What does the evacuation mean for what's going on?

Hexbear is down. Expect an influx of people to this megathread if it stays down for too long

I don't see how this is in China's interests at this point. Committing to a position right now just presents more risks than potential rewards.

Sun Tzu was all about winning a fight without fighting. Pressing an enemy that can't retreat is the exact opposite of this.

I keep thinking about his line of always leaving a retreat for your opponent, and how this siege of Gaza is just going to make condemned souls fight harder

He could genuinely eliminate student loan if he wants a win. No half-measures, Walter. Americans still care more about their bottom line than about global politics

Because Progressive Democrats are too tapped into corporate and state media sources.

Even so, progressive Democrats aren't of a single mind on this issue. In washington, yes, but at the consitituent level, Palestine would seem tonhave some support, anecdotally

This looks nice! Can I just install a bog-standard android OS on it with no problems?

Makes sense. Under Trump, the COVID stim and student loan pauses, along with reduced gas expenses, reduced spending habits etc., has been the best times economically that a lot of regular folks have had in a long time.

Then Biden Admin came and winded all of that back, slowly but surely, and while he ran on cancelling student loans, for a lot of folks, they're basically being UNcancelled.

And Trump was happy to put his name on every stimmy check so you knew who your sugar daddy was.

Under Biden, we have inflation going nuts, stagnant pay, and economists blaming workers for it and promising to raise unemployment numbers.

Republicans never set out to make peoples' lives better, but did out of necessity during quarantine, and Democrats were too stupid to recognize that and try to keep the good times rolling for the working class.
