The hypocrisy comes when millions of vulnerable people they pretend to care about actually suffer as a direct result of their nihilism. Acceptable costs, right?

It really is shocking that more people on the "Lemmy left" don't see this. The US is one of the most tolerant places in the world for a bunch of otherwise marginalized groups. Pretending that it is irredeemable and must be destroyed because of your cold war grudge is destroying one of their biggest safe spaces and condemning them to suffer.

Hypothetically if you had to chose between supporting Israel or Biden winning in 2024 which would you choose?

Why do you think my comment has anything to do with Israel?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You didn't answer my question so I dunno why you think I would answer yours.

Just hypothetically would you rather have a duck sized horse or a horse sized duck?

By not answering you have chosen to support Israel and Joe Biden loses the election in this completely hypothetical scenario.

Buddy I can't help you with these delusions. I'm not that kind of doctor.

Now I'm going to repeat: I'll be voting 3rd party in the upcoming election.
