Mexico: (which really should be Guatemala and other Central American countries where people are migrating from) deportations have scale UP under Biden.
Trans people: Biden's admin has done nothing about trans people being persecuted.
Feminists: lol
Ukraine: lol
LGBTQ: Same issue as trans people, it's all words and no action against persecution.
BLM: Police budgets have grown nationwide since the George Floyd protests.
Muslims: https://www.aljazeera.com/program/newsfeed/2024/1/31/two-women-wearing-hijabs-denied-entry-to-democratic-campaign-event
Intersex and nonbinary: ??? feels like the meme only has this group to pad.

The only organization that wants to commit genocide in Ukraine right now is Ukraine.

Biden's admin has done nothing about trans people being persecuted.

If you’ll notice, for the last 3+ years the only time the Biden admin recognizes trans people it’s either Biden reading some prepared words or whoever runs his twitter account says something very mildly supportive. Nothing ever off the cuff, much less any policies that actually protect trans people.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The last off-the-cuff reference Biden made to trans people was, afaik, responding "at least three" when asked how many genders there were by a chud provocateur on the campaign trail.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

Which tbf to him was by far the best possible answer.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

You’re forgetting the most important part: OP. They aren’t affected, so it might as well not have happened.

BLM: Police budgets have grown nationwide since the George Floyd protests.

Oh, Biden wants more Klan Citi-- I mean, Cop Cities in more states! After letting RICO charges for 61 protesters slide, and federal slavecatcher mobs sent after the ones who gave to the bail funds! Those crackers ain't helping us!

If the state of your democracy is at the point that these are the decisions you're making, you've already lost it

Guys we have to vote Jim for Kapo, he might be able to get half of us a stay of execution!

[-] [email protected] 41 points 1 year ago

Even disregarding all the bullshit about every other group that Biden is killing just as much as Trump: Pakistan? Didn't the coup happen under Biden?

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago

Liberals do not think of Pakistanis as people.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

So many of the things on the republican are already happening under Biden lol. Dude is president and managed to get Roe repelled

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Never forget

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

I would bet anything that whoever made this garbage doesn't even know that's the Pakistani flag. They simply saw a star and crescent and thought "this means Muslims" and copy-pasted it in.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

That's literally exactly what I was thinking. This makes so much more sense if this dumbass white girl just thought that was the "Muslim flag" lmao

Do they think the trolley problem has a solved, obvious answer?

Somebody call the philosophers. It's over.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

"consciously deliberately committing pointless mass murder is good, actually" is the Democrat party line

[-] [email protected] 36 points 1 year ago

Implies four things

  1. They believe there's a hierarchy of marginalized people

  2. They're willing to sacrifice specific groups of people for poltical expediency

  3. Genocide is permissible as long as only certain peoples are targeted at a time

  4. The genocide of other groups are permissible as long as the hierarchy of oppressed people is acknowledged

[-] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

First they came for the Gazans and... I supported them because I was foolish enough to think it would stop them from coming for me

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I don't even think you need to believe in hierarchy of marginalized people, all you need is to not want to see killing happen at home because it's icky up close and all of a sudden it makes a lot of sense.

Maybe I'm wrong but I came to this conclusion because it seems people don't care (or at least don't care as strongly) if LGBTQ+ people are killed in oversees conflicts, but care a lot about the idea it might happen in their country.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

That misses the fact that as genocide is normalized overseas abuse of the corresponding minority at home is also normalized; historical examples include the treatment of Japanese Americans, the explosion of Islamophobia as a result of the war on terror and recently the murders of Arab Americans and that assault on camera of a student activist by a tenured professor

No, there is absolutely a hierarchy in these people's minds and it shifts depending on which minority group and their corresponding international counterparts are in disfavor by will of the ruling class

These people also reveal their cynical intentions thru their omissions of Biden's horrific and disastrous polices that target the minorities they pretend to care about; record deportations, record police funding, prosecution of activist groups, and the refusal to even acknowledge let alone act against the unprecedented conservative anti-LGBTQ+ hate campaign of the last three years

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Yeah, I think I definitely agree with what you've said.

I still assert that people seem to care more about the risk of LGBTQ+ people being killed "close to home" versus them actually being killed in foreign conflicts; however I suspect the reason is probably because the ones "close to home" are white.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I'd add

  1. The idea you actualy have the power to stop this chain of events all together is discarded immediately. This genocide is a natural phenomenon akin to a unstoppable train which nothing can be done about it except minimizing the damage.
[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Nazism meets capitalist realism, wearing the putrefied skin of a progressive idealist

[-] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago

if you live in a society which cannot avoid committing genocide, it is your duty to destroy that society. anything else is a dereliction of that duty.

“If you don’t genocide Palestine, everyone else will be genocided, it’s just a fact.”

Ey look it's the Niemoller poem everyone loves so much, except the Libs are literally doing it and being smug about it.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I didn’t know where that “First they came for…” quote was from, but I feel like it’s been twisted. Definitely feels like an anti-fascist message to me.

Oh you said they’re quoting it and still doing it. Yeah that’s peak fucking lib.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

First they’re coming for someone else and I don’t care because it’s not me. They will definitely spare me if I lick their boots hard enough.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Why is it so fucking hard for these people to have their "come to Jesus" moment? Motherfucker look at the shit you are saying! It's literally just the "First they came..." poem all over again.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

It's really nice we're not a part of the world and we don't have to worry about the atrocities that happen in our name. I don't want to know people who would like this post.

Yeah I'm sure all the women and LGBTQ+ Palestinians in Gaza appreciate having bombs dropped on them.
I'm sure queer folk in countries the US is bombing appreciate having their public transport, docks and airports destroyed, or the extra military patrols that make it even more difficult to move about. I guess queer folk from anti-LGBTQ countries are expected to just teleport out.

how is that instance still up?

[-] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago

Some of nitter is back online. I forget the details offhand, but there is a workaround to locking out the API calls and guest accounts that nitter relied on previously, so some of nitter came back online due to this weird workaround making it possible.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
