We are constantly told that solutions to some of the greatest challenges facing poor and working class people in the U.S. do not exist. Meanwhile, billions taxpayer dollars are being used to fund the genocide of Palestinians.

That very money could have ended homelessness in the United States.

Money for our needs, not the U.S.-Israeli war machine!

 
 
 
 
 

The cost of the THAAD missile defense system the U.S. just sent to Israel to continue its genocidal war on the Middle East cost almost double the dollar amount FEMA paid out to victims of natural disasters last year.

MONEY FOR OUR NEEDS, NOT THE US-ISRAELI WAR MACHINE!

The only people calling themselves “free thinkers” for thinking that communism is bad, are the people in the west though.

The fact that Israel is the 51st state of the USA doesn’t mean that they cannot have politicians in their pocket for preferential treatment. They do have a high level of control in politics due to its lobbying and “donations” (bribes).

I am not denying that the USA has tons of geopolitical interest in Israel and “if it didn’t exist we would have to invent one” - Joe Biden. But saying that Israel holds no sway in USA politics is just disingenuous. Both countries affects each other politics, and Israel is the most beloved colonial project of the USA.

They said that they are not sure of the exact amount, but they estimate that he is a multi billionaire

Current estimates of Donald Trump's wealth puts the former President's net worth at around $4.5 billion.

However, Trump's net worth is a highly disputed and volatile figure. Estimates from around $2 billion to more than $ 6 billion to around $7.5 billion.

Nah, Israel is just the 51st state. It is part of the USA by this point. It just wants preferential treatment.

Both Democrats and Republicans literally get millions on campaign donations and lobbying from AIPAC, saying that pointing this out is antisemitism is pure manipulation and honestly Hasbara . Anti Zionism is not antisematism.

They are literally funding doing a genocide. Using police force to beat to a pulp and kill student protestors and banning media speaking against the genocide.

They are literally the ones funding the genocide and sending people to enlist in the IDF to keep doing the genocide and weapons for the genocide. This is literally the Democrats genocide, no matter how you spin it.

Man, you are so deluded in your blue MAGA disinformation that you think that people who are currently doing a genocide are better than a supposedly boogie man that will do a “worse genocide”. It was Trump too that denied the existence of a Palestinian state. Oh no it was literally Biden today who did that. Democrats are fascists doing ethnic cleansing!

Okay, I am so sorry that I didn't realize that we are doing light genocide. That makes it so much better now. /s

Are you seriously out of your mind!? Gaza has been reduced to a graveyard of children. Democrats have done this and they are literally fascists for doing this. Republicans literally won't make any difference. Your level of being a democrat fanboy is unreal.
