lol cope

Think the Democrats would build Gaza a Lago?

Good on the AFP for being willing to put the critical context in the headline instead of just trying to present bland data.

At this point you're becoming walking textbook trolley problems.

Sometimes you have to choose the lesser evil, and you did good in the difference.

[not_rick@lemmy.world]

While I don’t disagree, I feel like we need to talk more about how disconnected the Democratic Party is from what their base actually wants. Them being diet republicans ain’t cutting it

[ohstopyellingatme@lemmy.world]

But you do realize that trump is much much much much worse, right? It’s not just about the genocide, you know.

[arbiter@lemmy.world]

No, they’d just quietly fund the Israeli plan for the same result.

[noneofurbusiness@fedia.io]

To some people the genocide overshadows anything else because... Y'know, it is/was a genocide. Telling those people that "it's not just about the genocide" is, frankly, barking up the wrong tree.

[ohstopyellingatme@lemmy.world]

“Yeah we got a genocide but at least we don’t have a genocide!”

True. But at the same time you're not going to get any of that by not voting and letting Republicans get elected. I mean get you butts out there and primary these centrist lead weights.

[papertowels@lemmy.one]

How about the start of two genocides?

[gsus4@mander.xyz]

Doesnt this boil down to the usual "the left falls in love, while the right falls in line"? hard to fall in love with genocide and lefties are renowed for not falling in line even against their best interests. Makes it hard to win as an incumbent, though, how did Obama win reelection, he wouldn't have been mistaken for a saint the second time round.

[baronvonj@lemmy.world]

primary these centrist lead weights.

This. Right. Here.

[kairubyte@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

If only genocide was the only issue now.

[fallowseed@lemmy.world]

i don't think he's much much much much worse, that's too many muchs- maaaybe much much worse- and that's neither here or there.. genocide IS a reasonable red line and you can't gaslight me off my solid footing in that regard.

[fallowseed@lemmy.world]

and sometimes you have a conscience that doesn't allow you to rationalize away complicity in genocide

[fallowseed@lemmy.world]

it is safe because i didn't allow myself to reduce supporting genocide to a trolley problem.
