Most everyone here is opposed to genocide.

Most everyone here is also voting for the Democrats, instead of agreeing to vote for a third party who is opposed to genocide

Again… everyone is against genocide. Your bad faith accusations aren’t working on anyone anymore. It’s just… cringy as fuck now.

And so you know- the third party clowns currently running have no viable end game to shut shit down over there. Go ahead and look it up. They say they do- but have no clear answer on how they’d do it that is even remotely viable. But it all looks good to the smug edgelords that think they’re somehow unique because they are against dOiNg gEnoCiDes!

What part of cutting military funding by 90% (Claudia de la Cruz's platform) would fail to stop funding Israel?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

You really think she'd have the support of Congress to do such a thing? In a system like America's? That's ridiculous. You should know full well such a thing would never happen even if Cruz were to magically win the presidency.

Talk is cheap, and it's easy for third parties to say they'll make such sweeping changes when they don't have to actually back it up. They can tell you what you want to hear, but at the end of the day it's all talk because such policies will never get past Congress.

They will have a barely above zero chance of successfully doing this. My god you people will believe anything won’t you?

I wonder why they didn’t just say they’re going to end world hunger…. Or cure cancer.

De la Cruz is a nobody that has no idea what there doing and no chance to ever see a position of authority to create let alone enact any policy that would produce meaningful change.

She’s a spoiler. And at this point- I’m beginning to think it’s purposeful.
