Both can be true.
If everything is Cuba’s fault, then US can lift sanctions and they’ll continue to be failing. But they won’t do that because Cuba, while awful for speech rights, would be pretty good in most other aspects without the sanctions, and a successful socialist country isn’t allowed to exist.
It could be a financial thing still. It’s often a lot cheaper to fly to Europe than it is to take a domestic flight within Canada. So when faced with that choice, why not go overseas?
There once was a final solution
With suffering and mass execution
They said “Never again”
What they actually meant
Was “Palestine’s just an illusion”
But if we also include all the times that he didn’t kill Hitler, then he actually killed two thirds of a Hitler
I live in Canada. I used to visit the States probably every other year. Then Trump was elected in 2016, and I stopped going. Then covid happened, so I figured I’d wait a bit longer. And now it’ll be another 3 years until I even consider it, but that largely depends on what happens in that time span. It’s not out of the question to just never visit again. There are plenty of other places in the world that I haven’t seen yet.
when he says that trump wouldn’t win election without him, I wish people would respond that he is full of bullshit and trump alone would win anyway, pushing him to say more.
I believe that Trump may not have won without him. He weaponized twitter to push misinformation against the Dems and in favour of Trump. I don’t know if the result of that can be quantified in such a way that we’d know for sure whether it changed the outcome, but it certainly had an impact.
It’s not organized by left and right. It’s organized by percentage of people who have an unfavorable view of Israel.
It would be weirder for 0% to be on the right and 100% to be on the left. Also, in theory, it’s possible for those three dots to be in any order on the line.
It’s news because these two mean girls are in charge of the two largest nuclear weapon stockpiles in the world.
Small group of extremists? One third of Americans voted for this, and another third didn’t hate the idea of this enough to vote against it.
Serious question: while air drops are likely dangerous and ineffective, are they better then nothing? Bringing aid in by land/truck is impossible right now, so the comparison shouldn’t be to that; it should be compared to getting nothing at all.
