Wow this thread is a straight condemnation of Lemmy's high-horse. It's wild that the comment above yours is neutralized on votes and yours is so far in the negative. What did you do that was so worthy of condemnation? Express concern for another human being's family.
Of course, people here will tell you that billionaires discount lives on daily even while they discount the lives of the loved ones of this woman. Were all of them billionaires? Perhaps. Regardless of the size of their pockets we do know that they are human.
Folks that lean left generally understand what it's like to be caught in the circumstances of your birth. It's incredibly telling that this self-same group finds it so easy to dismiss the value of this human life and those around her.
You're right to be concerned for the well-being of others, and I believe I'm right to be concerned about the company we're keeping here. It's seemingly a group of people that will dismiss the death of someone wealthy, even while they assume the wealthy will dismiss the death of the poor. I wouldn't say it's entirely incorrect even though it's just as morally bankrupt.
This nonsense is replete here on Lemmy. These purity-test "liberals" are the snake eating its tail and it is more than gratifying to see a strong ally like AOC call this bullshit out. These reprobates do nothing for the Palestinian cause outside of stroking their own lazy egos.
Such liars are in my recent post history and I find myself gladly swatting them down; surely they will defend these selfsame tactics right here where they are laid bare...
Wow! You really are operating in the same fashion in both spaces. You might not care about intellectual dishonesty throughout someone's post history, but I find it incredibly illuminating.
Nuance is lost here as it's possible to both support Biden and decry what is happening in Palestine. You'll notice no one here is in favor of genocide though the poster above is correct about people in left spaces loving to tar others with this word as well as other slanders. I suspect they have little concern about how far it carries whatever message they're trying to tote and is merely a symptom of being unable to argue an actual point.
Also, the country is largely centrist regardless of how many of us would like to believe the average person hews left. If you think I'm a centrist, you've got a rude awakening ahead.
When I clarify a distinction without a difference and you bring ad-hominem to retort, I have little concern about your thoughts regarding who is behaving sanctimoniously.
You suspect Biden can do things that are politically untenable I suspect you support Trump and are just slinging shit against the wall. Perhaps we're both wrong.
So noble to warn us while advising we ignore the evidence of our ears from just yesterday. I know where Biden stands with respect to women's rights and seeing you twist that position says everything it needs to. That you go on to think the president can pull all the levers of government by fiat is unsurprising and seems almost a feature here with the regularity that it is regurgitated.
Anti-Biden to a degree with which one is compelled to lie or pro-trump is a distinction without a difference by my lights.
Seeing such pro-Trump rhetoric from this account in just about every Biden post while fibbing about his administration's stance on, say, abortion is really laying the agenda bare. One thinks such a troll would be a touch more subtle.
Just got done watching as much of this as I could stomach and completely understand why folks from all political stripes are coming together to ask, “why?”
I do appreciate the tacit admission of his policy targets.
Alas, even though you now claim to understand Biden's hands are legislatively tied, he has since become unserious.
You really are doing some work moving that target.
