The fuck? Israel is invading its country with intent to capture territory and Clinton is like, help them take your land?!

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

Are you surprised she supported every single goddamn war of agression the usa did

Israel has deliberately targeted civilian infrastructure and killed hundreds of civilians.

It has openly said it wants to ethnically cleanse the Shia out of Southern Lebanon.

What a piece of shit.

I fucking wish the US wasn't entrenched in this abysmal two-party system.

[-] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 16 points 2 weeks ago

It's a feature, not a bug.

Capitalist dictatorship*, with the illusion of democracy. No different to the USSR or CCP and the illusion of workers owning the means of production.

*you can vote for whoever you want, but when "donations" from wealthy individuals and corporations have already pre-filtered and pre-positioned the majority of politicians, wealth has seized the means of democracy and created what is functionally equivalent to capitalist dictatorship, all but guaranteeing the political class represent their donors more than the entire working class.

More like malware.

Ranked choice voting I believe is a big step to getting away from it. Just that most people don't seem to realize it exists.

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 3 points 2 weeks ago

The people with the power to change the voting system have little incentive to do so. It's quite the catch 22.

[-] theparadox@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Others have been sold the lie that it is flawed and inferior.

I've spoken briefly with some semi-progressive family about it and they immediately dismissed it as able to be "gamed" and therefore a worse system. I didn't get time to really dig into it with them. I was just confused and shocked.

Can these people just not ever shut the fuck up and go away? I mean seriously, fuck off

[-] Zaktor@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 weeks ago

Seriously. They pulled one over on us and had their time as most important people, and in that time fucked things up very badly. Now they're just embarrassing. They could just disappear into a quiet life of luxury and we'd all be better off. It's a lot better than they deserve.

The Lebanese government should join the side of the the country that bombed their capital a week ago???

Why were these people our only two choices in 2016

[-] mrdown@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Hillary always support wars then claim she regret them. Now she wants a civil war in Lebanon

[-] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

My grave disappointment and fury at Hillary for giving away the fucking game certainly is coming to a middle

[-] sad_detective_man@sopuli.xyz 8 points 2 weeks ago

At last! It is once again her turn! Why aren't you clapping?

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 8 points 2 weeks ago

Hillary Clinton is a private person with no official governmental capacity. Wouldn't this be a violation of the Logan Act?

/IANAL

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Leahy Laws, Logan Act, these are all fake terms which do not exist for any purpose except for the facade of a functional justice system

[-] Malyca@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 weeks ago

If she would kindly fuck off back into the forest I'd be so happy

[-] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 6 points 2 weeks ago

Ghoulish POS

[-] fox2263@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

Israel no longer needs help to do anything. They appear to be perfectly self sufficient
