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

Which many seem to not want to see or hear

It's a world filled with people who believe what feels good

It's not a genuine question, it's just another excuse to deflect responsibility. Why are we responsible for our actions, words and constant rhetoric? Its these other people who are to blame, that we knowingly supported with our actions.

I guess we know where you stand then.

Frankly I'm getting sick and tired of every story about Gaza being filled with smug comments blaming everything on liberal Lemmy members. Biden was a shit candidate who was losing badly before Gaza ever happened. Harris was a golden opportunity to pivot the Biden campaign into something that stood a chance of winning and instead Harris ran on a campaign of "I'm exactly like Biden but a little younger" which is the most gobsmackingly stupid decision of a political campaign in at least a couple decades.
Harris didn't lose because of Palestine. I mean it didn't fucking help, but there were plenty of other reasons she lost. So can we please stop with all the annoying smug "are you happy with what you did?" comments? It's getting really fucking old.
Now for what I actually wanted to say.
Besides billionaires and straight, white, conservative, "Christian" men, I honestly don't know who benefits from a Trump/Musk presidency as compared to a Harris/Walz presidency.
Only billionaires are benefiting. Straight, white, conservative, Christian or even men, none of those groups in any combination is benefiting. They may not be getting shafted as hard as others are, but only billionaires are going to see anything even remotely positive out of this.

Hmm, I'm worried to find out if we're talking a Fahrenheit/Celsius kinda scale where our expectations become negative at some point, or if it's more of a Kelvin where absolute 0 is the destruction of planet earth or life as we know it.

From my perspective, that's "our" second civil war

Kushner condos for everyone!

After seeing this sentiment expressed for the 50th time on similar threads, I’m more convinced than ever that: 1.) Many Democrats prefer beating up their left flank to actually opposing Republican ideology, 2.) Many Democrats are somehow pleased that the genocide is proceeding in this fashion because they both get to genocide Palestinians and beat up on their left flank. If Kamala had won, they would have only been able to enjoy half of these pastimes.

We have to look at the positive side: from now on, every day will be the best¹ day of the rest of our lives!
1.— Least worst, truthfully, but it works out the same, more or less.

There was a poll of non-voters who voted four years ago. The number one reason they gave for not voting was the genocide in Gaza at 29%. I was surprised by this, but yeah you can potentially say she lost because of Palestine.
I agree she was a shit candidate who, if anything, aimed to the right of Biden. I still voted against Donald Trump. I'm not here to gloat at all, but look at the situation the world is in now.

Take a sip, if you dare.
Don't threaten me with a good time.
