Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

this is also a reminder that Americans are not demons who love to colonize, but people held in an imperial propaganda bubble, and when that bubble wavers many of them are shocked and appalled at the world the US has created outside its borders
should also add that the american media (both social and legacy) are working overtime to make the economy the official reason why people didn't vote so that they can pretend that the genocide didn't factor in.
Indeed, imagine these results if information was spread naturally based on public interest and not heavily skewed by those with the power to conduct public opinion.
get outta here w that commie shit .... (so i can have it all to myself) lol
Let's keep perspective tho, this poll is not describing the majority of Americans but a minority (29% of active dem voters) of a minority (voting Americans)
And if it was broken down along racial lines we'd see typical divisions
No data backs up the claim Americans oppose the genocide in any real numbers outside of certain demographics
please read things, it's not 29% of active Dem voters, it's 29% of people who voted Biden but NOT Harris
The difference between Biden and Harris vote count was 0.6%
so you're looking at 29% of some mystery number which is at least 0.6% of the Dem population because honkies don't like putting numbers in things
I'll do you one better, I did the math, they're talking about 1,800,000 people who didn't vote Harris because of Gaza
So 1% of the voting population (Kamala lost by 3.5%)
