Thanks for the explanation, I wouldn't necessarily draw the same conclusion but I see your point. I suspect we won't know the true toll for maybe ever... however I hope it's not that.

Not that numeric details matter but 800 000 surpasses any figures or estimates I've seen relating to Palestinian deaths, I am only seeing it with respect to displacement from Rafah. Where are you getting that number from?
Switching it out for any other number doesn't change your point, but I'm just trying to understand the source.
Haha kudos for taking it in stride, I am just teasing of course. Philosophically I've always had mixed feelings on an armed population, but if there will be people with weapons I'm happier if they're in the hands of the people pushing for equality and fighting oppression.
Now imagine how theyd react if I had a gun, though if shit goes down ill just jack it from one of their still warm corpses.

I'll give you debt relief, with the caveat that it was more motivated by economics than political theory.
Listing off a bunch of campaign promises, or even weaker examples, things said only to try to win over actual progressives, which Democrats "simply didn't have enough seats" to pull off even while holding a majority, and then brushing off a "hot topic" issue of actually funding a Holocaust in our times.
That attitude is why we're here
amazing take thanks for sharing lol
Democrats sure seem to want to work with Republicans, which leftist policies have they adopted?
they didn't even budge on genocide.
keep your "cooperation" if it means fascism and fascism-lite.
Sorry we're not so complacent?
Leftists don't usually have candidates.... When has a democrat plugged their nose and voted more progressive than they'd like? Leftists do that every single time...
Liberal and conservative politicians are closer to one another than to us. "Told you so" isn't helping the bitterness go down, I would have preferred leftists being wrong. Socialism or bust.
Anarchist/socialist communities are always pro trans. I joined slrpnk.net because it's got those as well as a focus on sustainable living. Your choice of instance doesn't impact your feed too much.
You're on lemmy.ml now, the worst part of it is the militant liberals from world coming here trying to feel smug. That's about the worst I've seen at least.
In addition to what others said it sparks discussion when some asshole in the friend group complains about it and hopefully gets torn into or excommunicated or otherwise corrected by their peers

o hey it's that "socialist" guy again who posts conservative viewpoints and doesn't care about being truthful
I guess a block is overdue
