Honestly, with how my day is going, Socialism is a perfect idea to fixing this consumerist dystopia I'm living in. It feels like the fucking Twilight Zone right now where everyone is so God damn dependent on their quick fixes

The big picture: U.S. and Israeli officials believe Iran will respond militarily, but hope it will be limited and allow the two adversaries to break the tit-for-tat cycle.

• The Biden administration is concerned that a significant Iranian response could lead to an all-out war between Israel and Iran.

I mean, yea... of course it would lead to that.
