"I didn't like getting a paper cut, never doing that again, I'd rather get stabbed with a rusty sword next time."
First they came for the Palestinians in Gaza And I did not speak out Because I was not a Palestinian in Gaza
Is that clear enough yet? I've watched Americans dismiss the slaughter of our children as a papercut and describe the infinitely preferable (compared to your children being literally shredded to pieced daily, or a paper cut in your words) future of Americans who refused to vote for a viable candidate as being stabbed with a rusty sword.
And you expect us to be there for you when you're the last one left? Fuck you. You described an active Genocide as a paper cut, and the self-destruction of the American empire and the upcoming recession due partly because they got rid of cheap exploitative labor as a stab with a rusty sword. You lack historic perspective, empathy, morals, and certainly class consciousness.
The Democrats are not your friends, do you forget that Debbie W Schultz rejected our demand for Bernie and have us Hillary? That's how we got Trump the first time, and what did the Democrats do? They blamed us, the voters. You forget Hillary's contempt for Bernie voters and how she described him as an infiltrator?
America ruining itself is going to save millions of lives and give many counties the chance to recover from exploitation. You're just being a selfish fuck who's upset now that consequences are home.
