Anything to excuse biden and his support for genocide. No need to put pressure on the guy supporting genocide, just on the people who won't toe the line. If you've ever wondered how the holocaust could've been allowed to happen, just look in the mirror.
The great news is there isn't a genocide no matter how many times you repeat it. Willing it to manifest is some woowoo shit
Sick of all these posts throwing guilt on those people sick of an ongoing genocide. What y'all don't realise is at this point where humanity seems.past saving to them, maybe those "people just want to watch the world burn". And they are therefore OK with seeing someone as despicable as Trump win. Just saying that shaming won't get you anywhere in that instance
Lib king with the fearmongering special.
Lmao at Palestinians feeling less safe. They are getting carpet bombed right now.
Maybe another Trump term is what the Democrats need as a wakeup call. They've always taken votes from leftists and Muslim-Americans for granted.
I am disappointing with Lemmy's population. I would expect all these "Biden is bad in one thing but good in the rest" mentality so advocating to vote for him regardless.
First, the "thing" is not minor thing... is a crucial matter where the life of millions of people are completely dispossessed of protection and justice.
Second; There are third candidates... Of course, they don't have a chance and it will be, apparently, a waste of a vote... but only for this November elections! But, if a third candidate, with a genuine distinct message, gets 10-15% of the vote, future candidate will see an incentive to be independent in the future too... Gosh, even both Dem and Rep will be more cautions next time around.
The worse we can do, is to vote the same thing over and over, let alone no voting at all. There is nothing more the duo party loves the most! Encourage those alternative voices, the founding will come alone if hope is there... maybe not in 2024 but for midterms and 2028.
Also, I miss some conservative voices in here (and I am not one!)... I bet there are some non-mainstream ones that could greatly benefit Lemmy's ecosystem too.
So just let Joe Biden do his genocide without consequences?
No. If this is what America is, it deserves to suffer.
And you deserve to suffer for your perpetuating of the fascists systems of America.
I hope you’re happy, I hope you’re proud.
You sat back and did nothing, then complained.
The 6 Palestinians I know (from protests in the US), 2 in Gaza and 1 in the West Bank they all tell me they could care less Biden vs Trump, But if has to be one... with Trump there is more chances of change in the region, even at the cost of more lives. Besides, it will be far easier to regional countries and the European ones to distance from a link between Trump's US and Israel.
