So I guess genocide is an American value, and if you oppose genocide then you're unamerican.
Just another data point indicating that I have never actually been American, and I should have no loyalty to it.
As an indigenous person, duh.
You just have to look at US history to know that we're pro genocide. Hell, we were doing it just a few years ago to asylum seekers.
Doing it a few years ago? The camps are still open...
Settlers built this country off inordinate amounts of slavery and genocide; this has always been the score. Why do you think they're so gung-ho, brook-no-dissent about genociding Palestine? Israelis are just Junior Americans at this point.
That's what I've been telling people who say "I won't vote for someone who supports genocide:" This is America. All our politicians support genocide. That and "more jobs" are the only things both parties agree on.
If you want to vote for someone who isn't pro-genocide you're gonna have to move, or get used to never, ever, ever getting what you want.
Yes, it sucks. But there's literally nothing we can do about it unless you want to get a degree in physics and build a time machine and sink Columbus's boat before he sights land.
I just write-in at this point, every single time. As many members of the Wu-Tang Clan as I can remember for however many slots there are. Because I staunchly am a "no genocide" voter-- and there's nothing that brings me more pleasure come election season anymore than cheesing in the mugs of every settler liberal, elephant-red or ass-blue, who thought they could cudgel a pencil-whip for their mass murderer of choice out of me.
Might transition to writing in Dipset members though.
They only agree on that in public, while in private (with a few exceptions) they are fine with the Federal Reserve raising interest rates to induce layoffs to ensure workers are too scared of losing their jobs to demand raises.
I served in the Army and I think this country is a festering shithole of privilege and corruption. I don't stand for the stupid national anthem, ever.
I stand, but I sing The Internationale instead.
