The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

DIVIDE and conquer his a great strategy---the Europeans have done it for human history when they rape and plunder.

I was waiting for an Israeli "surprise" in this one and frankly I thought it would be way worse than this. Mind you I dont underestimate dividing the voters but still, I thought it would be heavier.

Unlike the Sheeple I've been open about wanting Sayed to win----he's been a remarkable candidate so far and I'm able to put aside differences in my philosophy---for the greater goal - a slow end to Israeli slave-grip on America's government and other levers.

The is the one I'm most interested in as a spectator who likes politics as a sport -- AND as one who can put aside differences if that 1 big thing is in the cards.

Mamdani. Sayed.

"There's something happening here....." ?

My hope is over the long term it gives cloud cover to politicians - incumbents - who are sick of being on Israel's plantation but scared to lose their office.

Of course the 'rebranding' will happen where 'Bibi is gone' --and for Sheeples who like to fixate on ONE person- the problem will be solved. I'm hoping we don't fall for that.

Who knows, Iraq was one. Now Iran. Maybe my Republican side will figure out -- it's not worth the post-birth-abortions of American soldiers, you know, the "Troops we support" to go die for incomplete objectives-----and also to get our asses kicked politically and economically.

It's too bad. John Q public in Iran has more in common with John Q Public in America then the ruling class would like us to know.

There's been some affinity between MAGA and Social Conservatives, and Muslim americans where it comes to local school issues.

I'd rather build on that and in the process, more americans are upright and alive, less trillions are wasted in getting our asses kicked in Iraq or Iran or one day Syria, and maybe fewer young men take to their version of country music that says "My house was blown up by Israel and America helped them. And my life sucks and I'm told it's due to America. So now I got me a travel visa and flying lessons and imma going to Disneyland"
