    several hundred years ago we had the choice between electing a slaveowner that fucked his slaves vs a slaveowner that didn’t fuck his slaves. Now we get to pick between a genocidal warmonger bent on keeping us all in debt servitude that is pro trans rights vs a genocidal dictatorship that is against trans rights.

    Biden sucks ass, stop gaslighting us if you want us to vote for your shithead

      When did Biden support genocide?

      Failing to do enough to immediately prevent an entirely separate foreign government from conducting its own genocide does not count.

          Why would Israel have a hard time getting munitions from any other first-world country, especially when they have the excuse of getting attacked by terrorists?

              Withholding munitions from Israel doesn’t stop the genocide. I’m keeping that end goal in mind.

                Maybe we should stop sending weapons to Ukraine since they’re going to be able to buy them from someone else

                  Withdrawing support for either country doesn’t do anything good for us. It keeps friends with them, and both are fighting terrorists.

                  Israel, unlike Ukraine, happens to also be incurring civilian casualties - lots of them. By being the one they work with, we get to set terms of delivering aid and limited attack responses, things China or Russia likely wouldn’t care about. It works, to some small degree - they limited their attack response to Iran based on Biden’s threat.

                  You can disagree with the policy as being ineffective. But I’d say, first, propose an alternative - one that actually reduces death, not just wiped out hands of it. Second, stop labeling it “support” for the genocide. At worst, it’s a failure to convince other people to stop it.

                    It’s so funny how the US is capable of stopping Russia in its own backyard for 2 years, yet incapable of reigning in its own satellite after almost a year of them indiscriminately killing civilians

        If I was american I’d obviously be voting for Biden, but ignoring or denying that he’s supporting the genocide currently being undertaken by the Israeli government doesn’t make him look better.

        Of course, Trump would support it too, hence the obviously.
