I've never seen PCIntern explain how he can support the party that wishes him and those like him gassed. It's like someone of Judaic origin joining the Nazi party or someone of African derivation signing up with the Ku Klux Klan.

The divide in values and moralitybetween a political party and a cultish faction. DU is the one place where I feel like there's a sense of fairness
"Morality" should never be associated with the Dem Party, and infrequently with politicians in general. "Fairness"? DU is Party-Line only. Were I to dare to post facts inconvenient to or contradiction Dem Party Line, I'd be insta-banned. DU is a lockstep echo chamber. I'm pretty sure that if I were a DU-member and did a few moderately skilled searches I'd find all kinds of expressions of hatred and violent wishes toward pols and normal people DU-folk hate. In the real world of DU, members who dare to post factual news stories from non-Prog-approved sources get crapped on. The term "Reich-Wing source" is a DU creation applied to sources that aren't lockstep Dem Party line compliant.

This January 2024 speech by Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico seems to give us the reasons for the assassination attempt upon him. Part of the reason is Fico's rejection of the WHO pandemic policy but even more because Fico called out the corruption of Ukraine aid money while decrying the senseless slaughter of that proxy war which should have been ended over two years ago had it not been for the intervention of Boris Johnson who nixed the peace agreement reached between Ukraine and Russia.
Hopefully the perp who was apprehended in the wake of the assassination attempt upon the populist Prime Minister won't be shut down by another Jack Ruby. We need to find out his motives and, more importantly, who he was working for.
A Paris Holocaust memorial for the French people who risked their lives to save Jews was vandalized with painted red hands on Monday night, the Shoah Memorial said on Tuesday.
The Wall of the Righteous and other sites in the neighborhood were defaced by hooded individuals, according to the Holocaust Memorial Foundation. The Shoah Memorial said that a complaint had been filed with the police and that an investigation is underway.
Activist group Nous Vivrons shared on Instagram a picture of a building in the Marais district covered in the same red hands.
“We are outraged by this cowardly and hateful act, regardless of the perpetrators and the meaning of these red hands,” said the Shoah Memorial.
