Which is why it's a shame to see you fight each other as if that isn't the case.

I would wholeheartedly recommend reading How To Win Friends And Influence People (or at least this summary). Especially if you're trying to convince people to vote in the midterms.

Elmo (people discussing US midterms here) choosing between fruits (trying to understand before making their point) and cocaine (infighting and proving each other wrong at all cost).

I will never see the world through your chauvinistic lens. Human rights are universal.

Your supposed rights and liberties are just selective privileges enjoyed on the backs of the oppressed.

I can't believe your making quantitative allowances for genocide. Wow.

You deserve everything you permit onto others. And I really do hope you get it.

    Well not making them just made the quantities bigger. The problem with equating evils because they only differ by "degree", is that it only peels off the voters who care about qualitative genocide, which tend to be those who vote against the greater quantitative genocide. The inevitable result is the total lack of qualitative reduction, and the quantitative increase of genocide.

    The actual people who make up that quantitative increase do not deserve that which you've permitted them. I had really hoped they wouldn't get it.

    Dude. STFU.

    More people died under Biden and you still won't STFU.

    Yeah no, I don't think you have any evidence to show that. You're just making things up.

    OMFG, this something you could easily look up if you're weren't such a buffoon or shameless liar.

    While the genocide is ongoing, the worst atrocities happened under Biden, with Biden's weapons, all while Biden spread debunked blood libel lies from his campaign podium about "beheaded babies in ovens" that he "saw with his own eyes".

    The numbers are slightly higher because Biden had the beginning. Pareto principle, they got all the easy genocide done up front. It's not like the numbers are lower now because support has reduced, because support has only increased.

    Show me a reduction in direct US support. The US isn't directly killing Palestinians, that's Israel. The US is providing the money and weapons Israel uses, so track the money and weapons, not the deaths.

    Is the US providing more, or less, money and weapons to Israel now, or under Biden?

    I guess I'm google. Fuck me. Right? Biden: $17.9 BILLION Trump: $11.1 BILLION

    And every administration before has sent an average of $3-4BILLION every year to maintain the occupation, with about the same going to the Egyptian dictatorship to maintain the occupation on the other side of the border.

    Also, nearly 100,000 died in the height of the genocide under Biden, many lost in rubble to never be identified. While the genocide is still unfolding, 1,400 have died since Trump pulled the leash on Netanyahu with his supposed ceasefire.

    You're just making up whatever sounds truthy to you.

    My guy, you are just Blue MAGA. America was NEVER great, not with Trump, not before Trump.

    Clearly you aren't because Google puts Trump at over $21 billion. So yeah, exactly my point. Just make up numbers that sound truthy to you so you can pretend your stupid, selfish actions didn't help make things worse.

    My guy I'm not "blue MAGA" , you're just regular MAGA whether you know it or not. At no point did I say anything about greatness, but you have to pretend I did because my actual point makes you look stupid and selfish. Stop making shit up, it's pathetic.

    I said since Biden, and several billion a year going back decades under all administrations. I'm sorry math is hard for you.

    Yes, several billion a year under every administration. Which means your vote, or lack thereof, did not help Gaza. I don't know why this is so difficult for you to wrap your head around. You can draw all the lines in the sand you want, but unless your actions are actually making a positive difference it's just moral masturbation, and it's making you go blind.

    A positive difference would be letting the U.S. fall, not bolster it with false legitimacy like you're advocating for.

    It must be hard for you to imagine.

    Again, you're just making shit up. Absolutely no evidence that your goal will have the outcome you want, or that your actions will even bring about that goal. Purely vibes-based geopolitics.

    You're not a serious adult. But sure, keep deluding yourself into believing you're not making things worse, just do it silently so you don't infect others with your nonsense.
