      Right here. Republicans being worse doesn’t excuse selling weapons for an ongoing genocide. Democrats never should have done that. And it got you nothing. You supported genocide for nothing.

      I think a lot of the hostility here is because centrists are mad that trump is going to be able to take credit for the complete implementation of their only policy.

        I wonder if any of you are ever going to realize you’re just doing reskinned Protocols of the Elders of Zion antisemitism with this

          The Elders Of Zion is a bullshit made up hoax book for propaganda purposes. Unless you’re referencing it as such, it is not a work to be cited in any serious context.

            They very obviously are. How could you possibly read their comment otherwise?

      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.

        Hear hear.

        People ignore that Biden’s policy was simply indefensible. He fought his own party, he fought his advisors and the media and he STILL lost the election. There’s no longer a need to carry water for him.

      Are you asking if we still think Biden and Harris are complicit in the ongoing genocide? Yeah, yeah we do. Shit is bad right now, long before Trump takes office.

      It still applies? Just because the Republicans are exponentially worse doesn’t mean the democrats weren’t supporting genocide too.

        No, it doesn’t apply at all.

        The point of the anti-Dem posts was to get people to not vote Dem when objectively allowing a trump win was worse.

        You’re suggesting actively supporting worse is better.

        That’s fucked up.

          I’m not at all suggesting supporting worse is better and I have no clue how you came to that conclusion. Allowing a Trump win was absolutely worse and I agree it would have been better for everyone to suck it up and vote blue.

          That being said its incredibly fucked up to pretend the democrats are completely innocent which is just blatantly not true. They are better by comparison, but definitely not innocent and still supportive of genocide.

          I’m not talking about the posts, I’m talking about you guys trying to sweep shit under the rug. It doesn’t work like that.

            There is no “you guys trying to sweep shit under the rug”. It doesn’t work like what you’re saying. Nobody is pretending the democrats are innocent. That’s fucked up. Nobody is.

            There are people that realize that the current policy sucks, but the alternative is so much worse.

            That is all.

          Nope. The point was to pressure Biden to listen to his advisors and do the moral and correct and even politically popular thing and he refused.

          It’s Hexbear, the instance I have my main account on. It’s an explicitly leftist (anarchist, communist) instance that has a unique history in the lemmyverse as having started and developed for several years on its own. As a consequence it has a completely different vibe from the rest of this place. For one thing its userbase is >60% lgbt+. Check it out!
