    When have Dems not tacitly approved genocide? Certainly not in Libya or Iraq or Afghanistan. Certainly not in Vietnam or Korea. Not even at the Rio Grande Valley.

    I don't know what the lower bound is, but they're definitely past that point at the moment.

    Starting with the original Democrat, Andrew Jackson, I'm gonna say always.

    I mean the Dems ran in 2004 election on running the Iraq war more competently. None of the Democrats in Congress (except Barbara Lee who voted against it) ever regretted their vote for the invasion

    The Dems keep funding the apartheid state. It's always been tacit acceptance of genocide to vote for them. The Dems have been gleefully complicit in every act of American imperialism in the last 100 years too. They only ever pretend to oppose the worst atrocities of the American Empire to score political points against their opponents, but once the get back into power they keep the imperialist death-machine running smoothly.

    I haven't voted Dem on the national level in a long time and never will again. I suggest you do the same.

    Voting for them has ALWAYS been tacitly approval of the genocide of Palestinians. Even their better candidates like RFK were fucking zionists

    I don't see how their support of Ukraine makes them not the worse of the two. Whatever the republicans may do locally to my mind pales in comparission to pumping billions of dollars worth of guns to the European far right

    Even libs will say voting blue is the lesser evil. So that means they accept that blue is evil.

    Not American but if I was this moment was already back in Feb 2022 when I actually found out all those western medias were literally calling out actual existing Nazis in Ukraine years ago while now trying to gaslight me into thinking these are good guys actually because have you considered Russia bad?

    But sure if you're a principled leftist old enough since at least 9/11 surely. Not to minimize Palestine at all but this is realy just

    They're better than they used to be and it's still tacit approval.
