[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so horrified by the Biden-Harris administration's support for Israel's genocide in Gaza that I have actually become numb to the election results.  Will not vote for Trump, will not vote for Harris who will not even call for the US to abide by its own laws that prohibit sending weapons to parties committing war crimes and blocking humanitarian aid.  Both parties are awful. 
 I'm completely disillusioned with our "democracy." It's actually rather freeing to feel this way.  And pathetic to watch a bunch of people get all self-righteous about how horrible Trump is but who can't bring themselves to give two sh**ts about children being blown to bits and starved to death with US tax dollars.

How old are you?  Are you some emo teenager?

Glad you’re already disillusioned with our democracy, it’ll be easier on you when it’s gone forever because you have reached adulthood and yet still don’t understand that humans fight for resources…[/quote]

I'm a mid-40s UMC white lady, actually.  I hope Harris loses Michigan over this, and loses the whole election. The Dems can all go to hell.  So sick of fake "liberals" and "progessives."[/quote]

I should also add that the neverending conflicts in the Middle East are fuelled by the US.  If the US had stopped sending weapons to Israel, they would have literally run out of bombs a long time ago.  The US is a full party to these conflicts.

Of course you are.  That’s the prime virtue-signaling demographic.

But seriously.  Do you think Trump is going to… NOT support Israel?  Support Gaza?[/quote]

Trump has no ideological commitment to Israel. He is committed only to himself. He could definitely decide to stop sending Israel weapons. The Israelis know that he might ditch them. Biden is ideologically committed to Israel, and Harris shows no daylight between herself and Biden, and has not called for the US to abide by its own laws governing weapons transfers. Trump is a criminal who should have been prosecuted for his crimes. Biden and other officials who are breaking US laws are also criminals who should be prosecuted for violating US law. The difference is that this has caused the deaths of tens of thousands (likely more) of civilians. Trump's crimes did not kill large numbers of civilians. Stop letting the Dems off the hook of you actually care about the rule of law.[/quote]

I think the rise of Trump and his supporters represents (reflects?) an existential crisis for *our own* country.  So Sorry, I don’t really care about the neverending conflicts in the Middle East right now.  We’ve got bigger concerns right here at home.[/quote]

You should care because it has destroyed whatever was left of US influence in much of the world. Watch how it bites us in butt as more and more countries turn to China and Russia. [/quote][/quote]
