I don’t know who is driving the Gaza protest rhetoric. It’s a question that should be answered. Because the absolute anti-Democrats narrative while simultaneously getting extraordinarily butthurt if anyone points out the Trump/Republican stance (and the fact it’s Congress that votes the Israeli aid) is indicative of foreign-based propaganda that cares NOT AT ALL about Gaza. It’s about getting Trump re-elected. Either that or the people posting here and across social media calling this war a genocide are just plain stupid or really, really feel self-fulfilled by their own anger.

You wanna complain about an actual genocide, look up what’s happening in Sudan as we speak.

The best part is the same people say the other genocide in Ukraine doesn't matter, and its their fault for not surrendering to Russia for peace.

So it really is curious where it's coming from.

Actual genocode as in "what is happening in Gaza is not genocide? This place really lives up to its reputation.

But if you really want to go there, Biden recently named the perpetrators of the genocide in Sudan (The UAE) as a major defense partner to ship them advanced weapons.

American blaming Russia for Trump. Trump is your own creation, deal with it

This breaks rule 2. "No misinformation" Israel is not a 1000 years old it is less than 100 years old

[-] todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago

Nobody said that the state of Israel has been around for 1,000 years, they're saying conflict over the land of Israel (Southern Levant) has existed for 1,000 years. Actually, it's more like 3,000 years.

If your chronology of events here starts in 1948, you're omitting a shitload of context as to why rights over this region are so contested.

the funniest part about this post is that trump and kamala's statements here are functionally identical, differing only in the phrasing.

Please look up Brett Mcgurk before you praise Biden and Kamala's stance on Israel. Literally following Bush era policies in the Middle East.

Completely irrelevant. Nobody prizes it. Everyone just is aware that it's the best realistic outcome that election can have.

Third party is statistically impossible, don't lie to yourself. Trump: see meme. Harris: not as bad as Trump.

Unless you're a reactionary or an accelerationist who wants to see everything burn, the choice is clearly Harris.

This is classic liberal brain worm nonsense.

Blue maga cultists world rather blame leftists than get your shitty candidate in line with her genocidal policies.

It's not a difficult situation to resolve: stop supplying Israel with weapons and support.

[-] BigDiction@lemmy.world 6 points 21 hours ago

In southeastern Michigan I have the luxury of voting for candidates at various levels of government who do oppose supplying Israel with weapons.

In the presidential election, where is the leverage?

What 1000 year conflict? The nakba was less than a century ago. Plus "please stop giving 2000 pound bombs to Israel to commit a genocide with" is a very far cry from "please end the Israeli apartheid state".

Memes get a pass when it comes to outright lies... I guess.

Stop killing Palestinians is such a far left position man. I can't even. Americans are effing weird.

Yeah I'm perfectly fine with not being on the same side as people openly embracing Dick Cheney and weird people can't figure out how being active in genocide is bad.

[-] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

"I'm not going to support Dick Cheney, so I'm going to help the guy even Dick Cheney thinks takes things too far."

And disingenuous people "can't figure out" how not stopping the current weapons sales is still better than giving Israel even more and better weapons and telling them to wipe the place out.

This is not a thousand year conflict. It’s modern imperialism

Another post that makes me further double down on voting 3rd party. It is because of this mentality that not enough people vote 3rd party to make a difference. Also, I refuse to reward genocide.

I would also like to add Trump being worse isn't a good argument because this administration has let israel do all it wants and given them every weapon and funding.

Ah yes, opposing genocide is a radical far-left position. Of course.
