They did a minor retcon later. The scene is shown again and as well as the original shadow (And nibbler's eye in the bin), you see Fry's shadow too, since he time travels back there in the Why of Fry. Unfortunately I can't remember which episode this is in at the minute

And you're punishing the Palestinians for it, for some reason.
Trump is an embarrassment worldwide. And the DNC lost to him twice. If that can't get you to criticise them I don't know what will.
Blame the voters to some extent, sure. People are stupid. But it's the party's job to win the votes. If that wasn't true why campaign at all?
So you have decided that the people suffering a genocide don't get your help because of how people who "advocated for it" behaved? Literally punishing people who did nothing wrong. You are not obligated to, of course, but as a moral stance it fucking sucks.
The people who advocated for it that I saw (including myself) tended to say "this terrible policy will lose Harris votes, she should change it." And they were right. The people who fucked you over were the ones who told you it would all be fine because Trump is worse and apparently because they thought the American electorate were super logical?
Blame the people who's fault it actually is. The people who misjudged how the policy would affect turnout. And the people who actually support Trump, of whom there are way too fucking many.
Furthermore, even if I wasn't this bitter, it wouldn't matter because there's literally nothing I can do now.
There wasn't much you could do anyway, unfortunately. But it's the same now. You can advocate. Vocally support BDS. Biden didn't care anyway and Harris said she would continue to support Israel.
Obviously I agree that you should prioritise, but it seems a little silly to turn your back on something I'm sure you agree with just because the DNC fucked you by ignoring voters and losing the election to Trump.
Imo if you're resisting Trump you're all on the same side.
You said you no longer have solidarity. What did I misinterpret?
My country's politics are shitty so now I don't care about an ongoing genocide? What the fuck did I just read
You can care about two things. More even. Cutting your solidarity with Palestine over this is pathetic, I find it hard to believe you had any in the first place if this is enough to break it.
And let's not forget that "people who generally agree with me except don't like supporting genocide" are much less of an issue than "people who think my trans friends are mentally ill cis people, hate all immigrants and actively encourage the genocide." Tens of millions voted for Trump. They are the problem.
It says they welcome anything from social democracy to anarchism so how you got "tankie community" is a mystery to me. Yet another chapter in "everyone I don't like on Lemmy is a tankie."
I have been subscribed for a while and haven't seen any support of Stalin or Mao or whoever. I think these people are monsters and yet I'm still here.
You don't know how I voted.
It's not an issue, they can just make it up. You see, everyone is stupid when you imagine that they have a stupid position and ignore any evidence to the contrary.
In that spirit, I'm pretty sure the person you're talking to just took a shit on their ballot. So really this is all their fault.
Hilarious. Why do a less committed version of the same shitty politics as the other party? Who the fuck is this going to win over? Did you miss what happened in November?
I would ask if they were high but that would encourage creativity and awaken any remaining embers of idealism so it can't be the case.
Just leaving this here for no particular reason https://youtu.be/3cdqQ2BdgOA?si=eDv9_1tiy_bvlFCJ
Sorry, did I miss something and the democrats actually won? No? Then they were pretty fucking important it seems.
Despite being highly upvoted and the comment section agreeing with the onion-y-ness as far as I saw. Ridiculous. Still a good post
Nice! Clearly I blocked it out because of the trauma of the ending
