MODERATORS
Captured Congress, doesn’t matter which side when it comes to Israel.
Sad but true. Democrats are slightly better, but not much.
"Forming a task force" man, go fuck yourself. Do these assholes even know what's going on over there?
Fucking dicks
Dems since the 1970s: "We need a two state solution"
Palestinians: "We're applying for statehood"
Dems: "No"
By "two state" we meant "Israel and Israel".
10 years from now the task force report comes out. "It was a genocide somebody should have stopped it. Let's form a new task force to figure out who was at fault."
The cartoonish evil is a feature, not a bug. The dems have held massive control over who's in power for decades. I don't care anymore if it's evil or stupid to field candidates guaranteed to turn the population right, it leads to the same outcome. They gain enough from having a big persecutin', government-controlling daddy like Trump that it doesn't matter, they have zero intention to change.
"Oh noes, we can't do all the things you poors and empathetic humans want, don't you know Trump is in charge?" (Something Hakeem Jefferies has basically said, referencing the American people making a "mandate" for Trumpism.)
oh they're well aware but like the majority of first world nations, heaven forbid you upset Israel. Just look at the UK. you get arrested for even mentioning or wearing a t shirt with the P and/or G word.
So our choices are Nazi's or genocidal maniacs. Fuck the DNC.
No they're both genocidal maniacs, one also dabbles on the homefront.
The only time Democrats and Republicans in congress can put aside differences is when it's to support Israel or fuck over progressive candidates.
As though democrats do anything else.
as if they are the same, uniparty.
Do you guys think Jeffrey Epstein was the first or the only guy using videos of United States politicians engaging in pedophelia to blackmail them for Israel?
Do you think Tom Artiom Alexandrovich knew Epstein, or his associates/handlers in Israel?
This is why people say during elections that it doesn't matter which partythey vote for
It made it easier for the Nazis to walk in the front door.
There's bipartisan support to keep arming fascists. The nazis are calling from inside the house.
I think the point is that there's Nazis and there's flamboyant Nazis. Aye is pronounced the same on both sides of the aisle, as evidence by their voting records.
To the surprise of no one.
Democrats will negotiate with anyone except the victims of a genocide.
Not true. They will negotiate with anyone wealthy, powerful, and who donate to them like the AIPAC. It just so happens that the victims of genocide tend to not fall into that group.
What about republicans? How did they vote?
Exactly the same as the Democrats. Uniparty strikes again!
Given that it was an internal DNC vote... they didn't
Oh, so now they can stop things. I see.
forming a task force with a diverse set of stakeholders to discuss the matter further
I guess we can just infer what this means...
