Re: Four Parties
I honestly believe the only significant difference between them, for practical assessment, is Trump is just as corrupt and self serving, etc but he is also clinically a sociopath. Their 'politics' and 'morality' and 'professed principles' are just tools in their branding tool kit. Words on their re...

Re: Truth is the first casualty
Killing Hamas isn't genocide. Cutting off food, water, power, and communications to an already captive population is certainly genocide. By many measures, Gaza was arguably subjected to genocidal conditions before Oct. 7. The threatened expulsion of Palestinians from Gaza is certainly ethnic cleans...

You're trying to make some point, but you should really just state it clearly. Trump hasn't been "assigned guilt." Who is supposedly ignoring Iran?
