Tell me again how Harris would have been worse, please.
Liberals would still be plugging their ears and making excuses for the slaughter, like you did for Genocide Joe.
She promised to continue providing material support to Israel's genocide, I'm not sure where you got the idea she would have been better.
tell me again how the people actively aiding the genocide would be any better, you fucking nerd, lol
polls showing the democrats lost literally millions, multiple millions, of votes solely due to their tireless support for the right for Israel to kill Palestinians
They could have, idk, stopped
They could have just lied about it, like they always do, and they didn't even do that
And yet somehow in your dumb fucking dipshit mind, Trump also supporting genocide means these people would have been better? Better than... someone doing the exact same fucking thing they were, and would be, doing anyway? What the actual fuck is wrong with you.
The question is how would Harris be any better
She certainly wouldn't be pushing to build a resort. And at one point (before she was a candidate) she was pushing to have Israel investigated so they could legally block support.
It's no surprise that she parroted the party line in an effort to get elected.
No, she would have quietly let the Free Market sort it out instead of making money openly from her role in the genocide, which would just be garish.
Yes, I've been assured she was, what was the phrase? Working tirelessly to secure a ceasefire the whole time, somehow. If that's true, I guess she's just terminally ineffective at her supposed job then.
The party line, in this case, being uncritical tacit support for Israel's torturous extermination of Palestinians.
So what you're saying is, she's a politically ineffective coward who isn't even a nazi in her heart but just went along with it because she thought it would help her attain power. A fascist and a loser.
Under Harris, the same thing would have happened, but liberals would have defended it.
Like others here have said kamala wouldn't have stopped this. The end goal of both her and trump were always enabling israhell to carry out it's final solution on gaza.
For all the people who are defederated from the hexbear people, the question is how would she be better. The only thing that would stop Israel from committing the final solution here is stopping military aid to israel and Harris repeatedly said she would not put any requirements/ provisions on military aid.
She may complainant bit more about how horrible this is, but words don't mean shit if your still sending them bombs to level gaza.
EDIT: the answer to both questions is she wouldn't, she wouldn't have been better or worse
Nono in fantasy land Harris would've 100% put an end to the Palestinian genocide if only you people would've voted!
If people are defederated from or blocking hexbear people, it's for a reason. You don't need to regurgitate their talking points on your dbzer0 alt because people aren't seeing the posts from your hexbear main.
The op asked a question, even gave a please asking for a response, and the only responses were from hexbear accounts.
Do you actually want answers for these questions, or do you just want facetious bad faith questions and have an echo chamber respond back that the other guys are idiots?
Also you caught me, your right anyone left of you who doesn't think Harris wouldve saved gaza is obviously a tankie hexbear alt. No need to actually engage with my argument either because I'm a tankie and obviously wrong.
You didn't even answer OPs question. You answered a different question they didn't ask because you don't have a good answer to their question.
If you want an echo chamber go back to scrolling hexbear on your main.
And you can't give a good answer to my question, because the answer to both questions is she wouldn't, she wouldn't have been better or worse. Here I'll even edit my original post, does that make it better?
If you think Harris wouldn't have been better you're grossly ignorant, not that I even set out to answer your question because frankly I don't care about you.
You think she’d be building a hotel on their bones?
Uh oh you triggered the hexbear tankies.
I thought they lost their domain. It was blissfully quiet when they were gone.
It seems they found another.
She would have been better in every single way.
But you can’t admit that when your garbage dump of a post communist government depends on chaos in the civilised world to not roll over and finally die.
