See the last part of the second paragraph for that. Victims of the empire paradoxically tend to want to immigrate to the empire believing they'll be better off there than in the country that empire targeted.

Hamas isn't a terrorist organization, they have a mandate from the people and were formed directly in response to the genocide of said people. They stop existing when the genocide is over.

Most "third world" or "developing" countries aren't that bad, and there are places in the US far worse than the median developing country.

Also most people in most places do not want to go to the US, even to visit much less immigrate. It's generally either the worst of a particular society or those specifically harmed by the US previously and feel their chances are better off with the abuser instead of in the abused country. It's not a wanted destination.

You can't vote against fascist genocidiers.

You can't even remove them via judicial means, as netanyahu has shown.

Oh thank God that's not an ear canal with a worm in it.

Usually the exception. For every one of them that lasts till 90 there's a dozen more dead by 70 via lung cancer, heart disease, or other truly horrifically painful way to die.

It's reddit. As in reddit right now reddit. Just without the ads.

Also the entire point of federated networks is decentralization, if any one instance is too big, it risks snowballing into the only populated instance.

Trump et al aren't a threat to the oligarchy or capital. Actual people rising up and doing violence against their owners is a threat to the oligarchy and capital.

It's how you know (besides dems post loss behavior) that Trump isn't anything different and nothing will massively change.

Sure. See the bill introduced by the Biden administration for exact details on that. Trump aligned Republicans stopped it from getting passed, as it would have removed he entirety of Trump's immigration platform.
