Donald Trump is already laying a sweeping set of policy goals should he win a second term as president.

So it looks like Trump has read the fascist playbook or something. I’m not surprised. I am concerned.

Edit: After thinking about it, I guess I am surprised that he can read.

    That’s just a baseless “I’m rubber you’re glue” argument.

    2000 isralies have not been killed by hamas in the past year and a half.

    The UN reports 260.

    The UN also reports 11 thousand Palestinians dead.

    Hamas can fire missiles all day and none of them touch Israel.

    Israel is shelling for 20 hours a day and each shell kills Palestinians.

    Hamas is resisting Israeli oppression and slaughter.

    Israel is playing with the toys America gave them, or, um, slaughtering innocents.

      The UN claims no such thing, they state they will not make any claims about casualties in the ongoing conflict until independent verification can occur.

      And 260 Israelis were killed at the music festival, many other locations were hit by Hamas on Oct. 7th.

      Only Palestine claims 11,000 civilians have been killed, that does not mean 11,000 civilians have been killed. Remember when Islamic Jihadists misfired a missile into a hospital parking lot, then Palestine claimed 500 civilians were killed by Israel as a result? Yeah, Palestine has been fucking lying this whole time. If you don’t believe 2,000 Israeli civilians were killed, then you sure as shit shouldn’t believe 11,000 Palestinians have, because we know Hamas and Palestine have been lying about those numbers.

      And again, Hamas is allowed to attempt to murder Israeli civilians with no repercussion? That’s fucking absurd. The only reason thousands more Israeli’s have not been killed is because of billions of dollars in defense missiles, and the fact Israel actually moves it’s civilians away from targeted areas unlike Hamas who actually stop Palestinians from fleeing South because they need their human shields.

      But in your mind that’s A-ok, it’s fine to spend each and every day attempting to kill thousands of Israeli civilians. God you’re fucking racist.

      And Palestine has been trying to kill Israel since the end of the British mandate in 1948 when the Arab nations got together to try and eradicate the Jews. Palestine’s situation today is of it’s own making.

        Broseph.

        We ain’t gonna agree.

        You’ve made me pause once by my count.

        Don’t know if I’ve made you pause.

        I won’t support genocide. I don’t think the response to a human shield is murdering the terrified innocent.

        I think Israel is an angry hot headed martyr making machine.

        I think every oppressed population will form a resistance force.

        I think Israel can just sit back, enjoy the iron dome, and give their neighbors food and water. That would irradiated hamas.

        Share your wealth with good people, and good people will expel terrorists.

        Murder good people and force them to turn to a terrorist for protection.

        I think your philosophy presented is horse shit, and it doesn’t compel me to adopt it.

        Think you feel about the same about my philosophy.

        …

        I still sleep easy at night knowing I don’t put “kill the innocents” out into the world.
