generalpotato,

Shunning him for having the blood of 20k kids on his hands is not “fixating”. Overlooking a crime as egregious as this in the interest of things like the economy/financial stability and general well being of self/our society is exactly what’s wrong with the world and how we’ve gotten here.

Maybe you should “fixate” more so that you have some more perspective on what it means to lose a child or a loved one.

generalpotato,

Even accepting your numbers,

I see where this is going already… wow

why is the blame entirely on Biden for this

Because he’s the one signing multibillion dollar aid packages with our tax dollars funding a genocide and literally ignoring calls for ceasefire. I mean, the only way you don’t know that is if you’re living under a rock.

Biden is literally the only reason aid has gotten through again after the Israeli blockade, Biden is the only reason Israel is practicing any restraint at all, Biden is the only reason that there’s even a hope of a ceasefire or lasting peace.

You must not know how much influence the US has over Israel. It literally takes one phone call to reign in Israel and Netanyahu to stop their reign genocidal campaign. The US has repeatedly shot down Palestinian voices calling for a peace deal, recognizing Palestinian UN membership, ICC votes on investigating war crimes and trialing Netanyahu. Biden is the only reason why this has dragged on for 7 months. This could have been over on literally any day after Oct 7th. Rafah was supposed to Biden’s “red line” and now that’s being invaded as well. Some job working towards peace. As an example, see how the US reacted (it literally said Israel was on it’s own) when Israel wanted to “retaliate” against Iran for launching attacks on it’s airspace and how Israel piped down against Iran whilst “vowing” to retaliate.

Seems really like you should be blaming the far right government actually carrying out the war, and not the centre-left government an ocean away whose been trying to walk the line between scolding Netanyahu at every turn, and also trying not to piss off the 60% of the country that supports Israel.

Seems like you really should be reading up more on how influential US foreign policy really is instead of clinging to democratic talking points meant to deflect from complicity in this event.

generalpotato,

And you say this because??? Oh because you heard it once and now you parrot it fucking everywhere even though it couldn’t be further than the truth. Israel is not a puppet of the U.S, and the U.S can’t just control it.

Because literally every peace deal Hamas has offered has been “Leave Gaza and let us prepare to do another October 7th”

axios.com/…/gaza-ceasefire-resolution-un-security…

I know that certain media sources love to put it this way, but Biden has not been ignoring calls for ceasefireBlinken has literally been the one setting up most of the Ceasefire proposals that Hamas has constantly shot down. But I’m sure you know Hamas has been an opponent of peace at every step, just as they bombed the southern border crossing where aid was starting to come through, Hamas doesn’t care about the people of Gaza, it wants to cling to power at any chance, even if that means starving a city on international TV to try and bring the world against Israel.

See how much of a fucking idiot you’re being?

generalpotato,

Ahhh there it is… iF yOu dOnT foR BiDeN, YoU VoTE FoR TruMp

No genius. The democrats had 4 years to out forth a viable candidate that wasn’t Biden, but they didn’t. They could have picked Bernie instead of Hilary in 2016, but they didn’t. America will survive another Trump president despite popular rhetoric. Palestine will be erased, but history won’t forget.

At the this point, the American democracy is already fucked because we’re being forced to choose between two geriatric assholes.

Spare me your bullshit.

generalpotato,

Are you capable of not deflecting and talking about Biden’s policies objectively?

generalpotato, (edited )

That’s a “read and reread my response above” if you have trouble understanding and fuck off if you’re going to put words in my mouth.

Thanks for playing.

generalpotato,

Is it? Because I haven’t seen one response to the sources and the arguments I made that was actually in “good faith” ironically.

Keep trying though. :-)

generalpotato,

Cool… cool cool cool.

generalpotato,

If the honorary doctorate is in enabling a genocide and trying to gas light the nation and the world, then sure. Well deserved.

Americans are choking on surging fast-food prices. "I can't justify the expense," one customer says (www.cbsnews.com)

Kevin Roberts remembers when he could get a bacon cheeseburger, fries and a drink from Five Guys for $10. But that was years ago. When the Virginia high school teacher recently visited the fast-food chain, the food alone without a beverage cost double that amount....

generalpotato,

Death of fast food is a treat we can all look forward to. Keep raising those prices geniuses!

