President-elect Donald Trump’s promise could lead to a 60-day cease-fire, allowing Israel to suspend hostilities until military support resumes under the new administration.
Exactly. For a country with as many mass shootings as we see we are a soft country.
People strap bombs to their chest to achieve less toward their own goals. These brats think major change will happen in a year. The reality is that if you want major change you got to accept that it is unlikely to happen out life times.
Almost everyone in north Gaza will be dead by new years. That happened entirely under Biden. Do you think Trump will kill them a second time?
We all know Trump is objectively worse but your argument is terrible; it’s like the Americans saying we should overlook Bush’s atrocities like Abu Ghraib because Saddam Hussein was worse. No, that’s just a fallacy.
Your premise is based on this: "Almost everyone in north Gaza will be dead by new years. "
Which is clearly and obviously false. Check back with me on Jan 1.
"Do you think Trump will kill them a second time?"
The Trump administration will enable the complete erasure of the Palestinian people and their land. Huckabee has said as much already. Israelis have said as much too. I believe them.
Finally, do you think nothing else matters? Do you think the consequences of a Trump administration beyond Palestine don't matter? If so, I'd encourage you to spend less time virtue signaling and more time checking your privilege.
The UN has said it explicitly. Famine has taken place and aid is not allowed in. Biden withdrew his ultimatum and the Generals Plan is being implemented. But are you happy if only 70% of North Gazans died then man you sure showed me up.
It’s no question Trump is worse for West Bank and Palestinian aspirations, because he’s only accelerating the same policy that Biden agreed to. In terms of Gaza there really is no difference; the four years of Biden was worse for their lives than 4 years of Trump. But you’re being offensive by saying I need to ignore the Palestinian people whose funerals I attended because Trump is going to do the same thing in a nastier way. You dismissing my community’s real pain as virtue signaling just shows how out of touch you are and why Harris lost. Listen for a change.
If you want me to listen you should probably say something beyond vague platitudes and "your argument is terrible".
What astounds me is that you expect me to be completely consumed with what's important to you while you are completely dismissive of what's important to me. As if somehow the ONLY issue that mattered in this election was the Palestinian people. As if every horrible horrible thing that is going to happen under Trump to American people has to take back seat to YOUR cause. That's the definition of virtue signaling and it's incredibly offensive to me.
Feel free to have the last word but I won't engage with you further.
I mean, assuming everyone on an instance has exactly the same views is kind of asinine. You won't find me pushing that shit. And plenty of others from ml also.
.ml has some trigger happy mods but nobody gets banned for criticizing the democratic party for supporting a genocide.
You can tell how much of an echo chamber it is here since there are no weapons restrictions for Trump to lift. Because the democrats did not place any.

Oh you don't get banned for going along with Russian propaganda? Wow, weird huh.
But then you do get banned for pointing out Russian propaganda.
Here.
That's @[email protected] pushing against BlueSky, spreading his usual bullshit links about "Nazis". He thinks Ukraine is filled with Nazis and Russia was right to invade it. Now "BlueSky is filled with Nazis"
It doesn't take a genius to suss this out, but that's what the poorly educated Russians don't get. Or they rely on Americans being equally stupid, which is a good bet, honestly.
But for people with a normal amount of media/political literacy? Lol.
Everything I'm told by the state media is good and correct and everything would be fine if it weren't for the underhanded secret jews russians feeding dissent
Hey! Why am I being banned for following a user around and making personal attacks at them??
You guys genuinely can't argue like adults, it's very irritating.
I've not followed anyone around nor have I made any personal attacks. Is "are you pro-Russian?" a personal attack in your opinion? I guess we'll find out.
Are you pro-Russian?
Do you believe Russia has broken international law with their illegal war of aggression by invading Ukraine in February 2022?
(And I know you won't answer any of that, you'll just continue with the garbage quality propaganda. Which is to say utilising shitty rhetoric to push your agenda. Ie the childish nature of your wannabe argument. I wish you could see just how ridiculous it is, but you're genuinely not able to. If you were, you'd be too ashamed to write that, lol.)
Stimulus: "You're falling into the exact antisemetic tropes The Protocols of the Elders of Zion inspired in the late 18th century. You're just replacing 'Russian' for 'Jew' for your paranoid delusions that act as thought stoppers for any dissent"
See before; "I know you won't answer any of that."
If only you saw how childish your rhetoric is. I can actually show you. We'll have a whole conversation about it, and I'll teach you to use it better... after you reply to a simple yes or no question: Do you believe Russia has broken international law with their illegal war of aggression by invading Ukraine in February 2022?
There were two ways to vote for Trump. 1) Mark Trump on your ballot and turn it in, or 2) Not vote for Harris, not turn in a ballot at all.
Quit being coy, just take a bow and acknowledge your victory. You stood strong against genocide, and helped elect the only candidate who can't be reasoned with and whose stated political policy was to SPEED UP THE GENOCIDE. Congrats! If you thought their blood wasn't on your hands before, it absolutely is now.

