Being against all genocide isn’t oversimplifying anything

here's an example for you to drive home why sentiment like this is dumb and creates false equivalencies. when I was 14, I worked at a grocery store. there were two managers that I would get scheduled with. they both sucked and were awful human beings. however, one was a known child predator. which one do you think I'd rather get scheduled with?

[–] hamid@vegantheoryclub.org 14 points 4 days ago (10 children)

To map your analogy to the US 2 party system the one who isn't a known child predator is also a child predator and works to keeps the other one in power. They both work for the same super predator.

I, John Brown, am now quite certain, that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away, but with blood.

He did know that already in 1859

This "both sides" is bullshit when you are getting a train run on you by the Republicans...

And the leader of the Democrats describes his job as "keeping the left pro Israel".

That's what happens when lobbies can just buy your politicians

Americans think their favorite political sports team cares about them like the stripper actually loved them. No, you just gave them what they wanted and as soon as you're out of sight, they'll forget you and keep doing their job.

For strippers it's doing a workout for a living and being proud of their bodies. For politicians it's gaslighting the public into thinking they're the good guys as they socially murder at home and sweep up blood abroad.
