You don't get to do a genocide and then say the other guy is "100% concentrated evil."
No matter what action you took in this last election. You were voting for genocide.
So accusing anyone of voting for genocide is kind of silly because everyone did. No one really had a choice.
You voted for genocide and are now trying to absolve your conscience by claiming you had no choice, and that in reality everyone did what you did.
No, a lot of people didn't do what you did.
We all did, we all voted for it. We didn't all vote for fascism though. That was a you thing probably.
You looked at a party committing genocide -- the worst thing people can do to one another -- and made the decision to co-sign that. I voted for someone who opposed genocide.
No matter how desperately you want to water down the choice you made, it's not the same as the one I made. You don't actually have to shuffle along with genocide because Democrats lied about some half-assed loan forgiveness or something.
Assuming what is in heart incorrectly doesn't counter my facts.
I didn't vote for the Dems because of loan forgiveness, I voted for them because they were the least fascist option.
It's ok though, I understand you are struggling with how your vote supported rapidity brining fascists to power. The large amount of death caused by the loss of USAID. Sending of innocent people to El Salvador concentration camp. Autistic people being marked as non-human. And look at that, it isn't even half way though the first year of this term.
Literally, your only hope right now for a good outcome is if soo many people die that we 180 out of this with a revolution that somehow doesn't result in another authoritarian being in charge soon. Seriously, shit is soo fucked right now, I have become an accelerationist.
What do you think you are accomplishing by being such an insufferable ass?
Democrats should be trying to win back voters like me -- voters who have supported lots of Democrats in the past, but who will not support genocide. They (and you) are instead telling those voters to fuck off. They (and you) make a lot of noise about wanting to win elections, but have no strategy besides browbeating voters, a strategy that just failed.
Yes, 100 percent agree. Dems are useless. They could have really made a good showing when Trump started to do the fascist shit. But they decided to roll over and be smug about it.
Did you forget you were calling me progenocide a couple replies ago? I'm sorry I was just following the vibe. I guess you can dish it but you can't take it.
I said you voted for genocide because you voted for a party doing genocide. That's not the condescending shit you're doing, that's leveling a direct criticism.
And if you agree Dems are useless... what the fuck are you even saying anymore? They're useless, they're doing a genocide, but you still have to vote for them, because if you voted for someone opposed to the genocide, guess what, you actually voted for genocide!
Incoherent all the way down.
I don't understand why this is so hard for you to understand. There were only two options in the last election. Yeah, the Dems were shit, but they were way less fascist.
If you didn't vote for the Democrats you were voting for fascism. You enabled the fascist party of the United States of America to take charge. You helped fascists take charge of the most powerful country in the world.
As I've stated before, there was no vote that you could make that wasn't going to result in genocide. This whole no voting /voting for a third party thing is just a virtue signal. It's to make you feel good and that's it.
What really makes me sick is it seems like you have no remorse. We didn't know how bad Trump would be. But now that we do know you don't seem to care.
At least I feel bad about the dead Palestinians. You seem to have no remorse whatsoever over the harm and death that will be caused by the people that you have helped put into power.
I hope you realize it eventually and learn from it.
You're just repeating yourself. It's not any more convincing this time around.
You deserve everything you voted for Palestine to get.
What a fucking absurd thing for someone who supports genocide to say
