Can I get a smug lecture on how you're choosing the third, disconnected track?

thank you for proving you don't mind the extermination of Palestinians

If an issue isn't on the ballot you can't vote on it.

Vote for your perfect ideals in the primaries. Vote for the better of the 2 options in the general.

The problem is if someone is willing to support genocide, it's not actually possible to perform a fair "lesser of two evils" analysis. There's literally nothing worse than genocide. If you're willing to support that for power, there's nothing you won't support, no promise you won't go back on, no group of constituents you won't betray. How many trans people voted for AIPAC democrats on the "lesser of two evils" approach, just to watch those same assholes turn around and start talking about "keeping men out of women's sports" the moment it became politically popular?

In order to judge the lesser evil, you need to actually be able to judge the beliefs of a candidate. But these people don't actually believe in anything. They don't really support anything. They're just chasing polls and donor dollars to win power. You can't perform a lesser of evils analysis against a shapeshifter.

It is one thing to vote for imperfect candidate it is another to support literal genocidal terroristic candidates . Never vote for war criminals never

Thank you for admitting you don't mind the extermination of every single vulnerable people

The same AIPAC Democrats are now turning in droves against trans people. It's almost like if you're willing to throw one group of your supporters under the bus, then you'll be willing to it again.

"How could the betrayer have betrayed me?! He promised me he would only betray the other people!"

Did the lgbt+ and Latinos got most of their home destroyed, are they experienced human made famine by destroying most of their agricultural fields , do they get them kids shots and bombed? Do they get literally raped by the American army? They are facing injustice and discrimination but don't dare act like they are getting genocide like Palestinians.

Yes I've seen this newly established talking point. Doesn't actually work or mean anything. Allowing Donald Trump to increase the suffering of many peoples was factually a bad thing to have done. Trying to distract from it won't work at all.

Facts are not talking points. If you think bullshit terms like talking point would shut down discussion you are dead wrong. It the same type of bullshit terms as the term work republicans use . You are ok with the extermination of Palestinians while you pretending that LGBTIQ and Latinos are getting exterminated. Your lesser of evil bullshit is the reason you got trump

Facts are not talking points.

WTF?

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Yes and whatever other lies that don't make sense you can come up with. All the bullshit. It's all my religion. I believe all the evil things. Now, let's not talk about the fact that people like you put trump in power and hurt Gazans more than any Democrat ever could.

I am thankful for not being an American. You Americans are idiots who vote for terrorists since the start of your shitty country

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

I am thankful not to be a tankie. I often wish I wasn't American, but it's not because I have an indefensible ideology that awards itself undeserved moral purity. I know my country is fucked up. You don't know you are.

[–] rumimevlevi@sh.itjust.works 0 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

You are as bad as a tankie defending war criminals

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Information you have on me: I'm realistic about how certain lies/propaganda helped elect trump. Information I have on you: you lie about being concerned for Gaza. Yeah I'm pretty much Hitler compared to you.

So the one who is against Democrats and Republicans helping genocide is acting like he cares about Palestine, but the one who defends one side doing genocide is not supporting genocide? You are a scummy cultist. We Tunisians had our blood mixed with Palestinians when we hosted the plo resistance and we have been supporting Palestinian from a very young age. You American scums have destroyed multiple countries, helped the genocide of Palestinians for over half a century, and staged coups in dozens of countries.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

You're leading me to believe you know what you're doing and aren't just ignorant to how our elections work. Looking like you're the Hitler of this conversation.

[–] rumimevlevi@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago) (1 children)

I don't give a damn about your shitty system and your shitty country. All I know is that you support genocide. You are the Hitler defending genocide when democrats do it

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah dude the person who'd love to make sure Republicans stay in power, you, is the one who wants to stop the genocide.

[–] rumimevlevi@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah the person who want the usa to stop helping genocide, do not want to stop genocide but the one who support his cult helping israel exterminating Palestinians want to stop genocide . I do not want republicans to stay in power, your shitty democratic cult want it. Your shitty establishment democrats are going to the mediatic wing of the fascists fox news to trash the progressive and agreeing with their fascist policies

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 0 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

the person who want the usa to stop helping genocide

That's clearly not what you want.

[–] rumimevlevi@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 hours ago

When did your cult leaders Obama, Biden, and Harris ever promise to end all weapons shipments to Israel? You want the Democrats to be the ones who will exterminate Palestinians. You want the Democrats to be the ones genociding Cubans, and you want the Democrats to be the ones to create yet another failed state in Iran.
