Damn. We need a decentralized archive and encyclopedia badly.

I've been trying to crack this and it seems impossible. It's a black box. You can dismantle every policy by looking at it from a certain standpoint and trying to apply your subjective logic to it. But when Zionist Israel is on the table, all logic goes out the window.
We can take the presidents one by one:
Obama - change - doesn't change anything about relations and policies with Israel
Biden - staunch defender of Israel. Doesn't matter what they do, he condemns anything and everything bad, but Israel commits genocide and he doesn't even acknowledge it.
Harris - polls showed that she could have gained massive voter support, had she expressed anything in favour of Palestine and acknowledge genocide, but she decided to lose instead for some reason. Proof of what would win her the election wasn't enough. She could have lost the Zionist campaign funding and still come out ahead.
Trump - you'd assume he doesn't care about money because he already has it, doesn't care about power because he's literally the president of the most powerful nation. He's immune to prosecution, so Israel can't even have something as stupid on him as being a serial child rapist, he'd shrug it off. That stupid Gaza beach resort video. Still doesn't make sense from fiscal standpoint. He also breaks tradition and protocol on everything.
There could be better allies in the region, and there have been. But it has to be Israel for some reason, in its current apartheid and genocidal state. My only explanation would be that the Zionist government of Israel and the US government are one and the same on some level, somehow, somewhere.
Let's ask, for example, @ininewcrow@lemmy.ca about how he feels about things, instead of an agitator. He has a lot of stories to tell.
People calling for collective punishment of a whole nation are irrational. Even sanctions won't do shit.
The problem is reach. Whatever the EU does, thanks to Orbán and his cronies owning all terrestrial media and major online publications, the opposition gets drowned out in a sea of disinfo, controlling the rural population, which is 70% of the country. Antennae television and radio stations are still big there. Budapest ALWAYS votes against Fidesz.
EU needs to dust off Radio Free Europe, and also disperse leaflets in the countryside. Spend the EU money that Hungary would have gotten on such a campaign. Focus the campaign on the state of poverty, corruption, inflation, class division, infrastructure, education and health care collapse, instead of this sham parade of their "child protection act" that they want the population (and the EU) to focus on.
Sadly it is not.
