My handshake brings all the boys to the yard.

So just accept your place in a broken system, got it. Just go support more increasingly right wing fascist policies and give up on any hope for Democracy.*

Pure strawman.

Pretty sure voting for a write in candidate/third party is, by definition, participating in the system.

You just accept the system is broken and undemocratic and believe others should accept this as well and give up.

You are more devoted to “order” than to justice; you prefer a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; you constantly say “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; you paternalistically believe you can set the timetable on progress and constantly advise the progressive to to wait for a “more convenient season”.

You are the “white moderate” MLK warned of, as is the vast majority of the party, though not for long, as the party increasingly seeks the support of the right to avoid allowing any policy victory for the left.

You are increasingly the Republican party of Cheney, as demonstrated by, not only his support for the party, but by the party and Kamala herself touting the endorsement, rather than ignoring it/distancing themselves.

Alaska has a Republican Governor along with a Republican Majority in the house and Senate, they have no restrictions on abortion.

Does this mean the Republican party is pro-choice or that by voting Republican we can secure abortion rights? The answer is no.

Alaska, a red state, is reportedly trying to remove their rank choice voting. This isn’t a “Dems” problem, it’s a two party problem.

This is a counter to the Democratic party supporters you see everywhere who always get irrationally upset at third party voters, not about Republicans.

The point is, if the Democratic party never plan to address it, then how will it ever get done through voting Dem? The same goes for all the other issues people claim we should ignore in the name of “vote blue no matter who”, including their genocide.

What happened on oct-7?

Edit: This is genocide apologia/victim blaming.

Gaza resistance isn’t to blame for Israels being a genocidal apartheid towards Gaza, and doubly so for the seperate region of the West Bank which Hamas doesn’t even control.

What happened on Oct-7?

Imo It would be hilarious and not confusing if you just used a cutout of the real ron Swanson mustache.

Idk how legal that would be or other solutions around said potential legality though.

Oh no, the Hitler particles have crossed the human toaster barrier.

No. I’m saying that’s how they justify it.

Edit: it seems most people think I ment this was a good thing? No, America isn’t inherently good.

This statement shows how America supports the genocide because America would be willing to do similar slaughter if an attack happened to us (look at our post 9/11 actions for an example of the destruction we are willing to cause). It also shows how she not only recognizes but supports this view.

Do you think America wouldn’t do the same though?

Edit: I never said it was a good thing, just that she said the quiet part out loud.

She literally clarified that she was going to provide weapons for defense from Iran and its puppets,

Yeah, so who are “Iran and it’s puppets”?

• THE VICE PRESIDENT: Okay. So, I just had a frank and constructive meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu. I told him that I will always ensure that Israel is able to defend itself, including from Iran and Iran-backed militias, such as Hamas and Hezbollah.

Who is fighting to stop the Israeli genocide?..

So she clarified that she’s not pro Genocide, she will just support Israels “right to defend” itself from those who actually oppose their genocide.

The rest is empty words and doublespeak. She supports Israels war against Hamas and continued funding of their genocidal apartheid state while they genocide Palestinians.

If she really wanted a ceasefire she would vow to end support if they didn’t cease fire, not keep giving them whatever they want and asking nicely that they stop

I think this quote from Harris in the debate sums up the American support for the genocide. You can’t except the former colonial genocidal regime to oppose the new one they propped up.

And so absolutely, I said then, I say now, Israel has a right to defend itself. We would.

Edit: it seems most people think I ment this was a good thing? No, America isn’t inherently good.

This statement shows how America supports the genocide because America would be willing to do similar slaughter if an attack happened to us (look at our post 9/11 actions for an example of the destruction we are willing to cause). It also shows how she not only recognizes but supports this view.

The alternative is to let certain countries de facto claim a region because others are too afraid to call them on their BS

Who is de facto claiming land? Taiwan has always been a part of China. KMT fled there after losing the civil war and claimed their occupation was rightful rule.

January 1, 1979.

The United States of America recognizes the Government of the People’s Republic of China as the sole legal Government of China. Within this context, the people of the United States will maintain cultural, commercial, and other unofficial relations with the people of Taiwan.

The Government of the United States of America acknowledges the Chinese position that there is but one China and Taiwan is part of China.

We do not undertake this important step for transient tactical or expedient reasons. In recognizing the People’s Republic of China, that it is the single Government of China, we are recognizing simple reality. But far more is involved in this decision than just the recognition of a fact.

The United States approach to Taiwan has remained consistent across decades and administrations. The United States has a longstanding one China policy, which is guided by the Taiwan Relations Act, the three U.S.-China Joint Communiques, and the Six Assurances. We oppose any unilateral changes to the status quo from either side; we do not support Taiwan independence; and we expect cross-Strait differences to be resolved by peaceful means.

Exactly, so we should stop pointing those guns at China and admit that the corner is part of their house, right?

I claim a small corner of your livingroom as my property.

Please don’t make this tense or provoke me.

Do you know the history of China? You just described exactly what the KMT did in 1949 when they lost the civil war lmfao.

Y’all making me hungry for a jersey mikes sub

When I starve myself for a week to be able to buy and consume the new game DLC and there isn’t even enough smut

(╬ಠ益ಠ)

Yep, you’re right that she wouldn’t win and you would be propping up Trump

Actually I’d be propping up Kamala by not voting for Trump.

Considering the vast majority who are protesting against him are doing it for reasons other than seeing Palestinians as people deserving of equal rights. Yes, for most of them.

They’re all colonizers, they’re just arguing over the best way to colonize. The enemy of my enemy is a useful ally, not a friend.

If you read them simultaneously perhaps you would get 100% and avoid the zeno
