Yes. But that’s not perpetrated by the states, especially not with how many nations support Israel, so it is not correct to call it a genocide by the states

The only differenc

e now is that white people aren’t insulated, so now it’s fascism.

White people are still insulated from the consequences. Also, genocide and mass murder do not require fascism. You’re mistaking every horrible thing to be equivalent to fascism, when in reality democracies can and do still perpetrate such horrors. Mass murder on a foreign country is horrific, and wrong, but that does not automatically make it fascist.

Israel is a US puppet state

With how much they control USA politics, that is blatantly false.

The mask is off.

The degree is different. You think the banning of lgbtq and immigration is the same as before you’re crazy

Literally, no. Trump is a substantial change. Yes, the usa historically has had a massive amount of problems. Trump is not same old but said allowed, he’s a new level of psychotic and demented fascism. The previous stuff was what laid the foundation for a full on fascist to come to power.

the genocide already ongoing.

There was no genocide perpetrated by the states prior to trump in the last 20 years. Gaza, if that’s what you mean, while supported far too much by the states is done by Israel.

The degree is different.

Saying that when trump is bringing about fascism is ironic.

And that attitude gets people telling me “oh, you’ll love my dog!” When you actually genuinely. do not like dogs. It’s a pain.

Once they win elections, it’s already too late.

Hey what do you think stops them from winning that first election?

Risk aversion alone makes it worth having 2 plants colonized. Putting all your eggs in one planet basket is poor long term risk management. But that’s more thinking in the hundreds of thousands and millions of years before that becomes relevant.

Yeah tell me how that would’ve worked/ is working for Ukraine.

No one did.

A third of America voted for this. More realistically closer to 2/3 because everyone who didn’t vote is complicit in electing trump

Mandatory service is not a problem. As long as we live in a world with countries like russia mandatory service does more good than harm.

This implies that when you don’t have more than you need you should build a wall. Is that the point?

Degrading women is cool when it’s people you don’t like

Overly optimistic. They’re trying to steal the election.

Bikes. People should use cars, especially in cities. And I say that without qualifiers.

Because people have an extreme case of the feels for cats and judge their morals purely based on what’s cute, and are fine with the deaths of cows and other animals but not pets. A disturbing amount of people care about the fully arbitrary distinction between pet and animal

Sometimes semantics are worth talking about.

Nobody is infallible. It’s perfectly possible to miss a small detail. Though it does look suspicious

Tankie is all the lemmy users who think china and russia are somehow paradises and not police states.

The whole point of ghost writing is the don’t need to have the name attached lol

No NATO/EU country wants Ukraine to fall, and they will pour every resource into defending it.

They’re not showing any signs of doing as such.

Honestly despite being an ocean away the united states has already chipped in a large amount of real aid. The EU, being rich countries themselves, should not be relying so heavily on a nation that was already on the brink of fascism.
