Putting a finer point on it, they would be ecstatic if it were Sanders.

Neither democrats nor republicans are willing to prosecute, so the law is meaningless.

Lucky you.

And as always, the assumption is that anyone who doesn’t love netanyahu’s genocide didn’t vote for harris.

Then again, your issue isn’t with how anyone actually voted. Your issue is with people who object to genocide.

Do you blame anyone who supports genocide for anything?

If the communist party had as little difference between themselves and nazis as democrats have from republicans, you would be saying this without sarcasm.

When Obama had the majority, what did Democrats spend their time and political capital on?

Killing the public option and capitulating to republicans.

Biden used his to deal with a pandemic fallout and he was at least attempting to solve a educational loan bubble.

He was sure able to sell weapons to netanyahu without any problem at all. Bipartisan support, even. But codifying Obergefell wasn’t a priority.

Keep in mind things like gay marriage and abortion were never in any immediate danger at any time.

Which is why Roe was never overturned.

Again, the democrats can be much much better,

But they never will.

Or I’ll do what you did and make a big deal out of not caring what you think because I disagree with you.

I’m not saying the democrats did everything right, but the logic on incremental progress is correct vs tear it all down if it’s not a utopia already

As opposed to taking credit for the work they didn’t fucking do.

They had a majority under Obama and another under Biden. They had the opportunity to codify Obergefell. They chose not to. I wonder how upset they were that scotus did what they were unwilling to do because it wasn’t iNcReMeNtAl enough.

If scotus hadn’t stepped in, democrats would still be fucking about with half-measures.

I know a flag and a pride parade bother you.

It would be nice if we had a second party

As opposed to some rando on lemmy whose only contribution to the artistic output of humanity has been to whine that Brian Eno isn’t pro-genocide enough.

Then maybe that party shouldn’t have risked fascism by taking advantage of the situation.

You have no problem with the message except that it exists.

Just like your only problem with trans people is that they exist.

By whom?

Foreign diplomats should start treating netanyahu’s regime like one that shoots at diplomats and calls it “warning shots” when they miss.

On the other hand, we now have one party that’s at least pretending to not like genocide, as opposed to zero major parties like last year.

The Leahy law required that he withhold arms sales.

He broke the law for netanyahu.

Not to people who didn’t want our involvement with netanyahu’s genocide to cease.

I think gloating about cancer is gross.

I also think using cancer as an excuse for hagiography of a man who knowingly sold weapons for an ongoing genocide is gross.

The ‘good german’ feddit.
