      You didn’t look at your own poll last time and you didn’t look at it this time either. Here, let me point it out again, this time with a screenshot:

      Oh, would you look at that, only right-wing conservatives and republicans edge out in favor of giving aid to israel’s campaign of genocide. For some reason you think we should be catering to republican fascists. Are you sure you’re not the one who is the fascist? You love using projection like they do and you insist that “most Americans” support fascist policies.

        It’s amazing that you post the screenshot and STILL don’t read it correctly. Here, let me remind you of what you originally said:

        If ending genocide was actually a choice on the ballot instead of two ghouls who both support genocide, I bet most would vote to end genocide.

        Thinking most people would be against genocide is spreading misinformation?

        But fascists aren’t well-known for their stunning memory of what they said in the past ten minutes either, so that’s not a surprise.

        Of course, the fact that you explicitly advocate for voting for a genocide of American minorities makes this position, in context, utterly unsurprising.

          As I pointed out months ago, your poll is from february (older than my poll) and more people have been turning against israel as their campaign of genocide drags on. Even disregarding that, it’s interesting that you’re trying to paint a one percent difference between the favors and opposes as “majority of Americans”, giving more importance to fascist opinion even though this is a difference within a margin of error and, again, this is a poll from february when israel has been losing support. You really shouldn’t be lobbing accusations of others being fascist when you elevate fascist opinions like this.

            I didn’t realize “Your poll is older!” is a response to “Your poll literally doesn’t say what you claim it does”.

            Even disregarding that, it’s interesting that you’re trying to paint a one percent difference between the favors and opposes as “majority of Americans”,

            Funny, if you go back through our comments, the only person claiming that a majority of Americans would be voting for or against something is… you.

            Huh. Weird. Almost like projection is one of the few tools you have.

            But sure, 36% is a majority. Great math you have there. Like the math the Italian fascists used to ‘make the trains run on time’.

                “Your poll is from February!” he says, as he posts a poll from February. “Your poll is within the margin of error, just 1%!” he says, as posts a poll within the margin of error, literally just 1%. But hey, opting for no “Unsure” or “Neither” option really makes your ‘majority support’ of 48% ‘more likely to vote for’ (and notably not an actual policy position) that much more convincing.

                lmao

                Fascist hypocrisy is so predictable. More than their trains, that’s for sure.

                  The poll I posted is later in february, showing the trend away from supporting israel’s campaign of genocide, so good job missing the point. Tell me more about how I’m supposedly the fascist even though you’re trying so hard to elevate support for genocide. Tell us all why we must support genocide because republicans overwhelmingly favor it.

          No contradiction there. The former is a statement of well-documented fact and the latter is an incredulous reaction to your bizarre claim

              Which is a separate question, especially to the ones who mistakenly think that Israel isn’t to blame for the genocide or that they’re not the only ones perpetuating it.

              Are you even trying?

              To get through your thick skull that some people have a favorable opinion of Israel in spite of being against their genocide? Yeah. That it’s not working is entirely due to your seemingly willful resistance to simple logic.

                Why don’t you go ahead and ask them who they’re voting for? I’ve had enough encounters with Hark to know their song and dance.

                  No, not people who are active participants in the genocide who have vowed not to stop no matter what.

                  A civilian who still instinctively supports Israel in general can simultaneously oppose the genocide. It’s misguided, but it’s the case of many voters.

                  In contrast, a PRESIDENT who sometimes says “hey, please cool it, guys!” but also IS AN ACTIVE PARTICIPANT IN THE GENOCIDE WHO HAS VOWED NOT TO STOP can not in any way be said to be against the genocide that he’s taking part in.

                    Just people who SUPPORT active participation in the genocide by sending aid and are determined not to stop regardless of the ongoing genocide. So literally the only difference is voting for this policy vs. carrying it out. Cool.

                    Let me put it this way - these people you’re talking about, in the same position as Joe Biden, if they were suddenly appointed speaker and then Harris and Biden both resigned - what exactly would the difference considering their positions as stated by you to Biden’s current approach?

                    If you can’t understand that, then I can’t help you.

                    Wait, wait, let me take a crack at it “They’re still more moral than Biden because they aren’t participating in the genocide YET, they just support the continuation of supporting the genocide as it is currently and would follow the exact same policy if they were given the power to decide our next course of action”, as if that was a distinction with a difference in the context of a discussion of what people would vote for.

      In what universe isn’t disapproval of Israels actions opposition to genocide?? That’s literally what they’re doing that people disapprove of!

      At most, people want to continue aid to Israel in SPITE of disapproving of the genocide.

      Some people still incorrectly think that Israel isn’t inherently a genocidal apartheid state, so they want to support them in general, but want the genocide to stop.

        Okay, let me remind you of what started this little conversation. The other guy saying

        So you wanna explain how

          Yes. Most people want to vote for the outcomes that they prefer and most people want the genocide to end. Ergo most people would vote for an end to the genocide if given the opportunity.

          In the minds of these people aiding Israel will either stop the genocide or not necessarily have an effect on it. They’re wrong, but still against the genocide.

          It’s simple logic that REALLY shouldn’t be so hard for you to understand.

            So under that logic, Biden, who has expressed opposition to the ongoing operations but continued funding it, is also anti-genocide in the same vein that these voters are.

            You’ll have to forgive me for not finding that a very ‘anti-genocide’ or ‘changing what we’re currently doing’ stance.

              Biden, who has expressed opposition

              Wagging his finger once in a while when an especially horrific atrocity becomes public does nothing when he’s simultaneously sending them the weapons used to commit the atrocities and saying that he’ll be on their side no matter what.

              the ongoing operations

              Holy minimizing language, Batman! Committing genocide and other crimes against humanity on a daily basis is not your standard “operations”. Implying as much makes you sound like you’re in favor of it or at the very least don’t think it’s anywhere near as bad as it is.

              [Biden] is also anti-genocide

              Nope. He’s literally an active participant in the genocide who has vowed not to stop.

              You’ll have to forgive me for not finding that a very ‘anti-genocide’ or ‘changing what we’re currently doing’ stance.

              Sure, I’ll forgive you for being as dense as a neutron star if you stop demonstrating over and over that you’re suffering from a very severe case of the Dunning Kruger effect.
