    Show me the current genocide of queer people in america.

    Show me 1000’s of queer people being starved, left without power, medical help, water.

      Show me the current genocide of queer people in america.

      The same place the genocide of queer people in Germany was in 1932. Do you know what happened in 1933? Do you know what happened between 1933 and 1945?

      But please, do tell me who I should vote for that has a statistically likely chance of winning the U.S. presidential election in November and will also definitely end the genocide in Israel. Give me that name.

        Idgaf who you vote for.

        Once again, you do you, but don’t come to me wanting my vote to help you re-elect Ol’ Genocidin Biden.

        I’m not here to stop you, I am here to make sure everyone realizes they are supporting someone who has ACTIVELY helped Israel commit genocidal actions.

        Not passively, he bypassed congress twice already to send them more fucking shells.

        You are once again hung up on what someone might do compared to what they know someone else is doing.

          The whole phrase ‘bypassing Congress’ is propaganda. It’s literal weapons sales. Those are not required to go through Congress. I disagree with those sales, but what he’s doing is perfectly legal and not backhanded.

            It is legal, it is backhanded, and to add onto it. I believe he ran it by Congress later on, and they okayed it.

            That doesn’t change the fact that he did it, and bypassed congressional oversight.

            We can’t be OK with someone else being what we don’t want them to be this because they’re on our side.

            If you don’t call out your own side, just as much as you call anyone else’s, then it just doesn’t matter.

            Why are we all calling out Israel so much but aren’t surprised at what Hamas?

            Because one is so obvious that it doesn’t need to be fucking done, and the other is people that we thought were going to be better than that being so much worse than we thought they were.

              I am not saying it’s okay. In fact, in the comment you replied to, I said I don’t approve.

              We need laws to prevent this sort of action.
