Jacob Levy, Tomlinson Professor of Political Theory at McGill University, cautioned in a Blue Sky thread that the case involving a Maryland man the U.S. government acknowledges was "wrongfully deported" has reached a "crisis moment."In March, Kilmar Ábrego García was accused of being an MS-13 gang m...
You meant ANOTHER crucial red line.
We’re running out of red ink for all these red lines being crossed.
experts are trying to convince americans to respond, but we aren’t.
Like the French Revolution, it takes a lot for a revolt. Ultimately if faces aren’t seen, it forgotten. As for republicans, if they aren’t white faces; it’s forgotten in a day or two.
Lots of us are peacefully protesting and it’s pretty hard for most of us to do anything more than that
Well you guys gotta make an effort or you’ll find out first hand the difference between e.g. Ukraine and Russia. Or Taiwan and China
Americans have to take on the largest military in the world. Are you selling war planes that you can get to Florida without issue?
“americans” aren’t a regular army, they’re a dispersed civilian population and the us military historically actually has a lot of trouble with those
Absolutely. So, your solution is normal Americans declare war and wage irregular asymmetric warfare today. Against what? Our local government buildings? The post office? Commit sabotage against what exactly?
We are going to find out if we prefer the consequences of revolt or the consequences of not revolting more.
I disagree, not anymore anyway. Sure Vietnam was a wholesale loss. But while the US failed to institute a lasting democracy in Afghanistan, their KD is like 1:200. In 20 years of occupation they lost under 3000 troops. That is with logistics supplying the force on the other side of the world. That’s actually a crazy accomplishment and show of power.
While the military might not be able to “win” if they fully side with trump, America in for a long and bloody (mostly bloody for the civilians) occupation.
Tariffs have doubled the cost of red-lines, as they were sourced in S. E. Asia, processed in a small barely-know penguin island, and packaged in Denmark.
I look behind us and I just see a red road. It’s all red lines, all the way back.
So that’s what the stripes are got e on your flag?
yeah its like a goalpost redline. Whelp its not really facism until he does x, oh well we are fine unless he gets away with y…
