I’m no fan of first-past-the-post systems, but I will admit that this was a beautiful moment.

Unfrotunately. Global climate change, and the inevitable economic crisis this is causing, is fertile breeding ground for populist right wing politicians promising illusory simple solutions of hate.

perpetuating endless war

Meaning Ukraine should stop resisting its efforts to throw out the Russian invaders of their country. Literally parrotting Russian propaganda on the war.

And here we unsurprisingly have the fascists lying that this literal right wing coup by the sc is nothing because Obama once did this completely unrelated thing.

They basically just performed a coup for whoever becomes the next Republican president. It may not be Trump in 2024, but it doesnt matter, as soon as a Republican president is voted in it is over.

It is not. It is the interpretation right wing gunnits have claimed it is, so there is that I suppose…

As long as they arent surrendering, the origins of the reasons for fighting for the invaders in another country is completely irrelevant. This means less invaders and that is objectively a good thing.

Peak US defaultism going on in here.

ITT: Loads of monolingual native English speakers who has no knowledge of linguistics or even how their own language is not unique in all the ways that they think it is.

Americans always regurgite the “Fahrenheit is how people feel” nonsense, but it is just that: nonsense. Americans are familiar with fahrenheit so they think that it is more inituitive than other systems, but unsurprisingly people who are used to celsius have no problems using it to measure “how people feel” and will think it is a very inituitive system.
