Where are the strikes?
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Yes, why are they so quiet? I would think the appropriate response for Trump unilaterally canceling union contracts is a full blown strike, crippling the entire federal government. We should have gone on nationwide strike over Gaza more than a year ago, but we won’t even strike to save our unions? 🤦

The Black purge isn’t a figment of our imagination. The reason Trump admin even looked into Lisa Cook’s mortgage application is b/c they were searching for a pretext that their friends at SCOTUS can hang their hat on. It’s a racist purge. Also, Jeffries is terrible. www.forbes.com/sites/janice...

Replies to this skeet depresses me. No one even mentions Gaza or Palestine. So many democrats praising or knocking possible 2028 candidates and their position on Gaza doesn’t even factor. Add to that what the DNC did this week. I for one will not vote for anyone not screaming “GENOCIDE!” already.

Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
You’re refusing to acknowledge we failed to stand with Palestinians - that is why our own party massacred their families. And STILL wants to continue massacring their families. Kamala was part of the admin that sent 2000lb bombs to massacre people, & said she would change “nothing”.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Lol. No one proposed that. Good luck courting Liz Cheney voters next time.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
She was killing their families because she was watching out for their interest. Got it. Look, we stand together or we fall divided. If you didn’t go out there and stood up for their families when they need people to stand with them, then don’t be cruel and expect them to be their for your.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
“there’s no way for us to know what she would have done”…. Gee, I wish she had just old us. Oh wait, in fact she did by replying “nothing” when asked what she would do differently. And by continuing to say “Israel has the right to defend itself” when asked about ceasefire and weapons shipment.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Why? What caused them to do that? What was wrong with their demand? Did you object to what their demand was? Or you just wanted them to - too bad she and her party is killing your families but - shut-up and vote.

So Palestinian Americans and Arab Americans and other who didn’t vote for Kamala are pariah. But Kamala who doomed the party with her failed campaign is welcome. Maybe nominating her again in 2028 then lol. I’m sure she’ll shamelessly try to run again.

Dem voters were overwhelmingly for cease fire even in November. She kept gaslighting them saying she’s “tirelessly working for one” when all reports were saying that is false. When Biden admin was giving Israel cover and applying no pressure at every turn. The party has been ignoring voters wishes.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
You are not sane people. You were chanting “Kamala! Kamala!” when protesters were trying to push her to change her position so they can vote for her. You were chanting “we love you Joe” at the convention where Palestinian voices were not allowed in the arena. Now you blame those ppl kicked out. Sick
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
No, people worked really hard to help her change her genocidal position and gaslighting so she can win. She refused. Just days before election, when asked what she would change from what Biden did, she said “nothing”. She chose to ignored ppl who were hurting. Do you not find her responsible?
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
“large segment of the left are fine with it!” Get help, seriously. No one I know is fine with it. What we are not fine with is you trying to gaslight us and viticms families saying Biden wasn’t a genocidal asshole. Trump is a fascist. So is Biden. Both are true. And Biden/Kamala gave us Trump2.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
This is what I mean when I said her decision fractured the coalition and led to Trump 2.0. Even if you forget the cruelty and criminality of her position, her tone deafness led to this. And the party is staying on that disastrous, genocidal course. Because they are paid by the same ppl who pay MAGA.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Ah, I see. As long as Dems funded humanitarian causes you personally care about, they must not be accused of no evil. See how you are emotionally enraged by Trump’s USAID decision because you care about those you served. Now, imagine those with connection to Palestine who were solidly Dem coalition.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Her fuck-ups are being repeated over and over again by the DNC, Dem leadership everywhere, prospective 2028 candidates (Pete, Gavin …), and people like you who are harping on the left instead of on the people who are leading your party to the next electoral slaughter.

