I’m right here. Democrats are still evil for supporting a genocide, and your “lesser of two evils” logic continues to make us more evil.

What do you think of the 30 days the Democrats gave Israel to improve the humanitarian situation by measurable metrics? Israel failed every metric, but the Democratic administration ignores the results and continues to ship weapons to the genocidal regime.

What do you think of the dozens of international doctors who have been to Gaza saying they saw children with single gunshot wounds to the head almost everyday? Reports are widespread that israeli snipers are intentionally killing 100s of children each month.

What do think of Israels recent use of small arms drones? After an American/Israeli bomb destroys a civilian building, a dozen small drones swarm the area. These drones fire small cube-shaped projectiles with the force to pierce skin and break bones, using AI to target any human in the designated area. They are deadly accurate and fast, firing 3 at the head, 3 at the chest, and 3 at the groin. Doctors say these projectiles are especially hard to fish out of the bodies of the child victims as they rarely exit the body, instead they bounce around causing more internal damage.

Suggesting that the people upset about an ongoing genocide are just going to forget about it due to electoral politics is disgusting, and you should feel ashamed.

The word genocide has not lost its meaning, you just obviously never understood it.

It is not about numbers of dead. The world considers the Bosnians to be victims of a genocide, but “only” 8000 people died in Srebrenica.

The US set out specific criteria, such as 350 aid trucks need to enter every day.

Now the results are in, only 40 trucks a day were allowed in, and starvation is getting worse. Will the US stick to its word and withhold weapons to Israel? Of course not.

It is now blatantly obvious this whole sceme was a lie to influence the election.

Lying to the American public while supporting a genocide, this is exactly why Democrats deserved to lose this election.

I agree, but why are we picking on the stupid, well-meaning idiots?

This election results show 10s of millions of Americans support fascism, and many different demographics failed to show up to support Kamala.

Singling out the Palestinian support just feels like Islamophobia, or perhaps an emotional reaction to being accused of supporting a genocide.

They said loudly for over a year that, if democrats continue to ship unlimited weapons to an ongoing genocide, that their votes would be forfeit. Maybe you disagree with that tactic, but every person has a right to vote their conscience in this country.

Democrats made the decision to explicitly exclude Palestinians from the party. Why would you think that the blame falls upon the voter and not the party that abandoned them?

Yeah fuck those people who care about an ongoing genocide! My feelings about the recent election are more important! /s

I think we should have killed more Nazis back when we had the chance.

Drop Site News is a new organization founded by two well respected journalists, Jeremy Scahill and Ryan Grim.

My friend, you are still confused.

I was giving the framing that comes from the billionaire owned western media oligopoly position.

that isnt my position

What gave you the idea that I’m dismissing them? I think you’re confused.

Good quote tho

I think the “temporarily embarrassed millionaire” idea is overstated, most people I interact with have a somewhat negative outlook on the economy and their future wealth.

I think the real issue is that no viable alternative is presented to most people.

The alternatives presented are Russian-style authoritarian oligarchy, Islamofascism, or a Venezuela-style “socialism” in which the narrative only focuses on poverty.

Are you paying attention to the media lately? Its filled with outright lies, warmongering, and bloodthirst.

Just like the lead up to the Iraq war.

Not sure why you would think that…

The Iraq war gave W. a 20 point boost in his approval rating, it lasted for over half a year.

After America’s unprovoked and genocidal bombing campaign in Cambodia ended, the remaining ordinance has killed 20k and injured 60k more.

For my fellow Americans, that is five 9/11s.

The bombs still claim a handful of lives and a few dozen limbs in 2024.

Sorry to say, NATO membership is just the carrot on the stick that the US uses to lead Ukraine around.

Do you really believe the US considers Ukraine a “true ally”? All the evidence shows that Ukraine is just another useful tool to weaken Russia. US Senators admit this reality from the Senate floor.

Not everyone wants this conflict to end, some are getting very rich.

Of course, any deal that relies simply on Putin’s word isn’t worth the paper its printed on.

Well-designed peace deals never rely on honor. They rely on mutual benefit, verification, with agreed-upon punishments for failure.

Yes of course Putin wants as much land as he can get.

I’m also saying that, if the deal had been reached in spring 2022, Ukraine would control more territory than it currently controls now. And there would be at least 100,000 more Ukrainians alive that wouldnt have been sacrificed to Putin’s meat grinder. Thousands of murdered Ukrainian civilians would still be alive.

Or if you’d like me to be more specific, the US and the UK.

I have no idea what could have given you that silly idea. I’m being realistic about the issues that go along with US military support.

The US is treating Ukraine the same way it treated Afghanistan during the Soviet war. Afghanistan, just like Ukraine, was the victim of an unjust invasion. We (the US) supported the opposition to the Soviets, and we handed them billions in weapons. We were on the right side.

But we also sabotaged peace deals to prolong the war. We increased the ferocity and brutality of the fighting. We meddled in local politics, choosing winners and losers. This pattern did not end well for the people of Afghanistan, and I fear a similar fate for the people of Ukraine.

So you’re saying the west is providing enough weapons to keep the conflict going, but not providing the weapons Ukraine says it needs to win the war? Hmmm
