He’s not wrong. He’s probably saying it for the wrong reasons, but the statement itself is not untrue.

Democrats can’t actually solve any of the issues they campaign on since the more things they actually solve, the fewer issues they have to make their right-wing, milque toast corporate candidates appear distinct from the GOP.

Doing things like legislating abortion, reforming healthcare, protecting minority rights, fixing our broken immigration system etc. would mean they then have to start looking into the real fundemental issues like campaign finance reform and repealing Citizens United and stuff.

It’s wild for what essentially looks like one of those UE5 tech demos you see on YT.

Fascist fuck is then confused why he can’t scrape together enough votes to beat a felon.

but Trump will stop the investigations we have into Israeli command and groups within the military that we have been sanctioning.

What investigation? We don’t need an investigation, the Israeli command told us exactly what they were going to do before they did it. They said they were going to starve Gazans, they said Gazans were collectively guilty, they said they were going to target hospitals and schools, they said they were lifting restraints on IDF soldiers. The soldiers are literally posting their war crimes to social media. This is some clown cope shit. Don’t talk about this kind of nonsense to me again. An investigation, jesus christ.

What else? We might not have a leader who bothers to wring their hands over the genocide they’re funding? Or let me guess, Trump will send them 2,000 lb bombs instead of 1,900 lb ones.

Just because some people voted uncommitted doesn’t suddenly mean jack shit. You’re letting your feelings dictate reality.

Also you two seconds later:

If those people vote uncommitted in the 24 election (and I’m betting 70% will vote Biden anyways) he is still up 54,000 votes.

Your complete guess that 70% will flinch is not worth anything. And 50k is not a margin of victory that indicates popularity of genocide and it certainly doesn’t guarantee his win, particularly as primaries played similarly across multiple states. Even NYC, where they don’t let you vote uncommitted, 15% of people went out to explicitly leave the ballot blank. 12% statewide. And those are the people who could be arsed to come out, how many people do you “bet” aren’t going to bother at all in November?

Considering your desperation here to try and explain how popular support for genocide is, I somehow doubt you’re as cocksure about how well it will serve as a motivating factor for Biden support as your words try to make out.

in a few elections, being back on the hardcore progressive train

This bullshit doesn’t convince anymore. No one believes this when it’s been 40 years of “just a few more elections and we’ll stop moving to the right, pinky promise lol”. No. This is the end of neoliberalism and of Israel controlling the narrative, one way or another. People see through it.

Biden may indeed try to crash our democracy fullspeed into the wall, but the people persist regardless and they’re stronger than a bunch of empty corporate suits wringing their hands over where they’re going to get their lobby money if things get disrupted. So yeah, I hope you’re ready too, because you certainly don’t sound ready even for what’s already happening right at this very moment.

Badass

Yes, it’s possible to make up whatever statistics you want, that is true.

The reality is most people who are going to vote for him don’t care about foreign affairs or that he’s committing genocide, which is different than actively being pro-genocide. Foreign policy is towards the bottom of many people’s list during elections.

He could stop his support for genocide tomorrow and the “vOtE bLu nO mAtTeR wHo” morons would still vote for him like trained seals. So he has little to lose by going anti-genocide and a lot to lose by cintinuing to support it and alienating huge swaths of his base.

Ok, and if he loses you’d change your mind about the popularity of supporting genocide?

It’s important to understand that the Uncommitted vote already demonstrates he’s losing many swing states.

Kompromat is damaging information about a politician, a businessperson, or other public figure, which may be used to create negative publicity, as well as for blackmail, often to exert influence rather than monetary gain, and extortion. Kompromat may be acquired from various security services, or outright forged, and then publicized by use of a public relations official.[1]

Historically associated with Russia, but Israeli intelligence has been shown to use blackmail and extortion as well. Thus Ghislaine Maxwell etc.

I would think there is something very damaging, likely illegal, that Israel has on Biden to make him behave like such a good lapdog.

In the future, it could power virtual avatars that render locally and don’t require video feeds—or allow anyone with similar tools to take a photo of a person found online and make them appear to say whatever they want.

…or open a dystopian hellscape of disinformation, scams and corporate police state control of information at an unprecedented scale! Three cheers for the reckless pursuit of technology for technologies sake!

My guess would be kompromat. Nothing else is convincingly able to explain Biden’s willingness to crash our democracy into the rocks in defense of the far-right Israeli government.

No, the IDF are child killers because they kill indiscriminately.

The children are not Hamas. The World Central Kitchen workers are not Hamas. The medics, doctors and patients in hospitals are not Hamas. The people cut down while following Israel’s evacuation orders are not Hamas.

Yeah, one lesson we all should’ve learned from the start of the pandemic is that you should have a cache of some basics in your home or apartment that can keep you stable for a few weeks at least. So you can avoid getting embroiled in the chaos of human stupidity that unfolds in public. It won’t sustain you forever but it will give you a chance to make rational decisions.

You won’t get a chance to do that stuff after whatever event is going to happen has started.

The very fact that we have to airdrop in aid and have to build this stupid pier to begin with tells you that it’s not going to work. It’s a delaying tactic so Biden can pretend he’s doing something.

This is the kind of shit you do when there’s an enemy force keeping you from bringing aid into a place.

Lol, wth is this bullshit? We’re past the point of this kind of propaganda having any kind of effect, dude. They fucking double tapped World Central Kitchen workers who were in contact with the IDF to make sure their route was approved.

The IDF are child killers.

They are bulldozing cemetaries explicitly.

There are mass graves where they executed doctors, patients and sheltering civilians.

They’re drawing people out of safe zones using drones playing recordings of screams and cries for help.

Detaining and stripping children as prisoners.

Sniping seven and eight year olds.

What planet are you on right now?

That’s the beauty of it, the deal isn’t for an end to the genocide, just a temporary pause so that Israeli hostages can be exchanged for Palestinian ones.

And then presumably the released Palestinians will be bombed.

As long as they can’t be sent back to fight. Honestly I don’t ever feel good seeing or hearing about Russian troops being killed for the simple fact that I know many of them are conscripts or people scraped out of the bottom of the economic barrel (prisoners, mentally ill etc.).

I remember seeing a video of a guy who was so drunk he literally walked over into the Ukrainian trenches thinking they were his own. Luckily he was taken prisoner rather than shot, but they literally had to explain to him where he was.

I wonder sometimes if some of them haven’t also been some of the young people imprisoned for protesting the war at the start, now used as fodder at gun point. Russia has shown no issue with sending their soldiers on suicide missions to test defense lines etc. A body can have “use” to the war machine, whether it’s willing or not.

The war is righteous for Ukraine and needs to be fought, but I never feel celebratory about the scale of death.

I guess I’m curious if the user submitted products are vetted or not. Seems tough for one guy to keep up with that.

It’s amazing that you must work under the assumption that I’m defending facebook in order for your rambling to have any kind of structure.

No one is defending facebook or FISA or anything else shitty the US has done. I said that claiming Facebook is owned by the government or that the US is totalitarian like the CCP is false and now you guys just can’t accept that fact.

God I thought we left this dishonest tankie shit behind on Reddit. But nope, here’s the brigade of fanatics up to their old rhetorical bullshit.

“Corporate shill pouts about people’s protests of genocide threatening his lobby paycheck.”

No. The government does not own Facebook. You’re free to make that baseless assertion, but there’s nothing to really say about it other than it’s false on its face and makes you appear unserious.

We’re not talking conspiracy theories, China is not a normal country, it’s literally a totalitarian state in which the government has complete control. Not like hyperbolic “Oh, the US is totalitarian.” but actually totalitarian in the legal and material sense.
