Cairo, IL (Population 1,505)

I wish

I worked gate security at a baseball stadium. Right next to where I stood there were two huge signs reading “No Smoking” and “No Re-entry”. Guess what questions I got asked all day.

There is no material difference between Israel striking Iran with the backing of the US and the US doing it directly.

It is a huge material difference to the American soldiers who would be sent to fight and their families.

Don’t make me laugh.

Perhaps you need to examine yourself for weaknesses to propaganda, because it is 100% true Harris wants peace between Palestine and Israel.

Harris says she won’t give up pushing for end to Israel-Gaza war

Harris says two-state solution, end of Israel-Hamas war is crucial

Kamala Harris vows to end war in Gaza during final Michigan rally

I don’t think that the US should be allowed to hold any more nuclear weapons, the US government is the crazy, out-of-control political power that should not have nukes.

And everyone should have a unicorn and an endless chocolate fountain. No nation should have nukes, but that’s the reality. As long as they exist, mutually assured destruction is the only realistic policy to prevent their use.

The idea that supporting and helping Genocide does not count as fascist is also baffling to me

Fascism is a specific political philosophy.

Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/ FASH-iz-əm) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2][3] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

Especially because a see a clear difference in effort between us, I have to provide sources for everything, you can just make up stuff on the spot, no citations, no quotes, no nothing

I’ve done this long enough to know citation is a waste of time in this conversation because either A) you won’t look at it or B) you’ll make up some excuse it’s not valid.

But I guess that’s very common for blue MAGAs.

Imagine saying something so absurd and then calling the other person unserious…

Walz supports Israel making a preemptive strike on Iran, not the US. At no point did he or Harris say they would use US troops in an offense against Iran.

The Democratic party was always the fascist party but with "the mask on

Not anywhere close to reality. The democratic party in no way meets the definition of fascism.

"Diplomacy is my preferred path to that end, but ALL OPTIONS are on the table,” she added.

So the same as literally every president ever.

he was not tough enough toward the Iranian threat.

He cozies up to all the dictators because he wants to be one, so yeah he wasn’t tough enough. He let them out of their treaty which was preventing their atomic weapons research. Keeping nukes out of the hands of an authoritarian theocracy is a good thing.

This is why she was never going to end the Genocide in Palestine.

Except she and Biden have been pushing for peace nonstop.

Meanwhile Trump said he would encourage Israel to “finish the job” which means kill them all.

an army should only be defensive

The best defense is to be the most lethal army so nobody wants to fight you. That has been US policy for BOTH parties since WW2. It’s a good policy because it keeps us out of wars.

That policy is getting us closer to nuclear war and you think it’s good that Kamala Harris wanted to follow it !?

The policy for Democrats in past decades has been mutual disarmament of nukes. Trump wants us building more.

Again, she is just being the fascist with the mask on, instead of being mask off like Trump.

Again, you need to look up the definition of fascism because Harris in no way meets it.

And just to remember you, I do not support Donald Trump, I never did and never will.

If you didn’t vote for Harris, you did support Trump.

Let’s remember K.H. literally said she wanted to start a new war with Iran

Citation fucking needed.

she wanted the “most lethal army in the world”.

That has been the explicit US policy of the US regardless of leadership for 80 years.

If you think Harris and Trump are equally crazy, YOU are the one who needs psychological treatment. Trump literally wanted to nuke a hurricane, pulled us out of our nuclear deal with Iran, encouraged the US to develop and test “low yield” nuclear arms, and encouraged South Korea to build their own nukes. Harris along with Biden has simply continued the standard nuclear deterrent policy the US has followed for decades in spite of the first direct nuclear threat by another country since the Cuban Missile Crisis.

None of those excuses justifies voting for a clearly insane man. You don’t look at a normal person and a guy screaming about eating cats and say “that cat eating guy is the one out of the two who should have the nuclear codes”. It’s fucking moronic.

We made it through the Recession and COVID-19, but now people are in agony? No fucking way. They chose fascism because they are awful.

I can’t really blame the Democrats. The public is who failed. The Democrats ran a sane adult. That alone should have been enough to beat Trump.

That’s proof right there that the American population is too ignorant of what is happening around them to vote rationally.

One of my favorite examples of the difficulty in idiot-proofing things comes from a national park ranger talking about the difficulty of designing a bear-proof garbage can. He said “There is considerable overlap between the smartest bears and the dumbest humans.”
