    It’s always a vote for genocide, whether D or R or refusing to vote, the genocide keeps genociding.

    USA is world’s largest arms dealer (not hyperbole) regardless of who is in office. Vote for who you want, just for laughs. It doesn’t matter.

      Nope, your “nothing matters everyone is the same” bullshit is wrong. There are different levels of harm and the far right is objectively more harmful to more people.

          We’re talking Iran, Venezuela, Iran again, Cuba next, threats against Greenland and Canada within a few months. You really have to be clueless to pretend this is just the same thing that was happening the previous four years under Biden.

            Didn’t Obama do the same with Libya Syria and continued in Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, among others? And Biden aided a genocide so not sure what you’re on about.

              So let’s be clear: your only example of what was happening under Biden is the thing that Trump has turned up to eleven while also doing all the other things I listed.

                I thought we were talking about how a vote for team blue or team red is a vote for genocide and war? The US’ 200 ish year old history has always been based on war, stop trying to argue against it makes you look uneducated. No other country has carried out the level of meddling destruction and annihilation of entire populations that the US has carried out, either alone or by supplying its allies.

                If you want to compare, at least 75 thousand Palestinians were killed in the first 16 months (so 15 months under biden, 1 under trump) but the excess mortality is way higher according to peer reviewed studies in medical journals as indirect deaths aren’t counted in those numbers. Still, taking that 75k number, Biden surpasses the rate of killing than what trump has achieved through its operations and its allies.

                So, no trump hasn’t turned up things up to eleven. Trump has just burned bridges with some allies and couped a few countries, which is slightly more active than Biden, but nothing out of the ordinary.

                Like Mulligrabs said, regardless of which side of the coin you choose, the US is sure to come and destroy everything you have (or supply someone to do it for them).

                “Oh but he’s upsetting allies” what the fuck does that matter? The world doesn’t care that a few allies are upset when they’re getting bombed by America.

                The US is an empire and I sincerely hope it collapses.

                  I don’t care to continue this discussion, but it’s clear you shouldn’t make any allusions to someone looking uneducated when your own portrayal of what Trump is doing makes you look like you understand geopolitics at the level of a five-year-old.

                    Please enlighten me about how Trump is breaking off from any other president when it comes to foreign policy. You also still haven’t given a single backing as to how Trump has turned things up to eleven.
