Progressives acknowledging the fact of genocide is a good first step, and it’s useful that Ocasio-Cortez and others have done so — “I think [unconditional aid to Israel] enabled a genocide in Gaza,” she said in Munich — but it is not in and of itself sufficient. Before anyone in the party can move on to selling a post-Biden vision of human-rights-first foreign policy, they must address what accountability for the war criminals in the Biden administration — those who aided, armed, and funded genocide — should look like.
I’ll remind you that your plan was to intentionally allow as much harm as possible.
Actually, now that I think about it, whenever your plan leads to something, that isn’t just allowing and condoning… yeah man, you intentionally CAUSED as much harm as possible. Alex Pretti. Renée Good. Blood directly on your hands. :)
Edit: more names whose deaths you directly caused by not voting, encouraging not voting, not primarying, etc Tens of thousands of Palestinians Unnamed Honduran Man Felix Bauckholt Rubin Ray Martinez Elena Catarina Morales-Chan Enrique Juan Tizol Macario (14 years old) Unnamed man near San Diego Unnamed man near Rio Grande City James Alanis Roberto Carlos Montoya Valdez Unnamed Equadorian woman Unnamed Mexican man Silverio Villegas González Yahir David Martinez Axel Everado Iquic-Sequen Manuel Mateo Lopez Jose Castro-Rivera Bartolo Baltazar Baltazar Epifanio Molina Bravo
Bask in the direct consequences of your inaction.
No see, allowing as much harm as possible is what YOU did, whether you intended to or not. You are a wrecker if you didn’t advocate that Harris shift her position on Gaza.
No, see, you got your way, didn’t you? I didn’t get my way. So your way has directly lead to this. These consequences? Directly on your hands. You chose this. :)
Oof… gonna go ahead and put those Iranian lives lost on your head as well, as well as all the people the inevitable war is going to kill. Nice job.
Please. Alleging your concern for Iranian lives only highlights your hypocrisy.
Do you know how fucking hard I have to try to be a pacifist? Do you know how fucking scared of myself I am? FUCK YOU
I’m confronting people wearing Trump shit at my JOB, in the middle of a RURAL TOWN IN A RED STATE FULL OF RACISTS. FUCK YOU. YOU WANNA DO SOMETHING USEFUL? OKAY, PASS SOME USEFUL INFO THEN?
I’m fucking disabled and gay. Fuck you. I’m TRYING.
You’re right, I totally don’t care about those Iranian lives! Totally! I’m totally not bothered by this administration! I’m totally not bothered by America, my home, being the cause of suffering for people all over the world. You’re right! I’m not angry with righteous fury over those named who ICE murdered! I don’t care that America killed little girls!
FUCK YOU. FUCK EVERY US PRESIDENT TO EVER HOLD THE OFFICE. FUCK AMERICAN IMPERIALISM. SO FUCKING DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT YOU PATHETIC PRICK. YOU SIT HERE, ACTING SMUG, WAITING FOR A REVOLUTION? YOU START IT, PUSSY. NOT GONNA START IT? THEN FUCKING DO SOMETHING, YOU ARE USELESS AND INEFFECTIVE. AT LEAST I’M TRYING. AT LEAST I’M ADVOCATING FOR SOMETHING. YOU ADVOCATE FOR NOTHING.
