        Yes, I’m such a PaTriOt that I am deeply ashamed of most of the things the US does. But hey, at least I’m not so shallow that I think cool red logos justify disgusting and brutal authoritarianism under a different name.

          You spent all of 2024 screaming abuse at people who opposed genocide.

            Nah, mate, that was you. You kept arguing for letting trump win. Genocide max over any other outcome for you, shouting at anyone who tried to get in the way.

              Dems have been and continue to be enthusiastic supporters of Israel, liberals are comfortable trading the lives of innocent Palestinians to keep themselves safe and comfortable

                I didn’t come across any. I heard the accusation here hundreds of times, but I didn’t come across any actual dems or liberals on here defending Israel, AT ALL. Just a bunch of fake “left” wingers shouting about it, trying to get trump elected to own the libs.

                What’s the difference between a tankie and a magat? A tankie lies to themselves about politics whereas a magat just lies to everyone else.

                You think that you’re auth left, but you’re just auth.

                  Lol ok, so first of all just because you claim you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it isn’t happening dumbass, weak response and you know it. Secondly even if you’re ot directly defending Israel you’re still making excuses for your party defending funding and arming Israel and taking millions of dollars of AIPAC money. Maintaining a semblance of plausible deniability while still directly materially contributing to genocide isn’t better, and neither are you. Liberals are not left of anything, just conservatives who care slightly more about appearances. You’re a lying sack of shit and your hands are covered in blood. You deserve Trump and worse.

                    Link it. Find me lemmy users saying “Vote dem because Israel needs our support”.

                    All I saw was “yeah Biden is crap but trump would be so much worse” and then the same for Harris. The only people on lemmy who believed that voting for Harris was supporting israel were advocating against voting for Harris. Seriously, do you not even remember? Username checking out again.

                    making excuses for your party

                    Not my party, matey.

                    Liberals are not left of anything

                    Objectively false. American liberals are centrists who are left of Republicans.

                    You’re a lying sack of shit and your hands are covered in blood.

                    I’m not, and I’m not the one who argued for genocide max. That was the NeverHarris brigade, which you are surely in.

                    You deserve Trump and worse.

                    Says the person who argued for the outcome we have.

                You were one of the stop Harris at all costs people, i.e. trump for president. You love to pretend to be left wing, but everything you did in the election cycle was to support trump.

                  I wanted her to drop support for genocide, in part because I thought it was a losing issue, but mostly because it’s unconscionable.

                  Democrats should have listened to the left. It would have energized the base. Instead they listened to consultants and tried to appeal to republicans. We saw how that turned out.

                    You argued so strongly against her being elected and yet somehow trump isn’t your fault AT ALL in your mind. You spent so much time and effort trying to stop her being elected and then somehow anything or anyone that said “vote harris” is culpable for the opposite outcome. So backwards. I don’t know how you ever reconciled the obvious contradiction. True doublethink.

                    Trump would thank you if he had any some sense of gratitude or loyalty or gave even a tiny bit of shit about people who are giving him large amounts of money.

                  Harris could have chosen to oppose Israel any time she wanted, she didn’t and she lost. You and your party are completely morally bankrupt and refuse to take responsibility for your actions. You deserve Trump and worse.

          Your shame is as worthless as your political action lol, authoritarianism is a thought-terminating buzzword employed by spineless liberals too terrified of the idea of wielding power for good to actually do anything to help

            This phrase renders all your words unlistenable. You just said that if a dictator is friendly to you, then they are good. Bye, blocked tankie.

              Lol thank you for directly confirming my assertion, all thought terminated because of the phrase! And then you made some shit up that I never came close to saying in order to justify blocking me, but we both know your real motive is to tuck tail and run from an argument you just lost embarassingly.

                  I agree, you are like a petulant toddler unwilling to accept reality because it hurts your feelings. Also didn’t you say you were going to block me? Not that I’m complaining, you might be a fucking moron but you’re more entertaining than my clients and I can easily keep doing this and taking calls all day lol

                    No, you’re confusing me with someone you were arguing with rather than someone commenting on your debating technique.

                    Did you think that swearing at me, calling me names and all the anger convinced me I was wrong to suggest that your debating lacked maturity and finesse?

                    I’m afraid it did the opposite.
