@NOTokwhat@M3gawither@AnimarchyYT It is the best guess they have based on reporting by healthcare workers and aid workers, but neither have a complete/accurate accounting, since the hospitals and government infrastructure have been destroyed and northern Gaza has been evacuated.
@NOTokwhat@M3gawither@AnimarchyYT 80,000 is likely a massive undercount due to the complete collapse of civil society and service following the invasion.
@picopaco18 @BattleSquire90 Not actually though. The stats in this meme are not true- and while the samurai mentality was effective at killing civillians and barely trained conscripts, the IJA's record against peer forces was mediocre past 42'
@LGBTQPete Biden didnt win Iowa either- he needed Clyburn to get him a single primary win in SC, after which Obama pulled together the endorsements of the no-momentum candidates behind Biden and shifted the primary in his favor.
Biden later went on to win decisively in the general.
@padmehours Can you imagine how good the show wouldve been if it gave her something to do outside of 2 good fight scenes, and didn't kill her off right then?
Im not even saying she needed to survive- just give her stuff to do so we actually care when shr dies.
@LordFerpez@WolfdawgArt Nope. The only thing that hurts the suit is this, and even then, it doesnt incapacitate the suit after multiple hits

@MMinnym45@ShineboxHukster@EmmaVigeland Elites, sure, but the emnity from the working class towards the dems has little to do with progressive policy.
Bernie, for example, supported both social progressivism, and economic progressivism, and pulled many blue collar voters in bpth primaries he was in.
@qq_noo@ShineboxHukster@EmmaVigeland Candidate Biden pre-concessions to Bernie was a solid corpratist with a few Obama-era policies tacked on. Post concessions he was significantly better, and my opinion on him improved.
Post election, he abandoned much of his progressive platform, and my opinion worsened.
@ShineboxHukster@EmmaVigeland Literally nothing you said just now is true.
But more relevantly- the blue-collar vote goes to the side that speaks to them financially.
Biden was forced to make concessions that way b/c of bernie, and he hated every second of it. Harris didnt, and she lost them. Simple as.
@whstancil Also there was the whole, "actively supporting an ethnic cleansing for a year" bit, but Im sure that wasnt important.
Its not like Michigan was a must-win state or anything.
@whstancil Dude all he talked about was NATO, how, "good" the economy was, and insulin.
Only 1 of those is a kitchen table issue, and even that one is a bit niche.
He was too old, and far to centrist, to effectively campaign on the actual progressive wins he made during his term.
@DiamondSpiderP@Georgeabrams53 This 1000%. If you didnt watch wandavision, her character change hits you out of left field, and is incomprehensible. If you did, it works as a hard 180 from her arc, rendering the whole show pointless, and betraying the emotional payoff to its climax.
