  That wouldn’t have helped this situation

    Do you really think that Kamala Harris and Donald Trump would be equally bad on this issue? Why?

    • kriz@slrpnk.net ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      You can’t get worse than the Biden Harris stance. And there is no way Donald Trump is going to be better. So yeah equally bad.

        Why don’t you save this comment and revisit it in a year.

        This is so fucking naive and ahistoric. Read a fucking book.

        You absolutely can. You can send the US military directly in to finish the job. Or private military contractors. Or stop giving what aid is currently being sent. What doctors are currently there. It can and will get worse with direct involvement.

        Equally bad, you say?

        Well, you’re clearly a very bad judge.

        Lol, I keep joking to people that my side is dumb enough to believe the two are equal on that and every day one of y’all proves me right.

      Because supporting that genocidal white supremacist colonialist project is US POLICY.

  Israel’s extermination campaign is already underway with full support from the Denocrats. Harris wouldn’t have saved the Palestinians.

    Kid, you should try reading things by actual, paid journalists, who aren’t just contributors to free online “news” sources.

    Or good books.

    • Sundial@lemm.ee ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      I’m not a kid and I’m not wrong in saying the genocide is currently underway with full support of the Biden administration and the overall Democratic party.

      • Lauchs@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Both claims are debatable.

        Do you think things won’t get worse under trump? Or do you think some 50,000 dead a year is the worst Israel can do?

      Don’t tell other people to read anything when it’s perfectly clear you don’t know what the fuck you are gibbering about.

      You should read a few good books as well. Might I suggest:

      On Palestine by Noam Chomsky, Ilan Pappé, and Frank Barat

      The Message by Ta-Nehisi Coates

      A Dying Colonialism by Frantz Fanon

      Manufacturing Consent by Noam Chomsky and Edward S. Herman

      Actual journalists like Mehdi Hasan at Zeteo and Amy Goodman at Democracy Now! are doing excellent work on this issue.

      • Lauchs@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        Manufacturing consent is one of my favourites!

    Don’t tell the liberals that. If you spook them now, they might start “reaching across the aisle” today instead of next week.
