Yeah I'm a bit lost on why someone's instance automatically = their entire identity. Wouldn't that means 1) technically we are all tankies on a tankie platform and 2) I need to start learning Finnish?

I still get Beehaw posts on my instance too. They're nice people.

Good. He's directly the reason my old WoW Guild went to shit. Lost two people I admired to gamergate. I hate that man on a personal level.

Not even reveal they're ultra-progressive*, just sign progressive policy into law, while going, "Huh? What?? I didn't do that, you're imagining things!"

You know, like how conservatives openly deny reality nowadays.

Edit: my autocorrect changed "ultra-progressive" to "ultra-conservative". Chat, has my phone been hacked by the deep state?

I love Crypt of the Necrodancer, I had no idea there was a sequel. I'm so excited!!

THATS SO CUTE UGGHHH

Amazing take, no notes. I've done my due diligence, I've voted, I've canvassed for campaigns, I've donated to the right people.

I will NOT be debating with fascists or agitators while my friends and family members get taken away for being trans or the wrong shade of brown (or a Linux user lol). Someone in a more privileged position than me can.

I used that time to get my carry license instead.

There's a spoon-sized amount of microplastic in our brains, ofc we are

Now respond to the rest of my comment. You didn't even read it, did you.

No. I'm done. I've just realized that the Palestinian genocide to people like you is nothing but a thought experiment. I refuse to engage with someone who uses the actual plight of the Palestinians as a gotcha against Americans while not even participating in the political systems here.

Focus on your own country, because unless you're from South Africa, you probably have a non-zero number of politicians who support Israel as well. This is not a fucking spectator sport.

Actually, I just read one of your other comments, and you know what's extra bullshit? The fact that you're telling people you're not even American, but you're still trying to justify why people shouldn't have voted for Harris.

Under previous administrations, Palestinians in the United States were able to claim refugee status for their relatives and get them out of Gaza.

Now, that's gone.

The news cycle were able to report on everything going on in Gaza, and have people paying attention to the actual atrocities happening (never mind what's happening in Sudan and Congo).

Now, Trump and Elon dominate the news cycle.

So many people were willing to donate to Gofundme's for the people in Gaza to help them cross the border to Jordan/Egypt, or have enough money to at least buy food/shelter/medical treatment and survive until the ceasefire.

Now, people are losing their jobs or in such economic uncertainty DUE TO THE DIRECT ACTIONS OF THE TRUMP ADMIN there is no extra money for mutual aid.

The fact that your idealogical purity stance FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY has destroyed so much of the mutual aid mechanism surrounding Gaza and you don't even realize it is the most tragic part. I do digital infrastructure work pro bono for an organization that helps Doctors Without Borders, and guess what? The employees there have been furloughed due to the USAID freeze.

So yeah, Kamala and DonElon...totally the same fucking thing, right?

Now tell me - keeping that state of mind and empathy - what fucking difference does it make that Kamala "vocally supported an end to the war"? Can you tell me right now - concretely and materialistically, no vague bullshit - how things were/would be better for Palestinians under the Dems? I've asked this question so many times and have never gotten an answer that wasn't just vague abstract BS like "but Trump said".

This is the easiest lob you could give me. It's because HISTORICALLY it has been easier to get organized and get Dems to change their minds than it will ever be under Trump. His son-in-law Jared Kushner has been openly talking about beach front property in Gaza over the last year and courting land development deals.

If you think Kamala Harris would have gone on the news with Netenyahu and said she was going to use the AMERICAN MILITARY TO TAKE GAZA, you are actually out of your mind. Once again, I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S POSITION. I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE DOING RIGHT BY THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. But we were already seeing movement regarding limiting arms and funds to Israel, and Biden's ceasefire. The public backlash was actually gaining momentum into the House. We were seeing congress people speaking out against Netenyahu and the Biden administration getting both internal and external pressure for a pause in arms.

And then, boom, Trump elected.

There is actually no hope for a free Palestine under Trump and a Republican House and Congress. They don't care about optics, they don't care about international relations, they will use all the military and money they have to make sure that Israel becomes the "holy land" they need for their Christofascist rapture.

I agree with you. To anyone who still pretends Trump and Kamala were equally terrible with regard to Palestine: Kamala vocally supported an end to the war* and a two-state solution**, a prevailing US diplomatic philosophy. Please watch what Trump said tonight— it is so much worse than that. He advocates for the full removal of Palestinian people from their homeland. 

*it is a genocide and not a war, I disagree with her. 

**a two-state solution is not adequate as long as Israel continues to act as it does currently. Free Palestine. I disagree with her.

They used up all their energy and resources on the 500 times they tried to murk Castro, they got no juice left.

I know two federal workers that were planning to retire during the Trump administration, but are staying because of this shitshow. One of them even cited he saw how the "buyouts" at Twitter went under Elon and, "I ain't falling for that shit he's pulling."

They're all pretty scared and anxious though, I feel awful for them. The treasury workers especially.
