That still only counts as one!

Yes, I’m what you would call a communist. Or a tankie, depending on your mood!

I have nothing in principle against people earning a living through dignified, honest, collective labor, with the basics being guaranteed such as housing, healthcare, education, nutrition, energy and a few others.

Which is precisely why wages shouldn’t be decided through market mechanisms

I’m aware, but the situation is still better for Gazans than it was before the ceasefire. Fuck the genocidal state though.

Maybe because the preservation of human rights and life should be pursued regardless of who the President will be tomorrow?

So how is that compatible with the 2+ years of funding and supporting genocide?

the current ceasefire was negotiated by the Biden administration

Source? I feel like you just make this up. It was enacted literally the day before the inauguration wasn’t it? Why enact a ceasefire the day before the inauguration of your political opponent after 2+ years funding the genocide and talking about Pissrael’s right to defend itself and arresting students at campuses for protesting a genocide?

Also, there are a lot fewer Palestinians in Gaza left to shoot, so it would make sense that the numbers went down.

God you guys are fucking vile, trivialising stuff like that and pulling out bullshit arguments. The ceasefire is ongoing, that’s the reason why orders of magnitude people are being murdered, not a lack of Palestinians to be genocided. Nazis ramped up their industrial elimination of “Untermenschen” when they saw they were losing, despite “fewer left to shoot”.

There’s an ongoing ceasefire, trump is all words, but you’d know better if you actually cared about Palestinians more than performatively. The daily deaths are much lower so far than under democrat administration. This is surely not thanks to trump’s good desires for Palestinians, he’s as much of a genocidal ghoul as any American politician, but the numbers are the numbers

Technically it’s actually less, there’s an ongoing ceasefire. Hope it lasts, but no hope tbh, Trump definitely doesn’t care about Gazan lives.

Can’t hear them over the sound of the bombs they send

Edit: to everyone who upvoted the guy below and downvoted me, check their latest comment in the thread. In case they delete it:

Well, you might recall that the funding was approved by Congress, and Presidents should be impeached and held accountable for overstepping those bounds, like how trump was impeached for withholding aid to Ukraine in 2016. Furthermore, Israel is a long term ally, who suffered a brutal terrorist attack in October, and they are in a precarious situation, as their neighbors are not found of their existence, so we have to toe the line between supporting our ally, but also resist genocide and ethnic cleansing. Turns out, geopolitics is not simple.

Well you clearly see it doesn’t work. Saying "there’s someone worse* CLEARLY doesn’t mobilise people to vote repeatedly against fascism. Almost as if, hear me out, fascism has never historically been beaten through electoralism. What we need is to organize in leftist communities and organisations, create dual power structures, protest hard and support labor rights, and struggle against fascism through direct action instead of voting once every four years.

Keep blaming the people who warned you that the democrat strategy of lesser-evilism wouldn’t work.

Literally ALL the things you’ve mentioned could have been fixed by democrats, and 2/3 were actually electoral promises… I dont know how you expect people to keep voting for the lesser evil if the lesser evil is a deceptive and genocidal party

Je ne sais pas pourquoi tu me parles en français. Me podrías hablar en español, oder auf Deutsch auch. I’m not a vatnik, fuck the capitalist modern Russian government, it’s actively oppressing people I hold very dear for being women or LGTBQ. I’m just fucking exhausted of Americans having to explain away fascism in their country in racist terms like “White Taliban” or “y’allqaida”.

Russian-backed

USians try not to blame other countries for their own fascism challenge: impossible version

because people should vote on excitement and engagement, not truth

What part of the genocide wasn’t true at the time of the elections?

reactionary populisms fueled by false promises

Like codifying Roe V Wade? Like closing Guantanamo?

If they have a shred of civil responsibility

Civil responsibility is voting for the party that pretends to care about Gazans while carrying out a genocide and funding Israel.

OP mentions genocide
