, but they’re going beyond that now. And I really don’t think that making children hate the government by taking them away from their parents is going to break the crime cycle.

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I just think of all the other situations in which children were taken by their parents such as the U.S. foster system or Canadian residential schools and they tend to churn out criminals. But hopefully you’re on the right side of things and this will help break the cycle.

The funny thing is that, despite Boebert being racist about it, if the Biden administration hired her due to a lack of diversity in White House press secretaries, that’s a good thing.

Of course she doesn’t see it as a good thing, she thinks all the information a president puts out should be said by a white person.

I don’t even think it’s that they don’t understand that a black woman can bring a different perspective than a white man. They just don’t think that perspective matters. Heteronormative white patriarchal Christian culture must be maintained at all costs.

They weren’t defending circumcision by calling it mutilation.

On the other hand arguing that it’s between the parents, their child, and their doctor. Not lawmakers and not you.

I did not downvote you, I did give an argument and I did not call you either anti-trans or a pedophile.

Why are you lying? Everyone can even see that all but the downvote lie are lies.

Tina Brown completely fucked up The New Yorker and then went on to found The Daily Beast. And now people treat The Daily Beast with credibility when it’s always been a muckraking tabloid.

Imperial powers created Syria. Modern Syria anyway. The entire Middle East has been an Imperial project since colonialism. Pretty much only the Saudis and Israel (and Iran, if you want to count it as Middle Eastern) aren’t on board.

You’re talking to someone who agreed with SCOTUS’ decision allowing Trump to commit crimes, just so you know where they’re coming from.

No one is ignoring it. The problem is that the bigots who are rightfully called bigots think they’re doctors and that people should listen to their medical advice rather than their doctor’s medical advice.

I assume you don’t have a medical degree, but please correct me on that.

My dad got to “cuddle” a koala on a trip to Australia back in the 80s. He said it dug its claws into his back and it smelled bad and it was just a highly unpleasant experience overall.

Just because something looks cute doesn’t mean you should cuddle with it. You probably shouldn’t cuddle with a hedgehog either.

He did say that he also got to pet a wombat and it was very sweet.

Are there countries that will take in trans asylum seekers from the U.S.? Maybe a list of them to post in these threads would be in order.

My prediction is that there will be no nation of Palestine by 2025. That was the plan all along, after all. Then Netanyahu moves the war to Lebanon and Syria and eventually Iran. Anything to keep his war powers dictatorship going.

Oops. You’re right. I read ‘forties’ from the person I was replying to and wires got crossed.

Either way, he was a big celebrity then and he is one now, so I don’t think we can argue that this was some insecurity on his part.

In Old English, the two people married were known as ‘husband’ and ‘huswif,’ so maybe we need to go with heman and sheman from now on.

Biden Offered No Alternative to Trump’s Pro-Policing Authoritarianism in Debate (truthout.org)

Donald Trump’s overarching narrative for the debate was that Joe Biden has diminished U.S. power by opening the border and allowing millions of “Illegal immigrants” released “From prisons, jails and mental institutions” to come into the country to “Take our jobs,” overwhelm our health care and Social Security...

It’s a weird “joke” that he keeps repeating in all earnestness.

Funny how every time Trump says something atrocious, his fans excuse it as a joke.

Also funny how Trump has never said this dictator thing was a joke. You’ve just decided it is.
