Fuck around: do genocide, ignore your base who are apalled by genocide
Find out: lose election
If you want to keep losing, keep doing this same shit. Most liberals seem like they would rather lose than agree with online leftists.
Sure is going to be difficult to enact change when met with a regime that wants to regress. Hope that y’all who didn’t vote are happy with the outcome cause I sure ain’t.
Other than this meme ridiculously implying that if only the pro-Palestine vote would have gone to Harris instead of Trump, then Harris would have won (two ridiculous claims not backed by the reality of the data): Can we please stop with that notion, that the Democrats are trying to stop what’s going on in Palestine and finally see it as the US foreign policy that it is? Who has the power in that relationship? Without the US, Israel has a fraction of its weapons, billions of dollars less for their own civil programs and no shielding from international law. Don’t act like the Biden administration has been genuinely trying to stop a genocide, when they:
- are supplying weapons (Biden even circumventing congress in at least one case)
- continuing payments
- are spreading debunked Israeli propaganda even after they’re debunked while ignoring or actively delegitimizing information to the contrary
- actively bomb the Huthi’s who attack ships headed for Israel (also with weapons)
- vetoing or threatening to veto anything that furthers international law on that matter in the Security Council
- diplomatically and threatingly shielding Israeli threats to the ICC and ICJ
- actively delegitimize the ICJ and their decisions openly
- are threatening countries with sanctions if they don’t adopt outrageous laws and standards redefining anti-semitism and cracking down
- are pressuring countries to tow the line with zionist support
- … (list is not extensive)
This behavior isn’t new. International law didn’t matter, when the US offensively brought death and destruction to Afghanistan and Iraq and as a result again in Iraq and Syria. Or when they did the same with the EU in Lybia,. Or when they supplied Saudi Arabia with weapons and support for their genocide in Yemen, and are supplying Egypt with weapons and support for their water war in Sudan, which has seen atrocity after atrocity in its wake. This isn’t even an extensive list of just this century.
They aren’t trying to stop it. All the public lip-service is but theater as are the negotiations. Which should become clear at the latest, when Israel assassinates their negotiating partners and then the US claims, that there is no one from the other side joining the table…
This post doesnt belong in political humor.
Why are Liberals are taking expedited genocide of Palestinas as consultation price?
ignores core voter issues
spends entire campaign talking about how opponent is worse
Tells entire uncommitted voter base to fuck off
“Why did the voters do this to us? Those must be 10 million russian/maga/chinese shills in disguise.”
Love the font. Reminds me of Rexlia, but it’s slightly different.
Libs would rather cry for months about how they completely botched an election than do anything to stop a genocide.
I’m sure some of these strawman exist in a field somewhere keeping the crows away.
Democrats need to get rid of First Past The Post voting in the blue states they control. Time to admit they need help and shouldn’t be going alone against the republicans
More democracy. More chances to defeat the republicans. More people engaged and involved in the political process.
More people voting = more votes for democrats. More chances of republicans electing a more moderate candidate.Electoral reform is an absolute win for the people of this country. Except for the legacy poltical parties. They will unfortunately have to compete for your vote. If they are unable to stay relevant, that’s on them for becoming weak and frail using FPTP as a crutch.
Why would people vote for Republican Lite, if there’s the real deal? At least now we know chasing these Republican votes was foolish and that we should campaign on universal leftist points. Right? Right???
It’s really sad. It’s really sad that reality has no effect on the people.
I mean in all fairness we did tell them that exactly this would happen. It’s their open damn fault they, and the rest of us, now have to try and survive in the still-rotting corpse of democracy.
Edit, add: Their self centered, short-sighted voting choice has screwed over everybody else along with them. I’m not going to feel particularly bad about the hardships they’ve invited on themselves, whether through stupidity, logical fallacy, ignorance, emotional thinking, or (in the case of actual T supporters) actually believing blatantly stupid bullshit.

It is not like you cared about the genocide when Biden was president. At least now the decorum is gone.
Hell, the only thing Harris voters have left is the bitter pleasure of watching the Trump voters and non-voters suffer with us. I will not extend an ounce of anything but schadenfreude their way for any bit of pain they feel as a consequence of their own actions.
classic neoliberal compassion
At some point, “They want to see us literally dead and we just want them to have healthcare” has to become, “Well, at least they’ll die, too.”
Twenty million people includes a majority of democrats. You did this to yourselves, and you did it to everyone else too. You’re scum, you’ve probably destroyed democracy, and when the republicans start their pogroms, I’m not going to shed tears for liberals. You got us into this mess, so you can do the dying.
Wow, you big mad. I certainly didn’t, and blaming liberals for electing Trump is maybe the stupidest way to shed your guilt you could’ve chosen lol
If there were 20 million leftists, you wouldn’t be able to laugh at us every election. This is your fault, whether you want to admit it or not. Democrats stayed home in record numbers, and failed the nation.
The thing is, leftists are armed. Liberals are not. It’s not us who has to worry about nazis coming. We’re gonna look out for our queer and trans brothers and sisters, but you guys? You can have a front row seat to Gaetz weaponizing the DOJ and taking revenge on you for defying Trump. It’s gonna be a rough four years for you.
Why does ‘leftist’ rhetoric sound scarily similar to extremist conservative rhetoric?
Because both are anti-government, and liberals rely on government violence to maintain the status quo that keeps them comfortable. You don’t like threats to your privilege.
Hmm nope, pretty sure it’s a bit of mental illness mixed with extremist language.
Lay it off with blaming people who are mad at Democrats about Gaza for Trump. Honestly, it’s tired, inaccurate, and wrong. Trump won the popular vote. The Dems ran a shitty campaign, they had no message, and failed to inspire 10 million of their previous voters.
That is not a new pose for Republicans.
From 2011:
Newt Gingrich is standing by comments he made earlier this week when he called the Palestinians an “invented” people. “Remember, there was no Palestine as a state.”
You’re kidding, right? There’s no way the guy’s name is literally “newt grinch”!
It’s literally not “Newt Grinch”, it’s Newton Gingrich. This is your first time hearing of him?
It’s literally not “Newt Grinch”, it’s Newton Gingrich
This just sounds like one of those “when mom calls you but your full name” memes from 2017
You’re right, that’s not his name.
I would like to recall some comments saying “Kamala is worse than the same”
A very tiny majority of people think of Gaza in the voting booth.
A very tiny majority
ok.
A solid chunk of gen z sat out for this reason bc dumbass shit they saw on tiktok
dumbass shit they saw on tiktok
You mean genocide?
I mean shit that’s been happening through every administration that Russia decided to use as a wedge issue for liberals and morons ate it up as something Biden and Kamala were responsible for.
blaming everyone but Harris/Biden for Harris/Bidens choice and a badly out of touch campaign.
You centrists just cannot accept reality and refuse to introspect. Seems like you will try the exact same thing if dems ever return to power. Its miserable being in a coalition with you losers.
They could have literally never campaigned on anything and voting for them against trump would still be the only moral choice, so your attempts to blame them for the moral failings of the 10m who sat this one out…totally insane.
You seem like a “don’t blame me I voted for Nader” type of oblivious.
Funny you bring up Nader. You’re basically admitting the democrats understood the flaws of the voting system and did nothing to fix the issue.
The democrats preferred trump and losing power over having to compete for your vote against 3rd parties on a level playing field. Almost 30 years of inaction on First Past the Post voting? Unforgiveable.
Hey! I had fuckin nothing to do with this!
My apologies dumbass
