America’s support for genocide isn’t an accident. It isn’t an anolomy. It’s what America always does. It’s what the system was built on.

Look at the size of America’s military. Look at the size of America’s wealth. Look at who benefits.

If you defend capitalism, you defend that.

  • And now you’re accusing independents of being Nazis. Like that’s gonna help.

    I mean, I understand. You’re just following the example of your party leaders, like when Hillary accused Tulsi Gabbard of being a Russian agent. Like most people, you look to your political leaders to understand the political landscape, and your party really hasn’t given you any other example.

    One of the functions of political parties is to spread political literacy among the population, and the Democrats and the Republicans both feed you nonsense because they’re never going to tell you “the truth is we serve the corporate class, lol”.

    It’s not your fault that they’re failing you. But they are failing you. And they’re failing America.





  • Why is this downvoted? Shouldn’t Democrats love this? This is a win-win for the Democrats and Greens.

    John Oliver just described on his latest show how Georgia state rep Ruwa Romman (a Palestinian-American woman in a swing state) arranged a vote swap with someone in a non-swing state, where Romman would vote for Harris in exchange for a vote against Harris. And John Oliver is as Democrat as they come.

    And I think one vote for Harris in a swing state in exchange for two votes against Harris elsewhere is more than generous to the Democrats right now considering the circumstances.




  • the powers that be (UK and US primarily) already have control of the area (still Mandatory Palestine), and a desire to maintain control of the area, they decide to give most of that land to the Jews and call it Israel.

    Israel wasn’t created by the UK or the US (or the UN). Israelis declared the state of Israel themselves after seizing territory in the 1948 Arab-Israeli War.

    The UN did have a plan to create an Israel in 1947, but that didn’t happen, because neither the Jews, the Arabs, nor the UK were on board.



  • I think a Two-State Solution would be a good idea (and I have opinions on exactly where the border should go), but it will have to be imposed on Israel by the international community.

    Israel has never been sincere about a Two-State solution, and their “offers” to Palestine have been inadequate and unworkable, and the Palestinians have been right to reject them because there’s no point in accepting a deal that won’t lead to peace. Only a fair and workable deal can lead to peace.

    Israel has demonstrated that they are an illegitimate state, because legitimate states do not bomb the stateless people living within their borders. At this point we should be treating Israel like Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany. The Israeli military should be placed under foreign control, and the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and Gaza returned to the Palestinians.

    So far, the only thing stopping this from happening has been the United States’ support for Israel.

    Israel needs to realize that the United States is rapidly declining in power, and if Israel doesn’t voluntarily cede the Palestinian territories, Israel might not exist at all in the near future.
