Hold up. Are you telling me that 100,000 refugees already own homes? Be right back, need to go vote conservative real quick.

Let’s just say that, hypothetically, the OP didn’t hold a pro-Palestinian and anti-Israeli viewpoint. In that case, would they have to lie and add those disclaimers in order to be “well mannered”?

My point is that anyone should be able to ask a simple question about why South Africa are the ones filing this case at the ICJ. It shouldn’t matter what their overarching beliefs are, nor should they be required to submit their liberal bona fides before they are allowed ask the question.

That’s not good manners, that’s an echo chamber.

Only on Lemmy would you need to add all of those disclaimers before asking a legitimate question.

Nobody is going to vote for Trump because of this. But it WILL cause enough folks to get dejected and not vote at all, and that’s all it’ll take for Trump to win. Democrats need a candidate people can be excited about voting for, or they WILL lose.

The “but the other guy is worse!” approach won’t work this time.
