Ok I'm not voting for any fucking democrats unless they're explicitly denouncing the national party.
Seriously if Democrat leadership is also just yelling "why don't you go back to your country" at anybody that criticizes America just fucking let it all burn.
When the South has trouble with its Negroes when the Negroes refuse to remain in their “place” it blames “outside agitators” and “Northern interference.” When the nation has trouble with the Northern Negro, it blames the Kremlin.

I had been meaning to dig up this quote since Pelosi blamed Russia
Edit: Point of clarification, if you watch the video and listen closely with headphones, you can hear she is clearly saying “Go back to China where they are committing genocide… Go back to China where they are committing genocide”.
She's really trying to do the 'what about the Uyghurs?!?!' to defend ongoing genocide.
E:
If someone wants to use the same map meme at a Pelosi protest, there's a few versions I've made specifically about the hypocrisy of this stance. Or maybe just start spamming it at her socials?
She is more than welcome to file a case with the ICJ if she's distressed about the Uyghurs. One of these reporters speaking with the state department reps needs to ask that question directly. “Why haven't we filed an ICJ case on behalf of the Uyghurs?”
the american brainpan is incapable of opposing mass slaughter, any support for persecuted civilians is the result of outside interference by the dastardly orientals in [bad country]
The "funny" thing about this obviously fake narrative is that, even from a purely geopolitical perspective divorced from the ruling ideology of either countries, both Russia and China have everything to gain by the West and its compradors prolonging this atrocity since their positions have only been strengthened by it. I really doubt Putin's administration and, if we're being honest, the CPC will place the well-being of Palestinians above their own national interests.
Not only does this suck the oxygen from Ukraine and the Taiwan Strait (both in terms of international attention and how much the US and friends can afford to pump money and surplus military stockpiles into), it's also discredits their rival bloc to the rest of the world as undemocratic, imperialistic hypocrites far more than anything before, even the so-called GWOT. Better yet, resistance forces in the poorest parts of the world humiliating the strained military industrial complexes of Israel and its sponsors has further shattered the illusion of them being anything other than a paper-tiger riding a diminishing wave of post-cold war inertia. This isn't something you want if you're trying to exert power over the rest of the world and its markets with thinly-veiled threats.
If Pelosi and the other fossils running the show actually believed what they were saying (or took it seriously if they did), they'd urge a ceasefire to deny avenues to Russia and China to "agitate" Americans from the inside and weaken US power globally. But they don't, and other costs are easily outweighed by the cost of their West Asian settler-colonial project coming out of this genocidal "war" with little to show for it but broken egos, body-bags and the solidified status as a pariah state held up purely by brute strength.
The Democratic-led House voted to condemn President Donald Trump’s “racist comments” against four congresswomen of color, despite protestations by Trump’s Republican congressional allies and his own insistence he hasn’t “a racist bone in my body.”
Trump tweeted that four Democratic freshmen should “go back” to their home countries — though all are citizens and three were born in the U.S.A.
Turns out, he was accidentally correct about "whose governments are complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world"
I hope trump destroys this facade of a “democracy”
He already did for a lot of people. The only ones still buying this shit are mainly the Red MAGA hogs and the Blue MAGA libs. Nothing us going to break through to these people at this point.
Pelosi believing these protestors are funded by China when they're obviously not should be taken as a sign that she just assumes everyone is doing it because it's exactly what she's doing everywhere else... Thinking about that Taiwan visit.
