Don't forget the reason the U.S. is supporting Israel's genocide of Palestine - hell, 90% of the reason they ever get involved into something in the Middle East is for ulterior purposes regarding oil.
That and the Ben Gurion Canal project, which you can learn more about:

God I know everyone is celebrating right now because trump looks like an idiot and Harris easily wiped the floor with him but. I can't help but feel defeated by the things she was actually saying. Not even a platitude about climate action being important. No mentions of the recent shootings, just affirming her own personal gun ownership. Continued insistence on the US having "the most lethal military in the world" and reaffirming Israel's "right to defend itself."
Like. This debate was Establishment Republican vs. Delusional Republican. I know what's at stake right now, and I don't think we have anywhere near enough time to mobilize behind any kind of third party solution, so I will be voting for her when the time comes, but it just feels so bleak.

How on earth is harris v trump a tight race??? How do ppl look at donald trump having SEEN the way he acted in his presidential term, seen his LENGTHY criminal record, seen the fact that NOBODY else in his party aside from some loose hanging cultists wants to associate with him, seen the way he literally incited riots after losing an election which resulted in at least seven deaths, seen his total lack of coherent policy plan, and think yeah well but Kamala is a cop. Which isn’t even fucking true

For democrats (specifically the Biden campaign) to not lock down on expanding the Supreme Court at this point is such a failure not only in listening to the will of the people, but in showing basic c9ncern for the people of America being put through the thrasher for the sake of a power-hungry, morally bankrupt and unchecked judicial entity.
They're getting in the way of climate initiatives. They're taking rights away from women. They're making it fucking constitutional to ban homeless people off the streets. Wake the fuck up and stop hiding from doing the right thing because it scares you. Fuck.
and as an aside, vote blue no matter who. keep your "it doesn't matter we are fucked they're all the same level of bad" bullshit up your ass with your head where it belongs.

the way white liberals talk about Ruth Bader Ginsburg as if she had some sort of unique ability to decide cases correctly and was like the only person standing in the way of the US and utter chaos is so funny to me bc like a) Sotomayor and Jackson have better judicial records than her ?? and b) if you trained an AI by making it watch 250 hours of John Oliver I think it would make the correct decision as often or more than she did

Tbh I've been a little bit in the lookout since I noticed it but like when's the last time one of those blue no matter who VoTe dem liberals talked about like. Gerrymandering or bussing or even just ride sharing to polling places. For as much noise as they make about "if you're not voting for Biden you're voting for trump" they don't seem to actually give a fuck about the circumstances that let trump win the 2016 election. I haven't even heard a stink about the electoral college since 2016! How did "there is no civilization only individuals" thatcherites make it into the US like this /s
