Biden: "For fuck's sake, Israel, don't do something this monumentally stupid."
No points for guessing what comes next.
Is it ethnic cleansing?
Oh boy!
"Here I go killin' again!"
That's been happening for decades and just last week they starting displacing 1MM more. So I don't think "next" is the right word.
Ethnic cleansing comes next. It also came previous, but it will come next, too.
I have 500 on anyone who evacuated the Northern area is denied re-entry and the maps change to gaslight the world into thinking Gaza was always that small.
I don't see why they'd need to occupy anything. Occupation would imply that you wanted to control that area and those people. I think Israel knows occupation would never work and wouldn't try it. They've preferred to wall-off people in enclaves, slowly squeeze all life out of those regions, and when the people they have cornered inevitably violently lash out against their own slow-motion genocide, it's time to flatten the area with bombs again. Israel calls it "mowing the grass" and I don't think a massive occupation fits with that strategy. I think they want to break the region, scatter the people, and leave it to rot, not occupy and be forced to manage it into the future indefinitely.
Turning it into the world's largest open air prison is occupation.
Biden needs to be primaried.
The democratic party keeps making the mistake of picking a winner early.
It's too late. None of the state parties have any of the setup done for a primary. Once an incumbent president (of either party) declares they're running again their party automatically backs them. I just feel lucky we have incumbent primaries for Congress.
I mean, I'm voting for West. Democrats only hold power if we say they do. Just don't vote for Democrats ever again. The only control we have is over ourselves let's exercise it
If there's a chance then sure. But I'm not exactly going to stick a fork in my eye just to spite the Democrats.
Voting for Democrats will only exacerbate our problems. Democrats have never made societies problems meaningfully better, at least in the modern era. Its not spiting them, it's not signing off on the thing we all know will definitely happen. Voting for Biden will make things worse. Voting for West might possibly make things better. The choice is obvious.
If West has a chance sure. If not then we're just denying votes to the contest between Status Quo man and Fascist man.
