you love to see it
rocking up to the she/her convention in my “sexism isn’t real” t-shirt, wondering why i’m not making any friends
If racism or sexism is normal or accepted where you are, we are truly in different worlds.
we very literally are not. you just don’t notice these things because they plainly don’t impact you. you don’t care because it’s not your problem. you are exactly as much an impediment to a better world as any given nazi, and i wish you the same fate i wish them.
If it is ridiculous, why is most of the world behaving that way?
okay. look. you are either saying you don’t understand how something that’s normalized can be bad or you’re just so goddamn dense that you’re about to rip spacetime a new asshole. racism is normalized but it’s bad. sexism is normalized but it’s bad. the united states massacring foreign civilians for their country’s resources is normalized but bad. and yes, covid is now also - say it with me - normalized, but still bad.
christ alive.
don’t mistake you being worthless for my lack of ability. you are just obviously not capable of learning and i am not a patient woman
go guzzle a septic tank
you are an idiot and you’re not worth my time, plague rat.
because it’s fucking ridiculous to treat covid like we do the common cold. obviously.
give 'em dinner and a show!

that’s just going through life with blinders on
during wartime
please point to the years where the U.S. has not been at war.
as always with the U.S., everyone involved should be executed for high crimes against humanity
i’m sure he was just super busy ensuring roe v wade remained the law of the land, protecting trans rights, and successfully addressing covid
frankly, your comment is a great summation of why electoralism is a dead end for change, but i’ll play ball a little longer regardless.
Trump, who I believe will make the Palestinian situation worse
I understand the instinctive gut belief that this is true, but materially, what can he provide to Israel that Biden has not? It goes without saying that the empire isn’t abandoning its vassal regardless of which figurehead is in charge, of course, but the only thing stopping Biden from sending more weapons is that it simply doesn’t have the productive capabilities to further arm Israel (or the Ukraine, for that matter) at present. In a very real sense, Trump doesn’t have much room with which to get worse, even if he wanted to. The end result of Biden’s support for Israel is the death of every last Palestinian. Trump will continue that work, true. You are going to watch this genocide happen in your lifetime, one way or another. You can either support it or oppose it. You have rightly identified that there is no real way to vote against it (aside from support of a third party, which we’ll get to).
Biden who I believe is slightly better but as the lesser of two evils,
But why? Based on what evidence? He has been a staunch Zionist since the 80s, long before Trump could even find Palestine on a map. He has been a part of ratcheting up every war effort the U.S. has engaged in since he got into office. If your perception of him is that he is an old fighter who’s battling it out with the Republicans to eek out wins for the climate and labor unions then, well, I would just spend less time on Twitter, frankly. That level of brainworms is beyond the scope of this comment. If your perception of him is “Joe Biden, chill old grandpa VP to the first black president!” then you should know he was besties with (to the point of eulogizing him!) Strom Thurmond, a man so racist he would make Hitler’s lederhosen tighten with unfettered Nazi joy. This was, in fact, his appeal: Biden was specifically picked to win back the racists in the Dem base who had no interest in supporting a black man for president.
To me, you read like someone who still believes the Democrats have something meaningfully different to offer than the Republicans. In reality, these people are all friends. Their kids go to (fancy, private) school together. They get brunch at restaurants so expensive you and I would have our knees broken for standing too close to the entrance. Many of them are even funded by the very same people and corporations. It’s disheartening, but there really is no major political party that cares one iota about human life.
a third party which is throwing out the vote without ranked choice voting, or not voting
And they’ll never let you have ranked choice voting, as I’m sure you’ve realized. The elite are not going to do anything to upset their grasp on power.
Look, at the end of the day if you’ve been paying attention then you know Biden is fucking cooked. His brain is pudding and his opponent got the coolest photo op a U.S. ghoul has had in decades. You can support him (and tacitly, his genocide) despite his dismal chances or you can vote for someone who opposes it. The likelihood either will elected is nil. The result is almost certainly going to be the same: Trump is going to be President, again.
I say this as a trans woman. I am not going to be having a good time. But even in the worst case scenario, where they’re sticking me on Cybertruck to the Quiznos™ death camps, I could not imagine being able to live with myself knowing I tried to throw an entire peoples under the bus to stave off my execution.
You do what your conscience can bear.
leftists are not liberals. i don’t feel like getting too deep into the weeds here but the difference functionally boils down to leftists opposing capitalism, whereas liberals are its most ardent defenders
I don’t support any of the US funding for Israel.
oh but you do, and that’s my whole point. in an electoral frame of mind, your only power is your vote. you are - in a very real, material sense, from this perspective - supporting genocide when you vote for biden. your feelings about the matter are totally irrelevant to the outcome that your actions have. a vote for genocide is a vote for genocide. you are a direct part of a coalition giving biden the power to continue massacring innocent people. no matter what you’ve convinced yourself your vote means to you, what it means to biden is he has a blank check to stack palestinian bodies.
scratch a liberal etc
