@timewarp majority of Americans don't give a shit about politics if it doesn't personally affect them.
Those who do, have elected Israeli firsters (GOP and DNC) because, again it's not important for them.
They care more about price of egg than their country bankrolling a genocide
@faab64 @timewarp The majority of U.S citizens are class A citizens of world domination regime. IF they can't elect a pro-Palestinian president it's because this global regime then #Palestinians don't have a time to wait for this majority to act.
@bhyoram @timewarp
No one is asking Americans to elect a pro-palestinian president, all we ask is to elect one that is not pro-genocide.
Is that too much to ask?
@faab64 @timewarp What I mean is that we should not waste our time hoping for inner-change in the U.S Imperialism. Palestine needs to be saved NOW and no faction of Imperialism is going to do that.
@bhyoram @timewarp
Without any support or help from the world, Palestinians will end up like Mauri people of New Zealand, they were almost entirely wiped out by (mostly British) colonialists.
Netanyahu will push Palestinians out of Gaza, EU will make some noise, Arabs make some speeches and Egypt open their borders (for a few of course) to save Palestinians
I have lost hope. This world is just too evil and roo coward to stop the Christian Zionists and Israelis to get what they want.
Neoliberalism has propped up fascism in America. The undercurrents of support for socialist policies and pro-palestinian sentiment have certainly grown a significant amount in recent years, but there is no party to represent these positions in American politics. The Democrats still prioritize capitalism and ignore the populist sentiments throughout America demanding change.
The US Empire needs to collapse. Both from pressure from the outside and from within. That's the only way I see positive change from the US with the current climate. Public opposition within the US is rising, but not enough to cripple the regime. Once commodities skyrocket, perhaps.
Franz Fanon considered that the liberation of the global south will be in tandem with revolution from within the US. This may very well be the beginning of that.
As the US collapses and can no longer support Israel as it has been, that should force Israel and zionism to also collapse. There is much more solidarity for Palestine within the global south, as the main roadblock that is the US wanes, I hope to see material support for Palestine increase
