“My tax dollars going into ruining that country so yeah it is an “our on issues””

“other than america funding Israel how tho??”

lenin-rage

Is it normal for communists to feel as dismally about the people of their own country as I do now?

    It’s crazy how in the dark people are kept about their own countries meddling.

    Israel only exists because of Britain and America.

      Joe Biden is older than the state of Israel. Donald Trump is also older than the state of Israel. Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are too!

    It isn’t other people’s conflict when your country is the major player in the genocide. I hope burgerland implodes so I don’t have to see these annoying concerns about “pls think about our democracy 🥺😢”.

    I hate to even say this, but leave Palestine aside for a second: both the Democratic and Republican parties were completely happy to sell you out and have a million Americans die to COVID. That’s more than 200x as many deaths as 9/11. If you want the situation to improve at home because you’re too much of a chauvinist to consider what’s happening in Palestine, at least set your aim a little higher than being slaughtered to calm the markets.

      I think 9/11 is just a political tool at this point because it’s certainly not about the death count

      This is exactly what Stalin meant by the “a single death is a tragedy” quote

        It was likely a fake quote but I do find it funny how liberals use it to frame Stalin as callous and unscrupulous when the last five or so years have been instructive.

    Ok, so what’s the deal with East Palestine and what did Biden do to remedy railway safety after fucking over the rail workers union in their contract negotiations which included proposals for safe practices?

        Right? How could anything be a bigger problem than a whole country being exterminated? Oh no, the big bad orange guy is going to do 1% of what Israel is doing to the Palestinians to American minorities! Which the current guy has already approved of!

    Curious! I also don’t think we should be sticking our noses in other people’s conflicts! Hence the “Free Palestine”.

    It seems like, by the numbers, people are overwhelmingly on the pro-palestine side there, so why feel dismally about the people?

      I admit my doomer moments aren’t entirely rational. Still is sobering seeing a nonzero amount of people be this astronomically dense and self-centered but that’s life.
