I think you mean popular, not populist, but yes.

They’ve been occupying it of course, but they haven’t started carpet bombing it yet like they’re doing to Gaza.

It’s bad news, not bad faith. You still can’t bring yourself to admit that Trump winning is a disaster for Palestine.

Yes, sorry, you’re right, every piece of bad news about Trump is actually about Harris. My mistake.

You can’t even bring yourself to admit that the announcement of extending the kind of carpet bombing we’ve seen in Gaza to the West Bank is a bad thing.

You can’t even bring yourself to admit that the announcement of extending the kind of carpet bombing we’ve seen in Gaza to the West Bank is a bad thing.

And yet here we are with Israel announcing that they can start on the West Bank now that Trump won. But no, go ahead with your bOtH SiDEs shit, it’s so rational and Principled.

The West Bank. That’s where they’re going to start. As announced. Because of Trump winning.

There’s genociding the West Bank as well as Gaza, as currently suggested now that Trump has won. You might not see a difference between 40% and 100%, but your joint winners Netanyahu and Trump do. You sure showed Harris there.

You had a big argument with someone not because of what they said but because of what you believed that also believed?! Now you think they believe something different it’s all OK? Weird.

You’re seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better?

am i wrong?

Yes.

I’m not sure you’re replying to the post I wrote, or I just don’t understand who you’re talking about.

Absolutely disgusting to not vote Harris to stop this from happening.

Disgusting.

Morally repugnant.

You were warned. You knew what would happen.

You wouldn’t even cast a vote to save a single Palestinian life and you’re trying to claim some sort of fake moral high ground. This is on you. You are complicit in Trump’s victory and all the horrible shit that’s coming, because you knew what the stakes were and you thought it was more important to “teach the Democrats a lesson” than to lift a finger for the people of Gaza, of the West Bank, of Lebanon, of Ukraine, women, LGBTQ+ folk and basically anyone who isn’t a millionaire.

You gave them all a massive fuck you because for some insane reason you thought that letting the genocidal maniac win would teach the Democrats that you can’t win whilst arming genocide. Great logic there.

You know the West Bank isn’t Gaza, right? And that it’s much, much larger, no? You’re seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better? You sick duck.

In the sense that a puddle and the sea are both wet, maybe.

I think that one comes under the category of superficially balanced by criticising both parties, and technically correct, but out of date in terms of remaining debt and wildly, grossly misleading in terms of the picture it paints.

I’ve got bad news for you: Trump is going going to be an autocrat. She should be stopped by the course. I’m not going to become anything, and you bizarrely seem to think that the thing I hate about the republicans is that criminals go to jail, but that’s really not anything to do with what I dislike about the republicans.

You’re misunderstanding me. It doesn’t blow my mind that a Democrat should go to jail if they break the law, of course they should.

Great.

I wholeheartedly agree that everyone should be subject to the rule of law and that both republicans and democrats should be tried for their crimes.

Yeah. This.

A few months ago I would have agreed with you that Trump ought to be locked up.

Aw, shoot. (Not literally, of course.) And we were getting along so well.

If he had been locked up 18 months ago, that would have been fantastic.

Hooray!

However, after much thought I’ve come to the conclusion that the only way forward is for him to be beaten in the election.

Dangit. He should still be locked up. Republicans will be outraged. Outraged, I tell you, every time Republican felons go to jail for crimes they did commit, but that doesn’t mean it shouldn’t happen.

I keep answering the question again and again and it keeps blowing your mind and you think I mustn’t mean it.

I want the courts to decide who is guilty and apply the law. No matter who. I don’t think ex presidents should be above the law, and very very very much neither did the founding fathers.

What I don’t want the courts to do is ignore the law just because someone is a Republican, and you think I can’t possibly mean it and that there’s a massive gotcha for me because there’s a theoretical possibility that a Democrat candidate would go to jail, but the crazy thing is that I really do think that that’s how the law should work.

It’s called the rule of law, and republicans think it means they can put people they don’t like in jail, but actually it just means following the rules irrespective of who the person is.

I don’t know why you think someone should escape punishment just because they might be elected, particularly if they’re guilty of crimes that are supposed preclude them from being president.

If the electorate is stupid enough to elect an insurrectionist and serial bankruptee then public institutions including courts must allow them to do so. That’s a fundamental inescapable component of democracy.

No, the constitution says he’s ineligible to be president because he’s an insurrectionist. Just the same as Arnold Schwarzenegger is ineligible to be president because he wasn’t born in the USA. It’s not election interference to keep Trump off the ballot paper any more than it is to keep Arnie off the ballot paper, and it doesn’t matter how many people want Arnie or Trump as president, those are the rules of the election. He ought not to be on the ballot paper and the courts should have ruled on this years ago. “BuT DemOCracy” doesn’t overrule the constitution. If you want a different constitution, you need to get it through the process of passing an amendment, but as it stands, he’s ineligible.
