Uhhhh sorry I'm still going to vote against fascism.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You're voting for polite fascism to stop rude fascism.

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Biden isn't a fascist and you're an idiot if you think so.

There's a lot more to fascism than you just not liking him.

Netanyahu is doing genocide.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

And J'Biden is giving him unlimited bombs and bullets and tank shells to make it possible.

He's also protecting Israel from retaliation from its neighbors and other regional powers.

The genocide would end without US support. You are voting for genocide and I won't let you wash your hands of this.

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

the genocide would not stop without US support… it has been ongoing with and without their support for quite a while….

really, when they’re low on bombs they start just burning buildings….

see also, the history of the Palestine-Israel conflict:

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Without US support the bombing would stop, but more importantly, all of Israel's neighborhoods would be empowered to step in.

The US attacks the Houthis to protect Israel's economy. What happens if the US declares they will no longer protect Israel?

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

israel starts firebombing and nuking people… continues to buy weapons from other countries, and takes over more territory in order to defend what they have.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No country can provide as much military aid as the US, we're number one in the world. This is just divorced from material reality.

They're not invincible demons fueled by blood. It's just a relatively small country. They would never survive launching nukes.

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

what i mean is:
a: they have a considerable arms industry and make quite a lot.
b: they’re quite wealthy and can and do buy weapons.
therefore, it’s not so cut and dry that biden could just stop it….
he sure shouldn’t help arm them, but it’s been going on for quite a while with and without our bombs…

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

They can't make $3 billion in F-35 fighter jets we're selling them, and who else will sell to them? Russia? Unlikely, they're too involved in Syria for that. China? Too involved with Iran. The EU? I could see Germany going for it, but sentiments are turning against Israel there and I don't see that being viable long term.

It's cut and dry. Biden could stop selling them weapons and, more importantly, stop protecting them from their neighbors. Imagine if Ansar Allah could enforce the Red Sea blockade with impunity because the US told Israel "you're on your own lol" and they couldn't get anything imported as long as the blockade persisted.

You have convinced yourself that nothing can be done and use that as an excuse to support Biden's unlimited support for Israel. That's just a cope. The truth is, this is the US's fault.

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

you couldn’t be farther from the truth

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So you're not saying that Biden has to continue to support Israel because there's nothing he can do?

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

fuck no! what the hell is wrong with you?

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (10 children)

You're the one that said the US is powerless to stop the genocide? And if J'Biden stopped supporting them they'd just go to some other country?

You think the moniker Genocide Joe is just a jab? You really think Joe Biden isn't fully complicit?

You're an absolutely perfect shitlib specimen.

[–] cor@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 years ago

You think the moniker Genocide Joe is just a jab?

yes, also it’s stupid.

You really think Joe Biden isn't fully complicit?

he is fully complicit.

you really think it was biden doing all of this for the better part of the last century? he can’t stop it… but he could definitely stop supporting it….

WTF? This is a horrible comic. Republicans in Congress are the ones preventing literally all those things from improving...

[–] Clent@lemmy.world 24 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Each panels requires one to be clueless about politics outside of the right wing bubble. Every single issue has at last one example of Democrats taking action to address the issue.

In what reality are you living in which democrats didn't further fund and militarize police?

[–] lewdian69@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Yeah, I'll give you that for sure. I guess 3 out of 4.

Bruh I got bad news for you if you think trump is going to do anything but help himself.

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago

Who is biden helping

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 16 points 2 years ago

ITT liberals(mainstream right wingers) model the behavior illustrated in the comic

[–] theposterformerlyknownasgood@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Wow 0 comments. That's nice.

[–] CloutAtlas@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There's a whole bunch of .world Americans in the comments.

鬼佬 be out in force.

Don't know what you're talking about, I only see a lovely empty comment section without any comment proving OPs point at all. Really I should have said "First"

[–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And the alternative is? ...Trump?

After 3 years, people still don't understand what he really means for ""AMERICAN"" when he says America First. Spoiler allert: You're not included.

[–] Confidant6198@lemmy.ml 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Claudia de la Cruz from PSL

[–] peeonyou@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

anybody but the two ghouls would be preferrable, but we all know the entire system is broken.. you can't vote fascism out

[–] Confidant6198@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Since you can’t, just vote with your values then; otherwise, one is just making excuses to vote for capital.
