No it’s not.
are they ready to put viable third party on a ballot? Right now labeling Democrats as War party says nothing. BOTH patties are War parties. Difference is Democrats somewhat care about what people say whereas Republicans care o ly about their agenda. Sending voters away from Democrats at this stage will not end war or help anyone. It is clear that Israel has enough influence over both major US parties and weapon shipments will continue. Politics is cruel: Democrats surely did the math and calculated how much will they lose on dropping Israel support from agenda. They also know Republicans will steamroll over protests and supply the same or larger amount of weaponry to Israel. So it’s a cynical math but just like Ukraine was earlier hostage to US politics Palestine now is at mercy of US election cycle and has to wait until after election when, if elected; Democrats can afford to piss of pro-Israeli groups. Republicans started that game, Dems are carrying it on. I’m also surprised that middle east cannot outspend Israel in US lobbying on behalf of Palestine. There are some of the richest countries in the world in that area. People should not die. Period. But politicians care about election cycles more. 🙁
Oh you’re the guy that doesn’t understand dual citizenship (you called me out in a previous thread) . I can’t stand 2ozma either so have an angry upvote.
To be clear : I just don’t like being called a liar. My mom is American, I grew up in Italy.
I remember you. I understand dual citizenship just fine. You didn’t bring it up until after i pointed out an inconsistency in your story. Not saying i don’t believe you, it was just hard to believe that “American gun culture” was some kinda surprise to you, if you had been immersed in it.
Thank you. That does make sense as I didn’t state it at the outset. I also understand that thread was a little heated and maybe I came off as a little confrontational. It seems every time he-who-shall-not-be-named is mentioned people lose their minds (and I understand why).
Meanwhile, I’m on the frontpage daily and one of the users that creates top engagement for Lemmy.
Yes, you are a vociferous little propaganda birdy, I’ll give ya that. Not really the flex you imagined, methinks.
You absolutely don’t create engagement.
Frankly, you poison every fucking thread with simplistic takes accusing everyone of being genocidal until the word is now meaningless coming from you.
You make conversation impossible by flooding the zone with “fisher-price-my-first-politik” level of thinking that always dead ends with “well I don’t support gEnOcIdE!” Like you’ve actually made a point.
You’re on the front page because of your spam rate not your content. This shit is a cancer on lemmy.
Ew propaganda
for those who will moan “BUT BABY STEPS!” and “PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION!” at the end of the article is a snippet about Bill Ayers
When we come back, we look back at the 1968 DNC, when police violently attacked protesters who were calling for an end to the war in Vietnam. We’ll be joined by longtime Chicago activist Bill Ayers, who was arrested then as a member of Students for a Democratic Society, and our own Juan González, in the streets in 1968 here in Chicago, where he now lives. Stay with us.
that is fifty six years people
no but one of the people who protested against the war in Vietnam are protesting again at the same place in Chicago
their story is continued at the bottom of the article
basically protesting for the same things they did back then because neither the Democrats nor the Republicans have done anything to change the current narrative we are living in
