    It’s crazy that Biden can’t wave his magic wand and stop the genocide but that same magic wand will supply weapons, military gear and money to commit the genocide and block the un from taking action against it just fine.

    What do you think is gonna happen if trump loses?

      Yeah sure buddy. Biden is single handedly providing weapons and money. Do you have any idea how our congress works?

      Fundamentally, things will get worse if Trump wins. Including how we are handling Israel. You don’t seem to understand that.

        Weird. I seem to remember a widely reported story that the Biden administration authorized delivery of 2 ton bombs to israel as recently as march 29th.

        Now I may be just a simple country poster, but the administration authorizing delivery would imply the ability of that same administration to revoke its authorization with the result being impact on the delivery.

        But what do I know? I could be fundamentally mistaken and the democrat president doesn’t have the power to direct Americas military might all over the world at all.

        Really makes the case for himself then when his hands are conveniently tied by process every time there’s something to stand up for.

        Israel doesn’t seem to think trump would be better for them. There was an article just the other day where a few Israeli reporters interviewed him and were shocked that his line was “wrap it up”. They described him as having flanked Biden on the left.

        Not that it matters, I’m not voting for either of em. I won’t vote for genocide.

          Yeah, republicans want them to just nuke Palestine and get it over with. That’s a better option to you?

          I’m not voting for either of em

          Then don’t vote. You don’t sound like the type that comprehends the full scope of what is at stake anyway.

          This conversation is over. There isn’t a way to convince someone with their nose this far in the air. You go on and think yourself better than the situation. The rest of us will continue living in reality while you use your power to enable an actual fascist.

          Have fun with that.

            I’m going to vote. For the party for socialism and liberation.

            It’s astounding to be told Ive got my nose in the air because I won’t support a genocide. I must be one of those hifalutin’ morally superior ivory tower elites that thinks it’s wrong to starve children and bulldoze corpses.

              Starving children and bulldozed corpses are going to happen in Palestine even if your choice of president makes it to office. Short of putting our own troops there, Israel isn’t going to stop.

              But given the fact that you’re voting independent, you’re complicit in making things worse in countless other ways.

              Yes, by voting on your morals and ignoring the context, you have your nose in the air. What your actions are showing is that you don’t care for the very real consequences, you care about feeling better than the people you view as “voting for genocide”

              That mindset is elitist and extremely disconnected from reality.

              Justify it however you want. You are still relinquishing your vote for a message that doesn’t serve a purpose except to selfishly bestow perceived moral superiority upon yourself.

              Congrats on that.

                lol the mental gymnastics you have to do to convince yourself that it’s okay and actually right and best to vote for a senile war criminal aren’t going to work on me.

                I’m not responsible for Joe Biden sending weapons to the people who triple tap aid worker convoys, or trump assassinating generals, or Obama blasting weddings or bush turning fallujha into a charnel house.

                I didn’t vote for that. I didn’t have any seat at the table where those decisions were made. I wasn’t even asked to look the other way when afghan warlords molested children or Clinton’s assassination squad raped ghaddafi to death with a knife. I bear no responsibility for those actions because I had no part in their commission.

                If I cannot be held responsible for the unforgivable, reprehensible actions of a string of government administrations I know my own voting record on, how can anyone call me responsible for an imagined future and its variable or constant horrors which like those of the past, lie so far beyond my influence they might as well exist in a different galaxy?

                No, this machine exists to transform human suffering into the demonic wine those at its helm were raised on and when given some minuscule chance to influence it I will not lend my strength to direct its path of mutilation hither or thither, but to destroy its machinery even in the smallest way possible.

                Death to America.

                  Death to America

                  There it is. Several paragraphs of bloviation, demonstrating that all you care about is your precious morals, followed by the ultimate declaration that you have no intention of actually making things better.

                  Your vote is for the degradation of the system, while you sit in your arm chair and praise the imaginary dismantling of government based solely on your moral superiority.

                  We see you. Thanks again for justifying your pointlessness, and again reaffirming that there is no reasoning with you. The rest of us have a reality to tend to.

                  Good luck with whatever your deal is.

                    aww surely a fellow southerner can take a little joy in prose. you don’t want your days do turn into a bland series of walkin’ heah, do you?

                    things would be measurably better in the world without the great satan, wouldn’t you say?

                    who’s we? i’m glad you recognize that you can’t change my mind. part of that last post was to hopefully make it clear that all the liberal triple backflips of guilt and self aggrandizement wouldn’t sway me.
