It lines up with the message of the image. If you're willing to sacrifice one set of rights then all rights are up for negotiation as well. Feel free to explain to me how that's not the case.

I'm not even sure that's the case. I went to a restaurant where there was a required "tip" (regardless of party size) and then they gave the option for an additional tip. I assume they did that because a large enough percentage of patrons did not tip and I assume this is what businesses in the US would do in general, rather than just increase the prices on the menu which would give customers a more clear picture of what they'll be spending.

The right to not be genocided... apparently negotiable.

Indeed. Imagine the enormous stupidity it takes to think votes can be won by ignoring voters. Only a massive moron would think such a tactic would work. Good thing no one is that idiotic.

How about I shame you for supporting genocide

I'm not the one sending billions in weapons to support the genocide and then telling voters "other guy worse" to justify it. You obviously think the democratic party strategy which so severely lost them the election is a brilliant strategy, so this discussion will obviously go nowhere. Have fun posting your memes about burning houses while defending arsonists (instead of being open to the suggestion of perhaps not doing arson) and feeling morally superior because the other party has more destructive arsonists.

If pointing out similarities between the parties is a voter suppression tactic, then democrats should try being different from the republicans instead of kissing dick cheney's ass and screaming that they need to move even further to the right after every election defeat. You cannot shame me for criticizing support of genocide.

Something to keep in mind when people are suggesting AI be used to replace teachers.

Comic is too optimistic because here the fire was extinguished. In reality the fire has only gotten larger and is surrounded by all sorts of volatile elements.

The process from approval to actual drilling and extraction takes longer than that. Also, we've been a net exporter for longer than biden has been in office.

The US is a net exporter of oil and the country that we import most of our oil from is Canada: https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=727&t=6

Iran has been a constant for decades, so that isn't a factor. While Russia has been sanctioned, their oil is still being bought up at a steep discount by India and China, so those countries' demand for oil from other sources are reduced and the impact to the oil markets are likely insignificant overall.
