Full of gems like: "Don’t dismiss their anger and pain. For people who consider themselves progressive, the war in Gaza with its high civilian casualties can create a strong sense of turmoil, disillusionment, frustration, and even stronger emotions like fury and disgust."
How to know if you're progressive?
- Does the
genocidehigh civilian casualties of brown people frustrate or disgust you?
Here's the article if you want to lose some brain cells https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/biden-gaza-israel-2024-election
Genocide Joe supporters seem to lack basic human empathy or morals.
Disturbing
Are liberals learning what principles are for the first time? lmao
This article seems so close to getting it, then decides that it doesn’t matter actually and they’ll definitely be able to convince anyone who has uttered the term “Genocide Joe” to vote for him anyway.
supports genocide
but he's a good man
Too heavy handed to ever be something penned as satire, but is our reality
But this rarely works because 1) in their mind, nothing could be more evil or harmful than genocide
How can someone possibly write this and not second guess themself? Yes, genocide is indeed pretty much the most evil thing.
"They failed to consider that Tronald Dumpf will enact TURBO Genocide!"
Have you considered that Joe Biden is a nice man?
Yeah, nice men are easy going …
the war in Gaza with its high civilian casualties
we are reaching new levels of passive voice
the occurrence in the world where civilians stop
I seriously want somebody to ask a notable super-lib like Takei - how much suffering and genocide would it take for you to stop supporting Biden. 75,000 dead - plus a corresponding number of injured and missing which means probably dead? If not that then 100,000+? 125,00+? 150,000+?
Doesn't he have a comic about how poorly japanese Americans were treated? Guess it's okay if it's happening to Palestinians not him
I assume that he has American exceptionalism brain even though he and his family were put into a Japanese internment camp.
not him
Sympathy is so simple. Just look at those poor people and how they are suffering.
Empathy is anything but simple. I could be one of those poor people.
It will never fail to amaze me how many people are pathologically unable to move beyond sympathy. They have a defective or nonexistent sense of empathy and I don't think it can be mended.
“But Trump would kill 50 quintillion so you have to vote for Biden.”
So it's okay when Israel does it George? https://www.topshelfcomix.com/mobile/catalog/george-takei-they-called-us-enemy/1011
Or cause it's not happening to you directly...
They always take this preachy, condescending tone like they're lecturing a child about right and wrong.
Liberals, please understand : not everyone shares in this idea that you should get to assume a moral high-ground by default, especially on the issue of minimizing an ongoing genocide to try to pressure people into voting for a candidate that is shitty even aside from their material support for that genocide.
Liberal proselytizers come across as deeply repellent in general, and this behavior only makes it worse.
Nice guys logic cranked up to 100.
listen fat, the only thing that can stop a bad guy doing a genocide is a good guy doing a genocide
