Ignoring that genocide is beyond the scope of this meme, both parties are complicit in providing aid to Isreal, who is the party actively committing genocide against Palestinians. It's important to recognize the difference between not giving a shit and recognizing something can't immediately be done about a situation. Gaza is not on the ballot in the United States and won't be until more left leaning individuals take power in congress. This process starts at the local level, and years before an election is held.

But its good to know that the genocide of my people is less important than the genocide of others. The perspective that two genocides is just as bad as one is absurd. Again, being able to believe that the party of liberals and the party of white nationalists are both fascist parties indicates a level of privilege or insulation from living under a fascist regime.

Yes, both parties commit atrocities and crimes against humanity.

But its good to know that the genocide of my people is less important than the genocide of others. The perspective that two genocides is just as bad as one is absurd.

That's actually your position where you ignore the genocide being conducted by the democrats while talking about what republicans will do to people in US.

Again, being able to believe that the party of liberals and the party of white nationalists are both fascist parties indicates a level of privilege or insulation from living under a fascist regime.

Liberals are fascists, and people who pretend otherwise are the privileged ones who live under a fascist regime and ignore what the regime does. Look in the mirror buddy.
