    Now that can’t be, I received word from a liberal on this very platform that the US didn’t send them $24 billion in weapons, they actually only sent $20 billion therefore the genocide is back on the menu!

    Sometimes I wonder if liberals even feel cognitive dissonance at being the same MAGA chuds they claim to hate so much.

    Ah wait, if they did, they wouldn’t be liberals!

      Liberals delude themselves as being different simply because they “support” liberation politics but they are simply helpless against the system that forces them to support fascist policies

        None of you dipshits have any solutions to anything. All you do is make noise. “Don’t vote for the Dems” " Okay , then what?" crickets. Gaza getting fucked no matter what is literally just a reason to ignore the lot of you.

            Leftists have no solutions on Gaza. They just make noise. “Don’t vote for anyone who can win and change things” isn’t a solution and anyone who isn’t a child understands that .

              Depends on where the Leftists are. If you’re strictly referring to America, then the Leftist stance is that both the DNC and GOP are aligned on their undying loyalty to Israel as a tool of Imperialism, and therefore neither option presents a pro-Gaza path. Instead, building up revolutionary pressure by supporting anti-Imperialist movements worldwide and organizing domestically outside the bounds of bourgeois electoralism builds pressure. This pressure can be levied against the ruling parties.

              Your “solution” is to sacrifice Gaza.

                There is significant anti-genocide faction within the democratic party that is trying to change things from within. There is nothing like that within the GOP. The only way to stop this (and the broader unconditional support of Israel) is through the democratic party. However small you think the chances of success of that strategy, leftists offer literally zero alternative paths to this outcome that have any chance of success.

                  This is vibes-based. The DNC will not cease support for Israel because the US State needs it for its Imperialist ambitions.

                  However small you think the chances of success of that strategy, leftists offer literally zero alternative paths to this outcome that have any chance of success.

                  Why do you believe organizing and building outside pressure has zero chance of success? Why do you think the DNC will magically work against their material interests?

                  Feel free to come back and apologize when I end up being correct and the DNC never ceases support for Israel without outside pressure and risk of system destabilization.

    Your choice doesn’t affect Gaza. That power lies with Israel and their next election.

    For the rest of the world though, it will.

          the genocidal state of israel has left no other solution but its own destruction. It is clear that they will accept no peace, and that they will never stop as long as they exists.

              The fact that u would even compare genocide with dismantlement a warmongering genocidal state tells me everything i need to know about u. Fucking liberal moralizers, doesnt give a single shit about literal genocide but when the people being murdered and raped and slaughtered and robed of everything fucking dare to fight back all of the sudden they start pearl clutching about some dead soldiers and the inevitable destruction of an organization whose only purpose is genocide. And u know what gets me the most about u fucking clowns that when its all done and history and its undeniable who was right u pretend like u were on the side of the oppressed all along u would have defended Rhodesia u would have defended apartheid South Africa, u would have defended the British colonies in Kenya and the french colonies in Algeria just like u defend israel today, and u would have said “well the way black people are treated is bad but violence is always wrong” during the American civil rights movement because u are a piece of shit.

            “Abolish a globally recognized state is not genocide and annihilation” is probably the most genocidal take i’ve ever heard.

              Are you under the impression that the government of Israel is the same as the people living there? Do you think replacing a fascist apartheid ethno-state with a secular, democratic Palestinian state representing Palestinians and former-Israelis equally with minority protections is genocide?

              You’re giving off a large number of Hitler-particles.

                Do you think the people living under that state, whether they agree or not agree with the action of Netanyahu, will want to disband their own country and live under different name after existing for more than half a centuries? It’s no different than saying replacing Palestine and put them under a democratic Israel state representing Israeli and former-Palestinian equally. I bet they will like to have a two state solution than anything.

                You’re giving off a large number of Hitler-particles.

                  Nazi Germany was disbanded. Imperial Japan was disbanded. These countries were commiting mass slaughter and genocide of innocents, just like Israel.

                  Israel cannot continue to exist as a fascist ethno-state and needs to be replaced with a single secular democratic state for Palestinians and former Israelis alike.

                  Read a book and stop defending genocide .

          Some people can more easily envision murder then the working class (of every country) taking control of their own lives and living in peace and harmony.

      If you vote for genocide you prove that like Biden you do not have any red lines.

      Why do Democrats pretend to criticize Biden for letting Israel invade Rafah? They are voting for it in the end. You care as little about Palestinians as Biden.

        You can obsessed with that issue all you want, i’m not even American and have no say on what your choice are, and i can give them all the attention i have it still won’t change shit until Netanyahu step down.

        My current biggest concern is climate crisis, which unsurprisingly affect basically everyone, including Palestinians. Guess which party call that a hoax, are actively destroying the planet, and guess which country are in the top 5 greenhouse gas emission.

        Also lemme know if there’s any party that share your opinion and concern.

          PSL shares both yours and their concerns.

          Either way, neither the DNC nor the GOP are attempting to meet the important climate targets seriously, they need to be replaced. If they can’t be replaced electorally, then they must be replaced through force.

              Do you understand what the word “internal” means? People outside the US don’t really care what you do to yourselves, but what you do that affects other countries politically, economically, and militarily does matter.

        They’re centrists, scared centrists, who recognize that political in-fighting can result in a split vote letting the party with less votes take the election. However in addition to being humongous pricks about it (helping the in-fighting), they fail to recognize two very obvious facts:

        1. Progressives don’t have a candidate. In any party. You can’t split the vote if there’s no other option to split the vote with.
        2. The popular vote doesn’t matter. Hasn’t mattered since the Republican party stole the election in 2000 (if it ever mattered in the first place). There’s somewhere between 3-6 states where the popular vote, if you trust it to be recorded and reported accurately, can swing the election one way or another. In the other 44 states, the popular vote does. Not. Matter.
