this has to be one of my favorite comics of all time

also a Canadian. but I have nothing further to add.

so Republican, got it.

frankly, I don't know of many countries, if any, whose government isn't at odds with its population.

falls into the same category as useless "nobody:"

I'm not even sure I understand what that means. is it a diss on America for being too privileged?

these ass hats know what they are risking. they just plan for a "sorry we got caught" apology ready if needed in the hopes that they get away with it.

there are so many easy ways to refute this so I'm just going to go with: you dumb bitch.

oh great. here come all the shitty yeye ass takes

as a non American i have no party in your shit hole country.

are you incapable of thinking pragmatically? because it's pretty clear you are letting your ideals cloud your judgement, unless you actually believe Republicans will help your cause. your pathetic political system has long been about choosing the lesser of 2 evils and frankly the fact that you refuse to accept this tells me everything I need to know. enjoy living in a fascist hellscape, with all those leopards eating your face.

let's be absolutely clear here. the only argument you have is to say that Republicans will do less genocide. that's it. because in any other case your extreme ideology only causes more.

"I can't get my way so everyone should suffer" comes across as a pretty crybaby take.

which is the definition of ideological to a fault.

you're falsely equating voting dem for justifying genocide. they are not the same. one can be actively working against it and still vote blue, recognizing that any other action likely promotes genocide and more terrible things.

have you ever smoked weed? ideas are cheap - even ones that seem good. ACTUAL good ideas are only proven good when they are implemented AND become successful.

once again, you're making this into a voting issue when it isn't one because neither party is interested in taking your preferred stance. naturally, withholding a vote because of this makes no sense especially when the stakes on other important issues are so high.

I understand how strongly you feel about this issue. I agree with your feelings about it. I would love to see the Israeli govt get pulverised for what they are doing. and it is objectively atrocious in every way that they are supported.

I can also use my brain to logically determine that refusing to vote dem is likely to put power into the hands of those who will do worse both on this specific issue and many others. voting for Biden might not make it better, but doing anything else will definitely make it worse. and that's the brain dead choice.

how about refusing to acknowledge that repubs would do the same or worse with this situation? no sane person thinks the situation is great. but brain dead is making a voting issue out of this when it isn't one.

stakes are far too high to have the luxury of this brain dead take.

because that attitude only helps the objectively more horrible politicians. how is this so hard to understand?

if only wall street fines from the SEC were like this...

there is nothing relevant or acceptable about suggesting that an unhealthy person could reasonably die by being arrested. The methods of arrest are objectively fucking incorrect if they result in death for anyone generally being non violent.
