kent_eh , to world in A Ukrainian sport plane drone just flew 800 miles (1300 km) into Russia to blow up an oil refinery

It does also show Russia that Ukraine is capable of bypassing their defenses and successfully attacking infrastructure (or military installations/encampments) several hundred kilometers inside Russia.

And doing it multiple times.

kent_eh , to news in Donald Trump says he'll revoke Joe Biden's protections for trans people 'on day one'

It’s like half of the general population supports him, and the other half supports Biden.

Less than a quarter support Trump.

The bigger problem is that almost thalf of the population doesn’t vote at all.

kent_eh , to news in Donald Trump says he'll revoke Joe Biden's protections for trans people 'on day one'

The problem is that there isn’t a left to vote for

In the current American political spectrum, there isn’t really anything that most other countries would recognize as “left”.

But given the current binary reality, whatever the Democrats are is viewed as left of the GOP rightwingnuts.

Trump is only too happy to repeal that shit so fast. Not only that, but big boi Trump also has alluded to glassing Iran

I’m convinced that he really doesn’t care one way or another. He only cares about telling his base whatever he thinks will get them worked up.

He wants power, and will tell people whatever he thinks will cause them to give it to them.

whatever “monster of the week” they pick as an enemy

Right wing outrage farmers have been doing exactly that for my enture life.

D&D was the biggest evil ever, back in my teenage years.

And before that it was the Satanic Panic.

There’s always something they want us to be scared of.

It sure would be nice if we lived in a country where policing was actually a civil service and not a damn street gang.

The cases you hear in the media are the ones that provoke outrage.

On a day to day basis the police have hundreds of interactions with the public that aren’t remarkable or noteworthy.

We could have both.

kent_eh , to world in ‘We will fight with our fingernails’ says Netanyahu after US threat to curb arms

Thats something that a lot of people seem to forget. This fight has been going on in one form or another since the creation of the modern state of Israel. And there is an almost unlimited amount of blood on the hands of both the Israelis and Palestinians. (As well as the colonial countries who set up the borders in the first place)

kent_eh , to mildlyinfuriating in Grocery stores promoting gas discounts are not helping the transition away from gas vehicles

Want to go farther? Fine! DC fast charging is, in fact, fast

Sure, but those need to exist at the appropriate locations, and be maintained in working order - neither of which is the current reality in a lot of places.

Add to that the lack of availability of affordable EVs and you are going to have the slow adoption we currently see.

.

I was planning to get an EV of some sort the last time my vehicle needed to be replaced, but there were none available at the time that fit my budget and my needs.

I still intend to have one relatively soon, but the practical realities are still an impediment.

As a citizen of one of those “more Northern countries”, that is one of the things that concerns me.

kent_eh , to news in More than a trade war: Trump is targeting Mexico

The good things about his campaign promises is you know it’ll never happen if he gets elected.

Except you don’t really know what he will actually do. Some of it will be even more crazy than this idea.

kent_eh , to news in Barron Trump to step into the political arena as a Florida delegate at the Republican convention

Oh goodie, you did the bare minimum and voted.

Have you involved yourself in actually improving the process?

kent_eh , to news in Barron Trump to step into the political arena as a Florida delegate at the Republican convention

They had intense disagreements about how to build the country, and no single design or designer had enough influence to get exactly what he wanted.

The difference is they were willing to give-and-take to eventually come to a mutually tolerable compromise solution.

Contrast that with today’s “if you are from the other party, I will thwart you even if it is a good idea”

Unable or unwilling?

kent_eh , to news in Transgender activists flood Utah tip line with hoax reports to block bathroom law enforcement

Not only “trans activists”.

It’s also just average people who are frustrated with the stupidity of these kinds of discriminatory laws.
