Somehow this is Kamala Harris’ fault, but I haven’t huffed enough of my own farts to figure out how

Two years, eight months, four weeks and one day until Trump is finally out of our fucking lives forever.

Because as we all know, the real-life October 7 solved everything forever.

Basically, certain people watched that movie wanting the animals to commit an October 7 and then got angry and disappointed that Mabel and King George supported a two-state solution instead.

There was that too, I'm sure they wanted him to meet a more gruesome end.

Been thinking about this Roger Rabbit comic where Roger rushes home to patty cake the hell outta Jessica

And the goalposts will always move. I think the deaths in Gaza are a tragedy, think Netanyahu and his cronies should be out of power and am opposed to West Bank settlements and violence. Yet leftists have called me horrible because I don't demonize Israelis and I think Oct 7 was a terrible event.

Have you gotten to Matinee yet? I think that's his best film overall.

FFS some social media leftists called the movie Hoppers "centrist propaganda" because (spoiler alert) the animals DON'T kill all the humans.

"There are better solutions to your problems than mass murder" is centrist propaganda to these people.

This does not seem sustainable in the long term.

and I see the circle happening in real time, a lot of people over here (including my family) keep getting bombarded on their timelines by the people advocating for comeback genocide, so they think that's how all the left wingers overseas think.

a huge problem with social media being so integral to our life is that it promotes only the most insane people on either side to the forefront.

You can quibble with and not like economic measures, but if you're just outright rejecting the data you gotta reckon with what that actually entails for our political project.

Once again this is why a world that just rejects data for not feeling true is a world where leftism is dead. Crime is extremely low! But so many people are like "we have so much crime!" And then go right wing over it. Remember this when you're Discoursing.

i have to underline the reason WHY people think crime is high is because there's a massive propaganda machine dedicated to making them think that.

I personally think that having a labor secretary that wants to kill unions is much worse than that time Biden helped rail workers get what they wanted without not getting paid and pissing off the public but what do I know

unless and until republicans agree to a ceasefire in the form of strict anti-gerrymandering provisions: fuck them to hell, squeeze every last drop of blood from the stone, lock them out of every seat you can

Politics is about getting exactly what you want or not participating.

I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.

A reasonable approach to the problem is "in the primaries, push hard for leftist, antizionist candidates who will cut off aid to Israel… but if those candidates lose, vote for the nominee in the general anyways, BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL LESS HARMFUL THAN A REPUBLICAN."

These people aren't reasonable.

See that's a big part of the problem with the lefter-than-thous. They never think big picture, or long-term. They just write a perfect "good triumphs over evil" Hollywood ending in their heads and expect credits to roll with everything solved.

And how the FUCK do they expect the Palestinians to treat the Israelis? Especially now?

They don't care about being complicit, all they care about is whether or not they FEEL complicit.

But none of that matters because Kamala didn't pander to THEM personally, when doing so likely would've cost her even more votes from Americans who've swallowed Zionist propaganda, and there's no reason to trust the leftists wouldn't have moved the goalposts anyway.

It certainly pretty much all falls under that umbrella, yes. Not to mention the USAID cuts and the ICE Gestapo kidnapping brown people off the streets and locking them in concentration camps.

I think the core problem of the online "Because Of Gaza, we must let the Republicans win to Send A Message™ to the Dems" left is that they are more concerned with theoretical purity than with people actually dying!

More Gazans have died under Trump than would've died under Harris. THEY DON'T CARE.

I'm sure most of them don't THINK they want to genocide Israeli Jews (or at least have convinced themselves they don't want that) but I gotta say, I am seriously SERIOUSLY struggling to find an alternate interpretation of "this country full of people has no right to exist." bsky.app/profile/moxi...

God forbid anyone wants a country full of people to (GASP) continue existing.

Yeah, it's an apartheid state. So was South Africa, but South Africa somehow got rid of those policies without ceasing to exist entirely.

First they were angry that not enough people were calling it a genocide. But evidently that's not enough for them either, we have to blame ISRAEL, not just Netanyahu.

Because the only way to TRULY oppose genocide is to vilify an entire country full of people y'see.

I've said it before and I'll keep saying it until it stops being true: way too many social media leftists aren't actually anti-genocide, they just think the wrong people are being killed.
