    As a random person on the streets of the US I have zero desire to be at war with these random people on the streets of Iran, fuck our leaders, fuck this shit.

      I saw a video of people trying to get out Iran. They looked exactly like people here. Had a couple of suitcases on rollers, wandering around, trying to figure out where to go.

      We should make a law the president has one finger chopped off for each person killed. Two for every child.

      Edit: Chopped off on live TV without pain killers.

        The Democrats are fully complicit in this war though. Basically nobody except for Mamdani has mortally condemned it.

        The real lesson here should be, that the American political system needs to be completely overhauled for there to be real change.
