      It’s time for the Final Solution. Then Trump and Kushner can finally develop the Jewish Dubai out of the ruins. That’s what he’s getting in exchange for full collaboration.

    I thought we needed those bombs? Didn’t Biden cause the problem by giving away all our precious bombs to Ukraine, not TACO with his Iran war? So I guess the shortage must be over if we have enough to give to Israel. Such a relief to know we are safe again.

      I’m sending my health care! Hopefully I can die quickly and quietly to push that line just a bit higher for corporate overlords. Hail corporate!

    So Israel’s genocidal rampage is more important than winning in Iran, and all the US military over there are sacrificing their lives for no (useful) reason. I don’t get why the right-wingers aren’t more incensed over this crap.

      No, duh! They already won in Iran. Haven’t you heard Dear Leader? Iran’s utterly destroyed and the Strait is open! If you have high gas prices is because that damned Zelensky is bombing poor Russia’s oil infrastructure!

          Once someone accepts hatred into their heart, they’re easy to control, and most of these people have had 20 years of Islamophobia mainlined 24/7.

          They don’t see humans anymore because their brain shuts off at “Muslim”.

          And it’s the exact same playbook used by every fascist. Give them someone to hate, and they’ll let you do basically anything as long as you actively hurt the people you told them to hate.

    Make a list of all the US addresses; When israel uses the bombs, some people should get a letter thanking them for buying the bomb that was just dropped on X location. Would be good for folks to know where their taxes are going

      Huh? Have you not been paying even the slightest bit of attention to what people are saying about what’s been happening here? Almost no one likes what is happening. Most people want meaningful change, just look at the amount of socialists getting wins in the past few months. We aren’t rioting, sure. But we are trying, we are making noise and making progress.

          Nah. Fuck the US government we don’t have control of it. US isn’t a real democracy if it ever was.

          I mean I agree people should vote and do more to stop fascism but failing to do so doesn’t make you responsible for other people’s actions. Frankly if all you’re doing is voting for Harris in this current disaster then you are barely better than a non-voter anyway.

            Yes, it does. If your choices are Hitler and someone you disagree with but who’s not Hitler and you don’t vote, you’re saying that both Hitler and the other person are OK for you. So yeah, you are accepting that getting Hitler as president is fine.

              Or maybe you fell for disinformation or maybe you just weren’t paying attention or maybe you thought your vote was more impactful boosting a third Party candidate because your state wasn’t going to be close anyway or maybe you couldn’t get off work that day and they closed the polling station near your house so it would have taken 2 hours by bus and you’d have gotten fired.

              Lots of reasons people didn’t do the optimal thing around voting. Some of those are more excusable than others but none make you directly responsible for the things Trump and his followers are doing. They are responsible for their own actions. We are responsible for our own. That’s all.

              And again, I personally don’t think we will get out of this solely by voting. People need to stop limiting political action solely to making a largely inconsequential mark on a piece of paper.

        Something tells me the people who participated in the Civil Rights Movement weren’t exactly swimming in money either.

        Do what you can to fight back. Trying to survive is how they want you kept busy. Stop buying consumerist things. Stop shopping at Walmart and target and Amazon. Join community groups. Vote. Attend rallies.

        You personally may already do that bit most don’t. Union membership is down globally. Big tech is taking control and hasn’t had a useful product in a generation.

      We didn’t vote our way into this and we cannot vote our way out of this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlKmWa8p4UM

      Any action you could possibly suggest that could make a major immediate impact would be illegal and would be cracked down upon harshly. People have been protesting the whole time but they’re either ignored or quashed, and it’ll only get worse thanks to the massive AI surveillance state that the parasites get wet dreams about. We can only hope the actions we take will move the needle at some point, but there is an immense force holding up israel.
