Not surprising to me that the liberals who have decided to stick with this dog til the very end are becoming much less conciliatory to anyone who isn’t already on their side. Why bother with appearances then?

    Okay, first of all, after the pier debacle I'm pretty sure you could credibly conclude that more people have been killed by the US delivering the aid than have been helped by the aid.

    Also that pivot from "Biden is the one helping the Palestinians" to "oh well the Palestinians deserve to die anyhow" is so fast it violates causality.

      Also, let's not forget that the food and water the US is sending is basically second hand surplus and completely inappropriate for the situation

      Can't give starving people MRE's when there's incredibly specific diets that you have to provide to avoid refeeding syndrome

    Libs are the equivalent of those JRPGs bosses who look like ordinary humans at first but then after you do enough damage they're like "Not bad, but now see what I really am!" and then they transform into a gigantic grotesque monster

    And the libs' base form has 1HP

      Russia invaded Ukraine for no reason. Hamas invaded Israel for no reason. Here's 15 reasons why America invaded Iraq

    on reddit that average r/politics thread about israel now has majority pro-Palestine or at least pro-ceasefire types and the hasbara bots are now complaining about "they are using discord channels", "bots", and "where do you get your talking points". they can't believe there may be a legit groundswell against defending open genocide anymore

    but then who knows its fucking reddit could be all bullshit (probably is)

      r/Politics turns on a dime. We nearly ran that place during the 2020 primary, up until a few days before South Carolina. Somebody flipped a switch (probably activated a few hundred sleeper accounts) and it was wall to wall Biden apologia. If the comments in there appear reasonable, that just means the issue is on the back-burner. Whenever something is in public focus, it gets astroturfed to fucking hell.

    One sentence takedown: "no one voted for hitler, he was appointed by his harm reduction opponent to the chancellory."
