   @Moonslime @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews “you are potentially causing more harm than good with your ‘unapologetic anti-genocide’ ridiculousnes”

   Do you even hear yourself?

   For shame.

     @Osteopenia_Powers @FelisCatus @Moonslime @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews No one is telling you they’re the same. People are telling your presidential candidate to stop arming a fucking genocide.

     Well, here's the thing. Both Nixon and Johnson/Humphrey promised to end the war. Nixon, being the POS that he was, secretly torpedoed the Democratic plan. Then he went on with the war for 4 more years, escalated troops and bombing, and destroyed a few bonus countries.
     So, NO!
     I blame Nixon and those who failed to distinguish between him and Humphrey.

     So there were two paths. The world got the more bellicose path.
     There are two paths today. Don't tell me they're the same.

     In 1968, frustrated opponents of the Vietnam War allowed (compulsive liar, demagogue, and far-right troll) Richard Nixon to defeat Vice President Hubert Humphrey for US President.
     Nixon not only stepped up the genocide, he added another in Cambodia, and tacked on some coups in Latin America.
     Beware of false equivalencies.

     @Osteopenia_Powers @aral @Moonslime @WrenArcher @kamalaharrisforpresidentnews well don't blame it on "frustrated opponents of the Vietnam war". Blame it on the Democratic party for engaging in the Vietnam war in the place, and blame it on Nixon for being a compulsive liar and a far right troll.
