No, I’m sorry, I just don’t think Kamala is making Gaza the number one issue, which is why I think the only reasonable choice is to either not vote, or vote Stein.

edit: I cannot believe I have to add /s

Literally every fucking election they pull this same shit, and every fucking election WE FALL FOR IT LIKE MORONS!!!

The morons on the other side fall for “Trump is obviously a good Christian!”, but we fall for this which is almost as transparent as “Hey, look over there!”

Not saying you are either a Russian or just a fucking idiot, but in my opinion someone that holds this view point, is either a Russian, or a fucking idiot. I repeat, this is not towards you, it is towards the Russians and fucking idiots that hold this view point.

Sorry to piss on your parade but… Uh… Your attitude (the one behind the sarcasm) is the reason democrats lost this. That aside, at this point it’s probably less about Gaza and more about Harris campaigning with the brainpower of a 5 YO. Like if Trump is winning this badly then yeah it was hopeless to begin with.

Yup, my attitude is exactly why.

Not the endless screaming voices of ‘BoTh SiDeS!!!’ and voting for anybody but stein is a vote for genocide, it was all me.

Mwa ha ha, my evil plan has been successful, and I’ve finally enslaved the world’s greatest superpower to a elderly rapist in a diaper!!!

Fucking stupid children, I swear.

“We have the Palestinians and we have everybody else rioting all over the place. You talk about Charlottesville. This is one hundred times Charlottesville,” Trump said during a presidential debate in July, equating pro-Palestinian activism with a 2017 attack by White supremacists in Virginia.

I hope you enjoyed your high horse. Because this might be the last Palestine protest you can effectively make.

That’s literally my point, the “muh protest vote!” is the kind of shit that always makes things worse. Republicans don’t protest vote, they voted for a rapist felon.

I highly doubt that most people even considered Gaza issue when deciding who they vote for. It’s mostly lemmy/farleft thing.

Do you guys seriously believe everything would be fine if he didn’t win?

The world was as fucked yesterday as it is today. You just didn’t see it on the news. Does it matter if the civilization ends a week earlier?

Of course not, and nobody is saying that. But it would be better. Harm reduction is good even though we can’t actually ever fix the world.

Does it matter if the civilization ends a week earlier?

Um, yes? It’s safe to say that both you and I will die some day. I’d rather that be in 100 years versus tomorrow.

We fear it will be a decade or more earlier. We fear the difference between my children having a habitable environment and my children having to deal with ever increasing climate disasters. We fear losing human rights, consumer protection, any semblance of a safety net. We fear increasing polarity in what is already an untenable situation. We fear descending into chaos and tyranny, and taking parts of the world with us.

The most annoying thing over the next few years is going to be listening to:

“What happened to my helthcare?” "You voted for Trump who promised to take it away. " “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

“Why are the prices of groceries so high?” “You voted for Trump who promised to deport all the illegal farm workers who picked your food for low wages.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

“Why did my daughter/wife/girlfriend/mother die in a hospital parking lot?” “You voted for Trump who promised to make life saving healthcare for women illegal nation wide.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

“What happened to the minimum wage?” “You voted for Trump who promised to lower it.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

“What happened to the Palestinians?” “You voted for Trump/voted for a third party candidate which allowed Trump to rise to power then he gave Netanyahu the go ahead to wipe them out.” “But I didn’t think that would happen to my family!”

Suck it up. This is your bed. You shat it in. Now lie there and be quiet. We’re tired of your bullshit.

I wonder if it’s the US or Taiwan that donates the thermite grenades on the machines? If it’s the US Trump might just order them not to donate them as a gift to Xi.

I think so, iirc South Korea, Japan and a few european nations are considered functionally nuclear capable in that they have all the material, fascilities and scientific knowledge to assemble nukes in a very short timeframe should it become desirable.
