I’d be vegan for ideological reasons but I think with my dietary restrictions and issues it’d kill me.

I too believe the fascists should lose, that’s why I voted third party instead of staying home

If everyone on the ballot supports genocide or is silent about genocide, then there’s nobody to vote for and the decision is made for you.

If anyone on the ballot denounces the genocide in Palestine and their record backs the denunciation up, then you should vote for them.

None of my local Dems said anything against the genocide so I didn’t vote for Dems down-ballot either.

Based. I voted Green right before the VP said dumb shit about China and trans people so kinda regret voting Green over PSL now, but I also wrote in revolutionary slogans for every other position so they couldn’t fill them in for me.

The Democratic Party is for Nazis, I’ll give carve-outs to Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib for being against the genocide but everyone else supports the genocide and is therefore a Nazi.

Really all it would have taken for me to vote Dem down-ballot was a condemnation of the Party for doing Nazi shit in Palestine. That’s not a huge ask. But every Dem on my ballot was either too chickenshit to take a public stance or their public stance is “more genocide please” so of course I don’t want them to win either.

There was some bad personal loss during lockdown, but I still miss lockdown so bad. I desperately needed the break from work and having the bonus unemployment actually cover shit instead of how unemployment normally is was gave me time to heal some from years of overwork and burnout.

But they’ll never do it again. Even if H5N1 takes off they won’t do anything like that again

Would you support him banning AmeriKKKan and Isn’treali developers too, given that their countries’ war crimes are far grander in scale, horror, and devastation than Russia’s?

They really did. It’s been disheartening, alienating, and frightening to watch. I can’t be friends with these people anymore, who don’t care about genocide, so there go a lot of people I befriended in school.

Disclaimer: you’re going to get wildly differing answers because Islam is not a monolith.

Edit: also thank you for asking this respectfully

At least in my experience with the Muslim side if my family, no. There’s maybe a little “oh that’s different and a little weird, but if someone’s queer that’s just Allah’s plan for them and it’s not our place to judge”, but there isn’t the hatred and condemnation you see in conservative christian cults. It can break more along political lines.

It also gets weird with regional variation, like where my family is from trans people are kind of normal. I was even taught that transness is generally accepted religiously as long as the trans person is straight (so since I’m lesbian that doesn’t work as well for me, but whatever).

Generally I consider the “Islam is violently queerphobic” shit essentially a form of colonialist blood-libel to paint Muslim cultures as backwards and oppressive in order to justify committing horrible colonialist and imperialist violence against them, and it’s victim-blaming too. Queerness is very culturally dependent – what is feminine in one culture may be masculine in another. Colonizers exported their queer-bashing ideas during conquest, cracked down on queer communities as removed, reshaped mores in the places they conquered, and now these “enlightened” colonizers have the audacity to condemn the people they colonized for bearing those scars. Of course we’re “behind the times” – you fuckers made us be!

There is certainly room for and indeed a need for conversation and struggle around queer acceptance and liberation in different Islamic cultures, but that’s going to vary greatly by region and is less of a theological question and more a cultural question (of course there’s a give and take between theology and culture). Islam in Iran is wildly different from Islam in Pakistan is wildly different from Islam in Saudi Arabia is wildly different from Islam in Algeria, and even within those places there is a great amount of variation

I truly think libs are beyond being redeemed, and that even goes for the more “progressive” types who appropriate the label of “democratic socialist” like Bernie and AOC.

I used to think they could be moved left – after all, many did – but at this point I no longer believe that. So many of the libs who “moved left” under Trump, at least that I know, are now ride or die for Kdolf Hitler. If they won’t grow a soul and reject liberalism because of genocide, they’re beyond rehabilitating and aren’t worth my time anymore. I’d rather engage with the politically unengaged than with the politically engaged liberal. The unengaged can be woken up to the truth, the engaged liberals see the truth and don’t care.

No matter where you live you’re wasting your vote if you don’t vote third party

Shit I’d hit a button where you specifically die for just $1.

If it’s jist a rabdom stranger I wouldn’t hit that vutton though. Just you

1st third: Yep

2nd third: lmao what

3rd third: lmao what

Material conditions? Never heard of them.

Basically every successful Communist revolution immediately instates major literacy programs after the initial victory to empower the populace. It isn’t a prerequisite.

People like you are going to drive me back to Christianity because I need to believe that there is a hell for genocide supporters.

Lol that’s a great line, love it. Keep up the good posting

So did she support Tara Reade or is she only pretending to care about women?

And if you live in a swing state you have a moral obligation to vote against genocide (third party, or write in “Free Palestine” for President).

A vote for the Democrats is a vote for genocide.

I have gotten a bit of that vote blue shit from anarchist friends too and it’s shocking and mind-boggling, I really can’t understand why people who are opposed to government in general want to throw their support behind Nazis!

I don’t fear their “magic” so I’m probably not magicphobic

Main character syndrome and its effects have been a disaster for whatever the fuck this kind of person is called

She supported destroying Iraq and Libya so we can reasonably assume shed have been a horrible warmongering mass-murderer
