OP, per Rule 4, for accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcript in the post body.


Edit: Counting this as a warning for future posts, OP, but since you might not be here to address this, a transcript in a comment as a lesser substitute:

Bushra Shaikh (@Bushra1Shaikh): How TF did Americans vote the clown in, not once but TWICE.

Readers added context

This creator posted on Election Day 2024: "Punish the democrats for their passive response to the genocide in Palestine. If there ever was a party who should have stood firmly against it, we would've assumed the Dems. They proved otherwise. F Kamala Harris. Hope she loses.” [truncated URL to the post here]

Arguing over who would have genocided people the nicest is fucked up on soooooooo many levels.

[-] TheFonz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

I'd understand or join with the lefty never-voting-anti-capitalist tankies if they had a plan, or a strategy, or a goal, or a coalition they were building towards. But there is nothing. No movement, no goals, no aims to achieve political power. It's all virtue signaling. We have people from Syria and Palestine literally begging the lefties to cease their rhetoric because it's causing more harm than good. But the reality is lefties aren't interested in solutions. They want to feel good about their online social media activism and watch Hassan Piker stream from a luxury hotel in Cuba while 90% of the country goes without electricity. That is the peak american socialist movement.

Who guarantees that he is not or was not a paid profile or a far-right troll to deceive naïve?

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 14 points 4 hours ago

This person is an idiot. The american public gave up on their one chance to influence the outcome of the presidency and fucked it up for everyone beyond comprehension, and are now still trying to push the blame on the establishment. Fuck every one of the sitouts and republican voters. You enabled the orange buffoon and couldnt see the threat he represented. Sometimes, when life gives you a choice between lemons and your way of life being destroyed in a childish tantrum, you swallow the fucking lemon.

Gaza and the world thanks you. Fuckers.

They have a two-party system and when they don't like either candidate they throw a tantrum and vote for no one.

Sure the US political system is the most broken of all democratic nations but throwing the baby out with the bathwater isn't the solution either. As bad as Kamala Harris may have been I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have randomly started to war with Iran so does that.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

Actually, a genocidal nation should be thrown out.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 hours ago

I'm glad ghouls like you are suffering

[-] Saryn@lemmy.world 1 points 8 minutes ago

You're here every hour of the day calling everyone with a different opinion than yours "BlueMAGA" or "ghoul" or "genocide denier" while simultaneously promoting political violence and hatred yourself. You're here blaming anyone with a remotely different viewpoint for "virtue signalling" when literally every one one of your last 100 posts is just that - moral grandstanding using the same old tired language and vitriol as the people you're supposedly opposing.

Get a grip. You're nothing but a hypocrite yourself, spewing venom all day everyday while pretending to give a f**k. Pathetic.

I'm glad you're upset, you miserable, lying ghoul

[-] Hawanja@lemmy.world 7 points 2 hours ago

We're all suffering, becuase some people refused to understand why voting matters. And not just us, now millions of people around the world are suffering.
I hope it feels good.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

I do. It's good when bad people like you suffer. And lol at saying now millions of people around the world are suffering. Genocide denying ghoul, glad you're miserable.

[-] Hawanja@lemmy.world 5 points 1 hour ago* (last edited 58 minutes ago)

People like you are the reason the left hasn't accomplished anything of note in 100 years.

I do.

Edit: This is stupid and you're a bad person.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 hour ago

Why would you think that I would be affected by your moral scolding when I already believe that your evil and your morality is non-existent? I hate you, and if you're upset with me: good. I'm glad you're miserable, I think you should be more miserable. Trying to pontificate about morality to me doesn't work because I already know you don't have any, and you only use appeals to it cynically, like the Zionist you are.

[-] Hawanja@lemmy.world 1 points 56 minutes ago* (last edited 54 minutes ago)

Well what the hell did you do to stop genocide? Watch a bunch of tik tok videos about why the latest Harry Potter video game is bad? Get the hell out of my face with this b.s. The truth is you and youre entire movement is ineffectual and you know it.

I’m glad you’re miserable, I think you should be more miserable.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks

You literally cannot imagine someone who isn't you.

The truth is you and youre entire movement is ineffectual and you know it.

Yeah? Well the Republicans seem pretty fucking effectual. Maybe I should join them, if effectual is all that matters. I certainly wouldn't join your completely useless political project.

The lady doth protest too much, methinks

Fucking cringe.

Punishing a politician by electing one who is even worse according your own standards. In my country, this is called "voting for the fox because the rooster is crowing out of tune".

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 9 points 4 hours ago

When genocide is bipartisan consensus in a country, the lesser evil is the destruction of that country

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 3 hours ago

It's the flailing around and hurting everyone else on their way out that the rest of the world objects to.

[-] BrainInABox@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 hours ago

I see no way to avoid that, only getting it over with as fast as possible

[-] tgcoldrockn@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

X as a platform is right wing propaganda. This would specifically attempt to undermine the progressive in the left-centers eyes, exacerbating division.
