    Trump loves money. One of the best ways best way for him to get more money once in power is increasing our military spending on Israel aid, that’s the “but worse” part. In what world do you think he’d do the inverse of maintaining his power? There’s a reason the military industrial complex wants him in power

      You live in a completely sealed off palace in your own mind. Democrats have been tripping over themselves to send repeated aid packages. Israel is using ordinance faster than we can make it. You shouldn’t feel so comfortable just saying whatever the fuck makes sense to you when you’re trying to talk about reality. You should look at it.

      The democrats are committing a genocide. “But worse” implies they aren’t already doing the worst crime against humanity that exists in our imagination. It is genocide denial.

          Do you hear yourself? How about refugee camps that get fire bombed, is that close enough?

          There isnt a way for the republicans to escalate from where its at. The democrats are openly saying that they think this is a good opportunity to change the middle east in the west favor, yet again.

          The war mongering is destroying the democrat party. Its turned the race into should we kill non americans or americans for our wealth? How about we stop killing people and take a step back a bit huh?

            There is always a way to escalate from the current point. For example they could ramp up the military production even more to the point that they are allowing israel to basically invade any country they choose.

            They could also help strategically collect everyone they deem as " Hamas" and store them in camps to gas them in masses. They aren’t even close to holocaust level genocide yet.

            This also ignores what would happen to minority groups inside of the us which could be executed for being trans etc. see laws passed in some states for “punishing predators” which often include trans people, this could very well escalate to giving the death sentence to minority groups.

              Could escalate to death penalty doesnt compare much to thousands of dead children using munitions created in American factories.

              Maybe kamala should just take an anti-war stance and allow those who care about this to vote for her. Thats far easier than convincing thousands of people not to care about their dead family members.

                The republicans have announced that they will be doing a genocide against the minorities in the US in the project 2025 plan. I think one genocide is already enough, although they should definitely stop sending munitions for the genocide ongoing in israel. I am not willing to throw more people under the bus just to show one party that I don’t support what they are doing. There is a time and place for that kind of criticism but it is not closely before an upcoming election which decides if the US would become a country led by a dictator

                  The other side of this mask off fascism coming from liberals is the downplaying of how bad their side is.

                  “I only support one genocide” = you deserve the wall already. But aren’t you forgetting about the other genocides you actively support? Against the first nation people? At the southern border?

                  Words out of the mouth of a nazi are meaningless. They’ll say whatever the fuck they think they need to at any given moment. Conveniently forgetting how their side has done nothing but try to one-up the republicans when it comes to their racism in every single context. “Fund the police” “Trump didn’t build the wall fast enough” “Drill baby drill”

                  Cynical nazi says anything cake topper: “There is a time and a place for that kind of criticism and it’s not the only time they need something from you”

                If genocide is as bad as it gets, and no escalation is possible, then by your own logic there’s nothing we can do about Palestine. It’s already genocide, which cannot be surpassed, so it’s already too late.

                What’s the difference between the 40,000 people already killed and the 2,000,000 people living in Gaza? Numbers don’t matter, only buzzwords.

                Of course, that’s complete bullshit, but so is your logic here.

        I posited that Trump will continue and increase that aid because it benefits him. You didn’t address that claim at all, but instead spoke of the existing aid to Israel. I didn’t say that would stop. You never addressed my original point. Insult me all you like, it doesn’t change the fact that Trump will do whatever the fuck it takes to maintain and increase his power, and as you said “Israel is using ordinance faster than we can make it” but we can certainly make it faster, and there’s more money and power to be had in the further production of it, especially when your first goal is to remove any sort of check or balance in place when it comes to where taxpayer money goes

          I called you stupid and said that you just say shit off the top of your head. That was your response. Trump’s money is in real estate, you unserious clown.
