And once again, as the foreign trolls that are busy courting our youth want, not one comment in this entire thread mentions that Europe is on the brink of open modernized war should Ukraine fall to vlad “Ukraine is just a stepping stone” putin.
Gaza is a genocide, but that is not the critical geopolitical stage to be paying the most attention to. Once again it is completely ignored that the heads of hamas who attacked israel on oct 7 knowing exactly what they were about to cause are friends of putin.
The Gaza genocide was provoked precisely to pull western eyes from the Ukrainian front where russia was more than underperforming to ensure their victory in a sustained war of attrition.
You want to avoid a world war? You vote for biden whether u do it proudly or do it holding ur nose the way most of the sane will.
The Gaza genocide did not start on Oct 7, much like the Russian incursion on Unkraine did not start in Jan 2022. Both of those are tremendous blights on human rights and should be equally condemned.
Of course, voting for Biden is the only stable option as much as one may lament that it shouldn’t be.
The other candidate will also support the Gaza genocide. Again, it’s unfortunate that both candidates are evil. And supporting the lesser evil is a bad long term strategy.

This is very very true, and i didnt mean to imply otherwise. Ive been hating on the apartheid state in israel for a very very long time now, and as someone born in Poland, i need no reminders of the evil the russian state causes both at home and abroad. I highly appreciate the added clarity, i should have been more clear in the first place.

Theyre both deserving of equal condemnation insofar as both are crimes against humanity, but the one is a much more slippery slope towards more genocide than i think many in the states realize. Russian imperial sentiments towards Poland, Lithuania, and Finland (of the very next in line) have been painfully clear to anyone paying attention to the past 100 years of history, and doubly so to anyone aware of “Foundations of Geopolitics.”
Im not trying to say that the death of one group is worse than anothers, but i am saying that one conflict is a direct precursor to (for the modern age) unprecedented levels of death and destruction.
I am also willing to elaborate that sucking apartheid israels proverbial dick is something the US has been doing since before most of us were born, and that bidens stance on israel is less than par for the course in that hes the first head of state to outright say things like, “maybe israel should hold new elections bc of how fucked up their treatment of Palestinians is.” Thats less than anyone wants or especially needs, but it does show represent more wavering from democratic leadership than one would expect. It also is further proof that the lemmy trolls telling u that the dems are getting more rightwing are full of it. We’re on the cusp of the reins being passed on from the old generation onto the new. I agree biden shouldnt be the choice in a sane world, but a sane world it is not, and we can hope for far more with the boomers coming out of power so long as our democracy isnt just pissed the fuck away.
Or at least Biden to reverse course and admit supporting Israel isn’t worth the possibility of losing the election.
Liberals and moderates love to tell us about the choice in front of us between Biden and Trump. But they ignore the choice in front of them which is supporting Israel or losing the election.
The onus to sane action is on everyone. Israel is in the wrong no matter which way u cut the pie. It does not mean that ignoring whats happening north of israel is validated bc the apartheid state is acting the way it always has.

Only stable option is supporting genocide? Do you hear how you are evil?

But, here we are.
There is no path to success here. Moderates, liberals and Joe Biden have made sure of that.
You vote for genocide. ✅
Very nuanced take. Really appreciate it.
Or in your style.
Your comment: 🚫🧠
You can insult all you want; I don’t care what a genocide apologist thinks of me.
honestly that is a really attractive trait

If what you say is correct, then it would seem that the onus is on Israel to stop the genocide in order to save its European benefactors.
Or at least Biden to reverse course and admit supporting Israel isn’t worth the possibility of losing the election.

Of course you reduce the voices not believing ur “two sides” bullshit to ill fitting buzzwords.
And there is no choice between supporting israel or not, but there is between all out war and its prevention.
Per the usual tho, youve a vested interest in keeping Americans disinterested.
The onus to sane action is on everyone. Israel is in the wrong no matter which way u cut the pie. It does not mean that ignoring whats happening north of israel is validated bc the apartheid state is acting the way it always has.
Then the sane action is to not support and enable Israel, and not support its enablers.
If you live in the USA, you inevitably support the government. Not voting supports the greater evil, voting supports the lesser evil.
So vote, and organize anarchist enclaves, or socialist groups, or justice NGO’s. Sink or swim.
Yeah, October 7th had nothing to do with the war that Israel was performing on Gaza before that. It wasn’t all about Ukraine.
Nobody said that. Absolutist BS like this leads to dogma.
The *@#$ above me said that Oct 7th was all to take attention from Ukraine. I’m saying that’s stupid.
