OBJECTION!

Oh, it’s definitely because I support his message that rape and murder are OK. As a Satanic Islamocommunist who wants to force everyone share the same toothbrush, follow Shakira Law, and to force all children to trans their genders, when I heard that Hasan kicks puppies and wants to drown orphans, I was like, “Hell yeah! Now this is a guy I can get behind!”

I would let him put me in a shock collar 🥺

American politics are so fucked for these to be the two faces of public health policy.

Republicans really looked at a Reagan appointee who, having first overseen Reagan’s famously awful response (or non-response) to AIDS, then lied to the public by validating their own anti-mask bullshit in order to cover for Trump selling off emergency supplies, while advocating against lockdowns, doing basically fuck-all except asking people nicely to wear masks, and they went, “Nah, this guy’s a left-wing radical, we hate his guts, we want the guy who eats roadkill,” and meanwhile Democrats looked at the same and went, “Hell yeah, that’s our guy!”

Democrats really are just Republicans from a couple decades ago, while Republicans are just fully insane.

Neither one of them is remotely trustworthy, there’s only one reliable place to turn to for health advice and it’s international organizations. The idea that any US institutions will be shielded or isolated from political influence is delusional.

To the downvoters: Here’s a clip of him spewing all kinds of misinformation, which the anti-maskers would run with. The only reason he said any of that nonsense was to cover for the administration’s decision to sell off emergency stockpiles. The correct response would have been to completely ignore what he said, and to instead follow the example of other countries where masking was widespread.

Because masks fucking work.

He’s also great at hide-and-seek.

Tbh the biggest danger that would come from having bin Laden babysit your kids is the possibility of them being killed in a drone strike.

The title seems to be generating confusion, but the author’s point is that there are billionaire oligarchs (not just Trump, people whose power is not term-limited) pushing to gain control of Canada’s resources. He’s not talking about ordinary Americans nor is he necessarily talking about an invasion or a war.

The playbook here is generally to apply economic pressure with the aim of causing political discontent, while at the same time financing an opposition faction that’s more pliable, like they’re doing against Cuba, Afghanistan, Iran, etc.

As someone with an encyclopedic knowledge of Key and Peele sketches, let me just say, there were signs.

Well you have fetus levels of comprehension neener neener.

Why the fuck did you decide you wanted to have this conversation?

Where? No you fucking didn’t.

The only reason I started hurling insults was because you refused to clarify anything at any point in favor of going “LEARN TO READ YOUR READING COMPREHENSION IS SO BAD LMAO” over and over again, without actually pointing out ANYTHING that I supposedly misunderstood at ANY stage of the conversation. All of this could’ve been avoided if you had done that.

I literally never said you said that. LEARN TO READ! GO BACK TO SCHOOL, IDIOT! LMAO YOU HAVE NO READING COMPREHENSION 🤣🤣🤣

See, I can do your thing too.

I literally quoted you word for word on everything, except for the part at the beginning where I clarified that socialism isn’t when the government does stuff, which I never claimed you said.

Even if you weren’t lying, bluffing, and trolling, which you absolutely 100% are and have been this whole time, there’s no excuse for you to keep accusing me of misreading and not having reading comprehension instead of saying the fucking thing you’re accusing me of misreading. We could have been having a productive conversation this whole time but no, because you’re just a troll who’d rather do this bit of pretending I misunderstood something.

Communicating badly and acting smug when you’re misunderstood is not cleverness.

You are a worthless pedant and a troll.

You equivocated Kamala with what is happening now:

Kamala was fully, 100% behind the genocide and wouldn’t have done shit, just like Biden.

That’s not equating (equivocating is something different btw) what’s happening now with what would’ve happened under Harris, it’s equating what would’ve happened under Harris with what did happen under Biden. Since Harris explicitly chose not to differentiate herself from Biden on any policy, it’s an entirely fair comparison.

Biden did an awful job reigning Bibi, that’s true.

Yes, because he made absolutely no attempt to. Because he literally bypassed congress in order to send them more weapons.

But there is no way to convince you, because none of this conversation is grounded in reality.

• It’s a fact that Biden bypassed congress to send Israel more weapons

• It’s a fact that Kamala did nothing to suggest her policy would have deviated from Biden’s in any way

• It’s a fact that AOC voted to send weapons to Israel

• It’s a fact that Israel is a genocidal, apartheid state

• It’s a fact that your approach of appeasement was already tried and did nothing to stop the genocide.

All of these points are reality, all of them are supported by evidence, all of those are things that you refuse to acknowledge and refuse to ground the conversation in.

So yes, I completely agree that this conversation is not grounded in reality, and yes, there’s no way to convince me any more than you could convince me that the earth is flat, because all of the facts are on my side.

A dialog tree of same stupid “genocide Kamala” “you’re a zionist” etc.

When you support genocide and Zionism, people are gonna say that you support genocide and Zionism. Because it’s true. What do you even expect to happen? How am I even expected to describe your views when you go around being like, “Actually, it’s good to send Israel weapons?”

