What’s happening over there sucks, it is just fucking awful and noone seems to want tondo anything about. People here arguing that democrats are bad because of this, people trying to call other people hypocrits, arguing that every argument is a fallacy.

The point at the end of the day is genocide is awful, and shame on those supporting it. I’ll take these democrats to task come election time when there’s a better democrat or successful new progressive liberal to take their place. That’s what we do instead of blindly following a party, but this change is gradually and the only way it happens is if trump loses.

The best shot we have is a mixed bag of democrats and there’s no shame in working with what we have. To abstain from voting while waiting for perfection now instead of voting to begin the changes for the future is shortsighted and foolish.

Calling people bad because they’re complicit in Genocide is not a fallacy. It’s the definition of evil. Stop trying to pretend it’s a minor thing.

Crocodile tears indeed. It’s interesting that you seem to care so much about the genocide in Gaza, but can’t quite bring yourself to express the slightest concern about the illegal and vicious Russian invasion of Ukraine. Are innocent Palestinians worth caring about, but not innocent Ukrainians? According to your post history, you are in fact generally supportive of Putin’s actions in Ukraine. If you only oppose genocidal acts in which the US supplies weapons, but handwave away a literal direct invasion by Russia, then you’re just engaged in partisan propaganda. I don’t think you can be taken seriously as someone who is anti-genocide if you think that it all depends on who is committing the genocide, and/or who is the target.

Genocide does tend to rile some jimmies. I’d be more worried if it didn’t.
