At some point voter shaming becomes less cope and more just straight up threatening minorities and trans people if we don't vote for their preferred flavor of genocide.

I legitimately have no idea what point you're even trying to make.
But don't bother explaining.

It's poking fun at how liberals compromise to their right, while punching left.

Does it hurt being that stupid?

do you think the US president has control over whether or not a ceasefire happens on the other side of the planet

[–] tilefan@lemm.ee 6 points 3 months ago

we've sent them something like 700 arms shipments since october? we usually sanction governments that are committing genocide, too.

[–] mathemachristian@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago

Yes. The zionist entity is fully dependent on the US empire. Economically, militarily, geopolitically. If Biden said, "stop genocide or we will cut off all your aid and disavow you" they would have to stop either willingly or their neighbours would force them to.

More naive than op.

Yes, ask Reagan or Bush Sr who both controlled this rabid dog. You say you'll take away their weapons, they stop. It's a client state, not an ally as the relationship is by all measures entirely one-sided.

It's best to think of Israel as a 51st US state, and the president of the US ordering the war.

Those downvotes glow more than female wrestler at a techno rave.

I'd heard "everyone who disagrees with me is a bot" before, but I gotta say, "everyone who disagrees with me is an agent of the US federal government" is a new one.

It’s been happening since at least the 60’s. There’s no way to know.

[–] sub_ubi@lemmy.ml -1 points 3 months ago

Easiest way to tell is when they're losing in the comments.

[–] Deestan@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

If you were to give an estimate: How many of the people fundamentally disagreeing with you online are rational and honest people, and how many are US federal agents or in their employ? Percentage-wise.

[–] TokenBoomer@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

I still have faith in humanity, so I’d say about 2%. Most are misinformed, some are trolling, some are probably bots. I don’t think there are as many intentionally bad actors as we’re led to assume. Good question though.

Thanks for answering! I was afraid it would be taken as sarcasm but I genuinely wanted to know.
