So you knowingly voted to throw Palestinians under the extermination bus, is that it? And you consider yourself to be on the right side of history? And you never considered that perhaps your slavish ideological devotion to following the rules of a fascist political system was slow-boiling you into a fascist?
You're talking about the ten years of ethnic cleansing the Ukranian nazi government was doing to ethnic Russians within its borders, right? You wouldn't possibly consider yourself to be against genocide while supporting these guys, right? Because nobody could possibly be that deluded, right? Tell me you're not that programmed.
The bus was already headed for the Palestinians, and we were well past the point of being able to stop it. I voted to make a last ditch effort to turn the wheel toward the part of the crowd with the fewest people. YOU voted to step on the gas.
When did I say to follow the rules? I said use all the tools we've got - whether those tools are legal or not, idgaf. Voting happens to be legal, so yay I guess, but that's not why you should do it.
Why would any of that change my opinion of being against killing the people of Ukraine? Russia's obviously doing some horrible shit, but I'd be against a genocide on them too. Same with Israel or any other nation that's decided to play the villain - none of that shit justifies attacking their civilians. ...is this really a controversial take?
