I don’t think it’s too much to ask for Labour to be the Labour Party and Democratic Party to be the Democratic Party It either Labour or dems want to win another election, they need to actually stand with the majority of those who voted for them, stop enabling genocide and stand up to the right

The fact we send aid to Israel as they commit the same horrific crimes as Russia is sickening, there is no difference between Russia and Israel at this point. People can argue “Hamas and Russia” all they like but that’s didn’t stop the fact Isreal is illegally stealing land and committing genocide

I may not agree with Corbyn on everything, what I do agree with is the fact that Labour have lost touch with its own voter base and their anti-immigration, pro-Israel, anti-LGBTQ policies, pro-austerity and pro-Trump policies have killed the party.

Because regardless of my support for Corbyn, maybe Labour can see it’s losing members by attacking the poorest in society and will actually start being a liberal party again and stop emulating the last 14 years of far right conservatism.

You also can’t attack people for not voting for her, she was very very sketchy on the subject of the genocide. You can’t be blue no matter who when 30,000 died under Biden and another after him. Very little was done to push back on Israel.

I’m not lecturing you on Ukraine, however I’d be cautious on saying all democrats were fantastic on Ukraine. Obama for example is right to shut his mouth on the subject, especially when he spent a decade pushing to disarm Ukraine post-2014.

In fact not only did you give nothing, all military aid bought by Europe and NATO to give to Ukraine is marked up by 10%.

Hell, this year alone the US tax payer gave 12billion dollars to Israel. Do you know how much you’ve gave Ukraine this year? $0. You gave nothing.

Nope, I can tie it to any number of political issues that the US government have historically claimed they couldn’t pay for due to the cost. It’s not a conspiracy, the US government subsidises another countries healthcare and higher education. That’s not an unfair claim to make.

Yes, none of them are about Israel’s actions. They are about bringing the hostages back. You actually thought they cared about the people their government are committing genocide against?

My brother in Christ, It’s not antisemetic to question why Israel is the largest recipient of US foreign aid than any other country on the planet. It has nothing to do with Israel controlling anything, it’s about the US government’s complicity in genocide. www.cfr.org/article/us-a...

Seeing a lot of posts where the take is "sure Biden would have continued to enthusiastically back Israel as they eliminated all in Gaza, but at least he wouldn't have built resorts". I think these people care more about propriety than the value of human life

It’s a tiny fraction that can be paid for by another country that clearly has the money to pay for it. It’s absolutely related, it’s about time you look to your heavily lobbied politicians and ask them why dems would rather see Americans die than stop subsidising another countries genocide.

It’s not a conspiracy though, US tax payers subsidise the defence of another country. That allows them to pay for services the Us government says it cannot pay for. Are you continently ignoring that 11 million Americans had their healthcare stripped from them recently?

mondoweiss.net/2025/07/poll... I don’t know how we allow Zionism to exist in civil society after what has happened. I don’t know if Neo-Zionism and Zionism can be separated.

There is a minority of Zionists that oppose what’s happening and support a 2 state solution but that’s a small minority and it’s certainly not something that is popular in Israel. 64% of Israelis do not support a 2 state solution.

My point is if Zionists are tolerant of Neo-Zionism the form of Zionism that calls for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians and openly calls for genocide, are they any different? It depends if they are quietly watching on in horror and not opposing his actions. If not, they might just be complicit

“Uh Sudetenland is legitimately annexed territory of the German fatherland and uh the Czechoslovakian terrorists we’re oppressing the native German speaking population! Infact we don’t even recognise Czechoslovakia”

Oh, he blocked me. The slightest push back and they run back to their safe spaces. Zionists are so big and tough until they are faced with the reality that they are genocide apologists and on the wrong side of history. These same people would be cheering on the Nazis in 1930’s Berlin.

That’s not getting into Israel not charging tuition for university either. Israel get a pretty good deal, it doesn’t have to put much into its genocide machine and Americans die in debt

You could make that argument, it does seem like the reverse these days. These idiots will argue billions should be sent to Israel for their wars of choice and pay for their universal healthcare while every 6 days in the US an October 7th amount of people die due to no access to healthcare.

You don’t get to illegally occupy a sovereign territory even if you’re a puppet state of the United States. Israel barely has sovereignty itself, let’s not forget that.
