Just because Isreal are bad guys, does not make Hamas good guys.

That's the worst part for the Palestinian people - no matter who wins the conflict, they lose.

I tend to favor Ace, just because I have one close by and they're all franchise stores (which means local ownership of the individual store, at least, which softens the blow of shitty corporate practices).

Menard's is another option, but I have no idea if they're any better on this issue than Home Depot or True Value.

Hm. Of the three companies named, the only one I did business with is Lowe's.

Did.

It is absolutely not fine when Israel does that.

Yup, but because the Electoral College weighs some votes more than others, that doesn't matter.

They already attack her for not supporting Israel's genocide enough.

If you think Republicans are going to do anything to stop Israel from wiping every single Palestinian off the face of the earth, you're an idiot.

Probably not, but I'm sure some people are really gonna go, "I wasn't going to bother voting, but Taylor said I should vote for Kamala."

At this point, this is a game of turnout.

Besides her being perhaps the most popular musician on the planet with a rabid fanbase that will do pretty much anything she tells them to, there's also the fact that Trump tried to ride her coattails by posting an AI slop poster claiming she was endorsing him, basically forcing her hand here.

But make no mistake. Maybe this won't affect you or me, but there are a lot of young women who are going to look at Harris much more fondly because she got Taylor's endorsement.

Don't forget that old standard, "She should shut up and sing!"

I'm still not sure why there is vegetarian Spam, but...

Because there are Hawaiians who don't eat meat.

Oh, they weren't investing for a direct monetary return, I'm sure. Anyone with eyes could see Truth Social is a dumpster fire.

No, they were looking for political returns, and those are looking more and more risky.

Honestly, the fact that it's even close enough for that to matter is a damning indictment of our society. How January 6 wasn't the end of Trump's political career and the start of a prison term, I'll never know.
