The party who funded the wholesale destruction of Gaza is somehow the “less genocide party”.
The funding was passed with bipartisan support, and always has. The funding is also supposed to have guardrails that limit it being used for genocide, and while the Dems are ineffectual at actually enforcing those guardrails Trump has already said that he wants Israel to finish the job and tends to follow through on his worst statements.
Anyone who chose not to vote for the possibility of less genocide (on top of a million other negative things that will come out of a Trump presidency) chose more genocide.

It’s so embarrassing. Both American political parties are enthusiastically pro genocide.

Let’s leave aside all of Kamala’s statements condemning Netanyahu and his genocide for a moment. And let’s instead ask whether you’re capable of perceiving the difference between one genocide and three. That difference is millions of lives. Do millions of lives matter to you, or are they just a statistic, inseparable from the thousands already dead in Gaza?

Talk is cheap coming from a politician who speaks out of both sides of her mouth depending on the audience. She didn’t do shit as VP to stop this so why should voters assume any differently if she was president?
One genocide or three wtf are you talking about? Both parties are EQUAL when it comes to pushing American imperialism around the world. We’re a one party empire and our main export is weapons.

You’re wasting your breath, drag is Lemmy’s morally enlightened philosopher who somehow thinks non-voters are to blame for not choosing to support a genocide, but the DNC is completely blameless in their unconditional support of a fascist committing a genocide because Trump would commit it worse.
Drag’ll likely respond and start insulting your intelligence, will probably call you a nazi fascist who wants drag and all of drag’s friends dead, and then try to explain why not supporting genocide is significantly worse than supporting it.
All while acting like drag’s the ooooooooonly one who understands how the world works, how morality works, how individual understandings of the world may vary from person to person to culture.
And if you write more than 4 sentences, drag will complain that you’re long-winded and taking too many words to “be wrong.” And that you’re writing as much as you are because you “fail to understand what drag is saying.”
In other words, drag let drag’s fleeting popularity due to a post regarding drag’s preferred pronouns give drag the impression that drag is morally and intellectually superior to those around drag.
Aka, drag is a joke, don’t waste your breath arguing with Lemmy’s most enlightened

Drag is talking about 38 million Ukrainian lives, 3 million trans American lives, and 3 million West Bank Palestinian lives. Lives which you don’t care about. Lives you are so apathetic about, you can’t even see them as different from any other statistic.
