The US forgets about everything on pretty much a weekly basis. Blame the 24 hour news cycle, I guess.

Targeting for the weapon itself is done by a human remotely at least right?

...

...right?

*eta: yeah, it looks like it has a remote driver who can take over the steering and control the gun with a little PS4 controller thingy

I've seen theories that the attacks were timed and motivated to drive a wedge in the normalization talks between Saudi Arabia and Israel, which would also be a huge problem for Iran. So, yeah, seems like they would also have motive to fan those flames.

Drag performers usually aren't trans women, just to let you know. Just people doing a performance.

Some of these programs end up saving the governments money, due to reducing other costs like policing, shelters, and maybe also increased tax revenue due to these people improving their employment situations, thus paying taxes.

It may be the case that a less targeted program, ie an actual broad-based UBI, would have an actual cost associated with it. There are a lot of benefits to reducing poverty that reduce the drag on other government support systems, though.

Wait, sorry can you expand on the "gay mafia?" Was there an organized group of The Gays or was it more like some leaders being outed and having that used against them? Or something completely different lol

If they're both shit, I'll take the option where people can at least make a joke about it without being arrested any day.

Hi, just letting you know intersex people exist. Sometimes when you're wrong, that's an opportunity to grow as a person.

Yeah, it's a counterfactual so it's hard for anyone to say with certainty when there are so many factors at play. That was sort of my point though, since the statement in OP's article implies that Obrador is categorically wrong here.
