Bernie “Zion” Sanders? Bernie “Israel has a right to defend itself” Sanders?
It’s so disheartening to go from feeling like even if we lacked substantial representation on the left at least there were a couple people on Capitol Hill making some noise for us, to feeling just completely alienated from the entire project of electoral politics in the US. I guess there are still some folks in the House we can raise up.
Thank you for your service
Human sexuality is really weird, and the way society plays into it makes it nigh incomprehensible sometimes how we feel and act about it.
I couldn’t agree more
The UC is a government entity. That’s not the end of the story, but…
rape occurred. mass rape did not.
It’s referencing a paywalled Haaretz article.
It makes me all warm and fuzzy to see people have respectful disagreements!
Thank you for saying so! I have to admit that my comment is almost adressed to myself as much as to you. I was raised with all the sexual hang ups of conservative Christianity. The idea of my daughter growing up and choosing to do sex work certainly makes me uncomfortable. But I also would like my daughter to be unashamed of her sexuality when she grows up, and I wouldn’t want her to be judged no matter how she chooses to express herself. I also believe sex work can be an incredibly compassionate form of labor, providing human connection to people starved of affection.
On the other hand, I do have some reservations about sex work, particularly when it comes to outright prostitution. Can someone have sex with so many people and still maintain the ability to have a full, healthy relationship with a partner? What are the consequences for social stability of making it so easy for men to cheat on their partners?
How is doing sex work being a bad role model?
Interesting. I don’t think the UK has many tornadoes.
An interview isn’t meant to be factual like a news report. The whole point is to hear someone’s perspective. Friedman’s project is to expose his listeners to a broad spectrum of views. That’s an honorable goal.
Hey now! Biden is complaining while he supports the genocide with weapons. What more do you want?
Because Lemmy wants Biden to be re-elected so bad they want us to ignore his genocide
He also platformed a Palestinian in a powerful interview. We don’t need to be so afraid of words. People can think for themselves.
Biden is actually doing the genocide. Kushner is just flapping his lips. If we were talking about Americans starving instead of Palestinians, no one would be making excuses for Biden. But it’s brown people overseas, so it’s just an unpleasant fact we need to make peace with.
Trump talks while Biden acts. Which is worse?
Imagine this is happening in Kansas, and not only is Biden doing nothing, he is sending weapons to the people responsible for this. Do you vote for him because he’s the lesser evil?
In the US, electric vehicles are only affordable for wealthy drivers. In China, they are building cheap electric cars, like $16,000 cheap. But tarrifs to protect our stagnant auto industry will keep these cars out.
What’s your beef with Ilhan Omar? I take your point on AIPAC.
