It's a distinction without much of a practical difference, yes, but I still think that not considering atrocities a deal breaker and being in favor of the atrocities should be distinguished between.

Can't argue as effectively against a wrong conclusion if you don't know the reasons for reaching it, is my point.

And yeah, you're right about them already blaming everyone to the left of Reagan for the pro-Cheney campaign failing to defeat a personally repulsive fascist idiot 🤦

I completely agree. Just pointing out the technical difference between pro-zionism and harassing/othering anti-zionists for reasons only indirectly related 😉

😘👌

Not really, only the ones who say that you should withhold support from all Democrats in a binary election system. And anyone who says anything that can possibly be interpreted as such. And quite a few where they have to invent the nonsupport out of whole cloth.

It's not so much that they're Zionists, it's more that many of them are pro-Dem to the point where any dissent against any Dems, especially the leaders, gets the same ferocious reactions as when you criticize the Mango Mussolini amongst his fascist cult.

Or to put it another way: apart from understandable election pragmatism, there's a lot of people there who cares more about pretending that their "team" is perfect than about holding the people supposed to represent them accountable for participating in countless crimes against humanity.

Nope. Even on !politics@lemmy.world, the most Neoliberal community on the most Neoliberal instance on Lemmy, pro-zionist comments are few and heavily downvoted, as they should be.

Absolutely. And also banking on both Americans and non-Americans to be unaware of the extreme pro-zionist, pro-cop, and pro-establishment bias of the NYT as well as the lies they keep spreading as a result.

You think zionism is extremely popular on Lemmy?? What the fuck have you been smoking?!

I honestly don't understand

Could have just stopped there tbh.

From what I've seen, it is pretty accurate

It's not. It's the hobby of a right wing Zionist masquerading as a neutral and authorative arbiter of facts and bias.

For example, it rates The Guardian, Fox News and Breitbart as equally factual.

Is it that people see the comment count go up and expect a human comment to interact with, only to be disappointed and then downvote the bot?

That too, yes. Personally I have it blocked and get annoyed by there being no comments in stead.

If so, I'd suggest Lemmy/Mbin to not could comments made by bot accounts towards the total comment count.

Or just get rid of the biased and counterfactual bias and fact checker.

There's so many things I want to say/shout right now, but I just can't. I'm too fucking pissed off at the fascists and the people who lost to them by insisting on using the 1992 playbook one last time to adequately express it all 🤬

Wearing a full suit of armor, accomplishing either IS quite the quest 😄

And Newt Gingrich

I dunno, I think I prefer the original version of this scene from Naked Gun..

after you play some hours, you will believe it was definitely built by beavers

The Hoover Dam or the game?

Hoover was a very large and talented beaver.

Yet more proof supporting Eddie Izzard's hypothesis that God wasn't done creating animals when he smoked all the opium "just to test the first batch" 😁

Is Groot at least dancing to ELO and riding space rats? Because if so, I might manage this:

Not when both choices keep gradually drifting towards more evil. The current Dem leadership is to the right of Reagan and trying to rehabilitate one of the worst war criminals and -profiteers in the history of the world and his ideologically identical daughter.

Fair. Still not available in my particular part of Europe, though.

Here in Denmark we have so many domestic variants of yoghurt (big dairy producer per capita) that most grocery stores simply don't have room for/incentive to offer any imported ones, except for Greek yoghurt for the purists 😄

In fact, there's a great Scandinavia and the World comic about how much we love yoghurt 😁
