I'm sorry, but what the actual fuck?

Why does she need to say that?

And why is every democratic presidential nominee like this?

Hurwitz also claimed that Holocaust education was “confusing” young people into sympathizing with “weak, skinny Palestinians” instead of “powerful Israelis.”

What. The. Fuck.

[–] FishFace@piefed.social 62 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, it's so weird to sympathise with people who are being starved 🙄

"We accidentally taught them that genocide should never happen. What we should have taught them is that we're awesome and above them!"

Do you remember the movie were a team of corporate sponsored rich teenagers beat a team of orphans in a lacrosse championship? That was so uplifting and inspiring.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 10 points 6 hours ago

The Mighty Dicks?

Field is Screams?

Cool Gunnings?

Victim blaming those weak pathetic losers is always the feel good movie of the year. Everyone wants to see the underdog lose.

Hey Hillary, do you know what I’d like to hear from you?

Nothing. Absolutely fucking nothing. You fucking lost to the fascist the first time around and paved the way for his ascent to power. You are a HUGE fucking factor in how we got to where we are now.

[–] hamid@crazypeople.online 31 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (3 children)

She is a fascist herself who led the unilateral intervention on Libya that lead to the unnecessary deaths of 50k people in a civil war that didn't need to happen, architected the pivot to Asia which will lead to WW3, and used "promoted" LGBT rights internationally in a way that got LGBT people thrown under the bus world wide as a side effect of resisting American imperial power.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 21 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I've said it all through out her run in 2016.

Shes not a democrat.

Shes not a liberal.

Shes just a Republican in a blue coat.

Yeah, it couldn't be the UN-confirmed genocide, nor the IDF-sanctioned videos of complete devastation, nor the steady wash of articles from journalists with decades of experience confirming utterly inhumane practices around aid distribution, rules of engagement and civilian deaths. Couldn't be.

[–] GenderNeutralBro@lemmy.sdf.org 36 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

UN-confirmed

In case anyone misread that, they mean the United Nations (UN) confirmed it.

Yes, it's a genocide. Genocide is bad. It's not that fucking complicated.

[–] MajorasTerribleFate@lemmy.zip 15 points 5 hours ago

One of the instances where abbreviating with periods could have helped: U.N.-confirmed

Right, totally made up.

What an insane thing to say.

Edit: bottom of the screenshot showing how many have been killed since the “ceasefire.”

[–] Macchi_the_Slime@piefed.blahaj.zone 34 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

I think the "theory" is supposed to be that the stuff about it that makes Israel look bad is what's supposedly totally made up. Like "Oh those dozen videos of IDF soldiers playing a game to see who could snipe the most children in the genitals? That's not real. Those were Hamas fighters. If you dumb kids knew the whole story you would agree with us adults in the room that Israel is in the right here."

Still fucking psychotic, just a different flavor of psychotic.

[–] Nanook@lemmy.zip 83 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Sure Hillary, now let’s get you back to your room.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 59 points 9 hours ago

You lost to Donald Trump.

No no no; politicians in this country are used to being able to lie with impunity and have the backing of the state enforce their positions.

Why do you think there are suddenly 19 new/resurrected Internet bills that are like “the government needs the ability to monitor and record and totally ban every click and pixel of every American at all times of all devices without warrant or question FOR THE CHILDREN”

Yeah it’s because they realize they’re cooked.

Why do you think there is always suck outrage at “TikTok”? For all the reasons it sucks, they had far less control over TikTok than the other platforms, and it scared the shit out of them.

America has been using our labor and wealth to do genocide and imperialism since the fall of the Nazis (edit:’far longer at home but we weren’t such prolific exporters until then) and they have mostly kept the wool over our eyes, but their little project has gotten out of hand and now it’s too ridiculous to hide.

They would rather imprison us all than to fail, and it seems they’ll fucking try.

[–] pachrist@lemmy.world 51 points 3 hours ago

"It’s a lot of young Jewish Americans who don’t know the history and don’t understand."

Oh they understand. That's why they're so unhappy. But, this is exactly the take I expect from one of the most out-of-touch people on the planet.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 39 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Of course she did. She's a piece of shit. No part of me is surprised.

There's a reason you lost to Trump, hilary.

[–] SkunkWorkz@lemmy.world 35 points 9 hours ago* (last edited 9 hours ago) (2 children)

it was very difficult because they did not know history

Yea because the average Israeli knows so much about the founding of their country. Who are the people who have been fed biblical propaganda all their entire lives?

[–] chaogomu@lemmy.world 26 points 8 hours ago

I've found that the more you know of the actual history of Israel, the more fucked up it all seems.

This stupid, evil piece of shit. There are people all over the place trying to combat voter apathy and get them to the ballot to at least try to staunch the worst, and there she goes pouring more oil on the fires of defeatism.

[–] abbiistabbii@lemmy.blahaj.zone 32 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

OK, isn't this literally a conspiracy pushed by far right Israeli politicians who openly call for the genocide of the Palestinians?

Fuck Hillary Clinton. Was she ever “in touch” with the world, or has she always been this way?

I long for the day to see AIPAC dismantled. The tide will turn, eventually.

Did the money she sold herself for to say this dumb shit really change her life in any noticable way?

It would cost her zero dollars to shut the fuck up.
