      Either post on reddit and get a mix of Nazis and Russian bots.

      Or post on Lemmy and get dumb fucks that idolize Russia or China and don’t even understand what communism is they just know it’s “cool” to be against capitalism.

      Also never vote, but simultaneously blame the Democrats for everything.

            Obviously. Even better: there shouldn’t be any states nor governments. So simping for imperialist shit holes like China or Russia is just stoopid.

          I’ve seen people saying they don’t want to buy a Quest VR headset because Facebook supported the Uyghur genocide (reasonable) and then name PICO as an alternative despite it being owned by ByteDance which is tied to the Chinese government.

          Yeah, people don’t think. They just repeat the popular thing.

            Please cite a source. As far as I’ve heard, despite several investigations by Congress, there has never been any evidence that Byte dance has any ties to the Chinese government. The only premise they could come up with the try to separate TikTok was that they are a Chinese company and subject to the totalitarian rule of China’s government.

              China has it that the “the people” need to have ownership with any company above 300.

              “The people” meaning the the oppressive piece of shit CCP.

              Yeah that’s a tie to the Chinese government. Chinese company law mandates a representative on the board of every company with more than 300 employees. That political officer is the direct connection been the company and the party.

      The Joe Biden legacy is literal genocide. What kind of insane person do you have to be to not be happy about this? This is objectively awesome.

        You don’t have to be insane to not be happy about this. I believe in ‘harm reduction’, which is to say: If joe biden were still president, i would probably not be upset if some medical condition removed him from the presidency, because then he could no longer actively do harm from his position of power.

        But now? He has almost no active power or influence over anything. His suffering doesn’t benefit me or reverse any previous harms he’s caused.

          Yeah so? Does him not having power absolve him of his previous crimes? He had not even expressed any regret for them.

            What is the purpose of punishment? To reform behavior? Or to make you feel better?

            You can claim justice, but in this case, that’s just making you feel better. You want to hurt someone because they hurt others. That’s how we’ve had never-ending wars. We as a species need to grow past this

              Do you think the Nuremberg trials were bad too?

              Using “pacisim” to excuse a genocidal maniac who has expressed zero regret for his actions. What a joke. I am glad Hitler died and I am glad Joe Biden is dying.

              The world will grow past these war criminals and their genocide mindset.

                You’re making assumptions. Fuck no. What’s happening is Gaza is some of the stupidest ape-brain shit we’ve ever done. So chill out, my dude.

                But this lust for vengeance is how Israel and Hamas continued escalating shit. Not a rational brain anywhere in that mess. “They hurt people, so I want to hurt them” is moronic. “They hurt people, so how do I stop them” is how we should be thinking.

                  Hamas has not continued anything. Israel is the only party which refuses to accept a peaceful resolution. Hamas has accepted a two state solution since 2017. Israel refuses it.

                  It is telling that you are trying to do a both sides on a genocide while feeling bad for its perpetrators.

          That’s the neat part, it is! It’s front and center for Biden because it’s here and now, and more people have a personal connection to Israel and Palestine than other genocides.

          Biden was part of all of the warmongering as well. He was a primary pusher for the Iraq invasion. Even before his presidency Biden was a massive piece of shit.

          But during his presidency he facilitated a straight clear genocide. Anyone empathizing with Biden is an awful person.

          If Bush gets cancer tomorrow I am cheering too.

              It’s very telling how you people equate not wanting to cheer for an old man dying of cancer with approving of genocide.

                Person directly responsible for a genocide in a concentration camp = “old man”.

                I interpret your comment as one of the most extreme forms of racism and basically admitting that you do not see Palestinians as human.

                Because if you did you would not feel a shred of empathy for the people responsible for their suffering.
