Trump says Palestinians have ‘no alternative’ but to leave Gaza

If you have absolutely no empathy for fellow human beings, no sense of morality …… I guess that describes the orange guy

I voted for Vermin Supreme because ponies and Americans really need to learn how to brush their teeth.

so, are we only allowed to say ‘genocide’ when criticizing democrats?
Biden is complicit in genocide.
but when republicans do it “it’s not a genocide, it’s ethnic cleansing”.
Trump did call for ethnic cleansing. It's good people are calling him out on this, because that is what he did. The issue is that we should all be calling him out on genocide as well. There is no such thing as a peaceful ethnic cleansing. So when Trump called for ethnic cleansing it was also a call for genocide. I found this relevant quote on wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethnic_cleansing
"How could ‘forced deportation’ ever be achieved without extreme coercion, indeed violence? How, indeed, could deportation not be forced? How could people not resist? How could it not involve the destruction of a community, of the way of life that a group has enjoyed over a period of time? How could those who deported a group not intend this destruction? In what significant way is the forcible removal of a population from their homeland different from the destruction’ of a group? If the boundary between ‘cleansing’ and genocide is unreal, why police it?"
Peaceful ethnic cleansing is an oxymoron. Peace is mutually exclusive from forceful relocation.
I will update my above comment to reflect this.

It's important that we make it clear that there is no way to do an ethnic cleansing without genocide. I've updated my comment.

The last election is where democracy died.
There are other countries with their own elections facing the threat of a fascist takeover. Canada has one on October 20, 2025 that could be called earlier.

I don’t think that legitimate elections are happening in 4 years. They’re gutting everything and installing their flunkies just as they said they would in p2025.
I think that it is likely we will not get fair and free elections if any elections at all in 2026 and 2028. It's still possible that we do. We thankfully cannot rule out fascist incompetence in general, but we can't count on it either for specific things. Regardless if we do have elections or not, having a movement that can win elections in theory is still useful for resisting and defeating fascism.

This will mean fuck all the to Palestinians who became “displaced persons” just so the Israeli’s can have their own Lebensraum.
Does Lebensraum mean not to get attacked by your neighbors?
I'm not justifying this plan but to say that was Israel wanted all along when they disengaged in 2005 and didn't due start the war is a bit out there -
You've got to put a /s on that. People in this comment section unironically believe that.

I found this quote useful so I'm going to put it here as well as it seems incredibly relevant.

Wow it's almost like this was predictable. Good thing all those liberals who didn't vote for Harris could not have possibly known Trump would be even worse....
-
It shows how much they actually care about Palestinians if that's the takeaway from this...
-
Sure sure keep blaming Biden, just like Netanyahu wanted you to. Enjoy Trump’s approach to Palestine

No he didn't. He said "people of the area" & the world's people.
