If you can't convince most people that you'd do a better job at something than Donald fucking Trump, that's a 'you' problem
Lmao. It's not. Democracy requires informed voters. Americans have shown they're anything but.
Have fun blaming the democrats while republicans burn down the country.
We blame both unlike you immoral cultists
I'm not American lmao. We're just laughing at you from outside.
Anyway, who did you vote for?
Expected from immoral people like you laughting about palestinians misfortune killed by weapons send by both democrats and republicans
@ihatemycountrymen@lemmy.world is right. Keep whining about Palestine while your own country is dismantled. Why aren't you as concerned about Rohingyas, Uyghurs, Sudanese, or Ukrainians? Or American women, LGBTQ+ people, or other minorities?
Cause you're too dumb to realize how Palestine was used as wedge issue to spread apathy.
Anyway, who did you vote for in the US presidential election 2024?
You are okey with israel doing it's final solution, i guess you would have supported not intervening in the holocust.
Talking about sudanese, israel armed one faction .Another usa allies the UAE is arming the RSF. Talking about china genocides , israel, the vessal state of the united snakes is a great trade partner of china.
Ukraine still have an army to defend itself, it rightfully still getting billions to defend itself. Russia being terrible and genocidal don't change the fact that they didn't starve the people they oppressed and ask all ukranians to leave or get killed
You using other conflicts to defend your genocidal cult is disgusting. You literally borrowed an israeli talking point
I am not an amerian so i didn't vote for neither. I voted for the party in my country that really support palestinians and oppose the genocide
Eat a bag full of rusty nails tankie.
