Because the Dem party is the Republican party of yesterday, not of today.

In 2038+ when they are the ex Republicans and Democrats have "compromised" their way to the current Republican parties position, they'll be there.

They're just supporting the same right wing Republican policies they have supported all along, the Dems just represent that viewpoint now.

Because it's one of the few issues that the Democratic party and Republican party both tout as a problem.

Why does it really matter that issues can be "discussed" if the issue being discussed is as atrocious as what Israel is doing to Palestine.

Israel and the US know that what they're doing is wrong. Them and their crony countries aren't going to change course because of this.

It doesn't exactly prevent WW2 if they tell Hitler to stop and he doesn't listen...unless of course they choose to let him continue his goals unimpeded rather than go to war, citing their documented disagreement as sufficient counter action...

How many users does IG have that are registered as under 18?

I'm 25 now, but I still always say I was born in the 80s out of habit...

It's a good step, but it won't fix things.

I used to find it utterly hilarious before I switched to Lemmy, how redditorshated twitterx and twitterx users, then would praise reddit and the reddit community lmfao.

Then you're letting sentiment drive you rather than reason.

So you wouldn't want the genocide to end if it came at the cost of someone killing themselves? Why?

Is the entire Palestinian population who are suffering a genocide worth less than a western life to you?

But I refuse to allow that someone's opinion should be given more weight than mine just because they mutilate or kill themselves.

His opinion holds more weight than yours because he is right and you are attacking a martyr rather than focusing on the cause he was martyrd for.

Their mental disorder doesn't confer moral superiority, it detracts from it.

Your insistence that they must be mentally ill/disorderd doesn't negate moral superiority, it only further reveals your apologist mindset.
