the stark contrast between the .world version of this post and this one makes me doubt that the lemmyverse has any stamina.

I agree that .world is problematic especially that Zionist “bias” checker bot and their tolerance of hasbara comments & genocide denial. But also I got banned for “racism” at !worldnews@lemmy.ml for saying China is committing genocide against the Uyghurs…

Because Trump is so likely to be a better choice for solving the Israel-Gaza crisis, lol.

When you can't even call it a genocide of Gazans by Israel you should rethink whether you should even comment.

Who the fuck said anything about Trump? Not sure why you think people dying from American bombs give a fuck about who sent them.

Can you crawl out of your narrow worldview for just a second and recognize that real people are experiencing a real genocide?

That's not some Russian propaganda spin either, but recognized by the ICJ.

I agree there's a horrific genocide taking place, aided by the USA, and all Americans should be ashamed of this. But to be fair, the headline indicates these voters will vote against Harris. Either that's a vote for Trump or a vote for a third party. Either way it increases trump's likelihood of being elected.

Ok? There's a simple solution here for the democrats.

Let's not engage in victim blaming here and recognize who has power to end this and who is exercising their right to express their profound and utter disappointment in a political system that is, at best, ambivalent to their suffering.

Who the fuck said I don't believe there's a genocide going on?

Good thing no one is making that argument then.

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 days ago

The existence of this post is the embodiment of that argument you clown

So you're saying some people are making that argument? Who are they?
