If only there was something the Biden administration could do…

Seriously though, Biden has an authoritarian and racist streak and always has. He has an entire career full of “gaffes” that were always just flat out racist remarks, and his response to defund and reallocate was to increase police funding for more brutality. That guy HATES…

Creating israel in that region was a collosal mistake. It should have been made in someplace uninhabited, like a jungle somewhere, or Siberia, or the desert in the middle of Australia. They should be relocated.

Rules and laws are to keep those terrible peasants in line, not to apply to the ruling class.

protesting against zionist violence and land theft has all but been outlawed.

But if this was two months ago, I’d agree with that. Thats why I was hoping more people would sign onto the uncommitted movement when we had a chance to let biden/harris know that supporting genocide wasnt going to be permitted by the voters.

Really USA, how does anyone pretend this is OK?

We pretend a LOT of things are OK.

  • School shootings comes to mind.
  • laws around what women can do with their own bodies.
  • Sacrifice of the environment for industry, all in the name of “jobs”.
  • Starvation.
  • Politicians and presidents doing obviously illegal stuff and citizens unable to do anything about it.
  • American military killing with abandon all over the world.
  • Police brutality and systematic violations of our rights, with little to no accountability.
  • Our standards for clean food being less than everyone elses.
  • Religious supremacy being tolerated, even encouraged. (Fuck your moments of silence, fuck your thoughts and prayers, fuck your pledges of allegience too while we’re at it)
  • controlled media.
  • Book banning.
  • the “war” on drugs when other methods would have been much more effective.
  • whistleblower protections dismantled.
  • violence against protesters, and the existence of “protest zones” which disallows protests entirely in most areas.
  • continual threats of violence and domestic terrorism by the political right, never with any accountability.
  • oppression of anyone who says they are anti-fascist (antifa).
  • a political system complteely captured by bribery and foreign interests, with ~1% correlation to what citizens want. There is no representation in “representitive democracy” here. Its all a big joke. We’re barely even a “republic” anymore.

And its not all republicans doing it-- although much more them than the dems-- although the dems are sliding really far rightward pretty quickly and its hard to see how it ever will be allowed to go back left.

“Israel has also historically been permitted to use a portion of its FMF aid to buy equipment from Israeli defense firms—a benefit not granted to other recipients of U.S. military aid”

Disagree. Americans are too comfortable to do much of anything for themselves. The rise of centrism is basically being OK with whatever, and calling that clever.
