    He cannot murder people or have them murdered and not face consequences.

    I’m not discussing this with you any further. Your feelings are entirely irrelevant.

      Your interlocutor brought sources. You brought gaslighting and personal attacks and frankly lies.

      The pro-genocide wing of the Democratic Party is intellectually bankrupt in addition to being morally bankrupt.

          Centrism distilled. The only things you have to back up the excuses you call arguments are ridicule, baseless accusations, gaslighting and abuse. Like I said, intellectually bankrupt.

            Your hypocrisy is impressive. What’s more impressive is your inability to even notice it. It reminds me a lot of MAGA. You seem to share a lot of similarities.

                No… just people like you. But I get how you think you are everything. Both you and MAGA forget that there are other people that exist in the world.

                Because… The world was created for you and you alone.

                And, go ahead and note how I have never once in my entire comment history accused ALL of anyone of anything. It’s because:

                I don’t make blanket statements- like you do.

                I don’t make assumptions of an entire political ideology- like you do.

                I don’t falsely accuse entire political ideologies of shit they’re not doing- like you do. (Don’t deny this- your comment history serves as proof for anyone to see)

                I don’t victimize myself by rewording the systems of others- like you do.

                Your comment history is rife with constant accusations of shit that is easily proven wrong- while what I say about you and those like YOU, and JUST YOU and those like YOU, no one else. No other group- not leftists, not everyone I disagree with, no one but YOU and the few like YOU here to disrupt-

                … is seemingly shared by many people here. So as the saying goes, if you smell shit, and everyone else in the room isn’t shit….

                  Both you and MAGA forget that there are other people that exist in the world.

                  You’ve spent this entire thread making excuses for Biden’s support for genocide. Gazans aren’t people to you? Have you forgotten they exist?

                  Your opponent brought sources and you replied with abuse. As you do. I hope I’ve taken some of the heat so you’re not still abusing someone for being right and bringing receipts.

                  I judge ideologies in part based on their results. For example, Republicans are shit because they ban books, are openly corrupt and bigoted, they weren’t up to the task of responding to a pandemic, oppose universal healthcare, oppose workplace safety standards, support abusive police, support things like Uganda’s law that makes homosexuality punishable by death, support cruelty to refugees, support genocide in Gaza, January 6, the list goes on and on. But there ain’t a lot of Republicans here, despite your feigned paranoia that people to your left are actually maga bots.

                  There are a lot of centrists here, and centrism should also be judged by its results. Where those results are reprehensible, I will call them such. When an ideology results in supplying weapons for an ongoing genocide, that ideology is morally bankrupt. When the adherents of that ideology reliably make insultingly bad excuses for it and lob abuse at people who provide sources that contradict their excuses, that’s a hallmark of intellectual bankruptcy.

                  Now instead of talking about the issue at hand, you’ve pivoted to something you’re far more comfortable doing: ad hominem attacks.

                  And when I point out what you’re doing, you accuse me of playing the victim. It’s easier than defending that which you know is indefensible.
