Okay, but why start the framing as a problem with China? Last I checked their carbon emissions have flatlined, if we were to shift that manufacturing home it would likely be more carbon intensive due to our own inefficiencies. We could import green infrastructure but we're a failing petro-state so here we are....
Nah, he'll just run as VP and have Baron Trump run for president and have the special forces do any rigging needed. Fascism in America is disappointing on so many levels.
When I see a response like this I am reminded of "Americans wanting to be right at the cost of doing what is good." At a certain point you should ask what is the intention behind your words?
You know the Irish wouldn't have starved so bad if the Brits didn't insist they export all food that wasn't potatoes. Let's not use bad policies as an example for why we can't have good policies.
I don't think that's the criticism, rather we fixing the problem at the wrong end of things. We can't fix society by stressing personal responsibility, we need a different tactic.
You both are right but one is more consequential. Let's dive in:
Bombing Iran does not have bipartisan support, many Dems are voicing their opposition. The Dems even advanced a bill where the president would need congressional review to specifically bomb Iran in this instance.
The President making unilateral military decisions like bombing Iran does have bipartisan support. The Dems have not challenged it's constitutionality or proposed significant changes on this front and instead go for a case by case congressional veto. This policy also aides in our genocidal program of Gaza...
In light of the recent news of the DNC report, which of those options is willing to call what's happening in Gaza a genocide? Buttigieg is a great communicator, but it won't matter if the message is Republican light.
So like I understand why the right doesn't learn the right lessons; they're misinformed. But you're presented with an example of a failure of leadership to read the room and the lesson is fuck Gaza? What's your excuse?
International law is what the CCP claims gives them the right. So no, I am not implying, I am stating it is relevant. Even if you disagree with the law, how do you expect this to be resolved peacefully without international law?
