It seems to me that Republicans and the Christian Nationalists they are in bed with are going to be immovably pro-Israel. How do we prevent our government from participating in this genocide as these new politicians take power?
Lol.
Too late.
Palestine will cease to exist.
Why?
Because Donald Trump only helps those who he can directly benefit from. Palestine cannot benefit him. Israel can.
If you want to help Palestine, build a time machine, go back in time, and tell every liberal/independent fool who voted 3rd party or abstained from voting over the whole Palestine thing to do the smart thing instead.
Elections have consequences, and every last American is about to find that out the real hard way.
If got time machine, go back and stop all religion from forming, problem solved atheist utopia
I would go back further. 400,000 years back, with weapons to eradicate the human species. We are anathema to this planet’s other life. Humans are a toxic disease.
But then neanderthal gets evolve and world problems happen anyway with other hominid in charge.
Maybe we go back to dino
Go back and smack that fucking fish with a rock, as soon as it tries to leave the ocean.
I could have been a fucking shark you little asshole
Palestine will cease to exist.
You mean Israel has been trying, and failing, to do since 1948?
You sure do give white supremacists a lot of credit, don’t you?
You mean Israel has been trying, and failing, to do since 1948?
Have they tried as hard as they’re trying right now? Did they have someone named Donald Trump who was interested in helping them, or at least entirely getting out of their way while they do it, instead of putting up some form of resistance to the idea of them wiping Palestine out?
You sure do give white supremacists a lot of credit, don’t you?
I wouldn’t call it credit. I’d call it reading a history book and undestanding how far white supremacists are willing to go when given enough power.
Have they tried as hard as they’re trying right now?
Nope. They have never been this desperate.
Did they have someone named Donald Trump who was interested in helping them
The (so-called) “west” has been interested in helping them since 1948. That’s why they have the kind of firepower now they could only have dreamt of in 1948 - and they are failing nonetheless.
or at least entirely getting out of their way
The US isn’t standing in their way. Palestinians with RPG-7s are standing in their way.
white supremacists are willing to go when given enough power.
White supremacism gave itself all the power it wanted all over the world. And yet, despite this power, one by one the colonialist chickens was forced to come home to roost after the failure of white supremacism to remain dominant in the colonized world. It’s now the US’s turn to experience that failure.
The US isn’t standing in their way. Palestinians with RPG-7s are standing in their way.
If you think Palestine is going to survive for much longer, then you have an optimism I can only dream of. Even if Trump simply stands out of the way. Which is unlikely, because Donald Trump only helps those who can benefit him and Israel can benefit him. So expect more of our BOOM BOOMs to end up there in the near future.
Palestine is done.
one by one the colonialist chickens was forced to come home to roost after the failure of white supremacism
Yes, and the last time they got REAL power it took millions of lives and an unquantifiable amount of money/resources to put them back down.
If you think Palestine is going to survive for much longer,
The literal ex-commander of the Gaza division doesn’t share your denialism. about Israel’s chances.
Like I said… you give white supremacism a lot of credit.
So expect more of our BOOM BOOMs
You mean the ones that are already there?
Yes, and the last time they got REAL power it took millions of lives
Oh no… they were costing millions of lives looooong before Mussolini gave it a name. And western liberal society was perfectly fine with it both before and after as long as it remained in the colonized world.
It’s almost as if liberalism simply accepts that a bit of fascism every now and then is simply the cost of doing business.

Gonna need more than the opinion of an ex-commander. I’ve heard a lot of ex-military say things. Look at Michael Flynn. Not exactly an icon of honesty and trustworthyness.
Like I said… you give white supremacism a lot of credit.
That’s because history has taught me to be very, very concerned with the capabilities of organized white supremacism.
It’s almost as if liberalism simply accepts that a bit of fascism every now and then is simply the cost of doing business.
This seems like an emotional opinion.
Look at Michael Flynn.
