Your words weren’t left, don’t try to hide behind us

100% of my words were written from Leftist analysis.

Is meaningless, we oppose the killing, we oppose the inequality with which they treat their neighbours. We still support their existence, we just want it to be a better existence

Offering mere platitudes and "thoughts and prayers" for a better world instead of actually working towards it is idealism, not materialism. Don't carry water for fascists.

So all left wing views are propaganda, lmao. Typical right-winger.

100%, Dems are throwing the election.

Trying to use Gaza on either candidate is stupid. Genocide is a US thing, it has nothing to do with political parties.

So we need to abandon them entirely and either elect a new party or overthrow the state.

If anything we have more chances of seeing change once Kamala is in office than Trump.

Ah, "thoughts and prayers," same as always.

Which part was propaganda? I'll carefully explain any of my views. I want the genocidal settler-colonial entity Israel to be dissolved, and a democratic Palestinian state to replace it for Palestinians and former-Israelis alike.

I am taking the moral route and telling you to abandon the genocidal empire, both parties are monstrous and we either need to vote them out or revolt.

You accused me, with no basis, of being anti-communist rather than answering what you think I mean.

You being anticommunist is what I thought you meant. Those aren't unrelated.

I asked what you think I meant because I wanted to know whether you have a different view of this than I do or were simply uninformed. But between your accusations, your deflection, and your condescending responses to me, it's becoming pretty clear to me that you're not willing to discuss this in good faith. But maybe you can prove me wrong.

I have been acting in good-faith, you have been beating around the bush this entire time.

Let's start out with an easy one. What do you think I meant by "tankies"?

Communists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, etc. Anyone that actually defends AES and doesn't repeat US State Department Propaganda about the Global South.

The first-past-the-post voting system sucks; the resulting two-party system sucks; but right now we have to operate within it

Only if you think voting is the extent of political action.

The mathematics of that system entail the simple fact that if you discourage people from keeping Trump out, you are helping get Trump in

And if you encourage getting Harris in, you are helping Harris get in, who has promised imperalism, genocide, World War 3, and failed Climate action.

That makes you a Trump supporter.

In 20 years you'll look back at yourself, if leftists have managed to prevent the end of the world, as someone who supported a fascist regime and refused to lift a finger against it. I hope you'll come to your senses much sooner than that.

Vote blue until Gaza is through, amirite?

Nah, fuck Trump. The only way I could be seen as a Trump supporter is if you think voting for genocide should be the default.

You're currently batting for genocide, imperialism, climate collapse, and World War 3, but you can stop.

I was. I asked you to elaborate, then you deflected and asked what I thought you meant. I answered honestly, it wasn't an accusation, it was what you literally asked for. Please respond in good faith.

Because Israel is a settler-colonial genocidal project. It isn't a nation, it's a dog of Empire. Israel strikes first, and commits war crimes, and now you're carrying water for fascists when the victims actually push back.
