"Be as happy with genocide as I am or you support trump!" - People who are still absolutely fine with trump as long as no one got to vote for an anti-genocide candidate.
"I want to support the best possible outcome for palestinians".
That would be no genocide. Luckily for your wing of the party, that wasn't on the ballot so centrists got the only thing they ever fought for.
Oh great. How did you achieve no genocide?
By conditioning aid to netanyahu.
“My complaining about Harris is identical to a political campaign for Trump. I have plausible deniability by claiming I care about the genocide I campaign to maximize.”
-You
Anyone with any criticism of your only policy is a trump supporter according to you and every other pro-genocide centrist.
Genocide has been maximized under Trump in addition to all his other atrocities. People who actually care about preventing genocide dont campaign to help Trump.
Trump will have a new property in Gaza now thanks to your campaigning for him.
Congratulations. Your insistence on genocide and nothing else ever has paid off like you wanted.
You had a choice between maximizing genocide and Harris. You choose to maximize genocide while claiming to care about genocide.
It is not a coincidence that you campaign in favor of Trump while proving you don’t care that you maximize genocide.
You got the only thing you wanted either way. You're just mad that not everyone is a genocidal monster like you on your best day.
A genocidal monster is Trump the person you are campaigning for.
A genocidal monster would spend their time on lemmy campaigning against an alternative to maximum genocide.
People who are against genocide make an effort to reduce it.
So you are verifiably pro genocide.
Centrists really believe that anyone who has a problem with the genocide they provided weapons for must want genocide.
Look at this garbage tortured logic.
“Maximum genocide is the same as minimum genocide.”
-You
You’re proving how little you care about genocide by campaigning against Harris.
It was certainly the minimum you were willing to accept.
Of course, minimizing genocide means preventing genocide as much as possible.
If you wanted to prevent genocide that would be your goal.
But you are very proud of your support for maximum genocide while campaigning against Trumps opponents.
You have succeeded in your goal of maximum genocide.
You've convinced yourself that genocide opposition is genocide support.
You’re trying to convince me that maximum genocide and minimum genocide are the same thing.
It’s blatantly disingenuous.
You just don't want anyone speaking out against the only thing you're capable of loving.
“Speaking out” in this context means you campaigning to maximize genocide.
The election is over. You're still trying to convince everyone to agree with your pro-genocide shit.
Because genocide is all you are and all you will ever be. The election is over. You're still carrying water for the genocidal. Repeat your flimsy justification for your unconditional support for every candidate who supports genocide all you want. You're getting the only thing you want.
Another election is around the corner. So you continue your pro Republican campaign to maximize genocide.
Repeat your flimsy justification for your unconditional support of republicans and maximum genocide. You probably already have plans to stay at Trumps new property on Gaza beach… an outcome only possibly under Trump thanks to your campaigning for him.
Unlike you, I don't want genocide supporting candidates. You're fine with anyone as long as they don't want there to be living Palestinians.
According to you there are no candidates that don’t support genocide. Only a choice between maximum genocide and minimum genocide.
You campaign for maximum genocide because you don’t care about reducing genocide.
You don’t care about the suffering of my Palestinian brothers and sisters. They are a political tool to you. This is proven by your lack of interest in reducing the genocide of my people.
Keep blaming people who don't love genocide like you do to the exclusion of literally everything else.
Those who love genocide campaign for maximum genocide
