    Im not equating anything Im pointing out that if this was flawed logic when MAGA used it against liberals it is still flawed logic to use it against MAGA.

    Also pointing out that the anti-war faction of MAGA has remained very consistent in their anti war stance so there’s basically no one supporting this attack. So the people who this post is supposed to be talking to don’t really exist.

    This wasn’t even a rebuttal. Just pointing out that whatever this is saying it is not a reflection of reality.

    The move has been incredibly unpopular with his most loyal followers and you could argue he won the elections thanks to increased minority support. What insinuation is there here that isn’t completely incorrect?

    Do I need to point out that this is also the logic they used on liberals who were pressuring Biden into giving more weapons to Ukraine.

    Double standards are never good.

    I should also point out that most, if not all the people who were against supporting Ukraine in the war are also being consistent in being against this attack against Iran. So this is also a straw man.

    Politics team sporting is so fucking tiresome at this point.








  • Yeah no I agree but at a federal level, especially with the outsized economical power California has, you would have to look at if a regulation that they pass could have shockwaves that could be problematic in other states. Like let’s say the top 5 economies in the US decide that ICE engines are banned so now the car manufacturers decide that they can no longer sustain their ICE manufacturing anymore and will only sell EVs. What happens to states that do not have the infrastructure to support only EVs on their roads? So that’s why I say that at a rational level I can understand opposition to that sort of lawmaking.

    But actively stopping any organization from adopting a technology that is objectively superior is just stupid. It’s actually anathema to free market capitalism.
