    First of all, what the fuck? And second of all, i don’t see why republicans should be brought up when democrats do something wrong. You are using whataboutism to justify… checks notes vetoing an investigation into war crimes and genocide. I don’t see any call to action to vote Republican here. If democrat actors don’t want to be called out for hypocritical evil, then they should not do evil and be hypocritical about it.

    I was calling for Biden to step down from the election over how he handled Israel/Palestine, and i was right to do so! You don’t get a free pass to genocide because someone else would have done it harder, or because it happened to some ancestor.

        Sp you support genocide when a Democrat does it? Genocide is alwaus genocide and should be called out regardless of who is doing it.

            Trump should be condemned for a million reasons. And there were dozens of posts this week about how he was sabotaging negotiations. But those “peace deals” are basically giving Israel everything they want, including troops along the Gaza/Egypt border, which no one else supports. And there is still zero talk about holding war criminals accountable from the US or Israeli camps.

          Frauds should be called out. Linkerbaan cares zero for Palestinians.

          Sp you support genocide when a Democrat does it

          Is indicative of a fraud also.

            Trump isn’t the one shipping military aid to Israel. Trump isn’t the one vetoing every UN resolution involving Israeli war crimes. Trump might want Israel to bulldoze over Gaza and the West Bank, but he isn’t the one facilitating what is happening there right now. Palestinians dont care who is the president of the US, because either way they get slaughtered while those conducting the genocide go unpunished. We need to call put our current leaders to do the right thing, even if their opposition is going to do an even worse thing.

                Succeed at what? Calling out the Democrats for doing something evil? Blind support for a political party is what made the GOP the comically evil institution it currently is. Criticism of the Democrats is not support for Trump. You will support the Democrats no matter what, and don’t care how many Palestinians have to die to reach your goal. Guess what, Trump has literally nothing to do with what is going on in Palestine right now. Harris needs to win Michigan if she wants to beat Trump, and literally all ahe has to do is start holding Israel accountable and the massive Muslim population around Detroit will support her. She wont lose support among any groups, but will have a massive advantage in one of the key voting groups in the election. But the Democrats don’t do that,because they support the genocide as well,they just wish ot was done quietly so no one would be able to call them out on it.

                “Never Again!” doesn’t have a special clause for if a fascist might win an office, or if a Jewish state is doing the genocide. Anyone who claims otherwise is evil and history will judhe them accordingly.

        Facts? Ignore? I didn’t ignore them. I dismissed them. You claimed that he posts at what would be 9am in eastern Europe. I assume you are alluding to russia? Ok? I post at 11:00 at night sometimes too. And it’s irrelevant. Anyone can call out our blatant hypocrisy.

        As for the claim i am not arguing in good faith … are you?! You seem to be Dutch Ruddering with givesomefucks chronostriggerwarrning. You claim the OP is pro harming Palestine because he… is upset that a Biden official was ordered to block an investigation into Israel’s obvious genocide of Palestinians…. And then declare here is a plant who is trying to back… Trump, who’s stance is to show Israel “how its really done”. You know that makes you sound deranged, yea?

          I had to look up what this weird shit even is. Uh, so yeah, I’m totally sexually gratifying someone who just banned me for calling out the fraud.

            Well you are right in that i got the wrong rudder mate. I meant to say chronostriggerwarning, not givesomefucks. Givesomefucks at least had an argument. You on the other hand avoid arguments like the plague. You refuse to make one, and you refuse to argue against one. And at this point I’m going to make the assumption thats because your position is untenable.

                Do you even know what an argument is?

                I never made an argument, bad faith or otherwise. You committed an ad hominem attack on the OP, refused to argue against any of his points. Then did repeated cringe high fives with your rudder mate.

                The only thing i did was call you out for doing so, by asking for justification for why you are attacking the character of the OP. If you want to claim that request is too burdensome, that’s fine by me, as that’s a reflection on your character, and was what i was highlighting in the first place. So well done on that.

                  ad hominem attack

                  This is a bad faith argument alone. It’s a way of dismissing a valid concern about a person’s long history of doing something. You’re pretending I have to re-prove it every time someone says I do but I’m under zero obligation to be sealioned.

                    No, what you did was text book ad hominem attack. In the literal sense. The only way to revert that is to justify why the character of the OP is important to his argument. Which you never successfully did. You alluded that he could be a Russian plant, that’s why he’s against Biden, because of the time he posts.

                    If you had, say evidence that he posted on conservative instances in a way that is pro trump…. Or pro Israel… or what have you… it still would not make the argument he made invalid. And you would still be guilty of an ad hominem attack.

                    The argument that Biden directed a veto preventing the investigation into Israel is fact and is damning in its own, even if made by a supposed trumper.
