    Human Shields rhetoric. You’re blaming the folks in the firing line for the actions of the ones pulling the trigger.

      I’m accusing you of doing exactly what Netanyahu would prefer that you do, no more, no less.

        I’m accusing you

        “Always go on the offense and blame the other guy for dying” is the IDF strategy, yes.

      If/when Trump wins and he immediately deports all Palestinians, will you admit you were wrong? Or will you just double down (or are you just full of shit from the get-go)?

        and he immediately deports all Palestinians

        His biggest voting block? Doubtful.

          Voting blocks? What voting blocks? It’s cute that you think we’ll continue to hold elections after Trump wins.

            What voting blocks?

            https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voting_bloc

            you think we’ll continue to hold elections after Trump wins.

            I will take 1000:1 odds, no cap, that we have municipal elections in 2025 and statewide/Congressional elections in 2026, no matter who wins

              I know what a fucking voting bloc is, I was making a point.

              Yeah, you know who else has elections? Russia

                I know what a fucking voting bloc is

                Then why did you ask?

                Yeah, you know who else has elections? Russia

                Far be it for me to defend the deplorable state of the post-Gorbachev government. But you don’t have to cross the Pacific to find a One-Party state. You can find it easily enough in Ohio, Texas, and Florida.

          Check out prole’s recent post where they asked me to end my own life. They’re truly an amazing contributor to Lemmy.

          I wish everyone saw this buried comment showing your complete disregard and dismissal of palestinians so they cold easily see your comments are at best those of an attention hungry narcissist.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
