You think the Europeans are going to do anything about it? Think again.

If the American President wants to take Gaza by force and turn it into a Mediterranean Vegas, he's going to do it with very little pushback.

Don't act so surprised. We all knew elections have consequences, right? This (among other things) is the obvious and predictable outcome of allowing Trump to win the election.

Alright new atrocity from Israel just dropped, who should we blame:

  • ~~The fascists running Israel~~
  • ~~the fascists running the US~~
  • ~~the democratic party who teed up the atrocity~~
  • a couple hundred leftists on lemmy who didn't vote

Its good to mock those couple hundred people anyway, but to blame them for it is scapegoating. They're obviously kind of dumb but yeah like Joe Biden running for re-election is like probably the #1 dick that Democrats tripped over. Campaigning with abysmally unpopular Cheneys, buying ads on republican media instead of knocking on doors or spending money on dem neutral media, focusing too much on trump instead of on strengths, moving right on immigration all contributed.

2024 was nothing less than a strategic clusterfuck.

Dems should run primaries even when they're running for re-election. Its free coverage and right wing media has to address it.

Clearly it's the leftists, they personally didn't vote or voted third party or voted for Trump or whatever we need to say to deflect blame, and they did it in every swing state! It's their fault, not the candidate!

Look, it's time to take stock and move ahead, we need to focus on the here and now and try to do some good, and prevent some bad.

To that end, I recommend that both liberals and leftists focus on performatively scolding imaginary interlocutors from the other group over semi anonymous forums.

It's the Palestinian Muslim Leftists who have completely overrun our beloved liberal institutions and undermined them. These tankies are the fifth column that brought Harris's glorious march to office down from the inside.

We clearly need to purge our companies, our schools, and our political organizations of anyone who resembles, aligns with, or appears to look like a Palestinian or a Leftist sympathizer.

We absolutely must do this in order to Beat Trump. You do want to Beat Trump, don't you?

I sure do! So we must:

  • Keep COVID-19 away from the public eye as trump wanted
  • Keep Mexicans in cages like Trump wanted
  • Build the wall using federal funding despite several federal laws saying we can't, like Trump wanted
  • Allow the erosion of rights for BIPOC like Trump wanted
  • Allow for the removal of rights for women, like Trump wanted
  • Allow for the removal of rights for trans people in red states, like Trump wanted
  • Fund genocide because it's good for my 3000 year old book, like Trump wanted
  • Boast about how we'll have the biggest military, like Trump wanted.
  • And do nothing to help the population with inflated prices of housing, rent, medical needs, groceries, and say we did all we could and you should be thankful the economy is doing great, like Trump wanted!

Anything else is Dreamland! Why wouldn't I want what Trump stans want? I want to court them so much I'll vote for anyone who's on the blue team, no matter how much they hate me!

I personally can't wait for them to corralled all those men who are trans! They should be punished! They should chop off their dicks. Then I could probably get mine extended uhh 2 or 3 more inches would be totally fine.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

If you expected them to be surprised then you clearly haven't been paying attention to Trump's statements before now.
