Where should Israel go back to then? What other land does it have claim to where it should stay?

Ah, right. Of course. You don’t think Israel should exist at all. Judging by this comment I’m guessing you don’t think the US should exist either, which means I don’t have to listen to you

Leftists often say that no one should have to justify their right to exist. Of course, they usually say it in regards to trans people and not cis white males, but they say it. And I kinda don’t want to justify my right to exist.

Ah, so even though they’re (trying to) occupy the exact same plot of land, Israel is “the west” (and therefore we’re obligated to hate it) and Palestine is not (and therefore we’re not). That makes sense now!

yunno, on second thought, maybe i don’t want to be using a social platform where communism is expressly the default stance

arguments are wasted on these people

do you think the US president has control over whether or not a ceasefire happens on the other side of the planet

I’d heard “everyone who disagrees with me is a bot” before, but I gotta say, “everyone who disagrees with me is an agent of the US federal government” is a new one.

USB-PD changes thr main voltage in response to a handshake protocol on the C1 and C2 data lines, which this cable likely doesn’t connect for precisely this reason. Qualcomm QC still uses D+ and D- to negotiate the higher voltage, which this cable likely wouldn’t connect either.

have you considered just not listening to AI bros and not letting their opinions upset you

That’s assuming this cable forwards PD signals at all.

Dear person who refuses to argue in good faith,

First of all, last I checked, Netanyahu was committing genocide, not the Democrats. Second of all, Trump has promised to funnel arms to Israel harder than Biden currently is, and he stands a very real chance of winning the 2024 election.

1. There are two choices in the United States 2024 election. No third party stands a ghost of a chance of winning. No, not even if the 30,000 people you can reach on Lemmy all vote for Timothy Greenparty.
2. A Trump victory in 2024 would not only be just as bad if not worse for the citizens of Gaza than Harris would, but also pose an existential threat to a large number of vulnerable Americans (trans people, immigrants, women seeking abortions).
3. Given the margins of victory in 2016 and 2020, Kamala might not win if leftists don’t vote for her.
4. Snoozing fascism for four years is better than inviting it through the door now, and buys us time to build our defenses for when it comes back.

I’d like to focus my counterargument. Which of these statements do you disagree with?

EDIT: why am I not surprised that you left a downvote but not a reply?

Dear Leftists,

You claim to hate whataboutism, yet every time someone suggests voting for Harris so Trump doesn’t win and thus do irreparable harm to Gaza, to large numbers of vulnerable Americans, to the climate, and to our ability to vote at all, you say “whatabout democrats”. Curious!
