Hamas bad because they kill soldiers within a crowd of civilians.
Israel and pax americana reign of terror good because they kill civilians that supposedly host terrorists without evidence.
People, especially academics, will read and quote Fanon and then denounce any and all indigenous resistance. Goes to show they have just turned everything into a career.
Some of those people said if it was tossup between hitler or mussolini, they would vote mussolini. I don't know whether they got 0 historical illiteracy or legit believe it, either way they giving the veneer away.
I have a legitimate question. I think I have a hard time understanding the argument that I should not vote for Biden because I am operating under the presupposition that there will inevitably only be one of two outcomes: either Biden or Trump will be president. And within those two outcomes, one is objectively worse than the other. So... Why would I not act to hopefully enable the less bad option from becoming my future?
Both parties are nearly fascist. Both support genocide in Palestine and slaughter at the border. Biden has done more against his supposed promises than for. In the end, I don’t care if you vote. It doesn’t take that long, it won’t matter, and you shouldn’t fret about getting out the vote or something. Energy is best spent outside of electoralism, but you can engage a bit if you want.
And how exactly is it better? Both are puppets of capital and will keep the genocide of the Palestinian people and the war in Ukraine moving. Saying the democrats are better is just pure propaganda. After 4 years of presidency, children are still in cages, anti-trans laws are still being passed, working conditions haven't improved at all and Guantanamo bay is still operating... I could go on for ages, but I think you get the idea.
we got some train money and the usa is back on the paris accord and they passed the best climate legislation the usa has (to be clear because i know u dont understand the word "best" it is not good nor enough it less bad than everything else), we got some student loan debt relief. a few good things have actually happened that would almost certainly not have happened otherwise.
To add to what OP said, the takeaway is that people should be taking politics elsewhere, making propaganda, picketing, whatever (of course, it's better under a party, which would organize people in order to achieve some goals, but something, anything, is better than nothing). Electoralism didn't achieve the 8-hour working day.
No they are actively doing great damage to the occupation forces. Obviously we’d prefer that the PFLP was the dominant party, but given how things are at the moment, Hamas is good.
Aren't you the guy who constantly curves the colonized who bring up successful struggle against their settlers?
That's a link to a thread about working class people being more generous about sharing small costs, where I point out that class traitors have played prominent roles in every successful revolution, and should be encouraged.
How is that related to "critical support is the best take, not a blanket endorsement"
Liberals justify supporting Biden as a “lesser evil” to trump. They show hypocrisy in the Palestinian situation where they can see it’s a genocide but refuse to support the resistance to genocide. Hamas is not only “less bad” than “Israel” (the argument for Biden), Hamas is simply good.
Ah comrades from lemmygrad. I constantly wonder if I should block you or not. On the one hand you are some third grade socialists after all but on the other… well
