I am not American, nor the person you responded to, but in 2020 the Democrats won the white house, the Senate, and the House of Representatives.

As an outsider looking in, why is there the expectation that Kamala doing it again in 2024 will have a different result?

If they plead guilty to avoid being sentenced to death are they actually guilty?

“I’m getting my head bashed in by jackboots!”

“Well if it was Trump they’d be using baseball bats. If you vote Biden in, we’ll use runners next time”

Couldn’t we just outlaw foreign interference?

I’m just surprised it took this long. I guess we were never able to document Israeli war crimes in real-time before.

Enemy combatants in the kibbutz

Were they in the refugee camps?

Because they are. Unless you have proof they were not.

This opposition doesn’t even make sense. Isn’t the whole point to increase the flock?

It’s a war, they’re both allowed to attack each other

Ehhh not exactly. We describe it as a war when Israel is doing the killing (37k civilians dead) but we describe it as a terrorist attack when Hamas does the killing (<1000 civilians dead).

the two sides are not equal

You’re not wrong

Do the Palestinians have a right to defend themselves? Or are we just going to call any retaliation “terrorism”?

Obviously the solution is to have a separate trans Olympics.

/S

It’s sad that it needs to be said. People on both sides have tried to justify one or the other.

You can be sympathetic to the plight of the hostages and be against Zionism and the Gazan genocide at the same time.

Does Hamas exist in a vacuum? No. Does that justify kidnapping hundreds of civilians? No. Does that justify the murder of thousands? Also no.

You mean we’re expected to know that Neapolitan is in reference to Naples (despite the ice cream not being from there) and doesn’t relate to Napoleon at all?

They get put up in hotels.

We’re focusing on him using a homophobic slur, but we’re ignoring what the meeting was about: that he doesn’t want gay men in the priesthood.

This makes sense. It’s also a lot easier to drop a bomb on the faceless brown people half a world away. It takes real hate to beat up an unarmed person by yourself.

This is the hatred they have for Americans. Now imagine what they have directed at Palestinians.

It’s a shockingly capitalist move tbh.

China in its current form is fairly capitalist - they are socialist in name only. This isn’t shocking if you remember that.
