Wasn't this the administration bragging about approving a record number of fracking permits?

And what has the liberal party done with your vote? Next year is going to be a fucking disaster. The strategy of voting for the least bad option doesn't work when the least bad option keeps getting worse. You can bleat at people to vote for the one party over and over again, but eventually enough people just give up or get desperate for any chance at change and think that voting for the other party will at least shake things up.
A party that insists we have to support genocide is already fascist and has no regard for human rights except to use as bargaining chips to get votes. Sorry.
They need someone to blame. Taking on blame themselves for ignoring voters? That's preposterous! Those votes are clearly owed in the democracy that they're the saviors of.
"Yes, we lost to the republicans. But for a beautiful moment in time we supported genocide with billions of dollars in weapons!" - the democratic party
You mean the speed up in the past year that happened under the democrats? Thanks for proving my point.
That was my point, the illusion of choice. While people are fiercely arguing over voting for one of the two parties, both parties are moving to the right. Now we're at the point where both agree to supporting genocide. We've lost the plot here.
Always responding with "republicans are worse" does nothing except to shut down conversation of the complicity of democrats in all of this. It's like pointing at a homeless person in the US and saying "well it could be worse, they could be homeless in a war-torn country". It locks down the conversation to the two choice fallacy and blocks any conversation on avenues for that real change you are referencing. These voters are misguided, but it's telling that democrats are so shit that these people thought a trump administration could offer anything different.
How do you measure this "speed up"? What you consider a speed up could've simply been the progression of the campaign which would've occurred under democrats as well. Either way the end result is the complete annihilation of the Palestinian people. Do you think starving them all to death is better than bombing them all to death just because it's slower?
Zeng also touched on Musk's leadership style in the Reuters interview, particularly his tendency to set ambitious timelines. Zeng noted that Musk often promises delivery times that are shorter than realistically achievable, a strategy Musk reportedly employs to "push people." This approach has led to skepticism in the industry and among consumers, especially regarding promises about technologies like full self-driving.
Not just to push people, but also to keep investors hyped about the company. He'll throw out all sorts of random crazy vaporware like robots, the full self-driving feature, and robotaxis to keep the stock price in the skies as investor imagine boundless potential. It's perhaps the main reason why the company is valued at more than the next big dozen or so automotive companies COMBINED: https://companiesmarketcap.com/automakers/largest-automakers-by-market-cap/
I voted for Harris, but obviously that didn't work out, did it? If you honestly think republicans would go back to the center after trump is gone then you don't understand republicans.
