Liberals in the United States :
Democrats and Republicans aren’t actually against each other, they pretend to be two different parties as it is an effective psy-op to keep the populace believing in a Reformist path to change, so we do not pursue a Revolutionary path instead. As long as the populace continues to believe a Reformist path (like voting) is able to save them, the Capitalists can continue doing what ever they want, only Revolution can save us (IE we must save ourselves by overthrowing the Capitalists), and only once the people in general realize this, can Revolution actually succeed. It is also why we must keep pointing out to people how the system is rigged against us, how as long as we live in Capitalism Democracy is a lie and the oppression and exploitation and U.S. bombings will continue.
This “Good” Cop / “Bad” Cop routine has been going on for decades. Both parties are still cops and ACAB.
Just to be clear, Cops being bad is not an inherent property of them in and of itself, but rather Cops serve the State, and in a Capitalist country, the State serves Capital, and so the Cops also serve Capital, but in a Socialist country, such as China, the Cops are completely different as the State actually serves the interest of the overall masses, and so the Cops also by extension.
ACUCAB just doesn’t have the same snap to it, but Under Capitalism is an important distinction indeed. Reminds me of a Parenti quote about why socialist states have to have a significant level of state authority because of constant capitalist incursions and subterfuge.
If “stop supporting genocide” isn’t the first step, then what the fuck is? I can’t think of a lower bar, but I’m told it’s actually a “purity test”.
That’s how you’ll get President JD Vance.
Coalition building is required in any free society, and guess what, non-participation isn’t absolution.

Lemmy.ml “Don’t hate the west while looking past Uyghurs in China” Challenge (Impossible)
can provide some evidence of this genocide that doesnt originate from cia ?
The totally real invisible genocide in China folks, brought to you by literally the exact same government that just spent two years telling you there was no genocide in Gaza
Going to start ranting about white genocide in South Africa next?
We haven’t looked past the Uyghurs, actually. In fact we’ve looked very closely.
The US tried to foment division in China by funding and organizing Salafi terrorist into Xinjiang, and once its efforts failed, it made lemonade out of its lemon by concocting and promoting a genocide narrative.
The only countries pushing this narrative are the “always the same map” imperial core countries, which just so happen to be largely the same ones supporting Israel’s genocide.
Almost no predominantly-Muslim country buys the Uyghur genocide narrative, because they know it’s bullshit, because they talked to the Uyghurs themselves.

Genocide is more than just killing, it’s the deliberate destruction of a people including its culture and institutions.
(a) Show me the Uyghur bodies
(b) Show me the serious bodily or mental harm
(c) Show me the conditions calculated to bring about physical destruction in whole or in part
(d) Show me the measures intended to prevent births within the group
In accordance with China’s affirmative action policies towards ethnic minorities, all non-Han ethnic groups were subject to different laws and were usually allowed to have two children in urban areas, and three or four in rural areas.
(e) Show me the forcible transfer of children from one group to another group
violent incidents in East Turkestan
I wonder where those Salafi terrorists came from? Oh right: the US, UK, and Israel organized, funded, and trained them, as they did Al Qaeda and the various flavors of ISIS/ISIL, including the “moderate rebels” that just took over Syria.

Really tired of “both sides bad.” Political change should not be moving fast and breaking things.
Right now we have a hole to dig out from. We need to get to the point where we can vote for the people we really want.
By not voting you say that everything is fine and you are okay with the status quo.
Vote for the change we need right now. Do not let our future slip away.
Genuinly curious. With your plan to vote for the democrats to dig out of the hole the US has dug itself, how will you be able to vote for the party that you want to vote for later?
The only reason you wouldn’t want to break things right now means you still think there is good in the system. The system is working as intended and absolutely needs to be broken so something better can be made.
We need to get to the point where we can vote for the people we really want.
You people have actual short term memory loss
How many more of these stinking, double-downer sideshows will we have to go through before we can get ourselves straight enough to put together some kind of national election that will give me and the at least 20 million people I tend to agree with a chance to vote FOR something, instead of always being faced with that old familiar choice between the lesser of two evils?
-Hunter S Thompson, 56 years ago
- we find here two great gangs of political speculators, who alternately take possession of the state power and exploit it by the most corrupt means and for the most corrupt ends – and the nation is powerless against these two great cartels of politicians, who are ostensibly its servants, but in reality exploit and plunder it. *

That shithole’s banana republic politics is the longest running gag in history.
“We need to vote for change and to dig ourselves out from this hole!”
-Proceeds to vote for Democrats, who change nothing, and dig the hole deeper.
“Oh well, my memory will have reset long before the next election comes around, so we can do it all again!”

Democrats arming genocide is now “Russian propaganda”, I am so happy to see the blue maga conspiracy world crumble on contact with reality, you smug racist morons truly deserve every ounce of the confusion and impotent rage that your self-inflicted future has in store for you.
