    I don’t think any presidential candidate would do that, even if that’s how they really felt. It’d be political suicide.

      You don’t think any candidate would condemn genocide. Condemning genocide as a US presidential candidate is suicide…

      Isn’t that how fucked America is in a nutshell.

        This is why I unironically believe Amerika as a nation, and as an identity, deserves to die. I finally figured out why Amerika won’t condemn Israel’s genocide, won’t condemn Nazism, will veto every attempt to do either-- it’s because these are the same kind of vile, murdering, thieving, and pillaging barbarian settlers as what we’re seeing in Occupied Palestine, and what we saw in Axis Germany. Only difference is Amerika completed both of its genocides in such a way that the survivors either won’t fight back anymore, or physically don’t have the numbers to meaningfully fight back anymore.
