idk I think it's very dangerous to assume that the Republicans aren't doing exactly what the Republicans want to be doing

Wait just a second, you two agree. Republicans are doing exactly what Republicans want to be doing, supporting ant-democratic authoritarian regimes that kill untold numbers around the world. Alignment with Putin, Orban, Netanyahu, et al is exactly on brand.

Not sure what you thought, if the music is not to your liking, just reading the lyrics as protest poetry is pretty enlightening: www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/genes... @genesisowusu.bsky.social has released some really awesome stuff this year.

I've really taken to reading lyrics lately. I had heard the Beastie Boys song "Alive" more times than I can count and I finally read the lyrics earlier this year and... wow. genius.com/Beastie-boys...

Beastie Boys – Alive“Alive” is Track #19 & the first single from the compilation album, Beastie Boys Anthology: The Sounds of Science. It was released on 2.23.1999. The most prominent sample is fromgenius.com

this is one of my all time favorite songs with lyrics I didn't understand till I read them closely (and was subsequently blown away) www.youtube.com/watch?v=kE8k...

Right! But it's an important distinction between "fulfilling Putins assignments" and "aligning with Putin because they are both evil"

(I think of it as like "the call is coming from inside the house" being worse than "the call is coming from Russia" you know?)

Ответ для Fantastic M. Fox

Ah, now I get you.

Ответ для Jeremy Dunworth

I don't think I explained it very well at first - my fault for not using enough words :(

Ответ для Fantastic M. Fox

It happens. Thanks for being persistent.

Ответ для Jeremy Dunworth

I'd much rather have a conversation than an argument!

Ответ для Fantastic M. Fox

I can agree with that , its not like they love Russia , they just love money and there is a lot of it sloshing around in Russia

Ответ для Amias Channer

Exactly, and its dangerous for people to think that Trump is a Putin puppet or sleeper agent or whatever. It minimizes the evil of the GOP by placing responsibility soleley on Trump and Putin. Its a way of saying "a real american wouldn't do this". A comforting thought but wrong.

Ответ для Some guy

Same thing is true of the people who think that Russia hacked the election and changed votes. Its a way for them to believe that there isn't evil in the hearta of their friends and neighbors. "Surely a majority of people dont REALLY support this." No, they really did.

Ответ для Some guy

exactly, very well put
