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

[regrub@lemmy.world]

Direct actions taken to degrade civil rights and human rights within the US in pursuit of their Project 2025 plans

[doomsider@lemmy.world]

I love threads like this. I can now block all the people who are here to lie and manipulate us. They are not here to have honest conversations.

[flyingsquid@lemmy.world]

So... like taking over Gaza?

[stamets@lemmy.world]

Just a not even remotely friendly reminder that if you are American, eligible to vote and didn't vote for Kamala then you actively voted for this. Actively voted for genocide. If you didn't vote you're even fucking worse because at least the Republicans were willing to openly say what horrible people they are. You just don't care.

The United States is a failed country, a terrorist state and should be wrenched away from its people. You do not deserve to have a country that large with that much power when you are incapable of agreeing on a singular fucking thing. The United States should be forcibly broken up into at least 2, if not more, countries that can make up a trade bloc. This bullshit of getting everyone killed from coast to coast because of your pathetic patriotic ego of "wahhhhhhh but my countryyyyyyyyyy"

Fuck the United States.

[treczoks@lemmy.world]

That is a problem that I also noticed.

If you didn't vote then you voted. Got it.

[jomusic@lemmy.ml]

I mean, a huge number of his own supporters are questioning this. I wouldn't call this a viable strategy.

[jaybone@lemmy.world]

Worst. Strip. Ever.

[stamets@lemmy.world]

Correct. If you didn't vote then you are spineless, a coward and lack any morals. You saw fascism coming and ignored what everyone said and then decided that it wasn't worth the bare minimum effort of voting.

If you did not cast a ballot and you were eligible to do so then the things I want to say to you would get me banned from lemmy and probably arrested.

[zenitsu@sh.itjust.works]

Not engaging is also a choice, a very shit one in this case. Think of it like this, you either contributed -1, 0, or +1 to a fascist takeover, sure 0 might be better than +1 but taking a neutral stance against such a dogshit prospect really puts the chair in armchair revolutionary, and doesn't make you much better than the cheeto worshippers.

[mrkawfee@lemmy.world]

People just don't want to accept that Trump is the true face of the US. It doesn't matter who is in charge.

[saeveo@lemmy.world]

Claire Daly is absolutely pro-Russian, yeah.

No longer an MEP thankfully, her and that other clown Mick Wallace were both voted out..

[zenitsu@sh.itjust.works]

People who are too moronic to understand the tightrope that any administration is walking in the middle east and think it's "just as bad" to give in to a fascist takeover instead are too far gone, and should start taking whatever meds are required asap.

[redredme@lemmy.world]

Did biden do stupid shit? Sure. Did he made it worse? Yup. Was his at times clear and present dementia a deciding factor why trump has become president? Absofuckinglutely.

Is Biden the one proclaiming gaza a Trump realty project?

Most fucking certainly not.

[redex68@lemmy.world]

"It seems that there might finally be a temporary peace in gaza... wait, it's, it's, BY GOD IT'S THE US COMING FROM BEHIND WITH A STEEL CHAIR"

[auraithx@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

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”?

Because it means we haven't been completely been written off yet, public pressure could improve things. So you'd want the person who controls your fate to at least pretend to have empathy, not the maniac who used 'Palestinian' as a slur.

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”.

There was still a Palestine. It's really not that complex. There is a clear difference.

[mitm0@lemmy.world]

Both sides were pro-genocide, you need a multi-party system

[atin@lemmy.world]

I for one would love for him to go to Gaza.

[abidanyre@lemmy.world]

We do. But until then, everything they say stands.

[index@sh.itjust.works]

Voting the red and blue parties wouldn't have save it either. It's time you accept the reality that the government is rigged. Making the good and best possible decision and not the "lesser evil" or other bullshit propaganda tells you is what you are supposed to do.
