Am Canadian.
Canada didn’t exist a few hundred years ago.
Are we made up people too?
Yes?
Have you seen Canadian money? Its like Monopoly bills.
And maple syrup doesn’t exist. Who even believes you can get sugar from a tree?
/s
All people’s nationalities are made up.
Just like all nation state borders.
Just like all religions.
Hell, someone pulled your vaunted, family crest owning last name directly out of their asshole at some point in your ancestry. It’s all just ego stroking bullshit.
The problem, as always, is that people take these made up bullshit designations seriously, to the point of mass murder.
We are all actually the same species, capable of similar highs and lows of emotion, of pain, of hunger.
Too bad most everyone refuses to start and end with that, because if we’re all equally deserving of empathy and resources, how can I get mooooooaaaaar than those other people I’m clearly better than? Because my Parents, President, and Priests said I deserve more than those bad people that live in the wrong place and suck the wrong imaginary friend’s imaginary dick.
Mike fucking Huckabee… The next four years going to be a remake of American Psycho 2, live on stage.
I’ve already commented but sorry I got to say
“The first ever mention of an ancient land called Israel was by an Egyptian Pharaoh, Merneptah, 3429 years ago,” reads a meme that has made the rounds on Facebook. “The first ever mention of an ancient land called Palestine was by an Egyptian opportunist, Yasser Arafat, 57 years ago.”
Literally the Do you have a flag argument.
Doubly insane when the first mention of what’s thought to be the Palestinians was by Ramesses III, 3199 years ago.
It’s as if “first” has become a legitimate argument for existence
The entire United States has some problems if “was there thousands of years ago” indicates who should be allowed to control and oppress people now.
Americans voted for this, especially if they blew off voting.
Americans voted for this unless they didn’t vote or votes third party.
…or voted for Harris.
Nope, a vote for Harris is a vote for the complete destruction of the Palestinian people. Harris was very clear in her campaign, it was one of the only thing she was consistent about.
As long as you ignore all the times she called for a ceasefire, sure.
Just like Spider-Man was just a guy, if you ignore all the super powers.
A temporary ceasefire isn’t a ceasefire, it’s a rearming period for Israel that they will violate first. As much as you people hate to admit it, history did not start on 10/7. Israel has always violated its ceasefires.
More importantly, most importantly, Harris stated repeatedly she would not change from Biden’s policy on Israel, which is unlimited unrestricted arms with no red lines, so by Harris’ own campaign she would have continued armi g Israel after Israel violated whatever ceasefire, if Hamas ever allowed such a predictable set up to happen again.
Israel fucking bombed an embassy in a third party country for fucks sake.
I wonder why your account is like 30 seconds old and singularly focused on this issue. Probably because you’re not evading a ban.
Because I switched to an instance with much better and more solid admins that can keep an instance up and working. But if you think I’m evading a ban, modlogs are open on lemmy. Now that the ad hominem is settled, why not get back on topic before you get banned give this community’s rules.
Wow amazing argument.
Mike lookin a lot older since I last saw him, hope he dies soon 🤲
It’s weird that he’s still even a thing in politics. He’s recently just been running some irrelevant conservatism for kids grift. Why would he even be on the list of people to elevate?
I feel like Trump does value loyalty, as we’re seeing with the people he’s elevating in this transition. It seems to be people who never really wavered in their sycophancy toward him, while others were jumping ship or hedging when he lost to Biden.
I imagine it is specifically because of what we are discussing in this thread.
Dehumanizing Palestinians is hardly a trait unique to Mike Huckabee.
“Made up” people or made up “people”? Quotes matter.
The whole world is about to take an L because of us
If you call yourself anything but a human being, youre making it all up
when one of the people you hate most in the world makes a valid point, it kinda stings
Ok so i guess isrealis is made up too
Dehumanisation is a valid point these days? What a time to be alive!
I wish it wasn’t so tragic, so I could laugh at people who couldn’t vote for Harris because Biden didn’t single-handedly stop the genocide.
