Remember: Every mile of land lost by #Ukraine this month to Russian invaders is the direct result of #GOP intransigence and refusal to stand by our allies just so they could make Biden look bad.
Every Republican legislator is a threat to national security. Every. Single. One. Treat them as such.
@Crell not really sure how that’s a non-sequitur argument. If Ukraine is a laundromat, it stands to reason that some legislators would oppose throwing more money in the tub. You assume it’s to “make Biden look bad.” Both major parties suck! Why can’t we just keep politics off this platform and stick to tech-related content? I get enough of this on twitter.
@tress777 I'm not assuming. I'm quoting. The GOP has been very open about opposing various deals just to avoid giving Biden a "win". Trump has specifically told them to, in public. Trump is also well documented as being compromised by Putin, so there's the potential treason, too.
Meanwhile, Russia continues to commit war crimes and genocide in Ukraine, daily.
@tress777 As for "keeping the politics off the platform," no.
We're whole people. Dismissing concerns about injustice because you're not interested in them is a sign that you don't care about injustice. The tech world especially desperately needs to understand and care about injustice, especially the injustice it actively causes. "Tech without politics" is the politics of exploitation.
If you can't handle me at my political, you don't deserve me at my technical.
