    really great how you made a net negative sound like a positive, when in reality Leftists are just hyper focused on a facet of a larger problem and completely ignore the bigger picture because it doesn’t make them feel warm and fuzzy.

    that’s fine. Genocide is acceptable by Leftists too if it’s Muslims.

    btw, where was the leftist outrage for the millions of Wygers in China? not brown enough? not convenient enough during an election?

    so what makes lefties IGNORE Wyger persecution in china?

      Leave aside for a moment the argument we might have about what is happening in China… What the fuck would I be able to do about that? Do I vote in China? Do my tax dollars fund their military?

        And american voters also didn’t get to do anything about the palestinian genocide because there were two choices and pretending there were more is delusional at best. And the choice was between a party unwilling to take a strong stance against it vs a party actively encouraging it and saying they’d help. While also openly wanting to genocide minority groups in their own country.

        Well, there is a third choice. It’s the centrist choice of either not voting or voting for an irrelevant party, equivalent to saying “let the others decide”.

        so it’s based entirely on convenience. that’s even worse than being a racist.

        your economic dollars do. the entire American economy is dependent on cheap Wyger labor.

        how about pushing political leadership to apply pressure on China to stop enslaving Wygers? How about stop buying anything from China?

        Your money, not tax money, but YOUR money enables China to continue to enslave Wygers.

        when you go to the store, how about you look at where all your shit is made. I bet the technology you’re using to spray your liquid shititlement everywhere online is even made by Wygers in China.

        Can’t lefties get their messaging straight? You guys are the “anti-establishment” crowd. the most organized anarchists! The best corpopinkos in the world!

        I’ll just keep calling them hypocrites though.

          You have to keep the focus on China otherwise you have to face the indefensible American support of genocide. You ask me to seek influence over my own government who already rattles the saber at China, yet I can’t even influence their very direct funding of Israel’s genocide! Tell me how you imagine that would be done? Tell me how I might apply pressure on China in 1/1000 the amount I might apply on my own government.
