Comment by Linktank@lemmy.today on The level of debate over Gaza in the US

Participating in the system isn’t going to change anything. We’ve been voting for the “lesser of two evils” for like half a century or more and it’s gotten exactly zero results. The last time we saw real progress in the west was when there were strong, militant unions and civil rights organizations out there fighting and dying for rights.

Okay, so solution? Anybody? Just more bitching? Great contribution to the conversation.

What could this forum full of communists want? What a mystery!

Maybe they should try putting a communist on the US ballot then

New tagline when?

yes please! I second that - this is gold

PSL is a Marxist Leninist party with a candidate on the ballot in several states, but I’m sure you would just scold anyone who voted for them instead of blue fascists

Well of course, they aren’t BLUE sweaty

Least stupid liberal

The only one bitching is you, that we take a principled stance against voting for the so called “lesser evil”

What’s your solution to the fucking Holocaust that your party is committing?

You’re gonna catch a ban if you don’t chill out. It’s probably actually too late for you but I’m just gonna say for your own health you need to calm down and read and internalize what people are saying.

lmfao, I don’t care if I get banned from an echo chamber. That would literally prove me right. Banning dissenters is exactly what an echo chamber would do.

A commenter literally said I should be shot in the head, and I’m the one who should chill? That’s rich.

You’re not going to be banned for being a dissenter, you’re going to be banned for being an asshole.

I’m going to link your own comment to you. Please explain why you think this behavior wouldn’t be the reason for your ban, and it would instead be because this site is an “echo chamber”. If you don’t justify this, I will assume you are trying to get banned by purposely breaking the rules and then use that as “proof” that this is an echo chamber.

Are you, or are you not breaking the rules here?

Here’s a send-off from the heart:

I would like to take this opportunity to once more, from the bottom of my soul and viscera, to unequivocally condemn the state of isnotreal. Damn you pissrael, damn you! Terrorists and assassins!

Death to AmeriKKKa

Oh noes, not the precious marketplace of ideas

I agree with said commenter, you should absolutely be shot in the head. Several times, ideally. One less genocide supporter in the world.

another new tagline nomination dropped, lmao

Stop giving weapons to thenpe9ple who use those weapons to kill innocent people.

Wow that was pretty fucking easy. This is why we don’t take liberals seriously they’re always talking about how complex and complicated these issues are. They’re either incredibly fucking stupid if they can’t come up with that solutiin or, what’s actually happening, they’re obviously lying to our face because they realize outright supporting it is bad pr but there’s no chance they oppose it.

do you think that Donald gives any more of a fuck about these issues than Kamala?

Do you think that Harris gives any more of a fuck about these issues?

You morons are advocating for murder against people who are literally trying to choose the lesser of two evils

If anything, the lesser of two evils here is the less competent, more senile person to pilot the genocide machine.

You act as if both sides are equally evil, when one side is in fact considerably more evil. Which isn’t to say that the other isn’t evil. That’s why it’s called the LESSER of two evils.

You act as if both sides are equally evil

Dems and Reps are on the same side. You just buy into the kayfabe and pretend that they oppose each other.

when one side is in fact considerably more evil

Notably, you have been unable to present evidence for this claim.

That’s why it’s called the LESSER of two evils

If anything, the lesser of two evils when it comes to the pilots of a genocide machine is the one less competent and more senile.

Could you explain how one side is considerably more evil instead of just saying it again? (Also)

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

If you can’t plainly see, no amount of explanation is going to open your eyes. One side is purely about the enrichment of the already rich.

Biden and the dems has Trump beat on deportations, police funding, oil and NG expansion, welfare cuts, RICO prosecutions of leftist activists, media bans, wars and oh yeah fuckin GENOCIDE

If an “explanation” was “plain to see” on your end, you’d have given it, because facts hit harder than “nuh uh”…but you didn’t cause you’re a know-nothing racist with the poltical knowledge of a toddler

That’s what makes you dipshits so genuinely pathetic, you act like your an itern at some DNC consulting firm but you can’t even muster a single coherent argument on behalf of rich dems who don’t even know you exist

You should have more self-respect :)

Democrats aren’t about enrichment of the already rich? Wondrous!! I must vote for them post haste!! This must be why they’re so hard on the rich and capital and yet so kind to poor countries and the homeless!!

This is a usual defence of people who actually have no backing for their case.

What is plain to see is that you don’t actually have any evidence that supports your claim that either of the ‘sides’ (they are both on the same side - they have the same policies and they even openly finance and otherwise support each other) is ‘more evil’. Now that you are backed in a corner, you opt to attempt to save face by declaring your claim to be self-evident.

Also, I wonder what will happen when you learn that Harris has pledged to build Trump’s wall if she is elected president.

One side is currently commiting genocide and laughing about it. Is that the less evil side?

Well they promise to do the same things, so wouldn’t the lesser evil here be the incompetent senile moron?

Follow your leader, Nazi. Go down into a sewer and blow your brains out, Nazi.

It doesn’t matter if Goebbels is less evil than Hitler, they’re both Nazis upholding the same system at the end of the day

You would have supported the holocaust

You are saying that confessing to the good cop is better than confessing to the bad cop, because the bad cop is mean. But in the end things wouldn’t different at all.

Blablabla

Hitlerite

Follow your leader
