You’re willing to trade a maybe for a surely.

America is currently “surely” assisting in a genocide. Hope this helps!

America JUST exited a decades long war where the only results were death and destruction.

If you think the oligarchs in America are the people up for a vote, you’re completing misunderstanding what you’re being told right now.

I have not doomed anyone. The current administration has doomed hundreds of thousands, potentially millions of Palestinians.

Do you even hear yourself?

Based on how liberals have accepted genocide as necessary at this point, the “fascism later” option seems more likely to make people comfortable with fascism, rather than buying us time to resist.

Dooming Palestinians for your own benefit is callous, not principled you stupid fucking dweeb.

It qualifies as a war crime but not as genocide.

Okay… if its a war crime and not a genocide, that still qualifies as a way to stop sending weapons.

They are, legally speaking allowed to close any port of entry or exit from their country.

Huh wonder if maybe Palestine should be legally recognized as a country to prevent this? Oh well, nothing we can do, since the politicians in power don’t want to do that.

But I don’t think that it can be proven especially seeing as the official government statistics coming out of gaza are provided by a group that is internationally recognised as a terrorist organisation.

Every organization operating out of Gaza would get called a terrorist organization by Isreal. It is almost as if America is being intentionally obtuse to allow Isreal to carry out a genocide.

Oh nice never heard of them, though I’m guessing I’ve heard them in passing before. Love me some post punk

The thing that keeps their job more than voters is donors. Hope this helps!

Waiting several election cycles to end a genocide is insane and there is no world in which that is the moral, ethical, or logical path forward. Hope this helps!

I’ve been causing myself psychic damage lately by arguing with these people in lemmy.ml threads. I should stop for my own good, but I like to think the psychic damage goes both ways at least.

The only time pressure can be applied is before they have your vote. Hope this helps!

Do you even hear yourself?

Yeah, for instance: funding a genocide, xenophobic immigration policy, building the wall, dropping the ball on covid right before delta/omicron, a lack of healthcare reform, the inability to protect abortion rights, being a cop, denigrating anti-genocide protestors, racially profiling Muslims at your events

The no genocide option is to protest against the current regime instead of vote shaming people who probably don’t even live in a single swing state (where your candidate brought Liz Fucking Cheney btw).

Downtown Boys is a punk band that has a record called “Full Communism”

Complete aside, but I have a hard time taking anyone seriously when that generic corporate carpet is in the photo.

Also, I can’t take them seriously for everything else in the photo either.

You let your mask slip by calling opposing genocide “virtue signalling”. You’re a bad person and a bad advocate for the democrats.

holy shit they’re actually doing the 99% hitler meme now, this country is cooked
