completely agree! if you think either current political party in the US is the answer to our country’s problems… please do us a favor and deport yourself. both parties are extremely radical, lie, feed misinformation to the public, lie, steal from us via taxes, lie, keep the public at each other’s throats so we don’t turn around and say “hey you’re horrible people gtfo of our government” and LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! these millionaires and billionaires running the country don’t give a fuck-
Misdiagnosis of the problem. And a recipe for throwing elections to the party you have less in common with. This makes for throwing elections to people like george w bush and donald trump because gore and hillary clinton weren't quite good enough. And losing roe v wade as a result and possibly losing democratic govt entirely as a result. Electing different people won't solve the problem. And the way our elections work pretty much guarantees a two party system.
neither party represents the working class and ur example of hillary clinton is funny bc democrats threw away bernie sanders’ populist appeal for a bland candidate they literally refuse to endorse anyone who is left of center of them and support the same genocidal carceral superstructure & aggressively gcidal scorched-earth resource crusade foreign policy in the global south. and they force politicians to pander the donors thereby defanging them of any appeal they have to the populace 💀
i was gonna reply w:if your idea of civic engagement hinges only on the ballot and ballot only, and not other forms of resistance (the working class’s agitation is literally the engine of history, not the ballot which does nothing) then you need to decolonize your perception of civic engagement giving back to your community, doing mutual aid, resisting, disrupting…we have done this for centuries and our black and indigenous elders have passed down these strategies to us like it’s tradition.
the rape testimonies that we have gone to security conferences and asked the biden admin to take action against (knowing it would be futile but we can’t just not do that) are actually horrifying. biden and trump both have israel carte blanche diplomatic unity (like any u.s. president, showing how its not partisan/which side is better, but rather that both parties will scorch the global south and accelerate gcides for resource and land grabs/quell revolutionary sentiments that are a material
threat to power. the women men and children have been gang r4p3d—electric rods and being shocked intraintestinally to death (gaddafi died similarly, but less brutally). r4p3 with instruments and tools that the IOF has. and in the west bank, gaza, and al-quds/occupied jerusalem they all had their g3n1t4l14 beaten in such a way that was so common, we had to conclude that it was a directive from above. not just them being psychotic. actually sickening. they were str1pp3d like abu ghraib.
like for context, those three areas are not the same branches of the IOF. this is a pervasive order. anyways, we have been bringing this up to democrats during the biden administration, including at the DNC. notably and sickeningly, the democrats would close their ears and laugh while we said the names of the children massacred in the early months of the genocide (this would 10x thereafter) kamala would say im speaking and would refuse to engage with arab and muslim voters-
-like her predecessors, who also did that (she’s not an exception). she said shit like “i’m speaking” at her book tour, she laughed when a disruptor mentioned hind rajab and called out her depravity in the book tour. she laughed and sighed. so evil. and biden? he uttered the hasbara propaganda that manufactured consent for hundreds of thousands of palestinians’ murders. and this was an ongoing thing. the ‘40 babies’ and women are also r4p3d by IOF-trained dogs. it gets a lot worse.
the ‘40 babies’ hasbara myth literally caused several islamophobic attacks and exacerbated the brutality JUST IN MY CITY…and he didn’t even fact check that shit and everyone still believes it. and we also protested my friend’s friend from NJ as well as ayensur (redacted but she was an activist who the IOF shot) who were US nationals and executed in the west bank. democrats didn’t say shit about them bc they have two principles: the dollar and the donor
about a random middle class family making less than they need for food and a decent home because they set that system up. they play opposite sides of the coin when it comes to political opinions when in reality they both have the same intentions to control the public and control power (money). its very sad to think about honestly
LMAOOOOO. honestly i think the reason why there’s less ppl here is because ur gonna find them on reddit or twitter H2G i downloaded this app for my college (im a freshman studying international relations-poli sci/anthropology & indigenous or african american studies still deciding the latter two)
