    The realpolitik is that the US needs Israel as an unsinkable aircraft carrier to control North Africa and the Middlr East and the Arab Peninsula. It is a critical piece of the empire. That’s why the US supports Israel. It’s all about trade routes and securing hegemony and shit like that.

    Now, if you aren’t going to take responsibility for voting for Biden, then I’m not going to take responsibility for refusing to vote for Biden. That seems fair.

      And when American Nazis are rounding up drag queens and sending trans people to re-education camps you can smugly sip your tea and know that you voted your principles.

      I don’t think you know what “literally” means.

        No, actually, I’ll be rounded up too. I’m trans, they’re going to fucking kill me if they can get away with it.

        But hey, if it’s not your fault Biden is supporting genocide even though you’re voting for it, the how the fuck is it my fault if Trump does genocide when I don’t vote for it?
