Biden’s narrative of the US leading a “battle between democracies and autocracies” is both harmful and literally incredible: Last year, the Biden administration sold weapons to 57% of the world’s autocratic countries. New from me in The Intercept: theintercept.com/2023/05/11/uni…

Obviously it’s weird conflating feminism with assault weapons but weirder still is trying to project Zionist girlboss feminism when 2 of the parties in Israel’s governing coalition don’t let women stand for political office. Slay!!!!!

The next time a boomer says young people today are poorly behaved… 42% of 18 year olds in the US in 1979 had binged on alcohol, 62% had tried marijuana, & a full quarter had tried amphetamines. Some hedonism that!

It's weird how in parliamentary systems cabinet meetings are a weekly occurance, and then in the U.S. the executive can go so long without meeting, to the extent that meeting less than once a month is a brag about how productive an administration is.
