crazy how there is only one political opinion in the entire United States federal government on this issue, which is "yes, I eagerly support genocide"
like look at this shit, there are over 400 representatives and every single one of them agrees on this issue: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-resolution/888/all-actions?overview=closed&q=%7B%22roll-call-vote%22%3A%22all%22%7D
tlaib was the lone 'present' and a republican voted no lmao
and yet it's sooooooooooooo important to vote so that my views are represented!!!!!!!
- “yes, I eagerly support genocide”
  "There is no genocide, but we still eagerly support it, and they deserve it"
  
  It didn't happen, they deserved it, we will do it again.
- okay who the fuck is thomas massie and why isn't he getting in line? is he just some rando that accidentally got the job and hasn't been sufficiently disciplined yet?
  
  you do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to a libertarian US senator. he supports Israel's "right to exist," he just doesn't think it's antisemitic to disagree. average libertarian contrarian tantrum where he affirms all the premises of the institutions but rejects one of the conclusions based on a piddling technicality, thereby ensuring that everyone yells at him and he preserves his outsider veneer without actually having to affect anything or stand for something.
  basically the right wing version of Bernie.
  from a comment by @HumanBehaviorByBjork@hexbear.net
  
  he's a libertarian anti-war type.
- Israel doesn’t run America bruh
  America willingly supports it
  
  Israel doesn’t “run” America.
  At most you can say their lobbyist have massive influence on this issue.
  
  "Israel" does exert influence but American bourgeoisie is the dominant partner in the relationship
  America is a partner in this genocide because it views "Israel" as a key pillar of US hegemony
  
  israel truly truly runs america. how can anybody deny this reality? when presented with all the facts what other conclusion is there to come to?
  This is like saying Azerbijan runs Turkey. You can say this has "nothing to do with Judaism" but that is were this train of thought has to go if you seriously think that this is a separate thing.
Damn what do they call you when you deny a holocaust again?
- I can't remember, I think it rhymes with Kamalacaust Denier
  
  Kamalacaust
  gotta boost that phrase
How to Throw an Election 101
- Hundreds of thousands of uncommitted voters in swing states: Please place value on Palestinian lives.
  Harris:
  
  Excuse me im talking.
- Nah, the Dem base does not place any value on Palestinian lives and they have no patience for anyone who does.
Wow, she briefly sounded like she maybe wasn't completely denying the genocide she's helping to perpetrate and the campaign had to walk that back.

Today the Youtuber BadEmpanda released a video titled "Genocide: The Dumbest Crime (Why There's No Bosnian Genocide)" and the premise is more or less that having the technical classification of Genocide often has been used to take away from discussion of the actual atrocities and instead debate whether something is technically Genocide or not. And obviously any reasonable person would consider this a Genocide, but it did make me think of how ridiculous something like Kamala talking about her opinion on whether killing at the very absolute minimum 40,000 people fits a definition instead of having to justify why she supports the deaths of 40,000 people.
- "I hear you, I sympathize, but... According to Webster's dictionary...."
  "... And that's why we give that protester 4 Pinocchios."
- I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Kamala: “how can you trust your eyes if they lie to you?”
Holy shit the video at the end. I rarely hear these people speak as I really just prefer not to. So uh, y'all weren't lying when you said they speak like we are the good guys in a marvel movie. How do libs take this shit seriously when the shallowness and hypocricy of their words is so blatant?
- which video, the "first and most tragic" statements in the last link?
  
  Yes, that video, all of it really.
- To be fair, the US government was the bad guys in the earlier marvel movies (x men)