“All these people are calling me a pool pisser, right on cue, like they’re reading from a script,” you say, after pissing in the pool.

If you’re not going to put in the work to understand i/p and treat everything as a simple soundbyte I can just match your energy. It’s no different really

So, because you see me as knee-jerk opposing Israel, your response is to knee-jerk support Israel.

What a ridiculous conversation. You’re very obviously a Zionist, it’s like you’re just ashamed to accept the label.

So your whole dumbass trolling was over the absolute pedantry of “the police are socialist” vs the “police are socialism?”

You really are just reaching for whatever desperate form of meaningless pedantry you possibly can in order to troll and to get out of the fact that you have zero idea what you’re talking about.

Who the fuck said anything about Trump? Pure whataboutism.

Why are you acting like it’s some sort of revalation that I don’t like Harris? I’m criticizing AOC for being too friendly to the genocidal Zionist regime, and Harris was even more friendly with them. Or do you just like the soundbite of “And there it is?”

No, I didn’t say you used an llm. I’m saying your talking points are indistinguishable from one. It’s just slop sound bytes, nothing more.

Whereas you have the incredibly unique perspective of blindly believing and supporting whatever the politicians of your preferred tribe say or do.

The fact that you can’t at least acknowledge that Israel was also being attacked, especially after Oct 7

That’s not a fact, you pulled that one completely out of your ass. I’m happy to acknowledge it. It changes absolutely nothing about my stance.

You are saying so much and nothing at the same time.

For someone who claims to hate “soundbites” you sure do love trying to make your ‘zingers’ sound profound.

Instant hack to win any argument: just say, “You didn’t understand what I wrote, LEARN TO READ!” over and over again.

It’s obvious you’re full of shit and have literally nothing, that’s why that’s your only response.

Nothing I’ve said or cited was AI generated or had anything to do with twitter, nor were they soundbites. I linked full articles put out by the DSA.

And that includes bringing Israel to the table.

And that’s exactly why they don’t need to be given weapons “defensive” or otherwise. How exactly do you think they can be brought to the table? By asking them nicely to not do genocide? Trying to appease Israel by giving them weapons is no more possible than trying to appease Hitler by giving him Czechoslovakia. There is exactly one limiting factor on Israeli aggression, exactly one way to bring them to the table, and it is force. Kamala was fully, 100% behind the genocide and wouldn’t have done shit, just like Biden.

If you guys aren’t capable of addressing these with real concrete actionable items, it’s just effervescent self masturbatory ejaculate

You guys had full control of the executive branch, and what did you do to stop the genocide? How did giving them weapons and asking nicely to “bring them to the table” work out for you?

I find it hard to believe anyone’s dumb enough to actually think that’s a viable strategy. Again, you’re just a Zionist, you just support giving them weapons because you don’t have any problem whatsoever with what’s happening there, you just don’t want to say it outright because it sounds bad.

Notice how they constantly link government funded tracts as if they’re sources.

If someone claims something happened on the fediverse without providing a link, they’re lying.

Yes yes, I know, I’ve engaged in wrongthink, therefore I’m a “Kremlin bot” and can be written out regardless of how much evidence I provide for the things I’m saying. Notice that I didn’t link any “government funded tracts” here, but the DSA’s own statements about this. Unless you’re implying that the DSA is also full of “Kremlin bots?”

I’ve explained what the iron dome is.

Everyone knows what the Iron Dome is, dipshit.

Correct

Correct? What TF do you mean correct? Correct we should send Iran missile defense systems?

They are not key allies in the me.

So you support the alliance with the genocidal regime.

And now we’re back in the world of slop sound bytes. I’m so happy for you that you’re anti-genocidal.

Describing things dismissively doesn’t make them untrue.

I don’t even know why you’re weighing in on this conversation. Obviously, I’m criticizing her from an anti-Zionist perspective. If you want to argue that she aligns with your Zionist values, then sure, I agree with that completely. From the perspective that genocide is actually bad, however, the criticism is completely valid.

Ah, there’s your reason. You don’t care that she sent arms to Israel because you want arms to be sent to Israel.

See, now we can identify the point of disagreement, which is that I’m not a genocidal Zionist.

The iron dome bill is exclusively for defense weapons

The thing about defense is that once you have it locked down, you’re free to do whatever aggression you want because nobody will be able to retaliate. The possibility of reprisals is the only reason Israel hasn’t fired up gas chambers and furnaces.

By your logic, why don’t we just send Iran, Palestine, etc. the same kind of “defensive” weapons? It’s not like they’ll be able to hurt anyone with them. You can say “Iran doesn’t have the right to exist” or whatever but that’s not going to cause millions of Iranians to pack up and leave.

No, it takes twice as much energy to refute lies and stupidity.

So essentially you can just say whatever you want with nothing to back it up, gotcha.

Do you intend to contribute anything to this conversation more substantial than, “That’s STOOOPID, you’re so STOOOPID, those headlines are STOOOPID,” because you have yet to provide a single word to actually explain why any of them would not be valid examples.
