lol. I commented on a post saying that Harris would likely be handling the situation better right now, and I got told by one of the pro-Palestine crazies that they hope my family gets murdered…
And you would understand why if you had any kind of human decency.
People are mourning their dead and you come with your petty domestic political argument? How tone deaf can you be?
Yeah I didn’t get the whole “murder your family” part
You’re really doing your part yelling at a bunch of internet strangers with no control over the situation. Congrats!
If it’s so easy to fix, what are you doing to make things better?
You do have control over the situation. You just had elections
Yup we certainly did and uncommitted happened along with a ton of others things.
Ah here we goes.
Arabs are the cause of dead Arabs am I right?
Just as much as you blaming Americans for dead Arabs and ignoring all of the complexities, nuances, and the actors that led to this war crime.
And I voted for Harris, who at least would’ve let protesters be and not arrest them. Could’ve had a chance with her once she got away from Biden. Biden admin initiated the ceasefire that everyone is clamoring about anyways.
But the other idiots here voted for Trump. Give him a year or so and it’ll be worse than it ever was under Biden. He’ll build a golf course over in Gaza as a cherry on top for you.
And before your dumbass says it, I never voted for Biden. Voted for Bernie in 2016 and 2020 and he def would’ve been the guy to settle things down.
Moron.
Then do something, idiot. It's not my county doing all this shit, it's yours
Individual people are not their government.
Ah yes let me single-handedly take down the fascist regime that has taken over our govt.
Dumbass
Edit: it’s hilarious it seems you made this account solely to yell at people you think support genocide. Why don’t you get a plane ticket and come over and do something about it if you’re so inclined? You’re a useless keyboard warrior
You said singlehandedly, not me. Join a militia or something
Yup. The Socialist Rifle Association. We’ll be ready
Ready when? You're like 20 years late
I don't take planes. I'm not a scumbag polluters.
LMAO what a bunch of idiot. Hollywood burned and they still take planes.
We should nuke the US
Then drive or walk, I don’t give a shit.
Go pound sand you incorrigible dumbass.
And what a fucking hypocrite too. You’re all like let’s start another genocide! Lmfao
American are intently genocidal (proof above and below) and thus it's the moral thing to do. It's just basic math really
You genocider piece of shit, die! Lmao
Look I know where I went wrong. Next time my genocide will be endorsed by the Democrats so you can all cheers at it because the other side is worst
Whatever they call themselves they are not pro-Palestine. I don't buy it. Maybe they're anti-Israel, but they ain't pro-Palestine.
Harris would have said not to do it while continuing to supply them with weapons.
Harris would have said she's doing everything she can to stop this whole breaking federal laws to keep it happening.
I have to believe the pro-Palestine crazies who call Harris voters Nazis are either Russian trolls or still too ashamed to admit they were conned into voting for Palestine's complete destruction.
I had conversations with many an accelerationist who supported Trump over Harris on Gaza. Pretty sure they were just full of shit and spreading misinformation.
