He earned the Genocide Joe tag at this point. Hes got nothing to lose but still insists the genocide continues without the least bit of resistance.
but after the election the Democrats are going to be anti genocide. They can't be progressive until after the election because of AIPAC. once the election is over, they're going to do a complete 180 mark my words
Don’t worry, Trump will be so much better for this entire situation. Let’s revisit your comment in 2025 and see if you’re calling out Trump for this as well.
Yes I'm clearly very pro Trump. The American political binary has made complete brainrotten fools of you all
Centrists believe anyone to their left a trump supporter and anyone to their right is just itching to vote for Democrats.
Clown country.
What in God's name are you on? How on earth is criticizing members of the democratic party in any way considered to be support of Trump?? You guys are really taking the term "partisanship" to heart. I'm entirely convinced you'd petulantly support anyone if they were a part of the Democrat establishment. The way you come out of the woodwork to spout off this kind of deranged nonsense, it almost sounds like you WANT the genocide in Gaza to worsen. Like if it didn't, you'd be deprived of the opportunity to pompously rub someone's nose in it.
Have you no principles? Have you no morality? Are you a doomerist or a pessimist or what? If you have nothing worthwhile to add to political dialog other than "criticizing Joe Biden for literally protecting genociders from international prosecution and also continuously arming them is exactly the same thing as supporting Donald Trump" then maybe turn off your phone and go back to plugging your ears and closing your eyes. Your liberal friends are all waiting for you.
"Don't call us Blue MAGA! We just think if you critize the dear leader ~~Putin, Xi, Trump~~ Biden/Harris, you hate America and are the other party and programmed by Russia with ChatGPT!"
I wish! ChatGPT can write way better then I can.
They do. What do you think "blue no matter who" means?
Let’s just see what happens to all these loud voices criticizing Biden once Trump takes office. My guess is magically they’ll stay silent or somehow still blame the left for what’s happening.
Supporting Trump or not, this mindset is one of the factors that helped Trump get elected again. Protest votes are the stupidest thing anyone could have done in this election, and to anyone who did so, you absolutely helped Trump get elected.
Go ahead and delude yourself into thinking that there was any other choice in this election, but the reality is that both sides support Israel, only one side will take it to an absolute extreme.
It’s absolutely heartbreaking what is happening in Gaza, but that is just one of the issues that were on the field this election and the country blew it.
Have you no sense of how things actually work in the world? Are you living in a dream state?
Not voting for Harris this election was exactly the same thing as supporting Trump in terms of actual effects.
Three things.
Democratic party is not "the left". They are neoliberal conservatives who support American capitalism and imperialism. There are socialist factions in the democratic party, but they are small and have no actual power in the party.
No one said anything about not voting for Harris. You are having an argument with ghosts you've invented in your rotting skull.
"It's awful what is happening in Gaza" What is happening is the Palestinian genocide. What's happening is ethnic cleansing. What's happening is the mass murder of children. What's happening is the Israeli state and the IDF colonizing Gaza and the West bank. They are committing crimes against humanity with American guns and money. It's already at the utmost extreme. They are shooting children in the back of the head en mass. IF YOU ARE ANTI-GENOCIDE STOP PRETENDING ITS ANYTHING ELSE.
You are a conservative. You are the exact type of person that supports token progressive politics while women lose rights across the board and the DNC does nothing to stop it when they absolutely could. Same with trans rights. Same with black rights.
You are not the left. You never have been the left. If you disagree with genocide then you should be denouncing it with us, not playing interference tactics for genociders and genocide supporters. The election is over. The DNC failed. Get over it. Accept it. It's done. Time to address the many problems that got us here.
clap clap clap
Fuck all these neoliberal racist fucks. Thank god people like you and others are conscious enough to see this and to keep talking about it.
Your comment needs to be saved 100 times over
Thank you! God it's so annoying that liberals act like this then wonder why no one likes them.
I've had MLs more tolerable than the most smug liberal.
This is exactly right.
Oh great. First it was we'd shut up after Biden was replaced. Then it was election day. And now it's Trump taking office?
Just get off it already.
Moving the goalposts is how they justify running such a shit candidate that loved shooting herself in the foot with the silver bullets she should have aimed at Trump and his campaign. And not missed.
You are completely unhinged.
"You can push Biden to the left once we win!"
"Murder is bad? Defend Ukraine, not Israel?"
"WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA?!"
Yeah, actually it could have been easier to push the Democrats left if they actually won. As it stands now no amount of pushing changes the dynamics of the House, Senate, and Presidency.
88% of Americans didnt approve of Israels actions in gaza and Biden supported it anyway. Why would Dems change long standing policy after the election if they won? Its a ridiculous idea thats not based on historical fact at this point. Thats without even considering AIPAC bribes having locked both the dems and repubs into supporting whatever they want, forever-- bribes paid for using american taxpayer money disguised as "aid". Israel is the only foreign aid recipient who gets all their money up front, and a big chunk of it can be spent as they please, not earmarked for weapons or purchases in the US. They can buy hookers and blow with our aid money if they want to. Of course they will use some of that money for bribes and election interference.
How? At that point they would have gotten what they need from you and toss you aside as a used tissues for all its worth
Like we did with Biden after he won. Which is how we got our minimum wage increase and cannabis rescheduling.
And codifying Roe v. Wade!
And stimulus checks every month!
And making sure COVID was managed and not ignoring it like Trump!
And ending police brutality!
And protecting LGBT rights!
And making a green new deal!
And...
I think so too. But the Democrats themselves have effectively messaged that they will not bow to public pressure to be better.
