Some comrades over at Hexbear have organized a donation drive for Palestine and, over the past few weeks, have managed to raise over $1500 for verified Palestinian fundraisers. The fediverse is a good place full of good people.

      They can send it with a note that says “Were not sorry we explicitly fought against the person who was running against the current bastard that’s helping Israel kill you, but we read a lot of theory and we know we’re right. Here’s $1500 bucks, maybe you can use it to read more theory”

        Great job blaming the left for the faults of the US government and assuming that most hexbears are even from the US (the one organizing the fundraiser is a Spaniard, as I am, check their post history and username).

        Also, both bastards want to kill them, though, your logic doesn’t apply once you remember the current phase of the genocide was initiated during Dem rule.

          Read that again, I didn’t make any assumptions about where they are, but I’m not wrong. They fought Kamala like they were getting paid. There’s no way Kamala would have been worse, you’ll have to invent new lies to make that one stick.

            Kamala fought ‘herself’.

            In USA you need independents to win elections. This has been established fact for many years. Independents outnumber Ds and Rs, at 40% registered (with R30/D30%).

            Harris ran an odd campaign, you can see many articles about it… she did a huge amount of Republican outreach, more than I’ve ever seen or heard of… and even ads, like “He doesn’t have to know how you voted” and so on, for months when she was already short on time.

            They don’t do that in my experience, it’s unusual to say the least. Independent votes are their target, much more susceptible for voting D than any R.

            Why did they waste all of this time and money on REPUBLICANS?

            I know why, and so does Kamala and the DNC. They aren’t stupid.

            She went against the math and went for her opposition’s votes… she took a knee.

            If you disagree, if you’re familiar with US politics and know of a different reason, please share. I want to be wrong.

              She stuck to all her leftwing policy position and only compromised on 80/20 issues like border security.

                  There seems to be some confusion. When I say leftwing policies, I’m referring to liberal democratic policies, universal healthcare, robust public transit, social equity, environmental protections and human rights. You think leftwing means authoritarianism, state violence and the suppression of human rights so I understand why you’re upset that Harris doesnt have those policies.

                    If liberals ever start actually doing any of those, you can start calling them liberal policies. Liberals have fought for none of those as hard as they fought to make sure netanyahu got his genocidin’ weapons. Liberals usually find just enough no votes, and if they cared at all about human rights, they wouldn’t keep insisting that everyone vote for genocide.

                    You think leftwing means authoritarianism, state violence and the suppression of human rights so I understand why you’re upset that Harris doesnt have those policies.

                    Leftwing means the policies you listed that no centrist has ever wanted. Especially Harris.
