The haters will downvote. But you're right and they know it. And it drives them insane.
You can see they largely come from Lemmy.world accounts, the mods there are very friendly towards Zionism, unlike most other instances.
Imported reddit mods. Same power tripping authoritarians they've always been.
Lemmy.world is attempting to make Reddit 2, after all.
This seems to have devolved into blanket othering. Which is a great way to isolate yourself in an echo chamber.
The UI layout and elements of Lemmy.world are pretty close to exactly Reddit, without infringing copyright.
Regardless, I see liberalism for 95% of my waking life, liberal views are supported and leftist views are silenced, it's nice to see more Leftism.
Nah, it's just an understanding of nuance and being able to see the long term effects of this election. Everyone who is posting stuff like this doesn't seem to give a fuck about anything but this. It seems you are all ready to let the world burn everywhere else as long as we stop sending bombs.
To be clear, I don't support what's happening, at all. Full stop. But we have to help decide the future of one of the strongest countries in the world, there's plenty to consider. For example, maintaining your right to even vote to effect issues like this in the future.
Both Trump and Kamala are aligned on foreign policy, that's something the DNC and GOP have been aligned on for forever.
The sooner the American Empire loses hegemony the sooner the world can grow.
If Trump can take away the right to vote by winning, he can do so if he loses. That level of power trancends the Presidency to begin with.
No average person wants genocide but we have to pick between two candidates. If you can't see how one would be much worse in the long run than the other I dunno what to tell you. At least with one of them you can still vote and express your views. But nah, better to just roll the dice and boycott the both them hope for the best.
Yeah, man. We're ugly-crying every day over it. You totally got us pegged. /s
