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

Please give a realistic scenario in which Republicans would willingly give up the total control of the U.S. government that they have now.
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.
You're acting like you're not worried at all.
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.
-
I am an anarchist and have only voted once for secession. I would've voted against Trump if I were American though. What is your point though?
-
You're just saying they will. Why?
Again, because if they don't the country will implode and they'll lose all power. Or the military will physically remove them. Dismantling a democracy isn't something you can just declare. It's a lot of painstaking hard work, especially in a country with checks and balances as strong as America.
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?
I said personally for a reason. It's another bad thing happening in the world that I hope won't happen, but don't have the emotional capacity to strongly sympathize with.

The fall of the American federal government to fascism is not as foregone a conclusion as it is being made out to be.
The same factions that didn't want to change the incumbent policy are the same that are accepting the fascist movement without resistance.

Are you fucking for real? You are trying to spin this as positive? Y'all are delusional.

Imagine eliminating homelessness with that money.
