  • Which is a separate question, especially to the ones who mistakenly think that Israel isn’t to blame for the genocide or that they’re not the only ones perpetuating it.

    Then how the ever-loving fuck is it a relevant question to the issue of Biden’s policy of continuing aid?

    To get through your thick skull that some people have a favorable opinion of Israel in spite of being against their genocide? Yeah. That it’s not working is entirely due to your seemingly willful resistance to simple logic.

    So… people like, say… Joe Biden?

    An unmitigated disaster. One that the person you were addressing didn’t advocate for at any point of this conversation.

    Why don’t you go ahead and ask them who they’re voting for? I’ve had enough encounters with Hark to know their song and dance.



  • Yes. Most people want to vote for the outcomes that they prefer and most people want the genocide to end. Ergo most people would vote for an end to the genocide if given the opportunity.

    In the minds of these people aiding Israel will either stop the genocide or not necessarily have an effect on it. They’re wrong, but still against the genocide.

    So under that logic, Biden, who has expressed opposition to the ongoing operations but continued funding it, is also anti-genocide in the same vein that these voters are.

    You’ll have to forgive me for not finding that a very ‘anti-genocide’ or ‘changing what we’re currently doing’ stance.





  • I didn’t realize “Your poll is older!” is a response to “Your poll literally doesn’t say what you claim it does”.

    Even disregarding that, it’s interesting that you’re trying to paint a one percent difference between the favors and opposes as “majority of Americans”,

    Funny, if you go back through our comments, the only person claiming that a majority of Americans would be voting for or against something is… you.

    Huh. Weird. Almost like projection is one of the few tools you have.

    But sure, 36% is a majority. Great math you have there. Like the math the Italian fascists used to ‘make the trains run on time’.


  • It’s amazing that you post the screenshot and STILL don’t read it correctly. Here, let me remind you of what you originally said:

    If ending genocide was actually a choice on the ballot instead of two ghouls who both support genocide, I bet most would vote to end genocide.

    Thinking most people would be against genocide is spreading misinformation?

    But fascists aren’t well-known for their stunning memory of what they said in the past ten minutes either, so that’s not a surprise.

    Of course, the fact that you explicitly advocate for voting for a genocide of American minorities makes this position, in context, utterly unsurprising.





  • Proceeds to make arguments justifying genocide

    “Justifying genocide is when you oppose genocide, and the more you oppose it, the more you justify it” - Very Serious Lemmings

    Alternatively, “The prospect of an eventual violent revolution justifies genocide” - Very Serious Lemmings

    Or more realistically, “I think that the prospect of virtue signaling without affecting government policy justifies genocide, because that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside” - Very Serious Lemmings





  • I only clarify because in a situation where every able body is fighting you’ve already lost, there needs to be logistics, maintaining utilities, growing food, etc

    Conscription is actually a way to ensure that. In the Ukrainian War, as well as at least the US during WW2 (I’m less familiar with other countries’ conscription systems during WW2), conscription is used to prioritize those with skills which are not economically vital during wartime - during WW2, even, some skilled workers weren’t even allowed to volunteer, much less be conscripted, for military service.
