US approves $7.4bn sale of more weapons to Israel used to ravage Gaza

My claims weren't based on numbers but policy changes. The numbers will reflect them with time. Just getting started.

I'm so sorry. I was able to get out with my daughter, who is gay, for that reason. I really hope you can be safe. I really worry about you and all of the other queer people in America and I wish I could do something.

In terms of Palestine, the only difference is what they would say out loud.

"But we need indentured servants!" - the rich

Gee, would have been nice to have democracy a few more years to maybe try and fix it.

You seem to be operating under the ludicrous assumption that there will ever be non-Russian style elections in the U.S. again.
I mean Putin had to win two consecutive elections before he could become the dictator he is today. America still has time. There's still freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, a mostly independent judiciary, and all the other hallmarks of a democracy. These things will be taken away if the American people don't resist, but again that takes time. It's way too early to conclude that American democracy is doomed. Minorities (and everyone else Republicans hate) do have a lot to worry about, but America is not a fascist dictatorship just yet.

Then why did Adelson pay trump 150m? Why did the tactics in the west bank ramp up only after the election? You think Kamala was going to carve up and auction off the gaza strip?
Neolibs and Fascists can both be bad but there is a difference. Again, nuance.

Please give a realistic scenario in which Republicans would willingly give up the total control of the U.S. government that they have now.

You're acting like you're not worried at all.

If we're asking stupid questions, let me add one: which US politician has taken the most money from Israel?
-
the US will turn into an autocratic state and Palestine will be erased.
Ah the iron convictions of those who participate in a democratic society.

When they lose the midterm elections? The institutions of American democracy aren't yet eroded enough that a bunch of dictators can just declare that elections don't matter. They need more time before they can just... Refuse to give up power. Things like freedom of speech and freedom of assembly, not to mention the independent power of the judiciary and states, would have to go first. If they pulled such a stunt in two years they just might push the blue states to secede, which would be too much of a shitshow even for the GOP.

I mean I don't live in America so I'm not personally worried.

Way too much

So far the bigger evil has secured a working ceasefire and people aren't dying to those bombs at the moment. Which is infinitely better than "genocide is ongoing".
-
Fix what exactly? It isn't that the democrats are a new party that suddenly popped into existence for the last election. They've been doing this shit forever.
-
Why would they acknowledge that they lost? Why would they give up power if they lost? You're just saying they will. Why?
I mean I don’t live in America so I’m not personally worried.
And there it is. "The genocides won't affect me, so I'm not worried about it." Plus, they're icky queer and brown people, am I right?

... mmhmmm. I guess no democracy is better then. I'm convinced.
