Stop supporting genocide.
lmao
Coming from someone who has openly yearned for a Trump presidency?
The blame lies entirely with the party if Trump gets elected. Maybe another 4 years of that lunatic will make them learn. Doubtful.
Try selling this Biden or bust shit to the Muslim-American community who may not turn out in droves to vote for him. Are you going to insult their collective intelligence and question their integrity if Biden fails to get another term? Democrats just take their votes for granted and don't think they have to earn them.
Coming from someone who has been on several weeks of mandatory leave from work because I started self harming in public after listening to yet another fucking horror show coming out of Gaza. I had to be sent home because I was crying and hitting myself.
How do you live with yourself? I'm genuinely curious, because I can barely do it. I've had to stop listening to news in the car or I'll drive into traffic. I'm voting for Aaron Bushnell because they're far braver than me. I hope Trump has a heart attack.
Get a grip, talk to a therapist or trusted friend. It's OK to not be plugged in 24/7. "If it bleeds it leads" is true and being inundated with horror constantly absolutely wears you down.
I'm literally mandated to talk to a therapist to keep my job now.
But I don't think it's okay to tune out. I'm complicit. I deserve to suffer for that. People who tune out are rejecting the responsibility they have to their victims to hear their stories and learn their names. I can't look away, I don't have that right.
You have a terrible therapist.
Children dying under the rubble don't get therapists. I'm lucky I can talk to someone, but I don't deserved to feel better. I deserve to suffer.
But that doesn’t mean the rest of us have to. Maybe take a break for a bit.
The children dying under the rubble don’t get to take a break when they're tired of the genocide being enabled by my government and my tax money. I'll take a break when I'm not longer complicit.
By posting on here instead of doing work to alleviate starvation in countries affected by US imperialism, you're complicit in the deaths of countless children.
Until you unlearn the indoctrination by your 'friends' who've convinced you of the cult of heroism common to fascist and theocratic movements (but I repeat myself), you're never going to be happy or make a difference in the world.

Which makes it all the more insane that you've openly yearned for a Trump presidency.

By doing what I can, and keeping in mind the historical perspective.
Tomorrow isn't going to be a fucking utopia. Even an overwhelming, sudden, and ideologically 'pure' victory won't bring a utopia tomorrow. But we fight day by day, and generation by generation, to make a better world.
Stop supporting Iran, Russia, China and North Korea
No. 😎
Continue supporting genocide comrade
They love Russia, China, and North Korea's stance on LGBT rights. I mean, what are a few murdered queer folk when you have important things like Anti-Imperialist Imperialism(tm) to support?
Do you think Israel's bombs don't blow up queer Palestinians?

Did I say they didn't? But whatever non-sequiturs you need to insert to continue worshipping the torture and execution of LGBT people by your favorite 'anti-imperialist' countries. :)
I'm just supporting the lesser of two evils.
These countries aren't perfect, but I'm not going to let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Isn't that what you keep telling me to do?
Lmao.
As a non-American, I'd choose to live in USA over Russia, Iran, China, or North Korea.
Tankies be fucking delusional.
Yeah, no shit. Imperialist superexplotation of the rest of the world has allowed the US to enrich itself beyond any empire in the history of the world. That comes at a cost! The US is great if you live in the US, but is it great for the children that mine the US's cobalt? Is it great for its prison population, which is the largest in the world? Is it great for the massive undocumented labor force that grows the US's food?
The US "greatness" exists as a great expense for everyone else on Earth. The US can only be great if everyone else suffers.
