"Stop Doing Genocide" Is The Most Reasonable Political Demand Ever by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!

Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):

"Stop doing genocide" is the single most reasonable political demand anyone could possibly make. It is so reasonable it is insane it even needs to be made. You do not get to cry if people do not support your candidate because they did not meet that ridiculously reasonable demand.

When Palestinians say they do not feel safe they mean they are afraid of being killed by 2000-pound bombs. When Zionists say they do not feel safe they mean they are afraid of experiencing the psychological discomfort of encountering protests against a genocide that they support.

"Stop doing genocide" is the single most reasonable political demand anyone could possibly make. It is so reasonable it is insane it even needs to be made. You do not get to cry if people do not support your candidate because they did not meet that ridiculously reasonable demand.

It is maddening how liberals are acting like those who want an arms embargo against a regime that is presently committing genocide are making some kind of outlandish demand. It was freakish enough in 2016 and 2020 when they did this to progressives who wanted basic things like universal healthcare that everyone has in normal countries, but now they are actually taking the same "well you have got to be reasonable with your demands" tone over people who want an end to GENOCIDE.

If you tell people it is unreasonable to demand an end to a genocide that is only possible because of your government, you are telling them they need to tear down the entire system which gave rise to this situation. You are telling them they have no other choice but to radicalize against everything you stand for. That is not people like me who are telling them this - it is you.

I have written thousands of essays and millions of words trying to wake people up to the tyranny of the United States-centralized empire we live under, but I have never written anything more effective at radicalizing people against imperial status quo politics than the supposedly "left-wing" political party of the worlds most powerful government telling people it is unreasonable to demand that it stop committing genocide.

There is an absolutely ghoulish poster supporting genocide monster Kamala Harris going around; it is covered in drawings of flowers and features the words "VOTE JOY" written in 1960s hippie font. Everything about the push to elect Harris is joy, joy, joy joy joy. That is their whole entire message.

We need a word that is stronger than "dystopian" for this. Democrats finally learn that they need energy and enthusiasm in order to win elections, so they start squealing about "joy" and "fun" and making memes and flower power posters.. but they do it during an active genocide that is being perpetrated by the same administration they are feigning all this "joy" about.

So now they are all running around laughing and grinning and dancing as hard as they can, going online and having a great time making fun of how weird and stupid Republicans are, all party party party party - while kids are being ripped to shreds in daily massacres committed by a regime which has recently begun receiving a massive increase in United States weapons from the Biden administration. Haaretz reports that August has been the second-busiest month for weapons shipments from the United States to Israels Nevatim Airbase, second only to October 2023.

I mean, seriously, what the f-ck kind of crazed civilization does something like this?

What a demented, maniacal way to behave.

These freaks are dancing on the graves of mutilated children. They are laughing in the face of screaming parents clutching tiny bloody body parts to their chests in the most anguish any human being can possibly experience.

Lunatics. Bunch of deranged f-cking lunatics.

Donald Trump is not evil because he is another Hitler, he is evil because he is another Obama. So much emphasis gets placed on how different Trump is from other United States presidents, when all the evidence of his actual presidency showed the most evil thing about him is how similar he is to them.

And both sides do this. Both Trumps supporters and detractors frame him as some radical deviation from the norm, with his supporters not recognizing how fully aligned with the establishment swamp he is, and his detractors not realizing how depraved the norm actually is.

Republicans believe Donald Trump is going to End The Wars and Fight The Deep State, despite the fact that he did none of this while president.

Democrats believe Donald Trump is going to turn the United States into a Nazi dictatorship, despite the fact that he governed as the same kind of evil as all other United States presidents.

The United States is the single most tyrannical and murderous government on earth, by an extremely massive margin.

Donald Trump is evil because he spent his administration going along with all that tyranny and murderousness just like those who came before him and after him, not because of who he is as an individual.

If you think Donald Trump is some freakish aberration in an otherwise acceptable status quo, it is because you do not appreciate how horrific the status quo is.

Whichever side loses the United States election will claim it was "rigged", either by Russia or the Deep State or someone else.

Of course it was rigged; the only two viable presidential candidates are both backed by billionaire oligarchs and warmongering swamp monsters.

It was rigged right out in the open from the very beginning by the rich and powerful for the benefit of the rich and powerful, both with campaign funding and with the billionaire media who normalize and manufacture consent for the fake two-party scam. But neither side will talk about that very real election rigging.

So yeah, there is this tiny country in the middle east that exists in a continuous state of extreme violence and it constantly murders children and tortures and oppresses people, but we absolutely HAVE to make sure it continues to exist for reasons nobody can coherently explain.

Israel is not responsible for the existence of western warmongering, western warmongering is responsible for the existence of Israel.

If there was not an Israel they would just invent another excuse to sow violence and division in the middle east. Biden himself has acknowledged this, saying "Were there not an Israel the United States would have to invent an Israel to protect her interests in the region."

The only leftist "harm reduction" argument for supporting Democrats that I can come anywhere close to respecting is the kind that says "I hate Kamala Harris, I hate Democrats, they are all pure evil and must go to the gulag come revolution, but I support voting for them anyway for the same reason somebody in an abusive relationship gives the abuser what they want in order to survive long enough to escape another day."

If you unequivocally denounce Democrats and dedicate yourself to showing everyone how evil they are and how they work hand in glove with the Republicans to promote murder, theft and tyranny, then I can somewhat respect it if you say "But I think we should vote for them anyway because keeping the Republicans out of office for another term might slow down the murder, theft and tyranny a tiny bit" - even though I personally believe the Obama and Biden administrations have conclusively disproven this claim.

If you do anything other than this, if you shy away from talking about the reality of who Democrats are and what they do in any way because you want to make sure people are not too disgusted by them to vote for them, then you are just lying, and you are manipulating people.

You are just as depraved as the Democrats, who are just as depraved as the Republicans.

You have to be absolutely clear that the Democrats are the enemy and you endorse voting for them only because you think it is better to have a slightly slower, weaker enemy as often as possible, and your actions need to follow in alignment with this position. Otherwise you are just another bootlicking manipulator.

If your straightforward position is that Democrats are no less a part of the abusive power structure than Republicans and you are just doing what you can to help improve your odds of surviving an abusive situation, then I have too much experience with abusive relationships to criticize you for that. But you have got to be real about what you are doing. You have got to be truthful, and your actions must be grounded in the same truth as your words.

Trump and Harris are 99% identical in terms of the real policies they will promote. Trump supporters and Harris supporters hate each other because of that 1% difference; I hate them both because of that other 99%!!
