Its like choosing the president is a really important decision.

[-] Nalivai@discuss.tchncs.de 20 points 11 months ago

But genocidal Kamala is just as bad! I was informed about it multiple times by accounts on .ml (and not all of them are operating exclusively during Moscow working hours)

I'm sorry, do you have a magical alternate reality viewer that shows Kamala not doing the same exact thing except whinging along the way about "working tirelessly" to avoid the thing that is currently happening with zero repercussions for the aggressor state... ? Come on, don't forget the president that kept warning about non-existent red lines as Palestinians were being (and still are!) slaughtered by the thousands, and literally bypassed congress to send munitions to Israel despite this. Y'know, the thing that will now be super bad when Trump does it?

At least we & our government officials don't have to pretend this is fucking normal just because the president is super duper apologetic about it and pinky promises that they care about all the lives involved but conspicuously only mentioning the ones belonging to the aggressor nation!!!1!

same exact thing

Yeah no.

Biden/Harris would have done something similar to defend Israel from the consequences of its actions. Biden did bomb Yemen after all when it tried to stop the genocide. Biden is a self admitted Zionist and defended Israel’s invasion of Lebanon and supported the invasion of Iraq. Harris did nothing to distance herself from him.

Yeah, in most regards kamala would've been better, but this is Israel. She may have been less gung ho, which would be better for a handful of Iranians benefitting from slightly fewer bombs, but not better enough

[-] Nalivai@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago

Well, there is no real support for a war in the democratic party, democratic party is influencable to some extent, and leader of it has to listen to the party and to voters, at least somewhat. There is no dictator on day one bullshit.

not better enough
This is some prime disconnected bullshit. For people not murdered by bombs it's precisely better enough. This "who cares about handful of randos in some remote country" bullshit is only one click less evil than whatever the current US government is doing right now.

[-] Nalivai@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago

Trump killed more civilians in Yemen this one excursion than the US did in the previous 23 years.
There is bad, and there is this bad. And not differentiating between the two is criminal.

[-] RadioFreeArabia@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

By the time Biden has left office he was already responsible for over 30,000 deaths in Palestine. They are all bad.

[-] Nalivai@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago

By this point, there are only two ways to not understand what the degrees of bad are. Either you really, deeply, powerfully don't give a flying fuck about people's lives, and you see people as numbers you want to use to own the libs or whatever, or you are are so disconnected from reality, you really don't understand what differentiate more suffering from less suffering.
I really don't know what's worse, but both of those possibilities are deeply disturbing. You might feel like you're a good person, but you really aren't.

[-] RadioFreeArabia@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Do you deny that it was a genocide when Biden was president or do you deny his complicity? That's the only way your comment would make any sense.

[-] Nalivai@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 11 months ago

I am trying to convey you one very simple series of principles.
Two things can simultaneously be bad.
One of two things can be worse than another.
It is your moral duty and obligation to ensure that in situation where one or another thing will be chosen, you chose one that is less bad.

Sounds like more should have been done to prevent trump even getting on the ballot while his opposition was still in power. Oh wait, but then they couldn't run on "trump bad" and would actually have to champion something for the people to get their votes. Oh well!
