Let's be real. The Zionists in charge are Nazis and there was never a path out of genocide in these elections.

It's also part of the evangelical grifter prophecy that the Jews be in control of all of old Isreal before the apocalypse starts.

Trump will dismantle this country and the Christians will cheer it on as society circles the drain because the version of their book that was rewritten in the 70s says so.

It will at least be funny to see them all realize that the "rapture" probably already happened and they're all still here XD

These idiots should be disqualified for holding office, since at least some of them, and/or the people they represent, simply don't think this world matters, but only their fictional eschatology.

It's bananas when you actually talk to some of them. Weirdly, though, some of them are still preppers. Wait, I thought you will be one of the blessed chosen ones in the end times? WTF are they stockpiling MREs and thinking they'll be hunting for deer with a bow and arrow or some shit....none of their plans - if you can call them that - make any fucking sense, but they want to rule so that they can drag more advanced people, cultures, and societies down with them into their lunacy and their absolute literal hellscape.

The Rapture happened, three Quakers, a Unitarian and a radical Catholic nun disappeared mysteriously, otherwise business as usual.

Let's be discerning: there was the potential for a better path out of this, but people decided on the definitely-worst-case-for-everything option on this binary choice, to ensure everyone suffers as much as possible in every situation, most assuredly during the belligerent invasion by Israel.

It was explained over and over; you need more time?

Harris, of the Biden-Harris regime that has been the necessary backer of this genocide for 13 months, did nothing different from Biden rhetorically and was an empty suit candidate that holds the party line. A party whose reoresentatives almost unanimously provide the material support needed for this genocide despite 70-80% of their constituents opposing it.

The "better path" you are referring to is literally unconditional support for genocide. I slmost said you were describing the better path, but you didn't actually describe what it looks like. Presumably, you cannot.

but people decided on the definitely-worst-case-for-everything option on this binary choice, to ensure everyone suffers as much as possible in every situation, most assuredly during the belligerent invasion by Israel.

Who provided you with these choices? Have you considered looking at politics as more than just which monster to press a button for?

It was explained over and over; you need more time?

There was a peeiod, maybe two months, when I could barely get Harris supporters to even say the word genocide. What do you think you are explaining?

Harris just needed to stop the shipments to win the election and she wouldnt do it. She had a billion dollars of pollster and consultant data to tell her this. But its everyone elses fault she lost?

[-] draneceusrex@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Lol, no. Gaza didn't lose Harris the election. Sadly, America cares less for Gaza than they do for women's health, that Trump is a traitor and a convicted felon, or actually understanding the economy. Eggs are expensive so Dems bad.

[-] futatorius@lemm.ee -3 points 1 month ago

She wouldn't have won the elections even if she did that. The pro-Zionist Democratic Party vote far exceeds the vote for evenhandedness or pro-Palestinian policies.

[-] TheOubliette@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

Around 70-80% of Democratic voters are against the US sending weapons to Israel. The people most committed to this are younger, they are the people that Dems rely on to have any kind of ground game. Accordingly, Dems had no ground game.

All Harris had to do was cynically oppose the genocide by threatening literally any kind of restrictions and to cynically claim to do something about high prices at the grocery store. In both cases she waffled.

Such a fucking idiotic take... I'm sure Palestinians will take heart in this sentiment when they get gassed out of existence on January 21.

[-] Bookmeat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I'm not happy about it either.

[-] TheOubliette@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

The Zionist entity, generally speakinf, does not use gas. They use large scake bombing campaigns and white phosphorus. This has already been happening for 13 months, if you weren't aware.

[-] SulaymanF@lemmy.world 0 points 1 month ago

Everyone in north Gaza will be dead or deported before new years. That will be complete before Trump even takes office. How can you still pretend Biden is somehow better when the outcome is the same?
