It's really sad how Liberal racists like OP think they can shame others into supporting their pro-genocide agenda, and go on a whine parade after getting shut down. And how normalized their behavior is around the internet.

kingofras this isn't !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works. This is PTB, you keep not following rule 0, at this point it's BPR.
!manufacturingconsent@lemmy.ml is a /c/ to discuss haw people manufacture consent, positive or negative. It's about discovering how we are not immune to propaganda, and how many easily fall for it.

make a !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world 🧵 if you're serious about discussing a Texan election. This instance is anti electoralism, because we comprehend demagoguery. Americans, more than 80%, don't.

I’m tired of shitlibs complaining that everyone isn’t supporting vote blue no matter who and pushing electorialism.

My comments were removed and I was banned (again) for pointing out that Talarico went on to say that Netanyahu doesn't have a right to wage war on civilians, that the violence in Gaza needs to end, that we should support Palestine as much as we can, and we should come to a two-state solution that gives Palestinians self-determinance.

The name of the community is literally "manufacturing consent," and you're arguing in favor of consenting to genocide. You're the exact kind of reason the community exists in the first place

This election doesn't offer an off-ramp to genocide

So then it's not a democracy and it doesn't matter if people participate in the sham.

On the other hand, if there is some semblance of democracy, then there is always an off-ramp to genocide or anything else, which is getting people to demand it. By giving your vote to a politician who doesn't offer an off-ramp to genocide, you are choosing not to demand it, you are saying that you find what they're offering acceptable, genocide included.

If a critical mass of people refuse to vote for a candidate over an issue, then they will change their stance on that issue if they care at all about winning. If all you say is, "Hey, we'd prefer if you did this, but it's not going to have any impact on how we vote," then it doesn't matter how many people say that, they're not going to change their stance because you've given them no reason to.

Stop letting politicians tell you what is and isn't possible and start telling them instead.

I swear, the kind of trivial shit that will end a politician's career because people think it's kinda cringe, shit like the Dean Scream, and you think this is just set in stone because they say it is?

These people want trump to win. They do everything in their power to make the left look as bad as possible. They need things to get worse and the west to decend into fascism so their shitty ideology looks like the lesser evil.

I thought that community had a specific "no lesser evil" rule?

If so, it sucks but this is ydi based on what you said. I disagree with that rule when in place, but we are all supposed to at least glance at rules and not use a community if we're unwilling to follow them.

If my memory is wrong, yup, ptb, which is par for the course
