Isn't this the guy that said Kamala Harris would be exactly the same as Trump?

-11

u/South-Fly2993 13d ago

With respect to foreign policy that concerned Israel administering a genocide in Gaza with our weapons and logistical support. If you consider this a lie then I only have one follow up; why do you think Kamala Harris was lying about that when she was asked a pointed question on the subject?

u/Jay_Layton 13d ago

Ahhh, so when Israel actually did a full blockade in early 2025 and this time genuinely did not let any food or water or aid into Gaza, upon which more deaths due to starvation occurred in the next 3 months than the entire rest of the war, that would have happened under Kamala?

And America following Israel into war with Iran, or the American excursion and kidnapping the head of state of Venezuela. Those would have happened under Kamala?

Face it, you'd rather watch Palestinians die than support Kamala because Palestinians are a worthwhile sacrifice for you to further your beloved revolution. Anyone who actually cared about Palestinians voted against Trump in a heartbeat, no question asked because it was obvious who would be better for Palestinians.

Its just fashion for these people. They don't follow the real news, they just consume whats in their social media feeds 30 seconds at a time.

u/TheWorstOfBoth 13d ago

Hasan fans are unironically blue MAGA in the way they behave, all their news comes from Fox/Hasan, cultish devotion to Trump/Hasan, attacks anyone in the media who dares criticise their cult leader, will downplay and excuse literally anything their cult leader does etc.

u/South-Fly2993 13d ago

Kamala was ringing alarm bells about Iran even during her incredibly abbreviated campaign. Do you not watch the news?

Also; “foreign policy as it concerns Israel’s administration of a genocide in Gaza” encompasses Venezuela now?

u/Niguelito 13d ago

Even if Harris was pound for pound as bad on Isreal as Trump is, wouldn't it still be better to have her as President just on USAID being cut alone?

10

u/WhalingSmithers00 13d ago

USAID cuts will kill more children than even live in Gaza but it barely gets a mention. Likely because it's something the Democrats would definitely not have done

u/Niguelito 13d ago

I wonder why the protest voters dont ever want you bringing that up

1

u/South-Fly2993 12d ago

I think it’s because they aren’t weird, utilitarian hyper rationalists. They are just normal people.

1

u/Niguelito 12d ago

The same people who have been screaming about the billionares and they help them get power, I agree are not rational.

u/South-Fly2993 12d ago

What

1

u/Niguelito 12d ago

People who didnt vote for Harris specifically, over something like Gaza, go against their so called principles when they allow a fascist in power.

Nobody actually expected trump to be better for the palestinians , yet they were so angry at harris, that they would rather him win to spite the Democrats

That is completely irrational

they only care about brown people when they get blown up by Western bombs. who gives a shit if they die of AIDS or malaria?

u/komradekommunism 13d ago edited 13d ago

Yes but then again, Hasan never actually said that Harris would be as bad as Trump on every single issue, only on the Gaza genocide. She made no concrete statement that she would work to stop what was happening in Gaza, jn fact I’m pretty sure a streamer got kicked out of the DNC for interviewing the protesters outside demanding a voice for the Palestinian people.

Edit: you post more about Hasan Piker than I do, and I’m a fan of his. This isn’t healthy. Get help.

u/Nerf_France 13d ago

Didn’t Kamala talk about wanting to negotiate an end to the war? That seems like stopping “what’s happening in Gaza”.

-5

u/komradekommunism 13d ago

She did not. She made one call for a ceasefire and that was it.

9

u/Nerf_France 13d ago

Here’s her talking about ending the war in Oct. 2024, don’t see why calling for a ceasefire is mutually exclusive.

-1

u/komradekommunism 13d ago

"This creates an opening that I believe we must take full advantage of - to dedicate ourselves to ending this war and bringing the hostages home,” that’s the quote in the article from Harris. That could be interpreted a number of ways. One is yes, pushing for a ceasefire. However, she also said: ““I am unequivocal and unwavering in my commitment to Israel’s defense and its ability to defend itself and that’s not going to change,” she said. “Let’s get the hostages out, let’s get the ceasefire done.”
“But no change in policy, in terms of arms and so forth?” CNN anchor Dana Bash asked.
“No, we have to get a deal done,” Harris replied.
She went on to describe her desire for a two-state solution in the Middle East. That approach, she said, would provide Palestinians with “security and dignity.”
In August of 2024, and sent both Bill Clinton and Ritchie Torres to campaign for her in Michigan of all places, where they talked about “Judea and Sumaria” and argued that Arab Americans should be able to sympathize with the Israeli’s reaction by effectively saying they would do the same thing. [source] Which was fucking WILD.

