It's also giving 1.8 billion dollars in weapons to Israel. Fuck every single dem who voted for genocide, and the few republicans who didn't vote for it because it was insufficiently genocidal.
This was included in a funding bill. If that wouldn't pass the government would shut down. You can blame Republicans for those extra things added.
the government would shut down
Good. A government that needs to commit genocide to even function shouldn't exist.
Imagine trying to use that as an excuse to fund genocide.
You can blame Republicans
Biden has been bypassing congress to send "israel" weapons faster.
Then the government should've fucking shut down. Not even close to an excuse for voting to fund genocide and I'm utterly baffled as to how you could possibly make such an argument.
I've been hearing this excuse for like a decade now.
Shutting down the government to refuse weapon sales to Israel would be a good thing, goddammit. I'd feel that maybe there's a shred of humanity left in those ghouls if they had.
Yeah, let's hurt others for your own protest. Maybe you should do your own hunger strike?
Us privileged asses in the US will suffer exponentially less harm, especially in the long term, than those of the tens of thousands we're helping fund the slaughter of.
People are missing the forest for the trees but you are right.
If Republicans force this through on every bill then at some point it would have to pass. You can't just shut down the US government indefinitely in the real world.
You can and should
They are not missing the forest for the trees. I forgot this is Lemmy.ml (they chose ML for Marxist Leninists). Supposedly they are communists, but they are actually pro totalitarianism and anti West.
They themselves don't even give a damn about Palestinians, but will cheer whatever might hurt the US and the West.
We're ad-hom'ing comments based on their instance now? Cool cool cool...
