"This is the behavior of a crazy person.

Trump is a massive failure as president. He has allowed a genocidal monster to take over the foreign policy of the United States.

Trump has permitted Netanyahu to drag America to the threshold of war with Iran."

    Same thing we did when netanyahu was the de facto president last year: Speak truth, get ignored at best and met with hostility most of the time.

    It’s not hostility for being against genocide.

    Bullshit.

    It’s hostility for ignoring the genocide you have triggered back in the US. For people who were supposedly against genocide, you sure did help trump get elected, which made the thing you supposedly “care” about, about 100 times worse.

    You just want someone to blame now that your second favorite candidate is carrying out your only policy for you. If people who don't adore everything netanyahu does weren't worth listening to, you don't get to blame us when what we tried to warn you would happen happens.

    Hope your moral righteousness can stop ICE.

    Your moral cowardice made this happen.

    You know what made this happen is a bunch of so-called leftists who make voting for the President (or even worse, withholding their vote) their only political act.

    We could change the world if we’d unite and get involved in primaries and get out and inspire and educate. But instead we sit at our computers and shitpost and laud our own supposed moral superiority and deride other leftists who are only slightly different than us while everything in the real world just gets incrementally worse and worse.

    WHAT FUCKING PRIMARIES? We didn't have any last year because your shitty wing of the party decided we shouldn't have a choice. After all, we might choose someone who wasn't hell bent on wiping out Gaza like party leadershit wanted.

    I'm specifically talking about EACH AND EVERY FUCKING PRIMARY. No one except a small bunch of boomers ever bothers to take part in these. You're proving my point by instantly assuming that presidential primaries are the only primaries. This is a crisis that has only been enabled over decades by the apathy and lack of participation of leftists.

    You’re proving my point by instantly assuming that presidential primaries are the only primaries.

    The party denying us all a choice because they prefer genocide to letting their voters choose their candidate is emblematic of a deeper issue within the party and its primary system. I can provide additional examples of the party's malfeasance during the primaries. That was just the most glaring.

    This is a crisis that has only been enabled over decades by the apathy and lack of participation of leftists.

    This is a crisis because the party runs dishonest primaries when it deigns to run them at all.

    Well, you're blaming the anti-genocide left for the loss the pro-genocide center earned.

    That was the comment I just replied to.

    If we're to blame, if harris' loss is our doing, then we're kingmakers and you were fools to ignore us.

    If we were too insignificant to listen to, then we're too insignificant to blame.

    I have a fantasy of a really long stockade with a lot of people just lined up in a row next to each other, and someone using a Force-wielded lightsaber just sliding down the rope of them.

    And every time I try to figure out who would be in it, it gets longer. But it would for sure include every conservative in the White House, in the Senate, in the House, and I'm the Supreme Court. Just the entire lot of them, none are redeemable as leaders, as politicians, as elected, or even as low as adult humans.

    If the worst thing they can put on my story is "he wished he was a force user that just chopped off Nazi heads", then I'm ok with that.

    I don't need a court to rule that he's a Nazi. And killing a Nazi is always ok in any circumstance. I'd argue in any manner as well, but I can hear out valid arguments otherwise. But I feel a simple beheading wouldn't go a foul of most people's sensibilities.

    Biden publicly described himself as a Zionist and supported genocide while wagging his finger. Trump and his cabinet are even worse -- as expected. I mean a suggestion to evict (kill?) the residents and turn it into a resort is beyond reason.

    I hope we don't get into war with Iran. Between the Republicans and Democrats that are legally bribed by aipac I think we're screwed either way.

    Hopefully that 400 million dollar jet Qatar bribed Trump with gives him pause about going to war. His money making schemes are starting to conflict and he is very impulsive, so it's hard to tell what's next.

    Biden continued shipping weapons to a country that was (and still is) actively engaged in genocide. If that doesn’t meet your definition of “supporting genocide”, then what does?

    Edit: replaced the vague “he” with the more specific “Biden” at the beginning of the post.

    The Uniparty, D and R together have only gone in one direction creating the climate and situation.
    They did nothing to prevent or defuse it, on the contrary.
    Warmonger and zionist Biden and all those before him paved the way and let Satanyahu know he can do anything they want.
    Biden is definitely not irrelevant, if he is you could say the same from Trump since he is just another face in a never ending line of genocide enablers.

    Americans when Republicans do the thing:

    More seriously what Americans should have done to get a president not in the pocket of mass murderer Netanyahu was get the Democrats to actually represent their constituents, but lesser evil politics prevailed and now we're here. If you want a president not in the pocket of mass murderer Netanyahu now you'll have to overthrow Trump and install one yourself.

    Why didn’t you say anything when Biden was doing the same thing?

    99% of Americans will simply never see that 99% of politicians support Netanyahu and his killing of children across the Middle East.

    America, the whole of it, supports genocide.

    But nah, democrats will call me a tankie and say some shit about who I voted for, and never look in the mirror once.

    Americans are only ever going to care after every child is dead. That’s our liberal tradition. Supporting liberation only if it isn’t in the present day.
