Victim blame much?

The kid had a stick, for Pete's sake
Were you asleep for the last decade? We've seen over and over how people of color get treated by cops.
He was having a mental health crisis. But instead of being helped, he was executed by a full grown man afraid of a boy with a stick
Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, J.B. Pritzker, Jared Polis, Josh Shapiro, I could do this all day. We don't have to go with a feeble genocidal geriatric. It's a choice. And when he loses in November the fault will not lie with people of conscious, it will lie with those who buried their head under the sand
Israel has an app where they post links to social media posts discussing Israel for app users to go astroturf. They take their propaganda very seriously. They have a word for propaganda targeting foreigners: "hasbara." https://mepc.org/speeches/hasbara-and-control-narrative-element-strategy
Butcher Biden isn't "good." He's evil, just less evil than Trump. He needs to step aside and let someone else represent the Democratic Party.
Yeah, he was quite a bit better than Obama before this, in my opinion. I was pleasantly surprised.
What's truly wild is the misleading media coverage of Glazer's speach. Variety initially quoted him as saying, "Right now, we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness." That reads totally different than what he actually said: "Right now, we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many innocent people." He's refuting the hijacking of their Jewishness, not their Jewishness itself.
Then NBC News covered his remarks in an article titled "Jonathan Glazer condemns violence in Gaza and Israel in Oscars speech" and subtitled "In his remarks, the director said in part: 'Whether the victims of October the 7th in Israel or the ongoing attack in Gaza, all the victims of this dehumanization, how do we resist?'" They thus give the impression that Glazer's comments were a condemnation of both sides of the conflict, not the targeted criticism of Israel's occupation that it was.
I'm glad to hear you share (some of) my dissapointment with Biden. It's so nice to find some common ground in a conversation on here, I'm not going to try to pick a further fight. Have a good day
I'm not upset that I'm not getting my way. I'm upset that I'm seeing skeletal children in my Instagram feed while Butcher Biden announces he's going to start work on a pier that will take two months to build while hundreds of trucks full of food are just sitting at the Gaza border. If mass murder doesn't bother you, carry on sneering at those of us who do care.
What Biden is doing with his material support of a genocide is unequivocally worse than anything Trump did. You can't go lower than genocide. Yes, you will reply that Trump would do the same or worse than Biden in Gaza. But this isn't the Trolley Problem. There are other options. If we don't choose another option, it's not because we don't have a choice, it's because we don't give a fuck.
