'if if if' nevermind what is and has been happening... a party should lose support for genocide, especially when that side is ostensibly for social justice.

reddit is promoting divisive conservative rhetoric? that could just be conservatives being conservatives. this is a moment of strength for them and their cause. they could be rallying in awe of what is taking place-- you don't have to like it but maybe stop trying to push everything you don't like or agree with out of every corner of the internet and learn to promote your own rhetoric better. it probably didn't occur to you that they (conservatives) do make up a large percentage of the population of this country.

and that's my prerogative as a voter. are you here to shame me some more? about the genocide i won't overlook to vote for kamala harris? the same kamala harris who reversed her position on fracking? who wanted to fund nato even harder? you're gonna tell me she represented a positive position on climate change?? and bath-tub of collard green kamala harris is not doing a damn thing for civil rights, so where are you coming from with this?

i think you're too kind on the establishment democrats.. what is distasteful is their absolute refusal to represent anyone but their donors.. biden wouldn't step down until it was 'too late' to have a meaningful democratic process so we got de facto kamala appointment.. what kind of party is this? she did not even win her own home state when she actually was involved in a presidential primary. the democrats are terrible and deserved to lose. one could be forgiven for assuming they wanted to lose.

it is safe because i didn't allow myself to reduce supporting genocide to a trolley problem.

and sometimes you have a conscience that doesn't allow you to rationalize away complicity in genocide

i don't think he's much much much much worse, that's too many muchs- maaaybe much much worse- and that's neither here or there.. genocide IS a reasonable red line and you can't gaslight me off my solid footing in that regard.

axis of evil and has been. you vote democrat, you vote republican, you vote for genocide. simple as.

i can see them as a funny inversion as well, for instance: you can't accuse mtg of faking her passion, crazy as it can get.. aoc on the other hand is not convincing to me.. maybe she can change my mind, but she was disappointingly late to speak up about the biden backed genocide and seems to be more of a token mouthpiece for a constituency that the democrats (at large) are distancing themselves from.

what i am referring to as typical is the assumption that criticizing x puts you in y camp.

typical reaction

burnt out on aoc's lipservice and inefficacy..

they (campaign insiders) knew they were losing the whole time. they knew they could've changed a few policies and handily won.. they knew... if they act surprised, just know that its an act.

i can still allow for them to be misinformed and or differently oriented- so not necessarily evil. as for fucking them over, i don't care so much about that directly- i have more modest ambitions. i want people to see how often there's a great big elephant in the room that you're really 'not supposed to' talk about. eating 20 downvotes for an innocuous comment is revelatory

musk is a piece of shit but why is this investigation in USAID's purview?

wrong thread/

sorry in advance for the strays you'll catch for saying as much.. yeah, its heavily brigaded/astroturfed just about everywhere you go, nowadays. we're to believe this is the common sentiment because by god, look at how many downvotes they can muster... i'm ambivalent, the truth isn't something they can bully out of my hands

this of course after using ai to ban 2.3 million 'security threat' aps.

you still talk to democrats, curious.

tulsi is a flawed human being, we all are- but she is not a double agent for russia. there, i said it, downvotes please.
