Go ahead and vote against Biden in the November election then too. When Trump's Nazi Regime is rounding up Muslims to put in camps, at least you will have stuck it to Biden.
I fully don't get why people are reacting so much to this. Why the fuck shouldn't I vote against Biden in the primary? He's going to be the nominee regardless, this is exactly the time for Democrats to get out those protest votes.
Biden will win the popular vote by a record-breaking amount, 100%; there is no question about that. However, the United States does not elect a president in accordance with the popular vote.
Biden can lose the electoral college at the fringe, which is literally every other metric. If you care about the presidency, care about the fringe; and do everything possible to shore it up.
there are sensitive people in lemmy.ml who sort by new comment and hit the F5 button every 5 seconds. they have no life and are waiting to pounce. pretty much substitute "communist" with "Facebook Evangelical" and it's the same thing.
I joined there because it was the devs' instance. Had no idea what "ML" meant. I lasted only a couple months before it was explained to me that I'm actually a horrible racist for supporting Ukraine because, trust me, Russia is totally an Asian country and so if you don't support Russia, you're racist against Asians. That was when I woke up and realized that we were dealing with people no different than Sovereign Citizens. They've figured out their special words and magic phrases in just the same way,
Worse: I'm actually very sympathetic to the concept of socialism in general and communism. But these people would rather be right at all costs than swell their numbers.
That looks like a crime against humanity, but that doesn't make it Nazi shit.
Seriously. Read a goddamned history book before you ignorantly go off with stupid takes like this. Comparing atrocities that are committed in war to Nazi shit cheapens the comparison and makes you look like an uneducated fool.
oh man. I did not realize the biden SS was doing this!!! I somehow thought this was happening from the actions of a completely different country. oh man total nazism from biden for sure /s /S lucifer J satan on a toothpick
Biden did not bypass Congress in the sense that Congress would have in any way blocked it, just slightly increased the speed that it happened. What was sold in that deal (anti tank missiles) are not being used in Palestine but are a deterrent for Israel against Iran escalating due to isreals deplorable genocide. The headlines make it seem like anti personal weapons to be used in their genocide but that's not what those are but no one ever thinks about any nuance at all or (gasp) reads the articles.
The Biden administration has used an emergency authority to allow the sale of about 14,000 tank shells to Israel without congressional review, the Pentagon said on Saturday.
WASHINGTON — Going around Congress, the Biden administration said Saturday it has approved the emergency sale to Israel of nearly 14,000 rounds of tank ammunition worth more than $106 million as Israel intensifies its military operations in the southern Gaza Strip.
These are the tank shells that israel uses in Gaza to blow up buildings and commit Genocide with in Gaza (and burn israelis to crisps in Kibbutzes). An anti-tank round means it's strong enough to blow up a tank, not that it can only blow up tanks.
b) Those are shells not missles. Anti Tank missiles imply something like a ATGMs.
People believe that Israel is a puppet of the United States in the same way that North Korea is a puppet of China. Israel is seen as a forward operating base of the American empire that provides a beachhead and a port in the middle east for our aircraft carriers and corporations. Without Israel, we would not for decades have had highly securely placed missiles and armaments within range of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Egypt, etc.
Netanyahu and Likud are nationalists who are pulling on their leash and are making us look terrible in front of the world rn. And Netanyahu would personally likely prefer a world run by Putin rather than the current Western Rules-Based International Order that enforces principles such as human rights, and anti-corruption, and term limits for democratically elected representatives, and judicial independence.
It is unclear how we will address these issues that he has created. But no, people do not see Israel as being a fully independent country in the same way that India or Thailand, for instance, are fully independent countries
I do know, which is why I am able to recognize what mass execution and starvation in a concentration camp actually means. What do you think the Nazi's did?
