Are the "tankies" in the room with you right now?
You can say it in less words that you sucked down Russian propaganda so bad, you still haven't accepted the reality of it...
Fuck Russia, Slava Ukraini. Why did Biden and Top Cop Kamala fail to have Trump tried for the treason that he committed?
Conveniently it's always some outside force that causes Democrats to lose, never the Democrats themselves.
talk about not accepting reality...
Yes, users like Ensign_Crab spent all day everyday screaming the "Harris is genocidal" bs every day 2 years ago. And they're still out there all day, every day being a shill for the Putin aligned green party and is remarkably silent on the atrocities of Republicans.
EnsignCrab is still fighting the good fight because people like you are still simping for zionist genociders. You've learned nothing by that last betrayal of the voters and epic failure to win what should have been an easy election. You'll 100% try to lose us the next election too.
And trump being in office stopped the genocide right? That was your end goal, right? To stop the genocide.
Or did the genocide in Gaza worsen and now we're threatening genocide on Iran? Do you think Harris would be vowing to destroy an entire civilization?
My goal was to end the inevitability of this and future genocides yeah. Lets get to universal human rights and destroy those who would oppose it.
Big difference from what you are saying. And you are whining to keep the status quo going.
If the election depends on people outside your base mincing their words about your candidate maybe your candidate just sucks.
Maybe Harris shouldn’t have committed to funding Israel if she didn’t want to be viewed as a genocide supporter.
Cool, so now we have a genocide in Gaza AND we're threatening to genocide Iran. Thats so much better than what Harris was going to do.
What really gets me is that people were surprised the VP of the US wouldn’t be against genocide.
It really speaks to the failure of the education system.
So getting trump elected stopped the genocide, right? Since that is the end goal, the genocide ended. How's that going? I guess now we have genocide in Gaza AND threatening it in Iran.
That’s not at all what I’m saying and you’re just reacting emotionally.
Fine, you got me I'm emotional over 2 US sponsored genocides. That doesn't make you emotional either? That doesn't piss you off that we predictably made genocide worse by letting trump win? Jesus fuck, you want to talk about failing education, how about understanding basic cause and effect?
I’ve been so pissed about so much for so long that making a genocide worse is barely a blip.
At least you're admitting you don't care enough to vote against worsening genocide. Congrats on proving OP's exact point about tankies fucking over Kamala for not being anti-genocide enough and letting trump do turbo-genocide.
You don’t know who I voted for.
And you’re so emotional you’re misreading everything I write.
I dont care who you voted for its the "kamala is just as genocidal as trump" rhetoric that discouraged others from voting. So congrats Kamala lost because she wasn't anti genocide enough and now we have double turbo genocide.
Kamala lost because voters are idiots and don’t understand we don’t get to vote for no genocide.
That’s my entire point.
She was suggesting we carry on with 70 years of foreign policy, suddenly that makes her an outlier.
Exactly. If kids had learned anything they’d know it would take at least another 70 years to change the government’s mind.
