          Let’s be real, Israel was gonna do whatever the fuck it wanted anyway. The ceasefire was bullshit and now people are so focused on the orange clowns bullshit that soon there won’t be any Palestinians left.

          That’s a good sentiment which should be encouraged. If more Americans had that base level of compassion we wouldn’t be here now.

          Decades of trading death and destruction globally for comfort at home built an America ripe for the taking by the likes of Trump as he simply had to capitalize on the sentiments created by that “us at the cost of them” system better than Kamala was able to.

            Um. Many did, and we are here. Possibly as a result of that “compassion”. The lesson is that single-issue voters will sink the boat they are in and achieve nothing as a result.

            Imagine not “voting for genocide” and not only getting more genocide but also a trade war with the entire world.

            I hope you can buy eggs with “principles”.

              Trump tower gaza coming up next. Thanks to Jill Stein, Rashid Tlaib and Kshama Sawant. Genocide will be solved since there wont be any Palestinians left. Brilliant move by Pro Palestinian reactionaries. Bravo Rashida, Kshama and Jill. Bravo

      No, but you’re the ones that have to fix it. We can’t do it for you.

      On the one hand, I want to have sympathy for the suffering of my American neighbours.

      On the other hand, you dumbfucks let THAT guy get into power… TWICE! I’d be disappointed if it was just the once, but TWICE!? You people saw how bad it was the first time, and voted for another round. Hearts out to the people who are suffering, but clearly this is what the majority of you want, so I can’t feel much sympathy anymore.

        He won the popular vote by less than one percent. That’s not a majority of people. It’s also less than 35% of the population.

          36% of the eligible population didn’t vote and that can only mean they were fine with both Trump and Harris. That makes 71% of the population - the majority of the people.

            nitpick: not everyone who wanted to vote always can vote (republican-led states tried to greatly reduce polling stations, mail-in voting, etc. ahead of elections), but it probably doesn’t move that number by a ton.

      With “we didn’t vote for it”, do you mean you voted for Kamala Harris, or did you vote third party, or didn’t you vote at all?
