Chicago Police and the FBI are investigating if saboteurs placed bugs in a breakfast buffet prepared for delegates at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday.

“Multiple unknown female offenders are alleged to have entered a building…and began placing unknown objects onto tables containing food,” the convention’s information center said in a statement. “The offenders are believed to have then left the area. One victim was treated and released on-scene. Along with CPD, FBI-Chicago is assisting in the investigation.”

    You are making this the ONLY issue in the world. I fucking hate the israeli government for what they are doing. Fuck israel. But you are willing to let everyone around you burn for this. Willing to let lgbt, people of color, students, poor people and the working class be oppressed and possibly murdered. Because trump WILL make sure of that.

      Sounds like what’s happening right fucking now under a Democrat presidency!

      Comic of Lucy and Charlie Brown where Charlie Brown is falling on his ass because Lucy tricked him into kicking a football and then pulling it away at the last second

      How many times do you have to try to kick Lucy’s football before you realize that she’s punking you?!?

      Voting for President merely ratifies decisions already made by capital. I’m not voting for your candidate, and I refuse to be guilted for decisions already made by capital.

      Because trump WILL make sure of that.

      Trump winning would be an indicator of the trajectory you have no control over as far as the ballot box is concerned.

      But you are willing to let everyone around you burn for this.

      No I am not. I want people to organize themselves against the system, not within it. The system itself is the problem. Having “”“good people”“” is insufficient to get even mediocre change. See self-described socialist AOC speedrunning ghoulification.

        your rhetoric only serves to further de legitimize your position. you’re basically a caricature of a useless tankie.

              The genocide is happening now, under Biden, who could end this in a day.

              I have more respect for the people with their ‘single issue voter’ defense of genocide. They at least aren’t living in a fantasy land that Trump is responsible for Biden’s actions.

      You apparently don’t understand the word intersectional.

      You also need to reread this:

      First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
           Because I was not a socialist.
      
      Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
           Because I was not a trade unionist.
      
      Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
           Because I was not a Jew.
      
      Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
      

      Genocide is something that is binary, and you are either against it or a fascist. There is no middle ground with genocide.

      The DNC has already started to indicate they will throw trans people under the bus next.
