This is the real Kamala Harris – a friend to Israel, war mongers and big business, an enemy to working class people. We need a new system! #VoteSocialistArtCall (lemmy.ml)

Why does Netanyahu want Trump to be president so badly if Harris has the same position towards Israel as he does?

The arrangement is the exact opposite

When did the US do anything to hurt Israel?

Now do the same thought process for Israel...

Remember USS Liberty

Israel is the US' asset in the region. The UD props it up against nations seeking independent policies and it continues to serve in that capacity. There has been no impetus for the eventual betrayal as they have not outlived their purpose.

With an asset like that who needs enemies

As an ethnic supremacist apartheid settler colonist state genociding the indigenous population, Israel has a lot in common with the US and its history. It is, accordingly, not difficult to convince the US public to consent to everything Israel does. Maybe they feel bad about it, but ask them to do anything? Perish the thought!

Why take your voting advice from rumors of a fascist genocider?

"Hey you know how there is an unbelievably close race between a centrist who wants to maintain the status quo but may occssionally bend to public pressure and an outright madman who want burn democracy to the ground while lining his own pockets and rolling back social progress to the 1850s? You should totally protest vote for a party that doesn't have its shit together enough to even get on the ballot everywhere and has no chance at all of winning. That will show them how you really feel!"

I cannot imagine why main stream American politics doesn't take leftists seriously.

Grow up.

See, Leftists don't believe Harris is a "centrist" but a genocidal Imperialist, similar to Trump. Harris hasn't yet bent to public pressure either.

Liberals love Leftists until Leftists extend their criticism to Liberals.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Liberals become reactionary monsters when someone has consistent left politics and doesn't do whatever daddy genocide tells them.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Yep. Liberals use Leftists as a messaging aesthetic to toss aside when it comes time to get their hands dirty.

You're not going to be able to kick the Leftists off of Lemmy.ml.

See, this is the kind of thing you bring up during primaries not when the field has narrowed down such that the only other viable contender is worse.
