I hate to say it but this is one of many reasons a good portion of the non voting left voted for Trump by not voting.
Fuck you Joe Biden for sending my country off a cliff all because facilitating a genocide was more important to you than providing my generation a future.
Joe Biden is literally the Grandpa in the joke "Grandpa died peacefully in his sleep. Everyone else on the bus he was driving died screaming." Grandpa needs to just shut the fuck up and go away already.
Honestly fuck joe biden, I hope he falls down some stairs
dude how about you go and personally strangle Palestinian kids yourself? just get it out of your system, you petrified leather demon.
Irreverent war criminal supports partner.
no shame
And this is why you lost the election. You never fucking learn, do you?
He, Hillary, and Pelosi need to retire and enjoy doing something else than screwing up with America
If they ever interact with politics again link to this page and strangle them. These three have fucked up enough elections.
People don't learn at that age. Most people actually don't learn that well after their mid-20s.
BTW, I thought they do, until I've read that this is too an autistic trait - one's ability to learn degrades much slower, till maybe 40s. Guess I am a r*tard after all.
Outrageous! How the fuck are we supposed to murder, rob, subjugate, steal, and run our modern-day slave empires if the ICC can just go and arrest people all willy-nilly and shit?
Fuck you, Biden. Shit like this is what just opened the door to Project 2025.
Nope, they lost because they blindly support the billionaires over everyday people. Israel is a tiny symptom of the real problem, which is the concentration of wealth.
Por que no los dos?
Ambos son parte del mismo problema.
Donde esta la biblioteca?
They bailed out the teamsters pension fund and had to fight Republicans tooth and nail to do it — didnt even result in am endorsement and majority of teamsters still voted GOP.
CHIP act made Arizona flush with manufacturing and construction jobs, still voted GOP.
The reason Democrats lose is because they have to campaign against a made-up Republican that is normal and reasonable and Republicans get to campaign against the Oberlin faculty lounge instead of Democrats
Crumbs will not be tolerated any longer. Universal Health, Universal Education, Universal Housing. What people want is clear. The message could not have been any louder. They have trouble feeding their family, and Biden is busy taking victory laps whining about why people can't see what a good job he's done. While rent and food are doubling for the large knot of Americans stuck in the 35-40k dollar income segment.
They don't want to hear excuses, and they don't want crumbs. Politicians have the power to knock down any and all barriers to re-aligning the economy. Instead the democrats chose to play to the upper middle class, and donors. They went sharp right and only announced progressive policies when they were losing ground in the polls. People noticed that and knew those promises were as good as Biden's. (toilet paper)
Yet they never tackled the monopolies in the healthcare, food and housing industries responsible for the cost of living crisis, which cost them the election.
He welcomes Trump with open arms, and acts like a lame duck. But can still get fired up to defend war criminals and try to stop Bernie’s move to block arms shipments. I don’t even know what to say.
And People wonder why the US didn't vote for dems.
Basically the same.
Trump will help Bibi finish off the Palestinians entirely without Biden's modest pretense of pretending to give a shit about a two-state solution
You say what was obvious from the start. Democrats were never going to stop the genocide in Gaza.
He's at the end of his career, doesn't need the money to fight the zionists propaganda, so that means he actually believes this.
OR like I suspected before, Israel houses A LOT of secret US intelligence and defense capabilities
Israel has one base with a radar station that could easily be in Jordan. That's it. The majority of US assets are in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Bahrain.
Yes this. The US isn't shy to back genocides done to secure control of territories held by US friendly regimes. It's kinda their thing really
huh, we wasn't cynically posturing for election purposes, he really wants to die on this hill :/
Maybe I'm soft but I find the dead and starving children to be slightly more outrageous
"Were there not an Israel, the United States would have to invent an Israel to protect her interests in the region."
-- Joe Biden
Israel is good for 2 things, as far as 60% of Congress is concerned: destabilizing Muslim countries to prevent a strong coalition from forming, and donating money to US politicians. What's a little genocide in the face of that?
A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
