The discourse on American politics sometimes devolves to “Leftists who won’t vote” & “MAGA Republicans” teaming up to “getting revenge on liberals”.

    If Imran Khan sitting in jail can win at a fraudulent election run by the Pakistani army even after his party members were arrested and assasinated, surely the DNC can run a candidate who isn’t happy to fund a genocide so they will actually get enough votes to win.

    Imagine trying to convince someone to vote between Hitler and Stalin. Like “Yeah I’ll take Hitler please because at least he won’t kill all of us equally like Stalin. He actually cares about germany because he’s building infrastructure.”

    Biden couldn’t even hold on to his fake penny throw of sanctioning a whopping 7 Israeli settlers. He could at least pretend to care.

    He still has time to redeem himself with quite literally one of the lowest bars you could ever have, but the DNC is happy losing if it means the USA stays peachy keen with AIPAC.

      If you think there’s a simple solution to the Gaza issue you’re an idiot.

      If you think the wannabe dictator who tried to override the election and install himself as a real dictator is even comparable to Biden, because Biden doesn’t have a solution to a thousand year old conflict then you’re an idiot.

      So either you’re an idiot who has no idea what’s going on or you’re a Putin puppet.

        Israel became a thing less than a 100 years ago, and this genocide started 6 months ago.

        This statement is almost as idiotic as your assumption that anyone who disagrees is either brain dead or a Putin bot.

        How low does one have to go to defend someone who has all the power to decide not to fund a genocide. He just approved a sale of 2000 MK84s and 500MK82s as if he wants Israel to finish the job.

          Yes the Jewish people didn’t exist before Israel. The Jewish Diaspora never happened. The crusades didn’t happen. The Europeans didn’t colonize, divide and create proxy wars.

          Netanyahu is a shithead that allowed a bunch of medieval terrorists kill his people so he can retain power.

          Civilians have been getting slaughtered in that region for millennia fighting their own brothers because they are carrying the wrong flag.

          No we shouldn’t be content with Palestinians dying, but you can’t deny Hamas wanted this response and wanted their people to die because that’s how they raise funding and support.

          It’s a shitty messy situation with civilians being used as pawns.