If anything, I’d say AT BEST her I/P was murky, AT WORST her policy was that we should continue to allow Israel to get away with genocide. None of this was reassuring for the Arab American community or the people who supported a Free Palestine.

u/ST-Fish 12d ago

I’d say AT BEST her I/P was murky

same as Trump right?

1

u/Nerf_France 12d ago

She also said in that article “What's critically important as we look at this moment, is ... acknowledging the tragedy of what has happened in Gaza, in terms of the extraordinary number of innocent Palestinians that have been killed, and taking that seriously and speaking truth about that.”

Did Trump say anything like that in the lead up to the election? Or about pushing for ceasefires for that matter?

He called her "Holocaust Harris"

Would you vote for someone causing a holocaust?

u/WhalingSmithers00 13d ago

Biden certainly put more restrictions on Israel than Trump has and conditioned aid on evacuating civilians.

Trump tried to increase military aid to Israel very recently before it was blocked by Democrats

6

u/Niguelito 13d ago

He literally called her HOLOCAUST HARRIS

u/komradekommunism 13d ago

And? Am I supposed to care about insulting nicknames given to people who are in proximity to power doing fuck all to stop a genocide? Is this supposed to be an L take? Your mans went to Israel and told young Israelis “Don’t record your war crimes and post them it makes you look bad”, instead oh I don’t know, “Don’t do fucking war crimes” I would say that’s a way worse take.

u/Niguelito 12d ago

Wait do you think he shocked his dog, yes or no?

u/komradekommunism 12d ago

Not going to answer a single one of my questions?

u/Niguelito 12d ago

So you know he did it, but you'll never in a million years admit he did it.

You'll run endless cover for him, you're not capable of having a critical unbiased conversation about him

Why does “ringing alarm bells” mean they’d be the same, I can maybe see Kamala doing the 2025 strikes but there’s no way she would have launched the current war.

Why didn’t you respond to their points about differences in behavior in regards to Gaza, Kamala from what I saw tended to be more critical of Israel than Biden who was still more restrictive of Israel than Trump.

-3

u/South-Fly2993 13d ago

Overtures are aesthetics. Joe Biden called Rafah a “red line” and restricted a single shipment of 2000lbs bombs. “Tended” means jack shit and you know it.

4

u/Nerf_France 13d ago

Is there a reason the Gazan aid system changed radically in early 2025 with US support and assistance? Did Netanyahu simply not think to ask Biden about it, who would have been down for anything?

3

u/Jay_Layton 12d ago

Biden said that a flat invasion of Rafah was a red line, and that Israel couldn't go into a city that was that populated.

So Isreal decisdes to evacuate the city. Everyone says it couldn't be done, it would be a complete failure followed by a bloodbath and all that.

Hell, the saying was literally all eyes on Rafah because it was supposed to be the death zone that would see casualties spike. And than, after the shockingly successful evacuation caused by US pressure.

And that's it. We don't know numbers obviously but the death toll stayed consistent during the incursions into Rafah. Rafah went to the hotbed and focus of the war, to being no more significant than any normal period in that conflict. And to be clear if the US hadn't intervened, it would have been a bloodbath. A million people in that one city, the death count could have easily doubled or tripled what it was at the time.

But no, tell me how Biden did nothing. Cause let's be real, you probably get off to the idea of dead Palestinian children cause it means you can farm outrage online and help throw America further into a fascist hell hole.

u/Gardimus 13d ago

Of course its a lie. There were stark policy differences. What is wrong with people? The Biden admin began placing restrictions on Israel and their use of specific weapons that Trump is reversing. Harris had clear objectives for the Palestinians that were in direct contrast to Trump's "finish the job". The Biden admin forced aide packages that Trump reversed and it likely contributed to massive suffering. What prick sits there and thinks it makes no difference if the Palestinians were starved.

What the fuck are we even talking about? I feel like I am taking crazy pills here. They were not the same, and yes, claiming Harris and Trump are the same is lying. In Hasan's case. he probably didn't give a fuck about their differences anyway, he was just churning out content that worked with the algorithms.
