I think people also often focus on an incomplete picture of AIPAC's campaign finance operation. they have the dark money that everyone focuses on, but they also have a mass donor base that mostly donates direct to campaigns, either via out-in-the-open bundling or more clandestine fundraising efforts
KevinAIPAC has a mass base of rich older mostly Jewish Americans that funds its shit, though the super PAC arm draws a lot of its money from megadonors tbf

Yeah in 2026 if you're pushing for new Nuclear I assume you're either paid by legacy energy companies or manipulated by those paid by legacy energy companies. If you're bemoaning the lack of construction in 1976, though, you're just correct to bemoan it.

the insistence by conservatives that the most tedious shit is 'punk' should result in jail time
flyingrodentAll this shows is that even Britain’s most iconoclastic, rules-breaking rebels of 1980s music are just another bunch of boring as fuck driving-gloves Tories

Three Mile Islans did less damage to human health and the environment then the average coal mine.