So, you chose an example from another country that also cannot win it’s wars despite an overwhelming technological and logistical advantage over it’s victims?
The Palestinians doesn’t seem to have any problems trusting theirs. I wonder why?
That’s because history
History is not an excuse to assign white supremacism any kind of “superiority.”
This seems like an emotional opinion.
Really? I find it funny that a person that claims to base their opinion on history doesn’t seem to understand the intimate link between liberalism and fascism.
I feel even worse since I did vote for Harris, although live in a red ass state so it doesn’t amount to much (hopefully I’ll move out next year).
I definitely recommend getting out while you can. Move somewhere that affords you more rights and has a stronger economy.
I can’t afford to move to another country though (neither can most Americans), so I can only move to a state that isn’t red. As much as I’ll still have to deal with President Trump, at least a non-Republican state would try to mitigate/fight back in ways
I’m planning to move to Puerto Rico, which unlike every other state/territory in the country, its party system does not align with the national one (similar to Quebec in Canada), but more politicians there are nationally affiliated with Democrats than with Republicans, and from what I know, while Trump enjoys support among a chunk of stateside Puerto Ricans much like other Hispanics, Trump isn’t very popular there considering he neglected them after Hurricane Maria and tried to sell it, as well as the more recent “island of garbage” shenanigans
this genocide is The conclusion of a 50-year crusade by the Israelis, and Trump said he’s fully on board with Netanyahu finishing his attack on Palestine.
and dumps is going to be in charge of The US military in a couple months.
so there isn’t much you can do
this will be one more concluded genocide in the books.
There are none. This is game over for Palestinians, Ukranians, and 99% of Americans. Mango Hitler controls all branches of the government, and every check and balance has been removed.
Even if there was evidence of massive voter fraud on Trump’s part, it wouldn’t matter. Anyone who could do anything about it is on his team.
The US democracy is dead.
It’s probably worth asking “what are the next steps for citizens of Portugal to stop the destruction of Palestine?”
Or Honduras or Australia or South Korea or Madagascar.
Because it’s now the same answer. You can do whatever you as a private citizen can do. Our friend’s dad travelled to Palestine and rode in on a boat loaded with construction supplies, sort of “throwing his body” in the path of the IDF to directly physically help Palestinians (he’s Jewish, btw).
Of course this was before this full scale war. I wouldn’t recommend this action now. Send money to aid groups. Whatever you could do from the suburbs of Cartegena, that’s what you can do as an American.
You can’t do anything about the policy from the top now. That’s a sealed envelope.
I am stealing someone else’s idea (can’t remember whose), but just make non-stop memes about Trump being Netanyahu’s pet, and let the narcissism run wild. If everyone one on social media was sharing memes about Trump being Netanyahu’s bitch especially after Netanyahu said Biden was better than Trump, I believe there would be ton of budget cuts to Israel.
pet
In a subby gimp plaything kind of way.
We don’t? We lost. I’m going to go back to huddling in the corner.
the best time to get educated about what a fascist american government looks like is 20-25 years ago. the second best time is… wait, too late
Convince a fuckton of electors to go rogue and vote Harris in January. Of course you’d have a better chance at winning the lottery than that
Be billionaire and outbid Netanyahu
Kill as many Nazis as you can.
How do we prevent our government
It’s really simple. You start getting your head around the idea of actually OPPOSING your own government.
Don’t pretend you don’t know how to do this. Antifa and BLM have already shown you how to do this.
Sabotage Democratic outreach and voter engagement efforts right?
You could vote for the candidate least likely to Genocide. I think Kamala was her name…
No seriously, I hope Palestine gets the policies that all the Genocide Joes here voted for. You earned it for them! 🫡
Divest Israel. But then they will just get more money from the US.
We’re sick and tired of political opinions masquerading as questions - take it to a political audience - please leave us. This is not the place.
Side question. Which communities can I do that? I have some questions I want to ask, but haven’t found a place. The politics community requires a link to an article, which is practically what I want to ask for.
