How tragic that man can never realize how beautiful life is until he is face to face with death.

ikiru,

you are morally obligated to vote for hitler

gulag

These libs really can’t think of anything else to do with their lives but vote

ikiru,

Yeah, I’m totally cool with skipping Thanksgiving to extend Christmas.

It’s a shame it only means extending shopping, not decorations or time off though.

ikiru,

If he didn’t, then I’m going to tell my children he did.

ikiru,

We need a Hop Sing’s community here.

ikiru,

I just watched this in pure trepidation of hearing the same crazy fascistic lib shit I hear here on lemmy (fuck you .world!), but it actually is surprisingly pretty good for what it is.

I really expected it to be a lot worse.

ikiru,

Getting pumped to house the homeless like

xi-square-up

Wish I could be there to see it happen.

18+ NBC brought Fascist War Criminal, Bibi the Baby Killer, on to try to talk down to the protesters. It's not going as well as he wanted. (CW fascist bullshit) (piped.video)

Youtube is hiding the votes but desktop Piped shows 6206 upvotes vs 7,104 downvotes despite evangelical Jesus freaks and Hasbara trolls trying to prop this bastard up.

ikiru,

And it’s really a condemnation and indictment of the education system providing Coca-Cola at schools.

ikiru,

If never endorsing a single genocide makes me a child, then the adults in the room are the problem.

Libs: Am I wrong for supporting genocide?

ikiru,

Uh, what is this professors-over-admin-workers rant?

Professors are implied here to be highly educated intelligentsia and thus don’t need lowly uneducated admin workers enforcing, what? School policy they don’t even decide?

I realize this is from a site literally called “rant” so I don’t expect it to be a rigorous essay but there needs to be some background context and clarification of what is even being discussed. It seems like an attack on admin/office workers, many of which are organized in universities, in order to maybe promote the power of the already powerful faculty? If the point is to push faculty to organize, attacking working class people with less privilege than professors is not the way to do it.

ikiru,

Damn, what a waste of precious Chartreuse.

ikiru,

I mean, I do feel safer. You should too. I voted for Biden to stop the fascist take over. I didn’t fully realize how much of a danger it was until Jan 6th. But it’s become crystal clear to me since.

I don’t feel safer because I’ve seen the slide towards fascism way before Trump and I know it will continue towards fascism because this slide includes the support and enabling of Democrats. There is no getting off this train by just electing Biden or the next assless Democrat who will just watch as fascists consolidate power.

A democracy that is against genocide is better than a fascist dictatorship that actively pursues genocide at home and abroad. How is that even a question?

It’s really telling to me you still consider this a democracy that is against genocide. The President is literally funding and arming a genocide that is happening right now. And when the choice is between a President who supports genocide or a President who supports worse genocide, how is that not already a dictatorship? How is that a functioning democracy? That is why it is even a question.

ikiru,

ok

ikiru,

All right, but this doesn’t make you any different from Trump supporters that Democrats love to accuse of (mostly correctly) being fascists.

The problem with you feeling like this critique makes you defensive and want to just go for the easy option is that there is always another option that you could do but it seems like it’s impossible for it to dawn upon you people. It’s either genocide or worse genocide. No other choice. But it’s also totally a functioning democracy worth defending, unlike those other bloodthirsty authoritarian regimes.

If you can’t figure out another option or don’t support it or think it’s impossible because it’s difficult so might as well not do it, then continue doing as you are but, yes, be aware there is blood on your hands and you are acting as a fascist supporter at best.

ikiru,

Okay??? Nobody here is saying that, so this is pure strawman

I don’t blame you if you haven’t read all the replies I got here because they are all inane, maniacal bloodthirsty American fascist babbling and a complete waste of time but basically everyone has said voting for Biden was necessary to save the country, democracy, stop worse genocide, protect the world, so on and so forth because Trump would destroy everything. Even you are implying it in the next part which I quote. So, no, it’s not an imagined strawman and people are actually saying that here.

Except it’s not… Electing a candidate doesn’t automatically make people responsible for every action that candidate takes once they’re in office. And, once again, it was either Biden or Trump. We picked the best option we had.

Voting for and electing a candidate gives them a mandate. That’s literally how elections work and their purpose. You are literally responsible for putting that person in power and for what they do with that power because you helped put them there. And anyone voting for Biden again after everything that is happening only solidifies their position as a fascist supporter.

If you’re forced to choose between a pile of shit and a pile of shit with febreeze, you’re gonna pick the latter option. Doesn’t mean you’re happy with it, and it doesn’t suddenly make you responsible when the febreeze runs out and the shit starts to stink.

It doesn’t seem like you love this country very much. You describe it in such a pessimistic way. Forced to choose between shit you’re not happy with that will support or commit genocide no matter what, huh? Does that sound like a functional democracy to you? Fact is that everyone is effected by the President but no one is forced to vote and there are other things people can do to try to build an alternative. You chose to vote to just shovel pleasant smelling shit in your mouth. Why do you think it’s worth shoveling shit in your mouth for a system you describe as forcing you to choose between such options?

Speaking of shit, stop diving in your ass to find some. You’re spewing enough already.

My bad, I thought you’d appreciate it. You’re the one here who loves to have nice smelling shit in their mouth, not me.

ikiru,

Morality sucks. It often leads people to the wrong conclusions. It’s not about moral superiority. It’s about stopping fascism and millions of deaths.

I’ll agree with you there, morality does suck. But you haven’t stopped fascism by voting for Biden, you’ve supported it.

The Azov Brigade has been denazified.

Sure.

I have read the constitution. Appointing Supreme Court justices is in fact all he can do in regards to the Supreme Court. The Republicans waited 50 years to take our freedoms away. Now we may very well have to spend 50 years voting to get them back. This is why elections matter.

Here is a transcript. You’ll want article two, section two, paragraph two.

Great, I’ve read it as well. So then how does Biden protect us from Christofascism when they literally already govern us for irrevocable life terms? How has fascism been prevented by voting for Biden? How are we not already in fascism which Biden and other Democrats have done nothing to prevent regardless of whether one voted for them or not? And you’re delusional if you think fascists will respect these weak ass institutions, that did nothing to stop them in the first place, once they are magically defeated using the same institutions which they will either control or destroy. I agree that fascism taking over the US is an existential threat to the world, and Biden did nothing about it but tell us to wait longer and vote again. Your vote didn’t stop fascism.

Biden doesn’t support the fascist right wing of Israel. It’s hard for any world leader to single out the political parties of another country. World leaders have little recourse but to interface with other world leaders. We are reaching a point where we are going to have to start denouncing countries for putting fascists in power. This of course goes against decades of foreign policy of sticking with your allies no matter what. But we are going to have to because fascist dictatorships are incentivized to betray democracies.

He’s been a friend and suporter of Netanyahu for over 40 years, almost half a century; he has continued funding, arming, and militarily as well as politically defending Israel while they commit genocide, but somehow none of that doesn’t make him a fascist supporter yet? Oh, but I didn’t know he was forced to be friendly with fascists. He has little recourse but to deal with fascist genociders, what a shame. Yet he has full power to not recognize or deal with states like Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, and so on. Weird how that works. It’s almost as if he wants to be on friendly terms with the far Right in Israel for some reason, but I guess I just don’t understand the high levels of geopolitics.

Right. Because I am [safer]. And so is everyone else.

Yeah, those Palestinian children are much safer in the ground surrounded by their families. You have supported fascism, not everyone is safer because of it. Fascists are safer, though, there’s that at least.

ikiru,

If that’s all you took away, you are the braindead one.
