Google Jeb Bush posted:setting aside whether homeless people count as a genocidable demographic, I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about (at least if we don't count everything about the handling of the homeless since the Roanoake Colony) I can't speak for what the OP meant, but the war in Gaza is an ongoing genocide that has caused nearly the entire population of the territory to be homeless. CNBC calls it 85% https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/11/desperate-palestinians-in-gazas-rafah-fear-coming-israeli-assault.html

Zwabu posted:Population growth is somewhat offset by Trump's voting cohort dying at a greater rate both due to being an older demographic as well as one inclined towards idiotic defiance of vaccination and public health practices during Covid. And I choose to be encouraged by the fact that Dems have performed relatively well in midterms and specials, even when Trump is NOT on the ballot, Dem voters have been doing okay turning out, I find it a bit hard to believe that they all suddenly hate Biden within the last year or so but will try to keep an open mind. The ongoing support for the ethnic cleansing of Gaza really has me leaning towards only voting down ballot. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Skex posted:Here's the deal, both sides are going to support Israel one reluctantly and the other full throatedly. I'm no longer convinced a) one side thinks they need to wait until they are in control to commit genocide b) the other will do anything meaningful to stop the first But I get where you're coming from.

Dapper_Swindler posted:yeah sounds about right. what i am curious about is if they actually rule for him. I doubt it because its loving stupid even for them. They can rule after the election that he's ineligible but because it was not decided until then, and there can be no ex post facto, he's still president because he was duly election. Chaos option, this happens between the election and the electoral college votes and the electoral college picks his VP instead of him.

Kith posted:part of the reason that you shouldn't take polls seriously this far out is because the people who respond to them tend to not be a great demographic. like if you're polling via landlines in this day and age, what do you think those respondents are going to be like? "We definitely have to vote for Trump to make sure he doesn't try to execute a coup at Biden's second inauguration" is definitely a take...

Raenir Salazar posted:I'm not sure this falls at all under "Dem propaganda", maybe "US propaganda" as its the political consensus of mainstream politics in the US, but not specific to Biden or the Democrats; rather they are operating within a cultural and political framework in which they themselves are constrained by it. Much in the sameway China and Chinese politics are similarly constrained by a desire to avoid losing face even in circumstances they (Chinese politicians) know that the current course of action is not in their long term best interest re: China: Fragile Superpower by Susan Shirk as an example of this that's readily applicable to US politics and this issue. Sending a carrier group to provide air and special forces support and fast tracking military aid to Israel is more than enough nuance for "Biden supports genocide" since he has directed actions that have supported a genocide.

Raenir Salazar posted:The carrier group sent barely within a week after the events of October 7th? I don't think that at all supports the claim. As to the second point about fast tracked military aid I already responded to earlier on the previous pages for why it doesn't necessitate "supports genocide" as the only possible meaning. The genocide has been ongoing for years. Believe what you want, but Biden supports genocide. The US is actively funding and supporting the genocide of Palestinians. Has been for years and is making no steps to stop.

Mendrian posted:I think there's a valid question around how we handle the separation of trans persons in sports (and even cis persons based on biological sex, as other people have pointed out hormone distribution is hardly uniform even among cis people) and I think the society we live in is not even remotely mature enough to address it and it makes make actively anxious to think about. Like if we can settle on 'it doesn't matter in 90% of cases and people should be able to compete with their chosen sex/gender' that would be swell. Or even stop differentiating based on arbitrary societal norms and find measurable KPIs to group competitors.

Rebel Blob posted:One of those high-society groups, the Opperman Foundation, has been handing out the "Ruth Bader Ginsburg Award" since 2019. Well, they changed something about the award for this year... Are they updating the purpose of the award to recognize people with problematic racial inclinations, because that would track.

75 million is way too low a number. At best that's the union of "I'm all about the racism" and "I can be bothered to get up and vote"

Civilized Fishbot posted:I'd say "must" - it *must* view those lives as just as valuable, or it's neither modern nor liberal, it's barbaric tribalism. Sadly, both options made available to the US Electorate will provide material support for the genocide of the Palestinians. Party control of government changes... loving over Palestine is evergreen.

Leon Trotsky 2012 posted:Hamas is a political and military group and not a race. Until 2006, they explicitly had antisemitism as part of the charter for the group. In which peoples might those ancient desires have existed, since Hamas isn't ancient?

zoux posted:I think that people who feel very strongly about Israel/Palestine are massively overrepresented in media coverage and poll after poll shows most voters don't care. I like how they've intentionally split up the "It's a single Israeli's fault" from "It's every Israeli's fault" and "It's Israel and the USs fault" to make "It's Hamas's fault" look like the biggest group.
