Libs gone full mask off about genocide lately and it’s fucked up. Zero respect for these people.

Maybe neither Democrats or Republicans are to blame, but instead it's the wealthy capitalists who have been using their growing money and influence to force both political parties into supporting a genocide.

Plenty of CEOs of major US companies have shown their support for Israel, but very few have even acknowledge Palestine. The rest of us are just peasants living under the lie that our votes actually could meaningfully change this.

random people who happen to vote for a Republican or a Democrat aren't to blame, sure

but the actual Republicans and Democrats; the representatives, the party functionaries, the people who's checks are signed by the RNC or the DNC? Those people certainly deserve some blame.

The problem is that both democrat and republican leadership seems completely controlled by the wealthy capitalists.

Yeah you’re absolutely correct.

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

to be fair: they're not aware that they're supporting a genocide despite all of the evidence in front of their eyes; like maga.

How can they not be aware when I’m telling them they are?

[–] eldavi@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

they heard you, but they didn't listen

How could they hear with their hands covering their ears?