After Raids, NYPD Denied Student Protesters Water and Food in Jail (theintercept.com)

Students arrested during the police crackdown on protests at universities in New York City last week were denied water and food for 16 hours, according to two faculty members at Columbia University’s Barnard College who collected reports from students who were inside....

generalpotato,

Taking a page out of the IDF playbook. (Unsurprisingly).

generalpotato,

It’s just salad, salad bowls, salad wraps and salad more.

generalpotato,

Provided to him on a silver fucking platter… I mean, it’s astonishing how incompetent he is/was/or is becoming. Holy shit.

generalpotato,

Spitting facts. Dems have and will always have blood on their hands for making Trump what he is. Fucking Hilary’s campaign propped him up so that they could push the right to extremes and paint them an easy target.

Guess what happens when you play with fire?

Ukraine backers blast ‘double standard’ after allies rush to Israel’s defense (www.politico.eu)

If the United States and its allies can rush to Israel’s defense in the skies, shooting down dozens of drones and missiles fired by Iran, why can’t they do the same for Ukraine — which has suffered under Russia’s missile attacks for more than two years?...

generalpotato, (edited )

This. This is what it boils down to. This is why Pakistan and India keep getting away with the shit they pull along with all other nuclear nations. The moment Iran claims nuclear capable, “restraint” will be shown. With the amount of back channel communication that’s been happening between the US and Iran over the Gaza and Israel situation, it’s very likely they already have shown their hand and ability to be nuclear, and therefore the calculus is now extremely complex compared to something like Iraq and Afghanistan.

This also explains why Iran demonstrated and telegraphed their attack the way they did and the US agreed to it, despite the “Iran is the devil” rhetoric being perpetuated worldwide.

Hate to say it, but might is right and has always been.

Edit: To add, if they admit they are nuclear capable publicly, they are inviting more sanctions and another escalation which is the last thing they need given the state of their economy. They will also be on the back foot because Israel gets the moral high ground for being right about their nuclear ambitions.

generalpotato,

100%. There are fewer bigger security mistakes than giving up nukes. It’s a case study of why you shouldn’t just trust “diplomacy”.

generalpotato,

She can go get over a fucking cliff. The audacity of this idiot telling people how to vote.

generalpotato,

HDD - Remembers numbers loudly is on point for 90s/2000s disk drives. 😂

generalpotato,

You gonna go say the same shit to blacks, latinos, trans, jews, asians etc next when they say something is offensive to them?

Maybe your entire bigoted outlook on life is a problem. When a group of people have expressed concerns over something being offensive, stop doing it.

This is like sticking your hand in fire and not expecting to get burnt.

generalpotato,

Using caps mid sentence indicates aggression. I’m not sure how often you use the internet, but keep it mind next time you decide to use it when somebody else isn’t using it.

Lol @ conspiracy. Sorry to have knocked you off your high horse there buddy. Who would have thought people can be ignorant regardless of religiosity right?

generalpotato,

Learn how to emphasize and get your point across better if you’re going to get into arguments. Using caps makes you look like a 12 year old.

Ohh? So now you think this isn’t deliberate action to provoke but instead it’s a mistake by the supplier due to not knowing what is and what isn’t sensitive toward others? What moved the goal post?

I didn’t, that was sarcasm for calling my argument as a “conspiracy” when asking for accountability when it hurts Muslims. But please feel free to keep skirting past the issue and keep making pointless statements. Seeing how this isn’t going anywhere, have a good day.

generalpotato, (edited )

Ditto for “leftist” lunatics.

generalpotato,

“Free world, lmao”.

Free speech doesn’t mean free of consequences. It applies to racism, xenophobia and hate speech that targets a specific group or incites violence.

Don’t be surprise that extremists come at you if you’re going to act like 2 yr old with the responsibility that comes with free speech. Everyone has a moral obligation to be citizens in good faith.
