If they do, .world is where the party is gonna be.
Huh? How do you figure that?
Most of the lemmy users who spent the last year of the biden presidency shouting abuse at people who opposed genocide are on .world
.world is pretty unanimous on opposing genocide. How do you define "shouting abuse at people who opposed genocide."
Here, watch. The biden administration had no business selling weapons to netanyahu when it became clear that they were being used to commit genocide.
Completely agree, and would like to add:
With all of the info coming out about Biden basically being puppet-stringed through those last few years, I think it’s safe to say anything he “approved” was basically putting a stamp in a sleeping person’s hand and using their arm to stamp the paper.
Soooo…..who ACTUALLY called the shots, made the plans, etc, with regard to Israel policy?
That’s what I wanna know, like, yesterday.
Well yeah. Pretty much everybody agrees that Biden didn't help, allowed the weapon supply to continue. Trump is worse. Kamala would have been better but not good. I don't think any of this is particulary controversial. The election wasn't really about the Democrats being better, they just suck less.
Not on .world.
Yeah, no shit.
She literally said she didn't differ from biden on the issue.
It was on .world. And now you're pretending otherwise.
Gloat more that there is no anti-genocide party.
Yes, yes. We've already moved past the Democrats sucking.
You think I'm gloating? You think .world is full of people that support what's happening in Palestine?
That's pretty far from reality as I'm experiencing it. You do seem to be trying to goad me, which is cute.
So, do you really believe that .world is like full of a bunch of fascists or pro-genocide types or whatever?
Yes.
I think they have a higher percentage than any other instance.
If you don't speak out against genocide, you don't see how genocide supporters react to it.
What do you think I'm gloating about?
I don't support genocide other than in that arbitrary way we all do by purchasing goods and services sourced from a global economy.
You seem to be seeing things very black and white when it comes to people. In this case, as regards to people that use .world.
You do realize that black and white thinking is probably the biggest factor that leads to genocide?
This is true for the people that actually perform the genocide and support it. I.E. powerful people manipulate media and propagandize everyday folks until they hate that other group of people and want them dead and then go out and kill their fellow man over that difference.
Like, I can draw a direct line between your behaviour and the behaviour of those on the far right. You're making an entire group "The Other.
We all know where that leads when we let the powerful program our thinking.
Straight up, what you're saying here makes you sound like either a troll or a propagandized true believer.
I'm not trying to be insulting but I am being blunt. You should really think about where you're getting your facts and opinions.
I'm straight up telling you that something you're consuming is lying to you and warping your perceptions of your fellow people.
And right here is what I'm talking about.
How is that what you're talking about?
Sealion someone else.
