Even at his best he was a compromise candidate

I can't speak for the rest of you but I'm done compromising, from the river to the god damned sea

You say this, and then go to your other thread on Israel-Palestine and start whimpering for half measures

Bernie is one of the best elected officials in the USA which is uhhh an extremely low bar to clear

No justification?!

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 73 points 1 year ago

Just more proof that every US politician has dog shit foreign policy

Did Ilhan Omar post cringe? That's the only one I can think of that could possibly be okay

[-] footfaults@hexbear.net 35 points 1 year ago

Ilhan and Rashida are the only ones I can think of, but I bet they're keeping their heads down.

[-] viva_la_juche@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

Ilhan has been increasingly more cringe the last few years and continues that trend unfortunately

[-] footfaults@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

I honestly think that statement is the farthest that this system will allow. The Israel lobby already has it out for her, so she's being very cautious

I think Ilhan has done bullshit regarding Xinjiang (along with AOC and Bernie)

Death to America

I half agree with him. There is no justification for this violence, and there hasn't been for decades. And yes, this violence should end now. Israel should surrender.

Yes, it's heartbreaking that it turned violent. I can sympathize with the illegally occupied people who have their desire to be released from the world's largest open air prison with God knows how many crimes against humanity getting passed over by news cycles. "It must end now" is so myopic for the righteous anger of these people speaking the language of the unheard. It is clearly and visibly a reaction to their conditions and their conditions are unjustifiable. If anything must end now, it's the illegal occupation.

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

Would like to point out that the USA prison system has imprisoned around 7 million people currently living, Palestine has a population of 5 million

Just for comparison on the worlds largest prisons

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 17 points 1 year ago

I would just note that I'm not the one who coined the term "world's largest open air prison" for Gaza.

![amerikkka](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/6dedb145-206a-4b35-ab5e-c9e41e1130c7.png "emoji amerikkka") of course

[-] GarbageShoot@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I view it as a tragedy that is overwhelmingly the fault of the occupiers for creating this existential desperation, like how when you fuck the poor with policy the blood from resulting crime is on your hands at least as much as any of the criminals you put in that position (obviously fuck profiteers who are just exploiting the situation)

[-] GrabItNow@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

It's truly baffling to me that anyone who suggests they believe in some kind of left politics would make a statement like this. Do they not reflect on what it must be like? Set aside that this is the only home many Palestinians have known, they're literally stuck there. They're blockaded and fenced in and coralled by military outposts, and not even the arab states that support them want them as refugees. Nobody does, nobody wants them. They're entirely fucking stuck there, and they're blockaded and dirt poor and at the mercy of people with openly genocidal intentions against them. I hate today because I really don't want to spend all of my time looking at this shit, but it is hard to look away. How can a person so callously "condemn" the Palestinians that choose violence, regardless of who it is pointed at, when THAT is their condition. They're in a hopeless situation and the big liberal democracies all talk about them like criminals for cynical geopolitical reasons. How maddening must that be?

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

But tbh this is unsurprising, he’s always had sus foreign policy and it’s been known that he is not good on Israel-palestine.

Heart attacks are violence

Top causes of death in the U.S. are COVID and heart disease

MFW a lemmy liberal admits the leading causes of death in America are state violence ![POG-19](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/93b1c7fc-b0a3-46bc-b6f7-ea7559ba7116.png "emoji POG-19")

Social fascist.

It’s somehow worse than Cornel West’s tweet, which sucked but it at least acknowledged that Israel deserves some blame (they deserve all but you know what I mean).
