  • Or they are just quiet because they realize they’ve placed Gaza into the hands of Netanyahu’s allies in the US and there’s literally no way to defend this outcome.

    “They” didn’t. All of America did. I still don’t understand how anyone thinks Gaza had anything with Harris’s loss. I very much doubt the 10 million non/protest voters all didn’t vote for Harris because of Gaza, or that there are even 10 million people in the US that care about Gaza enough to accept another Trump term.




  • That and Israel doesn’t NEED our weapons to keep doing what they’re doing, they never have.

    Uh… Seriously look up what political scientists have to say about this. Israel uses too much, well, everything compared to what they can produce themselves.

    Cutting them off only makes them weaker should they be attacked by Iran

    And how is that a bad thing? Israel wouldn’t be able to do this shit if the US wasn’t protecting it from its neighbors.





  • Where have we failed?

    You know how Europe is mostly ethnically homogeneous? Well thanks to European and American escapades into the Middle East they’re becoming less ethnically homogeneous, and because of that xenophobic right wing rhetoric works on them a lot more than Americans. Add the post-covid economy and other legitimate issues where those immigrants can be scapegoated and Europeans welcome far right parties with open arms, because unlike Americans they’re not inoculated against these ideas.

    Someone might point to the result of this election, to which I say there’s a reason people are angry at the DNC and it’s because they could’ve won if they were actually trying. It’s completely different from Europe where young people are shifting right.

    Anyway what I wanna say is that this outcome was basically inevitable because in a parliamentary system like in most European countries the government will be too moderate to stop it.
