They don't even want the soap on a rope.

Oh wow it's like what both Malcolm X and Martin Luther King criticized about the "liberal" party members being a bunch of frauds is still the same 6 decades later.

Shocked I tell you shocked.

People are still assuring me Gaza would also have been magically saved if we had successfully voted in Harris.

[–] WrenFeathers@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

No one is saying Gaza would have been saved had Harris won. What IS being said, is that we would not have had a side-order of illegal-deportation inspired riots in LA, a systematic stripping of many of our constitutional rights, the nearly complete reversal of all LGBTQ+ rights, a disassembled healthcare system, and the countless childish temper tantrums thrown.

The rest of the world knows that both sides are NOT the same. You all need to quit pretending you have some superpower that enables you to see the unseen.

[–] CalipherJones@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

Woke is understanding Malcolm X was a completely sane and logical human being.

[–] j0ester@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

well, not that shocked.

[–] YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 11 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, trump is doing so much better than Harris ever would have! Remember when she said she was going to destroy the entirety of it's people and open a golf resort with her name on the ashes! So glad trump is not doing that!

Don't hurt yourself bending over backwards to eat your own ass

[–] WanderingVentra@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago (11 children)

Liberals care more about the golf resort than the genocide.

It wouldn't have but we wouldn't be getting plans to build a trump tower in its place because it's prime beach real estate

[–] enthusiasticamoeba@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Yes, the real problem here is the real estate development and not the deaths of millions of people.

[–] Joeffect@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But when you're fueled by greed and you don't care about human lives and your only concern is to have more money and property...

Because that's the goal here... They don't give a shit about others especially when they are not white... Well rich... But you get it...

https://time.com/7212848/trump-gaza-own/

So yes it's about killing people to steal their land... Sound familiar? It's just as important to understand the end goal...

[–] enthusiasticamoeba@lemmy.ml 1 points 18 hours ago

Yes I'm well aware of these things. My point was that it's a little silly to believe Harris would have been better purely on the basis that she wouldn't develop the land for personal profit after helping facilitate the complete eradication of a people.

I don't think that's what you personally believe, but it was not super clear from your original comment.

[–] null_dot@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

How do you intend to avert the deaths of millions of people?

[–] enthusiasticamoeba@lemmy.ml 1 points 18 hours ago

Lol are you saying that their deaths are inevitable?

Ideally the US would, you know, stop sending weapons and condemn Israel's actions, while putting pressure on other countries to do the same. At the very least.

[–] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 89 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Aaannd...

This is exactly why we are on our own. MAGAts are out to kill us/rob us, Dems are cowards that are more than happy to let us twist in the wind for whatever perceived benefit. A third party has basically no shot in our current system.

We are screwed.

🤦‍♀️ 🙄 🤡 🖕 💩

We always for violence. Not advocating because I don't think we are quite there. But we should keep it in our back pocket and maybe remind the dems, whose addresses are easier to find then an ice agent's, that we have it.

[–] Makhno@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago

The graves will be big enough for both Maga and democrats, fear not

As someone who has lived in the US (and travelled extensively), but is not a US citizen, this is the kind of stuff that makes me believe that sane Americans are unfortunately incapable of getting their country back from the oligarchs and the racists.

If the Democrats were not corrupt and had balls (no sexism intended), they would be openly supporting the LA protests and trying to establish a Trump free zone in LA were Trump shills and lackeys would be interned and Trump "laws" would not be followed.

Unfortunately, most Americans are only good at talking about freedoms and most are too lazy and corrupt to actually follow through.

[–] IamSparticles@lemmy.zip 25 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Well, shit. My rep is on the list. Just fired off an email to her office that some intern will read and increment a counter.

What exactly does ICE have to do with antisemitism? Ugh.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

The same thing opposition to netanyahu's genocide had to do with it.

Not a fucking thing, but democrats like voting with republicans and need an excuse.

[–] Triflingmagoo@sh.itjust.works 15 points 2 days ago

So now, people protesting ICE are anti-semites? Okrrr…

Good to know that the bar is always moving.

[–] dinren@discuss.online 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

And yet if we talk about doing anything about it, the mods here ban us.

[–] rumimevlevi@lemmings.world 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

See democrats and republicans at not so different in many aspects
