It would have been uncivil - and as we all know, the most effective way to fight fascism is by letting them run roughshod over you while smugly pointing out how correct you are, and that they’re breaking the rules while adjusting your policies to be a watered down version of the fascists, exciting the fascists, liberals, and leftists at the end time.
If the Dems get another election and don’t pick a left populist like Sanders, they’re finished.
Scratch a liberal…
What’s going on with MTG right now? Release the results of the congressional investigations, allowing the crooks and paedophiles to be driven out as the cripplingly stupid welfare queen red states seceed to starve as the blue states enter an era of prosperity… Broken clocks and whatnot, I suppose.
In markets the typical response to a sudden shortage is an ________ in ______, leading to a reduction in demand, as the demand shifts to alternatives (other destinations, non-consumption) until a new equilibrium is found.
That’s right - an increase in pricing reduces demand by pushing people to alternatives, reducing demand.
Policy is not to arm countries blocking humanitarian aid - this is just sparkling aiding genocide.
Thanks for playing, Rudolph Jitler, but no prizes for a performance like that.
That’s not a reason to continue to actively fuel a genocide.
Why did Netanyahu sacrifice Israelis to refuse multiple ceasefires and hostage exchanges?
…but more relevantly, for the 4th time, you genocide defending piece of shit, why did Israel fund Hamas’ displacement of the secular moderates with predictable results?
There’s a reason you’re refusing to answer the question - it’s perfectly clear that Netanyahu is willing to sacrifice Israeli lives if it means that he can kill more Palestinians. You keep stating the obvious in an incredulous tone because you don’t have an alternative explanation - there isn’t one. You tell us you see the truth, then get all shy about it.
Go cheer for more dead Israelis, ya antisemitic piece of shit.
People have run the numbers on this - Bezos is far richer than even the greediest dragons sitting atop their mountains of gold.
We’re overpopulated given our current resource distribution/consumption, but solving that through eugenics is obviously moronic.
For the third time - why did Israel fund Hamas’ displacement of the secular moderates with predictable results?
Kill the Palestinians, take their land - you know - exactly what they’ve been doing for decades, and were able to dramatically accelerate after October 7th.
What’s your explanation for Israel funding the terrorists’ displacement of the secular moderates with predictable, deadly results?
What - you think Netanyahu cares about Israelis given his refusal of ceasefire after ceasefire and hostage exchange after hostage exchange? How quaint.
Seems straightforwardly clear that it was to manufacture the pretext for the current genocide.
What confident ignorance that would be overcome with any research whatsoever. This is clear enough that I don’t need to bother with an explanation - Here’s 3 search terms for you:
Company town
Pullman

The PLO were in power, Israel knew who Hamas were, and funded their rise to power (for what reason other than to manufacture the pretext for this genocide?), they also created and maintained the conditions that would motivate and justify violent resistance, so yes - Israel are responsible for Hamas.
In maintaining the horrible conditions I pointed to, Israel further motivated people to push back by any means necessary while giving them as little as possible to live for.
You don’t get to tell us you want peace as you defend a genocide. You don’t get to tell us about atrocities as the IDF gleefully document dozens per day, and you don’t get to tell the people you’re genociding that they’re wrong.
With that all clarified, what would justifiable Palestinian self-defence look like, and do those principles apply equally to Israel?
How about Brigadier General Yitzhak Segev, the Israeli military governor in Gaza in the early 1980s.
Oh look - a New York Times reporter saved us the trouble. Turns out that he had helped finance the Palestinian Islamist movement as a “counterweight” to the secularists and leftists of the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Fatah party, led by Yasser Arafat (who also corroborated this statement).
…there’s that, and the whole military occupation to maintain an apartheid state in an open air concentration camp, the decades-long annexation campaign. You’ll be surprised to learn that people find that kind of thing upsetting.
I disagree - I think the majority know they’re lying, and support the genocide - they’re just cowards too gutless to say so.
You give these monsters any sort of push, and they start using Palestinian and Hamas interchangeably which really gives the game away… keep going, and they start screaming their support for wiping Palestine off the map.
70% of Hamas aren’t.
What does this tell us about Israel’s goals?
You think they have a single fuck to give about mandates? They’ve got the power - they’re itching to use it. Good luck everyone.
