Nothing was going to save Gaza. That didn't mean we needed to continue being complicit. But at least centrists didn't have to consider abandoning netanyahu.
Unsupporting the red and blue party is the correct thing to do and what will ultimately lead to a positive change. The duopoly party narrative is holding on a really thin line because everyone is unsatisfied on both sides, in europe third parties win plenty of times.
If you throw your trash out of the window that isn't going to change world pollution but you don't do that because we live in a society and everyone is supposed to do his part.
Most US elections, in particular the Presidential one, are first past the post and winner take all. There's no coalitions or anything. Only one party can win. If the Democrats, for example, split into a Moderates and a Progressives party, the election landscape will go from this:
Democrats ~50%
Republicans ~50%
To this:
Moderates ~30%
Progressives ~20%
Republicans ~50%
And Republicans are guaranteed a win. The Republicans don't win 50% of the government, they get the whole government. Progressives and Moderates get nothing. The only possible way to defeat the Republicans is by combining the Progressives and Moderates into a single party.
Biden’s help killed more at this time, but Trump should catch up by late summer or early autumn this year. Then we can say Trump killed more than Biden.
But Trumps crimes elsewhere will eclipse this grim milestone , and I doubt most commentators here will remark on that when it happens
I have this idea for a site like a high score thing, where you could (with citations provided) the kill total of world leaders. See how Stalin, Hitler and Mao stack up to Nixon, Bush, Clinton and Trump.
Where it gets difficult to estimate is when people die many years later from the effects.
Even hurricanes are only recently understood to be a huge cause of mortality over a decade later. So where does one draw the line? When support structures in a society are destroyed by nature or man things happen years later.
And then one had to decide how many a leader is directly responsible for, and how many subordinates acting on their own did.
What a strawman of an argument you’ve created. That was never an argument being made, it was that genocide wouldn’t be any worse because genocide is genocide.
And how is this at all different from any of the strikes Biden agreed on that resulted in mass deaths?
Oh and the cake you’re laughing about? Those are children’s lives. Get some perspective and stop reveling in misery.
You're the dude bitching about your elections under every Gaza related post?
I know you think of yourself as the victim, but you're on the trolley and you calmly discussed who should drive instead of stopping it. You suck and you're equally responsible as the others
Yeah funny how you guys always need idiotic sarcasm and mental gymnastic to close the cognitive dissonance of having voted for a war criminal.
Remember all those trolley memes?
You're american. You're not attached to the track. You're ON the fucking trolley discussing who you should sacrifice to go where it's most convenient for you.
Bullshit. It was absolutely an argument being made. "We kNoW BiDeN sUpPoRtS gEnOcIde; MaYbE tRuMp WiLl Be BeTtEr" (paraphrased) is very much the sort of dumbass rhetoric that was being tossed around and don't you dare try to gaslight me otherwise!
