They're acting in their best interests, what's confusing to me is the people voting for them who put the world at risk for no gain.

What they seek to gain aren't things we would consider gain, but they are largely getting what they want.

Who’s voting for them? You mean the people from 2 years ago that had no idea any of this crazy shit would be happening? That’s an incredibly immature mindset

You mean the 18+ year old people that went through a global pandemic and this crazy shit in 2016??
They either were willfully ignorant because it was everywhere or, know what? No. They just didn’t want to buck the trend. They were weak, and it’s their fault. I won’t try to bury them any further.

A bunch of so called settlers was attacking Palestinians trying to harvest their olive trees in the West Bank, burning trees, viciously attacked a US journalist (Washington post, maybe) and Israel just blew it off, basically.
They are supposed to be policing the West Bank, whoever or whatever gave them that authority needs to revoke it and put a real peacekeeping force in there that will stop this BS<

They are putting the world at risk to conceal their own crimes and greed.

Which they’re not even adept at hiding.

What a murdering arsehole, killed Ukrainians for his own selfish political gain.

u/PopBulky7023 5h ago
Not quite. Both of their countries are, or are least their supporters and allied parties and such. Never fall for the "one bad man" trap. These issues are systemic and didn't come out of nowhere.
Republicans could end trump's behavior in a day. So could Israel with netenyahu.

We are collectively letting them

What would you have us do? You want me to quit my job and be homeless so I can go protest at the White House and get kidnapped by ICE at best and shot by the Secret Service at worst?
Let's do it. You go first and show me how committed you are to the cause and I'll jump right in after you.
•
u/PopBulky7023 5h ago
Lots of people already have. Not enough are joining them.
•
u/MelatoninFiend 5h ago
And you? You ready to jump in feet first?
That's the problem. Y'all talk about what "NEEDS" to happen, but it's just that: Talk. You're not doing anything, you want everyone else to do the hard stuff.
Call me when you're ready to stop talking and take some action.

No one who is doing anything meaningful is going to be posting about it where the stasi is watching, bro.

What dont you understand about the words we and collectively? It's litteraly a deliberate admission of failure in wich I include myself. It's an observation.

Cool non-answer.
Thanks for being yet another shining example of someone who expects others to sacrifice everything while you sit at your keyboard and admonish them for "NoT DoiNg AnYThiNg"

The world would be so much better if we could just get rid of four people. Putin, Netanyahu, Trump, and Miller.

Why can’t other countries come in and do the terrible shit the CIA used to do to these two? (Mouthful to avoid the words)
Seriously, they are legitimately causing global destruction and chaos.

Trump and Netanyahu are putting the world at risk to stay out of prison

Sadly this is obvious to anyone paying attention. Also sadly the mass media in both countries are covering it up (because they are participating in the propaganda to keep those 2 in power) so if you are not specifically paying attention you won't necessarily know. It's a terrible situation.

If either one of them had the chance to push a button that would KILL everyone who ever voted for them but would guarantee that they never spent a single minute in prison or pay a single cent in fines, they'd slap that button so fast they wouldn't even have time to remember they voted for themselves.
