$200 to feed a plane full of people sounds pretty reasonable tbh.

Lazy work, Ted.

i think the only term i've learned in law school that i like for everyday life is "summary judgment" where you're just saying "even if everything they say is factually true, their conclusion is still bullshit."

so i'm gonna summary judgment the anti-china stuff for a moment, and say that even if china is some kind of draconian hell (it isn't, but that is besides the point), what business is it of mine when america routinely murders my poc neighbors, grinds the poor into dust, and is actively burning the planet? i can't affect policy in the united states, what am i supposed to do about the imaginary evil china?

and this is substantively different than me attending pro-palestine events, because america is almost entirely responsible for the genocide. it's a de facto american policy.

remember when they screened the hot cheetos movie at the white house for latino outreach:

quote:

https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/15/us/politics/biden-flamin-hot-screening.html
The president and Jill Biden, the first lady, were on hand for a screening of “Flamin’ Hot,” a new film about Richard Montañez, who worked as a janitor at Frito-Lay and rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a marketing executive.

Mr. Montañez also claims to have invented the spicy, finger-staining snack — but a Los Angeles Times investigation found that he very likely did not.

In any case, the Bidens and Eva Longoria, the director of the film, told about 600 attendees that the screening celebrated an immigrant story rooted in the United States.

“Opportunity is a cornerstone of our democracy and the American dream,” Mr. Biden said after pumping his fist at the mention of Cheetos. “And as you’ll see in the film, that’s exactly what the Hispanic community embodies: opportunity, courage.”
...
“We’re here to stay,” one audience member shouted at Mr. Biden. “You’re drat right you are,” the president replied.

It was one of the more festive atmospheres of the Biden era. A Mexican folk ensemble played. Invitees lounged on picnic blankets and sipped margaritas. Mariachi band members stayed in uniform after playing to enjoy chips and guacamole.

But chips had nothing on Cheetos. A White House staff member lugged a cardboard box around, handing out bags of the corn snacks. The tablecloths of the outdoor bars were Cheetos orange. One attendee wore Cheetos-themed high socks, and another wearing an orange jacket could be heard telling her friend that she, too, was a “Flamin’ Hot Cheeto.”
...
“If you’re trying to appeal to Hispanic voters,” Mr. Troy said, “just getting 20 people in a room is not that much.”

Melissa Morales, the president of Somos Votantes, an organization that conducts outreach to Latino voters, said the film could resonate with Latina viewers like herself. She said she remembers running around as a child with red fingers “because I was eating hot Cheetos all the time.”

“To have that experience and what it seems like millions of other Latinos experienced onscreen,” she said, is “pretty amazing
.”

They almost certainly would have kept delaying it, the lack of preparation for the evacuation that actually happened showed they had done no actual work to fulfill the timeline they were working under. The speed and success of the Taliban offensive caught Washington completely off guard. Washington thought that it'd take the Taliban a minimum of 6 months, probably a year, to reach Kabul. In reality it took the Taliban 3 weeks. Had the Afghan army made any serious defensive stands--even doomed ones, you'd have had a ton of people in DC champing at the bit to come rushing bombing to the rescue.
