What lack of material analysis does to a mf

This isn't a war between Muslims and Jews over religion, and to dismiss it as that is asinine. This is a settler-colonial genocide with remarkable parallels to the US's genocide against First Nations in the 17 and 1800s

Both sides brainrot detected

wants revenge and is willing to kill people just to satisfy that

Revenge is good and it is the right of colonized peoples to seek revenge for the atrocities the colonizers inflicted upon them.

Are we really going to Marxist critique a damn kids show for not killing the bad guy?

Sure, because we can have better stories. Iron Widow is a Young Adult novel that's about fighting systemic oppression by brutally killing the bad guys.

Disclaimer I did enjoy Avatar quite a bit and that's why the flaws rankle me so much. There's a lot about it that's good. I just wish it had committed harder to supporting revolutionary liberation then undermining its own framing by libbing it up.

That commenter is from Hexbear. There's no way they support Trump.

Which one? The Democratic Party has been supporting genocide. It's well past time we recognized that the Democratic Party and the Republican Party are both fascist and reject them accordingly.

This is the right answer. I'll write her in too

Yeah the political theater is just that-- theater. Aside from occasionally checking in to laugh/sob at how awful it all is, I'll be devoting my energy to things that actually matter.

As for voting, I guess if something local pops up worth voting for I'll vote in that. Nationally, the Democratic Party has shown its enthusiastic support for fascism and genocide so there's nobody I can vote for except maybe Cornell West or whoever the Greens or the PSL run. The one thing I know is, I won't vote for Biden or anyone like him. Arab and Muslim Americans are calling for a boycott of Biden, and it would be like breaking a picket line to vote for him, only 1000x worse becauase instead of exploitative work conditions it's literal genocide.

There's no comparison. Bush has a much higher body count and was a more effective imperialistic mass-murderer. He certainly did his part to empower fanatics -- the wAr oN tErROr got all those racist bloodthirsty chuds baying for blood. As for eroding the facade of democracy, I don't know what you can call stealing the 2000 election and then ramming through unpopular wars other than proof that America has never been a democracy.

Bush did immense permanent damage -- the millions dead by his policies and the aftershocks will never come back to life.

Trump just rode the wave.

People who think Trump was as bad or worse than Bush are just telling on themselves that they don't think nonwhite people living outside the imperial core are fully human.
