      Baby steps

      First we say, hey you really have to stop

      Then you say, we’ll pause your weapons for a short time if you don’t stop

      Then you say hey don’t you want to do this cease fire? It’s a really good cease fire.

      Then you say you really have to stop, oh by the way here’s more weapons

      Then you have to say you know what you’ve been really good this month about not killing too excessive a number of civilians here’s more weapons

      And then the administration changes and the new administration gives a bunch of weapons

      Edit: Oh also I’m disappointed that this story doesn’t seem to have seen any discrepancy between US people coming out the meeting all hopeful for a cease fire, and Netanyahu coming out of the meeting and telling the media “yeah dude we’re gonna keep killing until we feel like we’re done, and at that point we’d be happy to cease firing, sure.”

      Guys, while he’s in the White House with all these security people around him would have been a GREAT time for the ICC to issue a warrant and for the US to say “well you know we can’t argue with that, law and order and all” and fuckin grab him. Just saying. I know it’s not that simple, you don’t want Harris to lose the election because the electorate can’t let go of their war crimes, but… fuckin live a little sometimes. You got all these security people there (definitely more than Netanyahu brought with him)… give them something really excitement inducing to do for once.

        You are delusional ahahahah. Killing terrorists is us living a little. Also give a fuck if Harris loses. She can’t even get out more than 3 words without having to look down at her teleprompter. That is seriously baffling.

          Oh for fuck’s sake are we back to teleprompters again? It didn’t work when the GOP tried it on Obama, what makes you think it’s going to work now?

            I don’t know if we watched the same speech but if she continues with that kind of performance then I do think she will face a tremendous concern.

              My guy, just as some constructive criticism, I think the “Kamala Harris is awful and no one should vote for her” stuff should be separated from the “Israel is right and should kill all the Palestinians” stuff.

              I mean I think it is unlikely that either will produce any type of useful impact on Lemmy, but definitely they will not synergize well with each other if presented at the same time. 🙂

                And I think French fries go well with hamburgers.

                On a serious note, you can be surprised of the people who use Lemmy. And I will voice my concerns how I please.

                “Israel is right and should kill all the Palestinians” stuff.

                Well I didn’t say that unless your saying Palestinians are all Hamas then hey, you said it not me.

                On a serious note voting for her may be better than project 2025. The problem I’m addressing is I don’t know if I can vote for her with this spectacular performance she gave this afternoon. I mean I am not joking. She could not get out more than 3 words. What the fuck was that? Are people going to suck it up and just vote party even if this candidate looks so damn compromised blatantly reading word for word off a teleprompt. Who is feeding her the words and does she believe them? Because she obviously did not write it sorry to point it out.

                  You didn’t explicitly say it, you just implied it. As if Israel hasn’t been targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure for almost an entire year in Gaza. We get it dude, you support Israel’s genocide.

                  There are valid criticisms of Kamala, this is not one of them. Plus none of them hold any water in comparison to Trump.
