If Trump was president, then the mainstream narrative would be that the genocide in Gaza was simply because of Trump and Bibi’s leadership.

The media didn’t care about Israel sniping people during the Great March of Return. When Trump bombed Syria, they bent over backwards to say that was the moment he really became President. It’s possible more liberals would care about the genocide if he was in office but the media would likely still back Israel bc that’s what the US natsec ghouls want.

Part of it is because the Korean war isn’t over, part of it is racism against a socialist project that refuses to submit to western imperialism, but there’s also a geopolitical interest bc having another widely accepted threat in region gives them more leverage against China since you could use weapons in South Korea against China fairly easily.

part of the joke is also the fact that reddit has generally been quicker banning leftist subs while doing nothing about obvious nazi ones until they’re forced to by PR.
