Honestly the first actual sign of resistance from within the Senate chamber.
Resistance seems like a bit much, can we compromise and agree it's the first sign that a Democratic senator has a pulse?
Credit should be given where due: Sen. Booker is about to make history in less than an hour, breaking the record for the longest filibuster in US history.
Edit: He did it! Now it's on every American and person around the world to resist the Trump administration.
That's fair enough, I absolutely agree that his resolve is notable and his voice should be elevated, but will we see that happen in reality?
Booker is a staunch zionist. He should be in prison for supporting the killing of Palestinians.
Okay buddy we'll at least he wants to keep the fascism over there.
Standards are low.
I don't think that's better...
You don’t think it’s better that the country with most powerful military and bases all over the world doesn’t fall to fascism before Israel?
Even if you don’t live in America it seems pretty obvious that is, in fact, better
The point was that the USA is already fascist when it come to the Palestinians, and Booker is in full support of that, so now, i don't see how its "obviously better" that Corey Booker wants to do the Holocaust, but only on foreigners.
Thanks for your contribution, senator McCarthy. Good to know that the people opposed to the position of "full support for fascist genocide is fine, so long as it's being done to foreigners" are the ones who lack empathy and want to cause division.
That seems like a matter of perspective
Yeah, the perspective of those who see foreigners as humans, and the perspectives of fascist white nationalists like you and Booker
