iirc the propaganda line on Morales was that he was attempting to attain indefinite power by stacking a federal court to rule in his favor for the motion. But if he's popular and humane, and doing a good job while challenging coercive capital exchanges, what's the problem with term limits?

Nancy Pelosi last year said she saw the Iraq wmd intelligence and knew nothing was there and said she didn't think impeaching Bush was appropriate.

That doesn't mean a popular govt didn't get coup'd though? The fact Morales' govt was able to win an election despite not being in power is clearly a sign his support isn't coerced. Yeah it's super suspect, y'all are right. The fact that all this poo poo went down after Morales pushed back on exporting lithium reads like a stereotype. Are all of your political opinions wrapped around your love for some loving internet dipshit?

^^^^^ He is pretty clearly wrong here. Fleetwood posted:iirc the propaganda line on Morales was that he was attempting to attain indefinite power by stacking a federal court to rule in his favor for the motion. But if he's popular and humane, and doing a good job while challenging coercive capital exchanges, what's the problem with term limits? Yeah, there's probably more there just because there always is going to be with a national level government, but I'm sure as gently caress not seeing anything that would leave me to believe there'd be any reason to root for the deposing of a popular leader. Reminds me of Kwame Nkrumah. Everything I've read so far seems pretty blatantly to support the idea that Morales was deposed for resource exploitation. also if term limits are some sort of moral imperative when let's put those on congress ASAP.

I can definitely see how somebody with all this information would be reluctant to have him along for a police protest or something, Even if his coverage of civil unrest is extremely sympathetic. It's genuinely suspect. I'm always skeptical when people go after each other because I'm loving sick of circular firing squads.

It's genuinely suspect. and not to be rude here, but it's only logically a circular firing squad if you're fighting with people who actually are at least somewhat on the same side as you, and someone who looks at a literal fascist coup, as in the guys were toting swastikas and held ceremonies where they swore on the bible that they'd get rid of anybody swarthy from positions of power, and is all "well this could be legit who knows" then they're not actually on any decent side

Is there somewhere where the COVID-19 relief bill is broken down entirely with a pie chart? Articles like this only give specific figures totaling up to $0.54 of the $1.9 trillion. I want to know what percentage of it is corporate handouts https://www.cnbc.com/2021/02/22/covid-stimulus-update-house-advances-1point9-trillion-relief-bill.html
