DISCLAIMER: this is not my content that was removed, I just came across it in the modlog and found it to be absurd. If it’s not allowed, I totally understand.
Reason removed was because it’s unrelated.
Unrelated…..
The guy was illegally deported without due process. And yet for some reason, suggesting so is somehow “unrelated” to a meme that is trying to say that because he is affiliated (no charges were ever filed against him for gang-related activity) with a gang, he is by default, guilty.
What’s ironic, is that the entire point of the meme is that the bullshit about him being in MS-13 is unrelated to the fact that people want accountability for this administration illegally deporting a man without due process.
This mod has definitely chosen the correct name.
And even taken into consideration that the instance is essentially a troll haven for wayward 4Chan refugees, they should still have to adhere to the rules of common sense.
Wasn’t there also the slight issue of many not bothering to vote at all or not willing to vote for the more democratic candidate over Israel or something? So much drama in the states…
Yeah all those "gEnOciDe" trolls have mystically vanished since then ...
I haven't gone anywhere. Frankly you're a piece of shit for implying everybody who cared about gaza was a foreign troll. The fact you're entirely lacking empathy for foreigners and only care about your own sheltered ass doesn't mean we're all like that. Scumbag
What's happening in palestine is blatantly abhorrent, but voting dem would have ended in a much more favourable outcome (not a good outcome, but better).
If you mean a more favorable outcome in Palestine, I... don't think so. I mean I voted for Harris, and a mostly democratic ballot from top to bottom, but I really don't think she would have changed the behavior of Israel in Palestine or even significantly change U.S.A. actions that support that behavior.
But, she wouldn't have trashed our relationship with every trading partner, ruined the NIH and FDA, published military plans in the newspaper. She might have been better on trans rights, but maybe not. So, yeah a more favorable outcome overall, at least IMO.
While I wasn't referring to Palestine specifically, I feel it would have been tangentially more preferable, but still awful for Palestine.
I think she would have been on par with biden on trans rights.
that user is always occupying the ever-common Lemmy superposition of dunking relentlessly on people for being pro Palestine, but then if pressed will desperately act like they're also pro Palestine and claim that it's your responsibility to prove why they're not.
This one you're replying to in particular is also just a chauvinist who loves calling Russians orcs
I don't think those people are dunking on people for being pro-palestine, they're dunking on them not voting because of Palestine.
Believe it or not, not everyone is a shit stain American who got to vote for one of your two shitty mainstream candidates, both of which support Israel to the hilt.
My parties? I'm Irish and all three of our major parties support palestine.
Good for you. But I don't see the problem with dunking on anyone who supports genocide, and that includes the Dems, sadly. Why would any leftist USasian bother voting if their choices are confined to either supplying weapons to genocidal regimes, or supplying bombs to genocidal regimes?
Because voting dem results in less harm overall. Its easier to fix a system when the system isn't disappering people.
A charitable read is that it's only dunking on people for the electoral choices, but the racist comment history and shitty previous interactions I've had with this particular user is why I don't have any charity today.
This “superposition” tactic has a name: Motte-and-bailey argument
Is that similar to being pro-Palestine while they’re being invaded yet pro-Russian while they’re invading?
No, and
I was just wondering if Palestine was the motte and Russia would be the bailey but I guess I got it wrong and I’ll have to read that article again.
Average 'anti-racist' lib.