In that case, Trump has won with an overwhelming majority in every election he's ever run in, since nonvoters are like half the population and all of them count as voting for Trump.

By this logic a vote for Jill Stein would be a vote for Harris, lol. Question your political masters, this just isn't logical at all.

It is good for Democratic voters to have failed while supporting genocide. You shouldn't support genocide and I shouldn't have to lecture you like this. Be a good person.

Israel already has unconditional support for its genocide and opened up two new fronts with the suppory of the Biden-Harris administration. Israel does not have one hsnd tied behind its back. The dominant global empire supports it materially and diplomatically.
Your lesser evil logic means nothing here. It is again just a thought terminating cliché from your political masters. Instead of justifying lesser-evil genocide, please go and inform yourself and work to help others.
Congrats! If you thought their blood wasn't on your hands before, it absolutely is now.
Blood is on the hands of those committing and supporting genocide, not those who fifht against it. Look at how this political illogic has twisted your understanding of basic reality.
Nope, it was the apathy. Democrats that came out to vote for Biden 4 years ago stayed home. That's a FACT you can count in the number of votes cast this election vs last.
You know what else is a fact? People that stayed home and didn't vote DIDN'T GET EXIT POLLED.
Exit polls and polls leading up to election. Come on now, lets not mince words or pretend the data wasnt obvious. They did know. It was all over the news snce the day she started her run.
"The economy, particularly inflation and the cost of living, is the primary issue for a majority of voters."
Bidens historically low approval rating was well documented, and the reason for it being low was well understood. She chose to say that "she couldnt think of anything she'd change" or something like that. She ran on a platform that had already ended up on the rocks long ago. Centrists just put their fingers in their ears and pretended Biden was the second coming of FDR whenever Biden was criticised, but the numbers were there waiting to be read if you cared about reality and dropped the infantile "rooting for your sports team, blue no matter who" mentality.
88% of Americans disagreed with how the US was acting in the Israeli war on gazans. Did you think that would be cost-free, or that Biden showed he had votes to burn in the last election or the ones before that? he didnt. Harris knew that wouldnt be consequence free. She ran with it anyway. Thats just Bidens stubborn rightwing-fellating petulant stupidity thats been the hallmark of his entire career bleeding into Harrnis' campaign. A competent politician wouldnt have taken on that baggage when it was so obviously going to cost big in swing states.
"The vice president has said she would not change from Biden’s policies, and argued that Israel has a right to defend itself. But she has also said that far too many innocent Palestinians have been killed"
Bruh, I'm just here for the memes. But I can start commenting on political stuff more to even out my instance's biases if that would help. Honestly haven't paid much attention to which trolls were from where, but I'll take your word for it...
It's fine, the internet will internet. Unless someone tells me what I've done wrong, I'm just gonna assume one downvote gave it the initial velocity for more downvotes. Trying to understand it beyond that will make you go crazy.
