Flight-tracking websites showed dozens of Air Force aerial refueling planes departing from military bases in the United States and heading to Europe on Sunday, fueling speculation of direct U.S. involvement in the widening Israeli-Iranian war.

Military-focused news sites reported that around 30 U.S. Air Force KC-135R and KC-46A tankers were identified by flight-tracking software in what The Times of Israelcalled an “unprecedented mass deployment” to Europe.

    Hate is not going to get you anywhere.

    Yes some of them voted for him but a bunch of them didn’t.

    Stop being defeatist… inform yourself… look at the numbers. Look at the evidence. Get active.

    If you’ve wondered why everything looks like a coup since he got in, perhaps it is because it is one.

    Edit: the upvote/downvote ratio on a comment like this shows how rapidly Lemmy is turning into Reddit. Nobody cares about the data, if you remotely sound like defending the GOP down the chute you go.

    It’s your loss America. I’ll sleep fine as long as we don’t have electronic voting systems here.

      It’s not that we don’t agree with you, it’s that your kinda acting like a dick. Change your tone and you might get a better reception.

        And leading with “hate is not going to get you anywhere” and following it with more blame instead of action.

        Find your local mutual aid group. Volunteer. Protest. Get involved.

          I don’t see blame anywhere?

        [you’re] kinda acting like a dick

        I really don’t see it. I see only advice trying to help them get a healthier point of view. 🤷‍♂️

        Change your tone and you might get a better reception.

        This has literally the same vibe.

          I’m not trying to convince anyone of something. I’m just telling why you’re being downvoted, and it’s not because of the content of your post. I’d post differently if I were trying to make a sincere point.

            I’m not the one who made the “dick” comment…

            I’m not trying to convince anyone of something.

            You’re saying they should change their tone. 🤷‍♂️ Meh. Whatever you say.

                Hahaha WHAT? You’re a liar for saying I’m a sexist and for saying I said those things in DMs. Post whatever evidence you want, you asshole. I dare you.

                Do you also go around saying men raped you when they didn’t?

                God, I was hoping I wouldn’t run into people like this here on Lemmy. I thought Lemmy would be different.

                At least it took over a year or two until I ran into one again. That’s to Lemmy’s credit.

      Many people just aren’t serious enough to take actions that are material beneficial. We want leftist ideas, but no one wants to form a party or vote for one.