Listen, I voted for Kamala fucking Harris. I get the lesser-evil logic. But people like you still saving your fire for the people who had a moral and emotional objection to her genocidal policy and tone deafness, WHEN the DNC is STILL voting to keep arming Israel, doesn’t give me hope at all.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
You don’t care about USAID because of the impacted people. You care about it to the extent you can use it to make red MAGA look worse than blue MAGA (which they are). Otherwise, you wouldn’t be here arguing Biden, who claimed he saw 40 beheaded babies to dehumanize Palestinians, is not a fascist.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
And stop with the feigned concern for the victims of HIV and migrants, if you cared about people, you would have gone out on mass and pushed your party to stop the genocide and pushed Biden out long before his debate humiliation. YOU DON’T CARE. You have nothing to say about the DNC vote this week!
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
My argument isn’t that Trump is better, my argument is that you’re insane for thinking Kamala and Joe Biden are good people. You can’t put people in the position of choosing a lesser evil and then cry when they refuse to play the evil-ranking game. You had agency to provide no-evil as a choice.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
I’ll link this article again and look at this recent pictures of Democrats. The whole party is still not only palling around with bibi but insisting on sending more weapons to Israel - arming an undeniable genocide. You’re burning your head in the sand. www.democracynow.org/2025/8/27/al...
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
I linked to an article showing you that Blue fascist MAGA (known as the DNC) still thinks we should continue arming the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Proving to us that if Kamala was the president, she would be doing exactly what the DNC did this week. You’re not that different from the red MAGA.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social)
The genocide is being discussed on paper as a policy. This is easy to bring to court and convict all involved. Any democratic candidate for any office (congress, governor, senate, president) who is not calling this a genocide and not vowing to charge them with genocide won’t get my vote. Ever!

If you think Joe Biden is not guilty of the same crime as the Israeli fascists were committing - whom he was financing, arming, and giving legal and diplomatic cover to, including lying to dehumanize Palestinians (a necessary step for genocide) - then you are in a BlueMAGA cult.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
1. If anyone worked to get Trump elected, it was Kamala. Her positions fractured the Dem coalition. Do you blame her for that? 2. If we’re relegated to ranking evil, we’re already down the wrong path. Looking at the DNC vote this week, I’m not sure she wouldn’t be just as bad as Trump on Gaza.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Tell me you don’t care about Palestinian lives without telling me you don’t care about Palestinian lives. The fact that you don’t see Biden as hateful genocidal monster is why you don’t understand people who refused to vote for Kamala. You seem to be okay with some fascism.

Biden and her were gaslighting victims. And many good people saw that and said I won’t participate in elevating this monster to power. You are still harping on voters instead of Kamala/Dems who are still doing fascism. This DNC isn’t a fascist institution to you? theintercept.com/2025/08/26/d...
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
The difference between you and those left folk who didn’t vote for Kamala is that they don’t want fascism done to anyone. Genocide in service of a settler colonial project is fascism. She was steeped in it. Saying Trump is worse won’t erase her/Dems crimes. Amazing that you still don’t get it.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
This is the “shoot the messenger” step. They’re trying to delegitimize her because her reporting exposed their coordinated and well financed influence-peddling. The Dem donor class, including AIPAC, are repackaging themselves with new names and they want to influence Dem policy/views anonymously.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
lol, she’s not saying what he’s saying. Her reporting was verified by influencers who were given the contracts to sign. It stipulates not disclosing their donors. You might be okay with that precondition like the MAGA folks are, but that is the truth.

The democrats had a clear path to power that didn’t involve fretting over what Jill Stein (or any 3rd party candidate) is up to. They lost because they ignored a section of their voter base’s request and because they run a man who wasn’t even qualified to drive outside, let alone be president.

If Jim Stein was at 0.1% in the polls, liberal Dems wouldn’t even waste their time attacking her. They were upset because she was drawing voters from Kamala. But instead of pushing Kamala to win the voters back, they attack Jill. So who Jill is immaterial. The problem was within Dems’ campaign.

I know a few of the top influencers being paid by this group totally avoid talking about Israel/Palestine. Like no mention at all of the whole atrocity. One of them, Aaron Parnas, aggregates (bad) news of the day and zero mention of Gaza, and he blocks anyone who points out his omission.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
If an influencer is going on and on about how “we can’t abandon our friend Israel”, or “it’s not a genocide”, or “Mamdani is a marxist”, or “Corey Booker + Elissa Slotkin are the future of our party”, blah blah.. it helps to know if maybe a Zionist billionaire Bill Ackman is funding the influencer.
Sam (@nesha-shi.bsky.social) reply parent
Oh this donors aren’t anonymous from the DOJ. The DOJ can trace the money in seconds and find who’s who. They want to be anonymous to the public - because if we know who’s funding the influencers, we can put their message in it’s proper context (incentive structure) and maybe reject the message.

What’s even a “conservative leftist”? An oxymoron? But also, Dems who complain about Jill Stein’s “spoiler” existence are those who want to blame others for their own failures. 3rd party spoilers weren’t a concern when Obama run. BECAUSE he left no room to the left of him. He wasn’t tone deaf.
