Here's the other side that was "just as bad."
I mean… there can’t be an ongoing genocide if they are all dead taps temple
(God I hate this planet now…)
This is exactly what I was saying months ago. And it's absolutely going to happen now. The entire region is going to plunge into chaotic war, and Putin couldn't be happier.
"ex official said: this might happen and that might mean" how is this relevant news?
And these fuckin morons will still say there was no wars under Trump
It does feel about on-brand for this timeline that Trump of all leaders might get the credit for fixing* the Middle East problem.
- where the problem is the existence of the conflict, and the solution of a glassy wasteland littered with charred skeletons will successfully not have regional conflicts for a thousand years.
Continuing the legacy of Genocide Joe...
This is how dems and republicans work together to push state ever deeper into fascism.
I loathe the comments saying some version of "I hope everyone who didn't vote for Harris gets what they deserve". Dem bullying and refusal to stop 100% support of war crimes (including domestic protest suppression/condemnation) alienated a crucial part of their base, but apparently it's still not their fault. Now there's bitter folks here taking a sick satisfaction telling people they're going to suffer and consoling themselves by viciously insulting everyone who didn't fall in line.
Apparently when the horrors happen it's not because Harris ran a shit campaign courting conservatives, didn't listen, and promised more of the same (or even a slide right) as Biden, a president with an approval rating in the 30-40% range. It's not because she refused to promise an immediate stop to support of war crimes as per America's own laws. It's the fault of everyone who refused to vote against their conscience because a "lesser evil" platform didn't convince them to support a party of unrepentant war criminals.
Downvote me all you want and tell me how idiotic I am. I told people urgently to vote Harris right up until the election, but I also always spoke out against bullying on Lemmy and it's only gotten worse post-election. The people in this thread talking about how others are going to get what they deserve are abusive people and I don't want to be associated with them anyways. Their disapproval is something I'm proud of.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
