Hamas is the only party fighting for Palestinians.
Hasbara starts from the position of Israel genociding Palestinians, and then explaining why it’s actually okay because Israelis are the real victims. When you haven’t been indoctrinated with this kind of propaganda your whole life it sounds kind of weird and Nazi like, but for Israelis it makes perfect sense.
For example have you ever considered that Palestinians toddlers are subhuman terrorists and Israelis are the Ubermensch? It’s a very convincing argument.
but we wound up in Iraq suddenly because President Bush and his administration had a discourse based on lies that excused them to go to war in Iraq.
Yes totally not a completely pre-planned invasion with the goal to destroy and destabilize Iraq, which conveniently Israel lobbied for for many years. Well at least 9/11 wasn’t an inside job and Saudi Arabian leaders were held to account.
The Iraq invasion from the start focussed on destroying all Iraqi infrastructure and creating as many civilian casualties as possible to destabilize the country. It was 100% a genocide. But since the US has the Hague Invasion Act they will never be charged for it.
The Democratic party is already fractured. Decapitated even. After they threw the shutdown everyone wants them gone.
Oh no not the “blame” for running opposition against the establishment ghouls. The horror. Nobody in the public would support that. Everyone loooves current DNC leadership.
At least MTG strikes when she sees blood in the water.
Oh no the horror. The DNC which just betrayed Zohran Mamdani and refused to endorse him despite him winning the Democratic primary. We have to play nice with the people who play dirty.
I’m pleasantly surprised about how many people realize that a ‘progressive’ should not be actively trying to keep one of the biggest AIPAC recipients in power.

The only group which voted in the majority for Trump were white people. This is literally racist propaganda.
I stopped reading when you described yourself as a leftist.
I discourage voting for her and her party precisely for the reason she states, because they do not fight back.
The irony of you advocating for someone who does not fight back but only complains is funny.

It would be awesome, this is probably the most important issue Lemmy is facing.
Maybe community moderators could decide to defederate with certain other communities if they believe that the moderation there is not up to snuff.
Or maybe community moderators could moderate the combined comment section of what people can see on their own communities, even when it is posted on other communities, but not remove comments or ban people from those other communities.
Honestly, a bit of experimentation might just be necessary to see what works, but I think we definitely need a way to combine posts which are redundant.
This comment is pretty funny because the Muslim Brotherhood was democratically elected in Egypt and then overthrown by the military coup of Sisi which was backed by the USA and Israel.
