If you can see the way the entire west rallied behind Israel and then conclude that it’s only the US that’s the problem, you just support genocide.

The Lemmy developers explicitly don’t support Putin, but it’s never been above anti-communists to lie about their enemies

How did a slave mongering, genocidal colonial empire ever have potential to make the world better?

Turns out people aren’t going to be that moved by a decade of genocide accusations that still haven’t been able to produce any credible evidence, especially when they’re currently seeing an actual genocide being live streamed in front of their eyes

These are the people complaining about lemmy being “overrun by tankies”, annoying redditers who are angry they don’t get showered with updoots here for mindlessly spouting Reddit catch phrases

No investigation, no right to speak: if you were so uneducated on the subject, you shouldn’t have been confidently making assertions about it, including telling people who are educated it that they’re wrong based on nothing but your own arrogance.

And you given an explanation on why you’re wrong, but you chose not to engage with it because you’re too busy acting like a reddit pseudo-interlectual.

Go back to reddit

“how can you expect us to do anything when we barely even control the entire government. You have to deliver us a permanent one party state and we’ll talk about making some changes in a few decades”

Funny how that’s never an issue for Republicans

the US is just as bad.

*Much worse.

Really, it’s the people in power at each of these “super powers” that are corrupt and deserve to be removed.

Lol, westerners will only every criticize their own governments with the caveat that obviously nobody could possibly be better than them.

Removed by mod

If this means a government “of the people, for the people, by the people” that maintains a monopoly on violence to ensure no one is above the law/Constitution, then I disagree.

Given that the US was never that, obviously that isn’t what it means.

If this means a puppet state that the “elite” holds oligarchal control over, but maintain whatever facade of democracy they need to, then I agree. But I would not call that the US govt.

Incredible. No notes.

But if the structure of “government” that we end up with is completely powerless against them, then it’s objectively not the US anymore

Fucking incredible

Excuse me, sir, although what you said could be true taken straight from a textbook

Oh my God go back to reddit you insufferable dork

That’s not how classes work under any system

“There aren’t many marginalised people if you ignore the ones there are”

Amazing

US elections are always nearing though

Trump is just confirming the reputation US already had

Absolute cringe

Shouldn’t have decided that supporting genocide was more important than the election. Also lol at trying to justify it by essentially complaining “But now it’s happening to actual humans, not just non-westerners!”

There is nothing more careless and entitled than not voting because “both sides are bad”. It’s choosing to let millions of other Americans suffer because someone doesn’t meet your purity test.

“I’m less angry at the Republicans then I am at the people who think genocide is bad”

Just so you understand, you are as evil as the Republicans, and the reason America reached this point is that unspeakable evil is bipartisan consensus.

Yes. It does. Just because you like the left wing ascetic and want free healthcare doesn’t mean you’re not a liberal, and that describes a lot of people here.