The great majority of those people aren’t on here talking about it anymore.
No, your admin and mods banned those accounts in the lead up to the election under the reason “troll,” because you people (meant as offensively as reasonable) can’t take opposing view points or the guilt of explicitly supporting genocide.
If two bans was all it took to silence all those voices, they weren’t that plentiful to begin with.
“two” who the fuck mentioned two bans?
.world mods are more ban happy than reddit mods post IPO announcement.
Yet here you are. You must be stealthier than the others. Don’t worry, I won’t tell them you’re here.
Do whatever you think is necessary little one. I swear you redd*tors only left reddit because you heard the cool kids were doing it.
It’s ok, friend. I like that your mere presence refutes your own argument and that your attitude shows the kind of things you generally get banned from instances for.
So how old is your account? A day? You sure showed me! You’re doing great, buddy!
I suspect we both know which two they are talking about
Well, the Russian trolls aren’t needed anymore now that Trump won.
Now the same accounts are blaming democrats for not going far enough left. I think the goal is to push democrats and republicans so far apart on the political spectrum that nothing gets done.
Yeah if only the Democrats had went more right. That would have saved things this time around. Also thanks to Biden talking about “moving together” and “healing” in 2020 the Republicans deradicalized…
Nothing the Democrats could have done would have convinced 10 million fascist-enabling morons to vote.
We’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of options. Let’s move to the right.
Really? Then how came 12 million more people voted for Biden in 2020?
Because there was a pandemic that resulted in the highest voter turnout ever.
Doesn’t seem they are entirely gone.
We are just left with the useful idiots that unfortunately bought into it.
There’s always some real humans duped by the bots and at this point they have 2 choices: accept they were duped or go all in.
Yeah, shocking.
The great majority are still thinking about Trump might concept of a plan.
But happily downvoting. I hope all the terrorist simps here are happy for going after Harris, because this is the result they consequently wanted.
He not only did not attempt, in any way to stop the genocide, he sent troops to aid the genocide. There isn’t anything else Trump can do except donate gas chambers and trains.
Keep telling yourself that in 6 months when American aircraft are bombing Gaza and the West Bank.
They were filming themselves over “the holy land” not sure why you think they aren’t already doing it.
They already are, Israel does not have home grown aircraft. American aircraft with American trained Israeli pilots maintained by American trained Israeli maintenance workers are dropping American made and paid for bombs on Palestine and have been since before Trump’s family had money.
There is nothing Trump can do that Biden is not currently doing to Gaza.
Today they were kinda proved right, though. After having imposed another deadline on Israel and that deadline having again expired they again won’t stop sending arms to Israel. Even when this is the last fucking chance before Trump is taking over. You can’t just ignore this shit.
I didn’t expect Biden to stop the genocide.
I expected him to try.
I, for one, am shocked by. Shocked I tell you.
Who could have guessed Trump would appoint somebody who doesn’t recognize the victims of genocide as real people? It’s not like Trump called pro-Palestinians protestor “pro-Hamas thugs” and “jihad sympathizers” or said “I will give Israel the support that it needs to win but I do want them to win fast” or called attempts by Biden to negotiate a cease fire an attempt to “tie Israel’s hand behind its back”.
How could anybody have known? By looking at how he handled conflicts in the area during his first administration? What are we? A nation of nerds that try to make educated decisions about our political leaders?
/s
What real difference does this make though? I honestly don’t see what actually is going to change in Gaza. Yes, Biden isn’t overtly racist against Palestinians, but he doesn’t consider them human beings either. He’s given Israel a complete blank check to do whatever they want. And I expect that to continue unchanged under Trump. As a practical matter, I really don’t see what Trump can do that Biden already hasn’t. Trump will just be a lot ruder about it.
It least he is not going to lie about his intentions.
Seems like you are poorly read and have a bad imagination.
Luckily for you, I don’t think it will take long for you to witness first hand what Trump can, and will, do that Biden or Harris would never.
That should make things better for the Palestinians.
thanks for not voting. that was really smart
