I can excuse genocide but I draw the line at not giving me an excuse to not care about it

Lmao. THE DEMS ARE USING YOUR RIGHTS AS A BARGAINING CHIP ffs.

Are you suggesting that the situation would be better if a different US president was in place at that time?

Not meaningfully, and that’s precisely the point. You’re arguing for contradictory stances from one comment to the next because to believe Democrats aren’t fascists too is logically inconsistent.

Thats not saying much tbf. They don’t hate mass genocide at all.

It must be hard going through life being this intentionally obtuse

And Clinton, and the other Clinton, and Colin Powell, and Condoleeza Rice, and-

Typical lib selective memory. Ukraine has been attempting drone swarms into Moscow targeting civilians for half a year at least, just recently struck at Putin’s houses to attempt a decapitation strike.

Oreshnik is a good reminder that if they really wanna throw away conventions of war, they don’t have a single way to intercept what would come back to them. Even then, the targets were completely legitimate and civilian casualties minimal (despite Ukraine regularly setting up bases in civilian centers, which is a flagrant war crime)

Regarding your edit: Obama was the president of the most racist country on earth ffs. There were plenty of Jewish SS members. Y’all have had it explained to you for ages and you turn around and say it again verbatim next time because you’re not interested in learning, you’re just cheering for your team and it makes me not at all surprised that y’all choose the guys in Nazi garb with Nazi insignias saying they’re going to do Nazi stuff first chance they get.

Multiculturalism good except for those orc hordes 🤡

Hi sir my name is Civilian Nadafed I do believe that six foot Caucasian male of athletic build represents an imminent threat, if you would call 911 they’ll be waiting for you thank you good day

It’s been fascist for decades. Fascism doesn’t become official only when it happens to white people almost as much as the rest of us.

We’re so back

This is as clear of a warning sign as you can get but nobody in the US government knows how to read

Y’all could take time and resources to investigate which one it was and under what room but since that’s apparently not how things are done anymore maybe a nice [TALKING TO AND FINGER WAGGING] should be done to every agent in the building idk

If only he’d been trampled under the vehicle 😔

Widespread debt peonage, that’s never gone wrong for any government

Not to lash out at you specifically but why are USians so stubbornly focused on the interacting with politics along the corporate party approved pathways? Even as others tell y’all it’s always back to voting, polling, petitions, campaign rallys.

Join an actual worker’s party or volunteer that time towards community outreach orgs rather than the popularity contests of millionaires funded by billionaires. Again, not to go off on you specifically but I’ve seen this aimless despair all over Lemmy, like everything you could possibly do is useless and, like, yeah, but only if you stay within that framework. That’s what the framework was built to do.

They also partook in widespread ecocide to starve the natives. They deliberately killed every buffalo they could and let them out to rot.

Cares about every genocide except for the real ones

Here’s hoping. Seems to be the one way (barring total economic collapse and the breakdown of payment systems) for gringos to get on with balkanizing themselves already.

Which, indeed, could mean the end of NATO. If it becomes clear that the “alliance” is basically you following the provisions when it serves the US and nobody following them when it doesn’t, what’s the point of all this legalese?
