Oh yeah. I know/knew several NY Republicans who are all “fiscally conservative and socially liberal” people, who only vote on economic policy.

US firearm enthusiasts would be the biggest problem.

Both communism and capitalism are naturally occurring in the animal kingdom in a reductive state. Communism is just more sustainable.

Same with Cuomo in NYC. Can’t stand the guy, but he took covid as seriously as Fauci suggested. It was rough, since the first hot spot was in New Rochelle and we didn’t know much about it at first. Nevertheless, people bitched and moaned about lost business while refrigerated trucks full of corpses were lining the streets.

Just curious, is censorship more of a socialist or anarchist quality?😄

So then you missed my point. If you focus on division, you’ll be doing it all alone.

Anarchy is not left in the US unless they’ve all of a sudden come around on social programs.

This was my MySpace tagline 20 years ago. Glad to see it still lands.

You can buy a shattaf (bidet sprayer) for like $20.

Right here, genius. https://lemmy.world/comment/16593887

Smug quotes are a perfect addition to your moral superiority. I’ll try to remember it when I’m protesting with JVP, while innocent migrants are sent to torture prisons for life without due process and the Palestinians are eradicated, all because you’re above doing anything to stop it.

False. I said the choices were genocide, or genocide and fascism. That’s where our debate began.

Good luck in life telling everyone how superior you are while distorting the world around you to fit your narrative. I’m done with your nonsense.

You are again drawing a false comparison, yet I’m the dishonest one? You’re either willfully ignorant, or delusional.

So you’re fine with people being throw into vans and flown into El Salvadoran gulags? Trans people not being allowed to identify as their gender identity? Married women being able to vote? People being allowed to protest Israel?

All of that is fine with you, because you didn’t have to fill in a bubble on a piece of paper that would have resulted in a similar outcome for Palestinians?

Get over yourself and grow up. This is real life.

Cool. So you’re in agreement that there was no way to stop the genocide.

Then why not vote against the fascist dictator? Oh, because you have superior morals when it comes to the Palestinians, but not the Hispanics and trans people in the US. Got it.

Are you completely outside of your mind? Trump is shipping massive bulldozers to level the West Bank and turn it into a billionaire resort, with no intention of returning the Palestinians to their land once it’s done.

Ask yourself this, between Harris and Trump, which one is more likely to withhold munitions and military aid from Israel? Remember, this isn’t “ideal land.” Those are your only two choices.

It’s not my party. I’ve been left of the Democrats since the 90s. It’s the party that more closely aligns with my values between the only two that can win a US Presidential Election.

I believe you, and I’m sure you’re not the only one with that problem. I didn’t say it was the reason Bernie lost, because I’m fully aware of Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Hillary’s collusion, but it was a contributing factor.

I volunteered to direct foot traffic for the general election, and chatted up several other volunteers about the disappointing results of the primary. They told me that they couldn’t believe how many registered independents and no party affiliation voters they had to turn away. Apparently partisan primary requirements aren’t common knowledge, so I’m sharing this information to prevent other people from having the same experience.

There are two parties that can with a US presidential election. The choices were bad or worse for Palestinians. Voting for anyone other than bad, is permitting worse to take office.

Welcome to first past the post. It’s a civic duty, not a representation of who you are. Is it fair? Fuck no. That’s how it works for now, and the West Bank will be a billionaire resort thanks to people’s “higher morals.” Way to go. Hope they sleep better at night. The Palestinians sure won’t.
