I didn't appreciate that this genocide was so important to the price of groceries

And not like Harris gives a fuck about the price of groceries. And certainly she could do both, but she'll do neither and jerk us off.
and she won't even jerk us off properly 
Listen, I can't do much about the dead kids (except make more of them) but have you SEEN the price of cereal?
"Also, it's not going down either, my donors need to gouge you."
We just need to reach the treat/genocide equilibrium point.
Also called the Mussolini Mean
an interesting strategy, to make plain the relationship between imperialism and food prices.
"let us do what we will to the unfortunates of the earth, or the age of the affordable fruit, vegetable, and fossil fuel is over."
Yeah, I've wondered at what point this contradiction will become too clear, and the west decides that the new strategy is convincing people 'us over them' in much plainer words. It wouldn't not work.
Because the Biden presidency has been so good for grocery prices? If grocery prices are my biggest concern I’m voting Trump, my grocery bill nearly fucking doubled since Biden took office, that’s a fucking terrible issue for her to campaign on since her administration caused the fucking problem.
Do you actually think the Biden admin caused inflation (and the non-inflation increases as well) and that voting for trump will reduce inflation or is this a bit pretending to be the average US voter?
Do you actually think the Biden admin caused inflation
Biden admin pushed for war in Ukraine, probably the biggest shock to global grain prices
voting for trump doesn't mean that'd be fixed, but
You honestly think the US wouldn’t have involved itself in the war under a Trump administration? We literally saw evidence of the miliatry complex’s autonomy during his administration.
But I agree with OP that campaigning on improving grocery prices is a brainmelt level move for Kamala
you see all the financial ties specifically between the democrats and ukraine and think the republicans, who have repeatedly signaled an intent to buddy up with Russia to team up against China, would literally have done the exact same thing
Yeah that also, the war in Ukraine is much more a Democrat project compared to Israel which is fully supported by both sides
The Biden admin certainly contributed to inflation in a massive degree. It's always a nigh-constant thing under the system, sure, but alongside the Ukraine war (which as someone else mentioned effected grain prices- but more than that has led to the crumbling of the western levers of finance, etc) and his continuation and even intensification of the Trumpian trade wars and antagonizing China, he's been running off that money printer in what I feel may as well be considered some of the largest wealth transfers to big tech/the MIC... (I'd call it tossing "bad money* after bad" maybe lololol- toilet paper money down the drain to endless corruption because the neoliberal disease is honestly hilarious in how ineffective it is)
Mind you, Trump was also abysmal. And the contradictions of the system are really closing in on them all so whoever's next will probably be worse, and so on.
It doesn't matter what I think or what they did. It's very very very stupid to say that they're going to fix a problem that happened under their own administration.
The Biden admin’s decisions certainly contributed to inflation, even if they weren’t the primary cause.
But the main point is that it’s stupid to campaign on fixing the problem that happened on your watch. If you were gonna fix it, why haven’t you already?
Presidents don't control prices.
That’s not entirely true, they make policies that will influence prices. Pushing the war in Ukraine led to an increase in grain prices for example.
But beyond that, it doesn’t matter. Campaigning on fixing a problem that happened under your administration is fucking stupid.
polls say voters care about words starting with 'g'
So WHEN will she tackle the gooning epidemic
Why would a Democrat president solve a problem they caused?
It's probably gonna be a while, a few hours at least
Every sperm is sacred.
They are basically one step removed, at best, from outright saying: "Palestinian lives don't matter." Thank you, I'm happy I voted green earlier this morning.
The leadership is once removed but they're being heard loud and clear by their chudstituents. i already found that take exactly. Check this mf out.
I even reported the comment and ~a day later it's still up
That's just nazbol shit. These people are regurgitating stuff that's commonly known as fascist rhetoric. "Benefits for everyone within our borders. Death, destruction, and colonialism for everyone outside."
Even if this were morally acceptable—like if we just cut out the parts about genocide altogether—it’s ludicrous to suggest that Americans aren’t going to suffer under KDolph.
Why would they remove it, they love that shit on world.
Fuck for an instant so against people celebrating violence they loved people cheering anyone Israel assassinates
Remember when she said she'd do something about price gouging during a crisis, it ended up amounting to doing basically nothing, and the chuds all shat their pants anyway? Fun times.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS STOP SENDING FUCKING MISSILES AND MONEY UNCONDITIONALLY.
It's not unconditionally, the condition is that they get used to kill brown people.
They can kill a few a whiteys as well, as a treat.
We take everything aside, I sincerely want to ask her what's her playbook? She can be as right-wing as she wants, but corporations will STILL see her as "the enemy" and will band together to make life worse for poor people as a form of protest. What is her strategy? because porky didn't play nice during Biden's term and won't play nice during her term.
but corporations will STILL see her as "the enemy" and will band together to make life worse for poor people as a form of protest.
Once she's in (or trump, really) Porky will continue to complain vocally about anything left of anarcho-capitalism. The time they've already spent controlling info and framing all issues rightward has been the engine behind America's supposedly "center-right" constituency.
Not that ya don't already know this but there's no new strat here, her strategy is the same as the DNCs, to set heavily means-tested policies juuuuuuust to the left of center and then capitulate rightward ad-infinitum. Then just over 3 years into her term she'll start talking bout how those promises ~~Biden~~ she made won't come unless she's reelected in a blue wave.
The only thing im not sure of is who the Dems and media will elevate to boss baddie once trump is grifting the worms. Is DeSantis enough of a R bugaboo to recreate another election to "save democracy"?
Not that she'd do either
Uncompromising evil of treat/empire duality coming into public
You'll get one free piece of cereal for each child we run over with a bulldozer.
Sound good?
