Where is the outrage? Where have all the "humans" gone? Israel slaughtered over 300 innocent civilians in Gaza last night. Most of them women and children.

None of those with #Ukraine, #Canada, #Mexico and #EU flags on their profile raising their voice condemning this outrageous crime.

The sheikh wandered around the city with a lamp

I'm tired of all the devils and the death, and seeking one human

They said it cannot be found, we have searched, As we said before

That which cannot be found I desire

کز دیو و دد ملولم و انسانم آرزوست

گفتند یافت می‌ نشود جسته‌ ایم ما گفت
آن که یافت می‌ نشود آنم آرزوست

Hello, different poster stumbling on the thread. Just to head you off, maybe the other guy feels bad, but you would be mistaken in assuming I feel bad. I'll be fine (probably) under Trump and would welcome death at this point anyway because I hate almost every one of my fellow citizens now and there isn't much to live for anymore.

And I don't think it realistic I convince you of anything nor do I care in the sense that I think convincing you would have any material impact because at this point we probably wont even have elections in the future anymore anyway. (I don't even know if you are an eligible american voter anyway)

So now that I've established that I lack the material bias:

Trump is worse for Gaza than Harris would have been.

So why am I bothering to tell you this if it doesn't matter materially anymore? We lost. Because its a stark reality that hurts you emotionally once it really sets in, and I hate you. I hate you so much. And I want you, specifically, to suffer with this knowledge. Because it'll give me a momentary respite of dopamine hits to dunk on you while my country becomes a fascist nightmare.

Of course, you probably will simply reject this reality because you are willfully ignorant as a means to protect your frail psyche.

Oh also I literally don't care if you call me a shitlib because what you've had to say thus far demonstrates that your opinion is completely worthless. And you would be simply wrong. I don't benefit from capitalism, I have a negative net worth, don't own my own home, I work a low paying office job, and I am not a liberal ideologically.
