I know nothing should surprise me with these fucking people at this point, but my mouth still dropped open when I read that.
It would be the funniest thing if they were exact copies
Fucking grotesque. Hey why not make a lampshade of human skin next time. Sick fucks.
Wait, this is real?
Irony is dead
It’s real
I was thinking the Onion is trying to be creative but damn reality is worse than fiction can be.
Imagine the outrage if a world leader gifted another leader a golden model airplane after 9/11.
Insanity.
Phew. Good thing we didn’t vote for Kamala.
/s
You do remember that this attack happened while Kamala was VP.
I would feel sick if the candidate I voted for was cheering Israel for massacring thousands of innocent people. May I remind you that the DNC barred the pro-Gaza crowd? May I remind you that Trump and Biden were competing on who is the closest Israeli ally?
Yep, having Trump as a president sucks, but at least my hands are not filled with blood.
Did you vote for Kamala? Or did you allow trump to get elected? Guess what, your hands are stained with innocent blood either way. Your hands fill up faster with trump.
I was not complicit in getting either of them elected. My hands are clean, and so is my conscience.
This is prime “enlightened third party voter” meme material right here.
Must be nice in that ivory tower.
And this is prime “You didn’t vote for my shit candidate, therefore you are literally Hitler”.
It is certainly nice to not have blood on my hands.
Oh I didn’t say that.
I just find it amusing when folks claim that their conscience and hands are clean when they played a part in getting trump elected.
It was a decision telling of priorities, and sending a message, or maintaining a clear conscience, was likely deemed more important than the ramifications a trump presidency. That’s why I mentioned the ivory tower - I assumed that you thought you weren’t going to be too affected by a trump presidency? Either that, or you wanted to maintain a clean conscious despite that? The latter is admirable in it’s own way, but i believe less likely when looking at entire populations.
“played a part in getting trump elected” this is so vague though. Because I can argue that you played a part on getting Trump elected by voting for Democrats for the past 50 years.
The lower class has been dying. It’s either death by a thousand cuts or whatever Trump and his cronies are doing. The faster the death the faster the lower class will react.
So you can see that as the silver lining on Trump’s election.
You had a choice to make, either vote for one of them, assuming you’re American and can vote, or be complicit with whomever was elected. You can trick yourself into believing you had no impact on the outcome, but assume what I said earlier was true, you either helped trump get elected, and therefore have blood on your hands, or you voted against trump, and have blood on your hands, but less blood.
The result would be the same no matter the candidate. Gaza was razed to the ground while the democrats were in power. And not only that, but they actively backed the Israeli government. If we allow ourselves to betray our moral principles, then we are on a downwards spiral where each candidate can say and do whatever they want, as long as the candidate next to them is a tiny bit worse.
Hence why I said you had blood on your hands no matter what. This is where harm mitigation comes in, by not voting, you agree to whoever is elected, in this case trump who wants to further ethnic cleansing. This was the last election in the US as we know it. And trump isn’t a “tiny bit worse”.
Who said anything about not voting? There were not just two candidates last time I checked.
I agree to whoever gets elected, because that is how democracy works. As far as I am concerned that might be the last election in the US. period. And the Democratic Party is partly to blame.
As a transperson targeted by the Trump administration, your hands have some of my blood on them. I’m A-Positive about that.
Who do you blame more? The DNC or third party voters?
They’re both equally as guilty.
The DNC for Neo-Liberal Cowardness and Supporting a never-ending war machine, and The Third Party Voters for throwing away a chance to save LGBT lives in favor of huffing faerie dust.
