Which is it? the electorate is powerless to propaganda or well-informed by a diversity of information?
Having the POWER to see something and seeing it are two different things. Having the POWER to be informed and being informed are two different things. So, now that that extremely basic principle is hopefully cleared up, and I don't have to chew it up any more for baby bird here to swallow it, we can return to:
I believe the american government chooses what narrative they want presented in public media. The fact that the american electorate didn't see the genocide for the last 20 years is a direct result of 20 years of political propaganda presented by both parties, because israel as a neocolonial project is worth more to them than the lives and sovereignty of palestinians.
I believe Biden continues this position despite the fact that foreign-owned and decentralized media platforms have broken through the wall of propaganda and has swayed public opinion against Israel. I believe Biden continues to be complicit in attempting to propagandize the American Electorate and I believe this is very much within his power to stop.
I believe Biden will lose to trump, both because of this gross miscalculation and that it has become apparent that it is just a political calculation to him.
And I believe you will have no one to blame for a trump presidency other than liberals like yourself who affirm the genocide is happening but deny responsibility in the same breath.
Fucking lol.
Anything but the electorate accepting responsibility, I see.
LMAO anything but the FUCKING PRESIDENT accepting responsibility, i see
Didn't we already agree that the president has his own moral responsibilities to answer to?
I'm glad that you've gone fully mask off, that projection about showing contempt for the voters was pretty weak. Now that you've admitted that you think that the electorate just follows what THE STATE shows them and that you have an incredible contempt for them that would bring a joyous tear to a fascist's eye, you can be your genuine, worst self without having to lie about it anymore. :)
I just have incredible contempt for liberals who believe their atrocities are justified because the electorate has just magically been ill-informed on them through no fault of the government, and especially not their side of the government.
It's hilarious how quickly you changed from "SO YOU THINK THE ELECTORATE CAN'T SEE A GENOCIDE?? DO YOU THINK THEY'RE IDIOTS" to "Of COURSE the electorate can't see the genocide, the little idiots!"
And you wonder why you lot get called out as the fascists you are. Enjoy your doublethink. We're done here.
Twig and plumbs.
