Biden/Harris trying everything they could to circumvent the blockade to get supplies into Gaza
Except applying diplomatic pressure, Except taking military assets and delivering the supplies (besides the stupid symbolic airdrops that didn't even come close to meeting requirements and killed a bunch of people). Except stopping arming, or even threatening to stop arming, the military that was blocking those supplies - in contravention of international and US law. Except Antony Blinken literally falsifying reports to Congress about "Israel" blocking supplies, because that would legally implicate the Biden administration for continuing to arm them.
Trump literally saying he wants to expel
"Saying". That's the problem with you. All you hear is words. You don't read bills. You don't look at arms shipments. You don't read the history. You look at headlines.
What did i just say?
"This genocide started under Biden, with his support, and is continuing under Trump, with his support."
They absolutely obliterated Gaza with Biden-supplied bombs while he sat there with his hands over his eyes going, "I don't see anything wrong!" And then after two weeks in office, Trump goes, "oh my god, it's totally destroyed! We'd better ethnically cleanse them." while literally sitting next to Netanyahu. And in your brilliant brain, you don't see the plan at work here.
If it wasn’t abundantly obvious to the rest of ya’ll before, these soapbox “never genocide” bad actors never gave a single shit about what happens Palestinians.
You are the one laughing in a message about their genocide. Look at my message. Do I sound like I'm fucking laughing?
Remember when Bush pushed the "No Child Left Behind Act", and we all realized the federalization of control over education was deeply problematic and removed democratic control over education? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
The government not handling every social function in society isn't scary on its own. That in combination with the people as a whole having no control over the economy is when that becomes nasty (i.e., economic inequality). That is of course the vision of the ruling class.
Yes, because you were all voting for politicians who were complicit in that genocide. Then the election happened, and the quasi-ceasefire (really, relocation of hostilities to the West Bank, until they almost inevitably resume in Gaza again) happened. And you're all still clinging to the "it was a spoiler designed to cost Dems the election" and yet you're still completely failing to ask the absolutely fundamental question of why the Democrat politicians would rather give up an election than give up being complicit in genocide.
The sheer fact that you write "genocide" in the "I'm an idiot" up-and-down caps, by the way. It meets the legal definition of genocide. It means the intent of laws authored against genocide. It meets the structural characteristics of past genocides. You have to be a truly sick person to trivialize it like that. It's really striking how much trivializing the genocide like that goes hand-in-hand with blaming its critics for the Democrat's loss - it's always the same people doing both. Are we not living in the same planet, where genocide is literally the worst crime imaginable, besides causing the extinction of the entire human race or all life of Earth? Does a politician's complicity in genocide not completely discredit everything they say or do as a facade to gain power and wealth? Does it not reveal an absolute deception that's fundamental to our entire social system? Be honest, have you even thought about those questions?
You guys really want to shift the agenda to something else, but I'm going to describe this exactly as it is. This system is fucked and completely captive, Ds and Rs both. Whoever you think is to blame - at the end of the day, it's not even relevant, because we need complete systemic change. The fact that both parties were near-unanimously complicit in a genocide and the genocidal incitement mythology around it should have been an absolute clarion call to the public for absolute rejection of the people in power. But instead you're all still dicking around playing partisan politics, downplaying that genocide, and trying to relocate the blame for the crumbling society to the general public. The problem here is that we live in a deeply fascist, totalitarian system, at the heart of a global military empire. The mass murder our politicians - across the aisle - commit abroad is a reflection of the inherent immorality and exploitation inherent in this system. Now they've put the "bad cops" back in power after the "good cops" absolutely threw the election, and guess what, it's the "we're tightening our belts, abolishing a bunch of civil rights, and making this even more of a police state" routine again. Not just confined to the last...two weeks under Trump's rule, but oh-so-coincidentally, the same totalitarian police state shit that was already completely rearing its head under George W. Bush and Obama. There was not some sudden shift to fascism in the last two weeks. We've been under it. They've been hammering it in bit by bit our entire lives. This is an objective truth - between the NSA mass surveillance, the PATRIOT Act, FISA surveillance, CIA black sites, targeted assassinations of U.S. citizens, everything. None of this is new. So revise your explanation of this society, because it's not correct.
That it's "our" government, not "their" government. This has been at best an aristocratic and at worst a totalitarian government for the entirety of U.S. history. Where was this democratic control during the Biden administration, when overwhelming resistance couldn't influence them to stop a genocide? Where was the democratic control during the Obama administration, when we couldn't stop unconstitutional PATRIOT Act enforcement, or end the Iraq or Afghanistan wars, but rather, witnessed a continual expansion of the Middle Eastern invasions/military theater into other countries like Libya and Somalia?
Putin is behind the Trump presidency, not the same American oligarchy behind every single presidency. Please provide real proof of this. I have yet to see any. Something a hell of a lot more concrete than a "he said she said" or "funding for ads or bots came from Russia." It's my working theory that the "blame everything on Russia" is a propaganda line used to insulate Democrats from ideas that contradict their worldview.
Assumption of a nefarious scheme to change the nature of the federal government, or institute a "takeover", versus the facade of one in a situation where it's already been taken over. Again, I think I phrased this same question to you yesterday - explain the consensus in SUPPORT of the Palestinian genocide. How does both the openly fascist party, and the so-called "opposition", SUPPORT that? Not asking you to justify it, or defend it, or say "tough shit those are our choices" - I want an explanation. How does something so insanely evil become a bipartisan political consensus, in the absence of central management? See point 1. My working theory is that this pretense is simply being used to expand control of the state over the individual while promoting the partisan D vs. R narrative.
That's really nice for you that you don't view the people committing genocide as fascists. However, that's why I completely discount your political takes.
Last winter/spring. The one Kamala didn't win, because Biden was the one running.
