See: America has Nazis too!
Always has.
American Nazi
Average American power holder
he should be removed from office.
He should be thrown from a bridge, actually.
Yeah, we ran that bridge over with a ship…
he should be removed to a jail cell.
Yeah, in Canada this would already be unambiguously criminal. Once the new law passes it will also carry a potential sentence of life, which is based.
The whole region should be placed under international administration, just like Germany after the war.
It is the international meddling that caused the problem
It was before, under the League of nations. Jewish terrorists under Irgun and Stern group (which later formed IDF) bombed the international administration to get land and get them out. When England gave up, Israel took the land
He’s just saying the quiet part out loud.
He voted nay to “Providing for the expulsion of Representative George Santos from the United States House of Representatives.” Another old fart that graduated bible college
how is this any different from Genocide Joe’s or any congressperson’s position? Israel has already dropped the equivalent of several nukes on Gaza, and they still have the US’s unconditional backing.
Genocide Joe is much more polished than this loser. It’a genocide with American characteristics.
Asshole.
I begin to wonder if this is how these fuckers planned to slide out of sight all along. I know they don’t seem very bright, and they aren’t, but they are crafty. Trump isn’t a ‘smart’ man - he’s crafty. Smart and crafty are two completely different things. There’s been a rash of this type headline - republicans spouting batshit crazy lies and spinning them into worse lies.
Was there a bachelor’s to be had in “Lie Your Ass Off - 101 → 666”? (i don’t remember this being a course objective during my time in school)
So anyway, they spout some shit like this even they don’t believe in order to be kicked off the team and into ticket sales… cash baby! Hard to follow with “donation” rules.
…say something stupidly preposterous - get kicked out - disappear into the fundraiser scam… more money in their bank.
Sad because it is true.
Doesn’t the congressman know that you aren’t supposed to say the plan outloud? You are just supposed to provide all the bombs and arms required no strings attached. These new republicans just don’t understand decorum.
It’s not like anyone in the Israeli government was hiding the fact that their plan was genocide either. It’s only the state department and mainstream media that are pretending to be shocked that there’s ‘collateral damage’.
I don’t think the Man from Galilee would appreciate any of this.
It’s always projection (when they say genocide Joe).
The Palestinian people are very much in danger of being final solutioned, under our sitting president.
A lot of citizens also say that. Why do Americans think their election is an Angel vs satan. It’s just bad vs worse.
Truth.
You know genocide existed before nukes right?
lmao the people calling him genocide joe are not republicans, if the original post somehow didn’t make that very clear to you already
what a reddit-brained reply
Oh yeah we’d nevvvveer have a bunch of the “I used to be Democrat voter until event _____, now I’m all in Republican” people show up with their new attempted catchline. Noooo, would nevvvver happen. Not online.
We aren’t voting for Biden or Trump.
Those are the choices though. Either at worse the status quo or the people who want it harder faster and to potentially bring it home. I would like to change joe biden’s mind, and take away funding for Israel’s death machine, so I’ll reach out to my reps, but I won’t sit out. Sitting out implies that the magnitude of this issue is unimportant. Only the issue itself.
Those are only the choices if I assume moderates and liberals would rather lose to MAGA than make material compromises with leftists and progressives. I’ll be voting 3rd party in the hopes that they will realize they can’t win elections on their own and be more open to working together in the future.
You’re being sarcastic, but literally no, we haven’t had anyone saying Biden’s genocide has made them all in republicans, and I challenge you to show otherwise.
you haven’t encountered very many actual leftists, have you?
edit: you’re a lot closer to being one of those republicans you hate so much than any leftist who wants to hold both of your war-mongering parties accountable for their role in a genocide btw
Conservatives aren’t the ones calling him Genocide Joe.
Conservatives cosplaying as liberals online
They aren’t either
I don’t think anyone who says “genocide joe” agrees with what Joe is doing quietly nor what Tim Walberg is saying out loud.
God sometimes when I read stuff like this as a post I reflexively down vote because I hate it so much until I remember it’s just a post calling attention to someone being a piece of shit and not agreeing with them. I up voted again to fix it lol
Yep. I reach for the Disagree button before I realize it’s a valuable/valueless button. And this shit is of immense value for history.
I have this same reaction quite often…
It just occurred to me that there are probably people who look at those bombings - after the war was effectively over BTW - not as evil (my view), nor as a regrettable but necessary way to avert American deaths, but as an actual heroic act.
Jesus, how do I live in a world where there are people like that running around having normal lives…?
The argument doesn’t just include American deaths, but Japanese deaths as well. You may not agree, but the us just finished in Europe far past the point where the war was effectively over, and there was the belief that the Japanese would always take it further than the germans. Part of it was the japanese war strategy. They wanted the enemy to think they would have to cut through them to the last man woman and child, to get them to give up. There was a belief that maybe a shock would do something, but there was also doubt to that. 7 more bombs were going to be ready to soften up japanese defenses during downfall. They thought they would have to do much more damage.
Edit: I messed up my words in a way that subtlety changed the meaning of a sentence.
subtlety
subtly
That’s not the real reason. It was meant to scare the USSR, Japan was already defeated.
If you were in the other thread about these bombings yesterday, you’d see that viewpoint is basically what the US teaches in school. It’s disturbing to see that so many people actually believe this was for the good of humanity.
but as an actual heroic act
They’ve been doing it since at least 2014:
Israelis Watch Bombs Drop on Gaza From Front-Row Seats
(Sorry for the nyt article, here’s the guardian as well)
That continues to be my parents’ view (I suspect the same is true for many of our parents). It’ll be a few generations before the fiction around Hiroshima gets wiped away. Hell, the '21 Tulsa massacre is only now getting some actual cultural awareness, and that’s only because it was depicted in the first scene of The Watchmen.
