  • But blowing up babies and hospitals isn't so bad I guess... It's funny what it takes to incite a "strongly worded statement" which will lead to fuck all.

  • Ok, I giggled.

  • Never again (as long as they're white European stock or Jewish ) should be the new slogan.

  • In an ideal world yes, but we're talking about an extremist government that has some of the world's heaviest weapons as well as nukes. And given their decades long bleating like sheep about how they're the victims they will no doubt burn the world before that happens.

    I'd love nothing more than to have a court order the two populations to swap places, to see how they like living in an open air prison. I mentioned sanctions because they are the only realistic option at the moment.

  • I hope one day soon the west will wake up from their collective guilt and hold these bastards accountable. I can't see it happening in my lifetime, but one can hope.

    Condemnation and bullshit UN resolutions that keep getting vetoed mean nothing. Countries need to start sanctioning Israel with or without American approval.

  • Look at the French, at the Serbians, they shut down the country. The protests have to be disruptive by nature otherwise you're not really achieving anything, they're still spewing out executive orders and going against everything the legal framework and safeguards you're supposed to have stand for. That means not waiting for the weekend, but shutting down main streets during the week. Civil disobedience across the entire country to cripple it.

    The problem I see unfortunately is apathy, 33% actively want this administration, 33% would rather hide in the basement and hope for the best, and I'm not sure the other 33% have the stomach for it. Trump and his handlers would love nothing more than mass protests to declare an emergency. The question is, do you have the stomach for a fight, or hope that somehow there maybe future elections.

    Sorry for the rant! But this is a leftist outsiders perspective.

  • To my American brothers and sisters here. You need to stop being nice, you need to stop waiting for an imaginary red line to be crossed before you take mass action. That red line passed a long time ago. I am someone from a country with a history of violence, and if you don't act now your options will end up being violence or a techno fascist state. Cripple the country, general strikes, mass protests! . I genuinely hope I don't come across as condescending, I've protested in vain countless times in my country, to no avail. But you have the numbers!.

    Sincerely a concerned friend of the real America.

  • At this point the administration might as well send out the Proud Boys and KKK and just start clubbing people to death. Decimating the CDC, the brain worm actively waging a war on vaccines, defunding essential programs... It's insane.

  • As weird as this whole topic is, I too want to know the boo equivalent now.

  • That’s why. AIPAC Exactly, but the American Evangelicals need a shoutout here as well, their unwavering support for Israel to bring about the rapture is also a massive factor.

  • A reprieve is at least a chance to try bring about change. Funny how the orange toddler put a spanner in the works for your maga wannabe. I hope you guys keep up the pressure and make sure none of those fascists get a foot hold and destroy Canada.

  • I don’t know where you’re located @Grumpyleb@lemmus.org, but I advise that everyone on earth is more connected to the resistance and danger of fascism even if they think they’re away from it. Learn some songs, make some soup.

    I'm originally Lebanese, grewup in the UK due to civil war / Israeli invasion in the late 70's early 80's. I've always been fascinated with politics and history, I cannot (or rather I can, but it shocks me) understand how seemingly quickly America has regressed into fascism. The silent majority is going to destroy what little freedoms remain. As you said, this will reverberate around the world and we have seen a shift to the right across Europe in the past several years. The one saving grace with this Trump administration is their actions have reversed the political climate in Canada and Australia and hopefully it will spread.

    The billionaire class are the biggest threat to the entire world and I feel Americans are not doing nearly enough to stop Trump, Musk, Theil et al. The left should be shutting down the country!

    I do my best in raising awareness wherever I am, good luck to you all!

  • I genuinely feel bad for normal empathetic Americans who just want to live and let live, those fascists in power need to be not only removed, but made to pay for their destruction of your branches of government,

  • Totally agree, we also have the Evangelicals to thank.

  • unclear whether the United States and Israel coordinated the timing and whether the U.S. administration gave the green light for an operation

    I don't think Israel is waiting on any green light to commit more murders. Pure genocidal ethnic cleansing.

  • Honestly I understand what you mean, for me it was the opposite, my family and close friends had been telling me about my abuse for decades. So when I finally admitted I owned the word Alcoholic. I'm a happily recovering one. Good on you for managing!
