Yeah dude keep just keep insulting me and then still try to take the high road lol

It would be the consequence of your wish.

Do you? Do you really hope that the commentor above yelled at a child to “literally fuck its own face”?

I see it as much more of a “huh, thought you said you’d be ‘strong on defense’, but that didn’t pan out”

This is the official party platform of the democratic party. This is where they write and then vote on what their party plans to do, not some media piece to dunk on Trump. This is about what they want to do once they’re in office. It’s their action plan, it’s not meant to rally voters by comparing their candidate to Trump.

Read the paragraphs before that, the section that starts with

Through aggressive diplomacy backed by U.S. military power, the Administration has worked alongside our allies and partners to deter and defend against Iran and its terrorist surrogates.

They’re proudly displaying their aid in genocide and how they are bombing the middle east and promising more. It’s also telling that they are constantly comparing Bidens presidency to Trumps. They absolute plan to stay the course they just switched out the front.

Compare it with their 2020 platform:

Democrats will call off the Trump Administration’s race to war with Iran and prioritize nuclear diplomacy, de-escalation, and regional dialogue. Democrats believe the United States should not impose regime change on other countries and reject that as the goal of U.S. policy toward Iran. We believe the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) remains the best means to verifiably cut off all of Iran’s pathways to a nuclear bomb. The Trump Administration’s unilateral withdrawal from the JCPOA isolated us from our allies and opened the door for Iran to resume its march toward a nuclear weapons capacity that the JCPOA had stopped. That’s why returning to mutual compliance with the agreement is so urgent. The nuclear deal was always meant to be the beginning, not the end, of our diplomacy with Iran. Democrats support a comprehensive diplomatic effort to extend constraints on Iran’s nuclear program and address Iran’s other threatening activities, including its regional aggression, ballistic missile program, and domestic repression

This is a clear shift in rhetoric towards Neocon Warhawk.

It’s their own words my dude. Fucking blue maga.

They accuse Trump, who famously had Soleimani murdered, of being weak on Iran. From the Official Democratic Party platform

All of this [ed: prior 3 paragraphs all about bs Biden did against Iran] stands in sharp contrast to Trump’s fecklessness and weakness in the face of Iranian aggression during his presidency. In 2018, when Iranian-backed militias repeatedly attacked the U.S. consulate in Basra, Iraq Trump’s only response was to close our diplomatic facility. In June 2019, when Iran shot down a U.S. surveillance aircraft operating in international airspace above the Straits of Hormuz, Trump responded by tweet and then abruptly called off any actual retaliation, causing confusion and concern among his own national security team. In September 2019, when Iranian-backed groups threatened global energy markets by attacking Saudi oil infrastructure, Trump failed to respond against Iran or its proxies. In January 2020, when Iran, for the first and only time in its history, directly launched ballistic missiles against U.S. troops in western Iraq, Trump mocked the resulting Traumatic Brain Injuries suffered by dozens of American servicemembers as mere “headaches” – and again, took no action

Edit: this is from a couple days ago, in case the fact that it was clearly written with a Biden candidacy in mind throws you

We will make sure America has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world

The overton window is currently at: Neocon Warhawk.

Sounds like xi is the lesser evil compared to the US presidents then… but most of what you said is untrue.

Liking leaders because of their policies and not because of who has more rizz is just completely unheard of for you is it?

Depends on the environment you want to foster. There are already lotsa places where these kinds of “debates” are had (lemmy.world for instance) but really no place where the people that are being debated about can relax and not have to be confronted with the dehumanization they already are confronted with in their daily lives.

Hexbear prioritizes the latter.

Downvotes are disabled on hexbear just fyi. One of the reason people leave a comment with stuff they disagree with. But upvoting yeah, very active userbase very actively upvoting means a lot of my feed on lemm.ee is from hexbear.

if people steer clear of our buses and trains because they’re busy doubling as psych wards and homeless shelters.

is not tame at all it dehumanizes some of societies most vulnerable. Imagine someone who has been in a psych ward or a homeless person reads this, and keep in mind both can be found posting on hexbear.

Right because this corner of the internet is so important and well-visited we gotta spend our state funds on a propaganda network, planting the seeds years in advance of it being able to germinate and fill it to the brim with emojis. Do you even know what a good bot costs nowadays? Vladimir Putin would have our heads.

They take transphobia very seriously there. There was a whole thing about lemm.ee defederation, they defedded from blahaj because of that etc.

Why you gotta drag horses into this? Im not saying this as a bit, but genuinely why do you think its ok to denigrate an entire species of animals just to insult someone?

No it wasn’t? What is it that I would be dismissing? I am accusing her of being a friend to cops and of supporting genocide. Not dismissing anything she said.

Besides, the word choice of the replier was that I wasn’t “worth” being taken seriously, that’s a hell of a lot more than dismissing my opinion.

No I didn’t. I’m not arguing with Harris. And even if I did there is a difference between calling someone a mean word and dehumanizing words like “you’re not worth” something.

1. Doug Emhoff is suggesting that the anti-genocide protests are motivated by antisemitism. His main points is to deligitimate these protests, not to draw a distinction between Jewish people and Israeli.

2. Harris’ words are complete nothing-burger bolstering Biden’s appearances of giving aid, or calling for aid or getting real angry with Netanyahu for the 16th time. There is nothing of substance there. “Please give the victims of your genocide some more food please?”. Right now on the campaign trail is the time to call for actual action or promising it, to say something against the genocide and yet she is silent. I shared the article to show what she isn’t saying.

3. Why is her response to “We won’t vote for genocide” not distancing herself from Israel’s crime, like instinctually? They’re accusing her of being part of a genocide and instead of saying “woah I’m not part of that” her response is “well guess who would be worse!”.

There is nothing to suggest that Harris wouldn’t do exactly what Biden is doing. She can’t even say she would do anything to stop Israel. Not even while she is trying to win voters on the campaign trail, a time when politicians makes the grandest promises. It’s wishful thinking to believe that anything would change about the US stance to Israel and it’s crimes once she is elected.
