The Real Dezaad @dezaad.bsky.social · 14h1/ In their frustration at Trump and many others' support of Israel, people are desperate to label the horrors perpetrated in #Gaza a #Genocide. In his #NYT opinion this morning #Gessen performs a calculation, which I think ignores a key thing. First, It is reasonable for Israel to defend itself 100
The Real Dezaad @dezaad.bsky.social · 28/09/2026If Democrats lose the mid-terms in a fair vote, there will be no introspection to follow. It will be the country, the voters, who need to change, not the Democrats. When I advised introspection after 2024, it was with the idea that Trump 2.0 was going to be like 1.0 for the most part. Nope. 000
The Real Dezaad @dezaad.bsky.social · 27/09/2026Trump should not give concessions to Iran, but he should also bear the full domestic political price of not giving concessions to Iran. He started a dumb unnecessary war, but now that he is in it, he should not make concessions. The world will not be better off w an emboldened Iran. 000

The Real Dezaad @dezaad.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Trump is trying to sow distrust in the more objective media institutions so that people who voted for him will have an explanation for why they are souring on him and a reason not to abandon him in the mid-terms. He's lying to them that they've been duped by fake media. 000

The Real Dezaad @dezaad.bsky.social · 19/09/2026People need to be hyper aware that commercial #AI is designed intentionally to give you a dopamine hit when you use it.
