Now that there's peace, what were those Palestinian protests really about?

“Time for “No Kings”!!!”

I want a sign for tomorrow’s festivities with a picture of a particularly ugly drag queen and the caption NO QUEENS !

“…encouraged by the lopsided prisoner exchange that was forced on Netanyahu by Trump and the Israeli left.”

There is a very simple solution to that problem: take no prisoners. Kill them all on site.

You know, in a warped way, I kinda hope he wins. He’s the first Democrat who is openly proposing a Communist state. When he falls flat on his face and NYC crumbles under the weight of “free stuff”, I want to see how the Democrats are going to explain the death of NYC and the resultant mess to the rest of the world. Will I feel sorry for the people of NYC left in the rubble? Only for those who know Mamdani is an idiot and did not vote for him.

Given that Trump is generally about weakening the power of the federal government, it’s the opposite of “king”.

Or fascism, for that matter.

In my personal analysis, many of these young protesters - most of whom can’t even find their mythical “Palestine” on a world map - as well as “Antifa”, are just lost punks from crappy homes. They had sh##ty or absent and divorced parents, who were dopey themselves. The rage is misdirected but gives them “purpose” and a sort of sad brotherhood/sisterhood. Their expression is the “mosh pit” of fake political activism. Compound that with today’s ADHD and wide spectrum of autism, these children in adult bodies are starved for validation and meaning.

This first came to me in the 1990’s when Elway and the Broncos started winning Superbowls. We would go downtown to watch the game in a popular bar at the time. In the way down there, walking the streets of Denver, we noticed how many street kid skateboarding and punk rock looking white kids where hanging out, early on a Sunday morning. They were everywhere. We went in the bar all day, ate, drank, watched the game, and were pumped up after our Broncos win. Among all the drunk fans in Orange and blue, were the same street kids we saw that morning...except they were smashing store windows, throwing rocks, climbing street post lights, pulling down signs, flipping everyone off, and screaming into the cold night air. The media blamed the Bronco fans for all the vandalism and chaos. Nope. It was just pre-Antifa... Just getting warmed up.

seems the author is mistaken. not all the hostages have been released, I thought about 20 were un accounted for, presumed dead, and misplaced?
