Love to burn down an acre of rain forest to generate a picture of an ape.
/u/outwrangle before everything went to shit in 2020, /u/emma_lazarus for a while after that, now I’m all queermunist!

You’re right, nothing has ever changed no matter what anyone has ever done. 🙄
It encourages people who are already opposed to Israel and its genocide to take up more radical actions.
Revolutionaries without a revolution to join. It’s, ultimately, our failure to be get organized.
They allow themselves to be kneecapped by law imo
How about a strong union on top of nationalization?
This isn’t uncommon for labor votes, actually. Generally once a strike authorization vote comes up it’s already far past the point of supermajority. Unions don’t mess around.
They can’t stop people from making bathtub wine.
I think the US can supply surplus to its neighbors.
I don’t want to be morbid, but with as many gun deaths as there are in the US there are lots of young livers to go around.
Imagine how many matching organs are just left to rot in the ground.
Maybe if donating organs was compulsory they wouldn’t be so rare.
Okay, so then you aren’t an exception to the rule and the venn diagram I described before continues to have no overlap.
If you’d allow me to clarify my point, I’m saying anyone who thinks China is committing genocide and is of voting age in the US and is commenting on political comments sections on the internet is going to vote for Israel to commit genocide. I don’t think this is a controversial assumption.
Including you? I assumed you were opposed to voting for genocide, but still believed it made sense to accuse China of genocide. Could you please explain where I was wrong?
Every other genocide in history has been accompanied by mass killing and mass detention and mass displacement. That’s what makes genocide the crime of crimes. It’s a horror with no parallel.
I think there’s a serious problem if you can have a bloodless genocide by technicality.
The venn diagram of “people who think China is committing genocide” and “people who refuse to vote for genocide” has almost zero overlap. I would be surprised if even one such person existed, but I suppose it’s technically possible.
So, congratulations, you’re a special exception to a general rule. I’d be shocked to hell and back if there were more of you.
They’ll all fucking vote for genocidal ethno-Fascists doing their very own Holocaust. They don’t actually care.
Except in this case there’s no murder. China is accused of reducing birth rates, not mass killing. Regardless of whether the accusation is true, any serious person can see there’s a very clear difference.
Also, you can definitely be charged with murder if you were critical in providing the murder weapon and facilitating the murder.
My point is China isn’t accused of doing anything close to what Israel is doing, yet the West condemns China and gives weapons to Israel. This cheapens and weakens the accusation of genocide and discredits the concept itself.
Genocide is the crime of crimes. It shouldn’t be used as a technicality to score political points.
Or (heaven forbid) learning to draw!
