“It seems like every cycle we say that and we kind of mean it but this time I think we are in a category change where I believe the United States and the way that we think about ourselves as a nation has not been in danger like this since 1865. I think the only comparable moment to this was the Civil War,” he tells The New Abnormal co-host Danielle Moodie.

I'm not voting for Trump, for obvious reasons. I'm also unwilling to vote for a genocide denier, though.

Votes need to be earned. This message is the same bullshit Democrats do so they don't have to give things to their base. Trying to shame their base, rather than earn the votes.

The saying 'Republicans fear their base, and Democrats have contempt for theirs' is really true.

i think our friend Joseph is more of a “passive genocide participant” or “genocide enabler” than a denier— bit more severe of a charge

Remember he also said that the Palestinians were lying about their death toll reports

Yeah, I mean, I agree. The Genocide Denier is more of an argument for liberals. They are more likely to admit genocide denial, then actively assisting genocide. I think. I don't know, I'm probably be wrong.

I'm less into arguing with liberals than I am into calling him Genocide Joe just because it pisses them off

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
