It’s gonna be like when the Dems told everyone to stem. Eventually there will be more supply than demand and people will be screwed.

"you gotta learn to code jack" or whatever dumb **** Biden said.
idk what's so hard to understand that we need all sorts of jobs... the trade slurping republicans do is so annoying and cringe. like mf'er I'm only here because it covers all the stuff like healthcare my bum *** government won't.
nobody wakes up and says "I wanna join the trades" it's just some **** that happens and you randomly get a job when you don't know what else do do.
nobody ever woke up and said I want to build roads or do structural concrete but you hear the pay and benefits and they got you.

my biggest thing with this is all these gop politicians and other high profile figures who push the trades so hard while also ****ting on college and going to university at the same time never have any of their kids pursuing the trades for some reason. all their kids are in some "woke liberal indoctrination university" and they have no interest in seeing their own kids pursue a career in the trades. baron trump can easily be a welding apprentice right now instead of taking classes at woke libtard nyu.
and by all means the trades are dope, plenty of money in them if you move right. but it's just so disingenuous to me how alot of the high profile gop heads who openly push them so hard never have their own kids go that route.

First off, she is a communist (which is based). In practice, she'll vote like a social democrat/progressive in the US Congress. That's fine, BTW, she's marching through the instituitions and using the right messaging.
Due to rampant capitalist propaganda, certain words scare the general public.
DAR gets around the gotcha questions and reframes her answers as an arguement for socialism without mentioning the scary "-ism" words themselves.
Can't wait to see her in Congress.
We've got history at our backs, comrade.

Same republicans who sarcastically say “highways are racist” also do everything they can to strip the roads from bike lanes.
They know what they’re doing, and they hope you don’t notice the doublespeak.

In my opinion Iran war coverage from Iran's perspective is nearly impossible to find with media in the US
I recommend BBC.com for more Iran focused coverage

The thing with Iran, Iraq, Vietnam, etc, is that you have to expend multiple times more resources to do minimal damage. The war is on the other side of the world, meaning you have to be stationed out there, meaning you’re spending millions just to exist in that space. You’re also shipping supplies to that location. To top it off, you’re bombing dirt and low cost infrastructure.
You know how hard it is to get the world to back Iran of all places? Yet here we are.

I mean they lie about literally everything else but I'm definitely sure they're being transparent about this thing

Also, it’s pretty obvious that Iran’s government couldn’t care less about the impact on their citizens. That kind of pressure only has a chance when the citizens actually have a voice.
They already tried to protest before the war and got massacred by the thousands even by Iran’s own government statistics (~3000 deaths). If anything, some of those citizens are probably more favorable to the regime now.
