Most competent and qualified genocider #girlboss 💕. Her form of genocide is much more elegant than her opponent's.
Cool so I assume you're voting for Harris then? She obviously is the candidate who would cause less harm to the people of Gaza and Palestinians in general.
So it'd be pretty dumb to say something like that and then not try to do what you can as an individual to help (by voting for Harris).
You assume correctly! Like you, I am simp-pathetic to upholding the genocidal status quo.
It'd be pretty dumb not to blame anyone except those that nominated Harris, the best and only possible candidate to beat Trump.
It would be outright dimwitted to believe any other course of action exists besides voting to show one's undying loyalty to career politicians who uphold the beautiful and completely non-toxic American status quo.
Feel free to take a break from the endless sarcasm and let us know what course of action you think people should be taking and what would get them to take it.
Circling back to the content of this post, which supposes that Harris has no faults, I suggest and support critical thinking.
This meme comes from a narrow frame of mind that imagines great differences between foreign policy (where none actually exist) between "sides" and mindlessly upholds a corrupt two party doctrine.
The idea that democrats are entitled to certain votes emboldened Biden to proclaim African Americans aren't "black".
Take a break from mindlessly accepting a toxic status quo. Stop showing establishment Dems that they are entitled to votes no matter how far right they are on policy.
This is what I asked you:
You have answered neither of those things. You just told me how you expected people to think. That was not the question. You brought up actions earlier, not thoughts.
You don't actually have any actions for people to take, do you?
You demand hand holding and spoon feeding.
You would never be a useful ally, but I'm sure you will serve the status quo establishment well.
You are correct. Contrarianism does not require allies.
Allies are needed for people who have plans of action, something you lack.
Firat of all, your claim that the original post says that Harris is perfect/faultless, is obviously false. The original post does not make that claim, it doesn't even imply it. So that's a strawman.
Second, your tone of communication strongly indicates a contrarian "holier-than-though" mindset that is typical for teenagers but also people who never grow out of mental self-indulgence. The lack of any sort of substantive argumentation doesn't help your case either.
The original post doesn't idealistically describe Harris??
Your patronizing tone of hypocrisy speaks to an un-loved childhood.
Your inability to recognize a substantive argument is both a personal failing and a projection of your own "contribution" to this discussion.
Obviously people are thinking a lot harder than you. Why do you think you are the first person to realize that the democratic left is actually the rest of the world's far right? Everyone figured that out when they were fucking twelve, so stop believing you are some enlightened philosophical or some shit.
While we here, everyone else has also already realized that third party votes accomplish nothing in the current state of politics. Throw your vote wherever you want, but no party besides rep and dem is getting an electoral so thanks for wasting it. Unless we are all willing to get up, and force the hand of change, that is the reality we all have to live in. Well maybe if you caught up with everyone else you would know that.
Strange how you only complain about her regarding this issue, when drump would 1000 time worse for the Palestinians.
Have you heard of FPTP
The famously least democratic voting system? I am aware.
Google:
Your idea of "winning" is maintaining a status quo of state sponsored genocide with exponentially growing homelessnes.
Those that suffer the most in America will barely register a difference in their lives either way. Meanwhile you pretend a major distinction exists in a corporate duopoly.
How dumb of me to think the election will not significantly change the lives of almost anyone who is suffering in America and beyond.
Yeah, that is not true. One continues with a set of decisions that are actually improving my life, and the lives of those around me, while keeping the status quo abroad. The other, and everyone working with them, have produced a plan for governing that will make both significantly worse.
Just because you sit in a position of privilege, that means the GOP getting their way won't significantly change your life, doesn't mean that is true for others.
I didnt infer that and you know it. Strange how you don't post anything else about being pro-Palestine or raise any other of the myriad of issues they are facing.
So the only valid criticisms can come from whoever passes your vaguely defined litmus test of "posting about being pro-Palestine"?
"Her form of genocide is much more elegant than her opponent's." I'm not sure where you're getting that?
I hope people like you are the first people put in the camps if the other one wins because of you.
Imagine hoping for people you disagree with to "be put in camps" while thinking you're different and better than fascists.
Good to know the military has failed to screen out individuals who support concentration camps.
You sound like a threat to others.
You sound like a potentially radicalized domestic terrorist and an agent of America's adversaries acting against our national interests, and a threat to national security. Your rhetoric and concepts are indicative of potential compromise by FSB and CCP psychological operations, something which may concern the Federal Bureau of Investigation (if American) or the Central Intelligence Agency (if a foreign national).
Go ahead and make a report to the CIA that someone criticized your "dear leader" you cult Kool aid drinker.
Clearly, you'd prefer someone who would attack his own nation's people. Because obviously, that's preferable. /s
Attacking friendlies is bad, except when Israel does it?
No?
