Western settler-colonialism is not “a 1,000 year conflict.” It’s a modern imperialist project.

How tf does one "excerpt pressure?"
That threw me for a loop as well. Finally figured out that they meant "exert".
Can someone provide further sources by what she means by an all out war if Israel loses support? Like stop killing civilians in Gaza, that's all we're asking
You see, it is critical to expand the war to Lebanon in order to stop an all-out war.
Nobody expects Kamala to solve it. They do expect her to stop supporting genocide.
I really can't understand why people fail to get this.
I'd say "Russian trolls", but there's no saying they are Russian. The view on Lemmy a few months ago was pretty homogenous - whatever happens, Kamala is lightyears ahead of Trump on anything related to sanity. Then suddenly the "Jill Stein is a russian shill" narrative came, followed by "A vote for Kamala is a vote for genocide" (while everything points to the fact that Kamala is the best option for deescalation as far as the US ballot box options go).
This is extremely misleading. Fuck Trump 10000 times and kamala is the only sane choice, but stop trying to paint over reality to try and make her look like she's not just a lesser evil.
She didn't just "not promise to solve 1000 year conflict" (which the genocide has been going on for the last 75 years),
she did promise to continue funding genocide with American taxpayer dollars. (Of which the US has been giving and average of $5 billion in tax dollars and weapons to Isreal per year for the last 75 years, since they first invaded Palestine).
We are voting for her because she is the lesser evil. We don't have to be happy about it or stop criticizing her on her bad policies.
Basically: Vote for Harris, but also fuck her for vowing to continue funding genocide. Trump would also keep funding genocide, and he'd also destroy what's left of the west, on top of every other obvious reason he should never be in power again (and never should have been).
Kamala might fund genocide in Israel. But Trump will fund genocide in Israel, and genocide here.
We can be ideologically pure when we don’t have fascists at the doorstep. Thousands of children just FUCKING VANISHED during Trumps term. What’s going to happen during his second? Texas was (is?) putting barbed wire in the river on the fucking border. Trump will give free rein to murderous politicians (Texas is also about to execute another innocent man btw). People are going to die here.
Hopes and prayers!
Oh yes. This will surely win over those far left voters.
