im sure its been said already but as the election draws near more and more liberals will come out of the woodwork to shame people with a conscience to give away their vote to the democrats for free. i'm already seeing posts saying "why aren't people more concerned about a trump presidency?" you want to know why? it's because people already know he's bad. everyone already knows what he is and what he's done and what he'll do. there's nothing to discuss. he's a racist despotic worm of a man. there's nothing else to say.
biden is currently president. the genocide is happening under his watch. he's the one funding isra*l and arming them; he's sidestepped congress more than once to give them weapons. by oct. 27, the biden administration already knew that "Israel was regularly bombing buildings without solid intelligence that they were legitimate military targets." the state department/biden have engaged in atrocity propaganda, cast doubt on the legitimacy of the death toll recorded by the gaza health ministry, and so on. the united states is currently in the process of trying to pin the "war in gaza" on netanyahu (see sen. schumer's speech) after months of backing blatant genocide as a means to act as if they're "doing something" about the genocide (Instead of, say, threatening to cut off all aid to israel with the condition that all hostilities in gaza, the west bank, and occupied jerusalem are halted immediately and permanently, allowing palestinians freedom to travel, allowing aid into gaza, etc etc etc.)
the long and short of it is that liberals view their own lives as being worth more than palestinians'. that's it. they'll vote for another 4 years of the guy ushering in genocide and supporting apartheid + settler colonialism because he isn't outright attacking them (despite various laws and rulings happening both at the supreme court level and at the local level all over the country that will endanger people). they'll settle for the illusion of safety and security and shame anyone with a conscience and accuse them of "supporting the republicans" when in an actual democracy you would be able to use your vote as leverage to extract concessions from those who want to be elected. that's how it's supposed to fucking work.
democrats are not owed people's vote. if biden loses, it will be biden's fault; it will be his campaign's fault; it will be the democrats' fault. trump is bad; the republicans are bad. we already know this. this is not an endorsement of either. but if democrats are too cowardly and feckless and servile to the motivations of the american empire and never do anything for their constituents then why the fuck should anyone vote for them. you want to get mad at someone, why don't you do something useful and stop worrying about team-sports with a purely selfish basis and start hounding the people in power who are supposed to serve you, the voter.

Drives me crazy when people act like if you don’t vote for Biden it’ll be your fault if Trump gets elected. Actually I think it’s Bidens fault for becoming unelectable by supporting a genocide
It straight up is his fault. He underestimated the Arab population in major swing states yeah, but also he genuinely thought that he could get away with it. He thought that Palestinians would shut up and die or be subjugated. I have no interest in a war mongering genocider's protection and I believe if you feel protected by him then you are one of the people who benefit the most from the genocide of people around the world.

You guys ever heard of Fandom Trumps Hate? It's a charity auction where people trade fannish services for money that goes to, obviously, charity.
I signed up this year. You can find my page here: I'm doing a half-price commission ($15/hour instead of current $30/hour rates). This looks like it's going to be the only commission I'm even going to consider touching this year, for the record, if that sweetens the deal any.
The entire auction is a really cool thing, and you should definitely look around to see if there's anything special on there to catch your eye. It's for a good cause and everything!

I feel it's a bit ironic that the vote blue no matter who crowd are calling people who are considering withholding their vote from Biden (bc of what he's doing in the middle east) "selfish and individualistic" bc if i vote for biden again it will be for selfish and individualistic reasons.
If i refuse to vote biden it'll be bc I'm thinking about everyone. I'll being thinking about our foreign policy -- of the international community. The ONLY reason I'll vote for biden is bc I'm selfishly afraid of what will happen to ME if i don't.

I've been doing a lot of grocery delivery in the country lately, so I ordered myself a nice bumper sticker so I fit in with everyone else's stuff :)
I've seen a lot of these lately, but they were all of a pride flag I don't recognize. Not sure which gender/sexuality has the red and white stripes with the blue with white stars in the corner, but I guess it's an ok design. The rainbow is the traditional LGBT flag, though, so I feel it symbolizes the collective queer community a little better and will be a little more noticeable/recognizable than niche flags, like this stars and stripes guy.

I just want to say that if you, in any form, support the eradication, erasure, or demonise any group- be it an ethnic one, an orientation, gender, religion, etc. please get tf out of my blog and don't even think on interacting with my posts unless you've done plenty of self-reflecting and chose to be on the right side of things.

I’m scared for the kids who might unknowingly buy the Harry Potter game or the books or the movies without knowing what’s going on. We need to ACTUALLY ban this franchise. Burn copies in stores. Smash your friend’s computer if you have to. I don’t know why we’re simply telling people to “read other books” and not going full scorched earth. There’s children out there who could be entrapped into this thing and not know until it’s too late…(It’s not censorship because it’s actually bad. Only minorities should be allowed to censor things because we know best.)
Nice try, buddy.
