Careful, you're going to get some lemmee dolt in here spouting off about how Trump will be worse, as though that excuses the US' current actions under Biden/Harris

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago

The question for aforementioned dolt is as always: why are they doing it, if it goes against their interest (being elected)?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 months ago

Trump will be worse because he'll be very rude in defending a genocide

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

"this holocaust would be an even worse holocaust under drumpf"

[–] [email protected] 43 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They're just doing a genocide to help appeal to moderate republicans. If they didn't do a genocide then trump might win and then he would do a genocide. Sit down and let the adults in the room handle this one sweaty

what do you mean we shouldn't be courting pro genocide people?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We should be courting pro genocide people, by which I mean subjecting them to the callous and arbitrary nature of our court system as they are imprisoned for reeducation

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

reeducation? oh no we only do slave labor and unnecessary cruelty here

They're part of the empire's 'core in group' and least affected by actions around it's periphery

It's still promising that even this many think it is wrong

I love how liberals paint anti-zionism as “privileged white kids complaining about stuff they don’t understand” when it’s mostly POC being against Israel and almost half of the white people in this country support what Israel is doing. Reminds me how veganism in the US is painted as “white liberal hipster who’s picky with food” when in reality it’s mostly low income POC

While this site does enjoy its dunking on white people, I have to say CHUDs can be brutal at eviscerating white people they don’t see as conformist: practically using “white” a term they might have been using to describe a master race two seconds ago as a perjorative to shut up speech that disagrees with them.

At this point, it feels like they want to call me a race traitor but realize even they would look silly if they called me a race traitor over being a vegan.

Chuds use whiteness as a cudgel against white liberals who pretend to care about equality while, at the same time, preaching ideology that protects their privilege.

The worst thing you can do to a white liberal is force them to admit that their ideas are internally inconsistent. That, in order to maintain a belief of equality, they must drop their other beliefs about police, immigration, imperialism, etc.

Chuds are actually more consistent in their beliefs because they take the other (more evil) path, dropping the belief in equality in order to maintain all those other beliefs.

77% of Democrats, and the DNC ignores them anyway! 77% almost 8 out of every 10 people! The genociders are a radical minority and the DNC doesn't give a shit!

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)

and hey you know THE U.S. IS ALREADY NOT FOLLOWING ITS OWN EXISTING LAWS WHEN PROVIDING THESE WEAPONS

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Do you know which ones off the top of your head?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

DNC DAY THREE episode of TrueAnon had details of at least two different laws but I don't remember exactly and too buzzed

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago

hmm it seems the people oppose the thing I'm doing, sadly I've already drawn them as the soy crying wojak and myself as the chad gaming nordic wojak and thus the genocide will continue.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Is this why they blame African Americans for being antisemitic?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

nah, that i believe is some remnants from landlordism in the 50s new york

Link directly to the PDF with all the poll data (this question is on page 65; I've also rendered it to a higher-res PNG which should be more legible than the screenshot)

edit: this caught my eye since it was right above the questions about Israel:

As you may know, Joe Biden recently issued an executive order that partially shuts down asylum processing along the U.S.-Mexico border, allowing U.S. immigration officials to more quickly deport migrants trying to cross the border illegally. Do you approve or disapprove of this action?

Basically 70% approve across the board, including Hispanics. Barely any variance besides with age, but even then the lowest number is 57% for under-30s pain

edit 2: PNG of the polling data about asylum (also added PNG for the other poll and fixed a typo)

You're telling me the majority of republicans are in favor of Israel? Surprising. It seems a little... uncharacteristic

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They hate Muslims way more than they hate Jews and a solid half of them think this is a prophesied war that's going to bring about the apocalypse and they'll go to heaven because they're Christian.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Been discussed, but I have serious doubts that even a large plurality of them believe that this will bring about some culmination of scripture. The simpler explanation is that the conflict is viewed as historical colonialism in miniature, and, having no skin in the game in this particular instance, conservatives naturally defend Israel, as it is a parallel defense of racialized Hierarchy that defines their worldview. (Also, relatedly, in the postwar period, Jews are (not without justification) seen as victims of recent history, and because support of them doesn't question the systems of racialized Hierarchy or Inequality at large, it's easy for libs and moderates to have come to a pro-Israeli position.)

It’s not so much of a sincere belief but moreso their idea of in-group loyalty. To them, both “its da jooz” and “Israel can do no wrong” can be true so long as it advances their interests, they need not think about the deeper meaning. They’re like good soldiers, they do what they’re told, shoot first, then ask questions later.

Something something redsails article about elites and masses.
