PAM: Angry uhh...

Anyhing that comes out of your mouth, if it's not the answer - it is deflection, and henceforth garbage.

    1. Well he showed America why EACH and EVERY vote matters
    2. The consequences of ONE poor decision /indecision on one's part
    3. How one appreciates the good poorly, until the real bad arrives
    4. Why America is actually great. Not because of screw-ups like him, but because of its citizens.

    Disclaimer: I am not an American, I am from a fucked up nation where the vast majority is MAGA equivalent. This is why I have come to love how the people of America have reacted and their understanding and clarity which my unfortunate nation lacks.

    We aren't even in the news because our's is at the fine threshold were we overstep the boundaries a lot but not too much at a time - so it doesn't show. Those who may rise above their own turmaoil to pay even the slightest attention can see it easily, but we are a nation just in the background and the view is blurred by the upheaval of the rest.

    Plz do not ask me which. You might guess correctly or incorrectly and I will not answer.

    Was the Biden administration before Trump's good even after more than a year of genocide in Palestine?

    It wasn't, but that time America was not an active participant in the game. They were amongst those trying to provide aid to Gaza (or atleast that was the official stance).

    The abhorrent behaviour of Trump government is a radically opposite stand. Concentrating the people at aid centers, by taking advantage of their hunger, and then make them sitting ducks.

    These people are so disconnected from themselves, they feel that abstract ideas in their head are more important than actual physical suffering of people.

    WTF? They built a pier off the shore of Gaza that lasted less than a week and airdropped a few crates of food. This is entirely outweighed by the unconditional support of the Israeli government's genocide. They provided everything Israel ever wanted and never made an actual ultimatum to Netanyahu's government. They absolutely were active participants (in fact, the main instigators).

    The abhorrent behaviour of Trump government is a radically opposite stand. Concentrating the people at aid centers, by taking advantage of their hunger, and then nake them sitting ducks.

    This did get a lot of media coverage in early 2025 but AFAIK it's not exactly unprecedented and Israel had already been doing similar things in the early stages of the operation post Oct 7th. At the very least, it's hard to say whether these tactics, as cruel and horrifying as they are, were any more lethal than what they were already doing for a year before that.
