In shock announcement, Trump says U.S. wants to take over Gaza Strip

[email protected]

You're one of those "once genocide starts, it can't get worse" people, aren't you?

How about admitting that the party is culpable and the people who said not to vote for them or people who didn't vote at all are also culpable, because the world isn't black and white and there's plenty of blame to go around?

No?

Black and white world?

Cool.

Trump is a real estate guy. That's why he wants Canada and Greenland: lots of undeveloped real estate. Never mind that the reason for this is given by being non-developable.

And now Gaza: he actually thinks that he just has to move a few million people somewhere, and turn it into his personal luxury resort.

Do you want another 9/11? That's how you get another 9/11.

It's equally fascinating how people like you think that only one group can be to blame for an electoral loss and that blame can't be shared.

And if their protest vote changed nothing, what was the point of it?

What have you actually done about this genocide aside from not making the effort to vote for someone?

Have you made any phone calls? Written any emails? Visited any politicians' offices?

Mars should be on that list

Exactly what that they are doing is not a distraction? Because every single time they say or do anything, someone on Lemmy says it's a distraction.

Now even announcing they will invade Gaza is a distraction?

Literally what is not a distraction?

Now tell me - keeping that state of mind and empathy - **what fucking difference does it make that Kamala "vocally supported an end to the war"?** Can you tell me right now - concretely and materialistically, no vague bullshit - how things were/would be better for Palestinians under the Dems? I've asked this question so many times and have never gotten an answer that wasn't just vague abstract BS like "but Trump said".

This is the easiest lob you could give me. It's because HISTORICALLY it has been easier to get organized and get Dems to change their minds than it will ever be under Trump. His son-in-law Jared Kushner has been openly talking about beach front property in Gaza over the last year and courting land development deals.

If you think Kamala Harris would have gone on the news with Netenyahu and said she was going to use the AMERICAN MILITARY TO TAKE GAZA, you are actually out of your mind. Once again, I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY'S POSITION. I DO NOT THINK THEY ARE DOING RIGHT BY THE PALESTINIAN PEOPLE. But we were already seeing movement regarding limiting arms and funds to Israel, and Biden's ceasefire. The public backlash was actually gaining momentum into the House. We were seeing congress people speaking out against Netenyahu and the Biden administration getting both internal and external pressure for a pause in arms.

And then, boom, Trump elected.

There is actually no hope for a free Palestine under Trump and a Republican House and Congress. They don't care about optics, they don't care about international relations, they will use all the military and money they have to make sure that Israel becomes the "holy land" they need for their Christofascist rapture.

I'm one of the "genocide is genocide" people. And you still haven't said how it's actually worse, though. More vague BS avoiding the question.

If Biden didn’t allow Israel to flatten Gaza we wouldn’t be here.

If Biden didn’t veto ceasefire at the UN multiple times we wouldn’t be here.

If Biden didn’t send the bombs to Israel we wouldn’t be here.

If Biden didn’t lie about the rape and beheadings we wouldn’t be here.

If Biden didn’t provide Israel with the political cover, including proposing sanctions on the ICC, we wouldn’t be here.

I could go on…

I agree, which should be easy to understand if you've actually been reading my comments instead of having a knee-jerk reaction.
Not American, so thankfully I don't have to (for now). And I did argue with a lot of Trumpists online before the election, but you can only do so much when the other party insists on being a shit stain.

[email protected]

"Shock", only people getting shocked are the centrist that arent far righters but actually believed in the shit they spread. But as always nobody learns from anything.

What about calling him Butcher Biden? Or is the Irish MEP also a Russian troll?

[email protected]

Liberals only pretend to care now that the president is a Republican. You could have stopped Biden at any time since October 2023, instead you mocked the people opposed to the genocide

[email protected]

Ok, so your entire comment is: "maybe the Dems would change their minds", did I get that right? I'm sorry to say, that not worth shit. And if you want to talk about history, here and here you go. America (Dems) have been supporting Israel that whole time.

AMERICAN MILITARY TO TAKE GAZA, you are actually out of your mind

If you're Palestinian, what difference does it make if the guns shooting at you, and the boots stepping on your corpse, are carried by the Israeli military or the American military? The use of the American military is only worse for the Americans, for the Palestinians it's more of the same.

[email protected]

Well, that precludes being a loyalist, doesn’t it? So clearly not the group to which I was referring. No need to be reductive as I’m not claiming a binary worldview.

I recall reading months ago that Jared Kushner visited and was calling it prime beachfront property then. ‍️

Do you want another 9/11?

Even if they don't, it feels like it would help them...

[email protected]

Actually, I just read one of your other comments, and you know what's extra bullshit? The fact that you're telling people you're not even American, but you're still trying to justify why people shouldn't have voted for Harris.

Under previous administrations, Palestinians in the United States were able to claim refugee status for their relatives and get them out of Gaza.

Now, that's gone.

The news cycle were able to report on everything going on in Gaza, and have people paying attention to the actual atrocities happening (never mind what's happening in Sudan and Congo).

Now, Trump and Elon dominate the news cycle.

So many people were willing to donate to Gofundme's for the people in Gaza to help them cross the border to Jordan/Egypt, or have enough money to at least buy food/shelter/medical treatment and survive until the ceasefire.

Now, people are losing their jobs or in such economic uncertainty DUE TO THE DIRECT ACTIONS OF THE TRUMP ADMIN there is no extra money for mutual aid.

The fact that your idealogical purity stance FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY has destroyed so much of the mutual aid mechanism surrounding Gaza and you don't even realize it is the most tragic part. I do digital infrastructure work pro bono for an organization that helps Doctors Without Borders, and guess what? The employees there have been furloughed due to the USAID freeze.

So yeah, Kamala and DonElon...totally the same fucking thing, right?

Because far more people will die.

My god.

Look up the Trail of Tears.
