      I was told if I voted for her we’d be in a war with Iran by now. The person that told me that has since “stopped caring” about politics

                  I vote for democrats straight down the ballot every single time, including for Harris. I’ve never voted for a republican in my entire life. Voting doesn’t work when there are only two sides and they both agree on the same thing like their full-throated support of genocide. The democratic party strategy of “at least we’re slightly better than hitler” is not a winning strategy.

            The US isn’t going to collapse. Its immense wealth and power will simply be wielded differently depending on who controls it. And your preference is to hand that power to Trump, a preference held by other enemies of liberal democracies globally.

          Do you think someone licking AIPAC’s ass would not support the genocide or are you identifying yourself as a bad hasbara bot?

          You’re ALSO assuming that the people who who made that argument were doing so in good faith and ACTUALLY give a fuck about Gaza, and not trolls whose entire MO is to watch the world burn - a proposition I think you’re giving them WAY too much credit with.

              Same. It would have exposed people like you. I also hope the dems will wins the midterm and next presidential election to expose how they was never against ending the war of aggression on Iran

                I said literally the same thing voting for Biden in 2020.

                It did expose them. And yet here they still are, pretending that centrist Dems are in any way different other than the rationales they give for empire.

                I don’t know who is paying you, but the war in Iran MIGHT have happened under Harris, but we know it DID happen under Trump, against the VEHEMENT opposition of EVERY SINGLE PERSON who would still be in power if he’d lost, Gaza is still fucked and EVERYBODY else is doing poorly on every measure too now. Fuck talking about the US - worldwide:

                The environment is fucked, 50 degree summers are a foregone conclusion now, left-wing parties are being stomped across countries where they used to be either dominant or competitive, mass extinction and the most brutal El Nino in recorded history are about to steamroll the planet unimpeded, money that used to be used to protect the vulnerable in countries that were damaged by imperialism is instead being used to build useless monuments to nothing, government surveillance is on the rise in EVERY country, human rights are collapsing in most…

                Even if you’re an ignorant as fuck tankie, even the “socialist countries fighting the imperialist US” are doing demonstrably worse than they used to be, with the possible lone exception of North Korea, so whatever point you think you’re making is laughable.

                  The war against Iran definitely wouldn’t have happened under her. This is entirely about Trump being easily fooled by Nethanyahu and him really really wanting to be a wartime president. It is a very personal war and also why it is extra stupid.

                  Even Bush jr. who started wars left and right was not so stupid as to start one with Iran.

                  Not a single word about the real victims of the war of aggression, theeht but Iranians civilians. You do not give a damn about the war you just use it for your shitty political game

                People who are against genocides like the one in Palestine by Israel, the one in Ukraine by Russia and China’s genocide of the Uyghurs?
