This election is going to be a choice between getting shit smeared on your face or getting shit injected into your veins- you hate both options to the core, but only one is survivable.
Unpopular take here on Lemmy, but when was the last time the USA didn’t support war on some country inhabited by people who aren’t white. I don’t see Israel as some kind of special exceptional case here.
Also obviously Trump wouldn’t stop supporting Israel. Or maybe he would only because he needs all those weapons to fight a civil war.
Yeah, that’s totally fair, and I haven’t given him a cent even though I’d normally have thrown some cash by now, and the thought of it, as an American jew no less, makes me a little sick. But before October I would have. But our government also tends to have a momentum that’s hard to redirect so fast.
Dude fucked the BBB, forced federal workers back into the office, blocked the rail strike and has Yellen and Powell in an outright war with American workers.
He’s a “solid leader” for people who are retired or about to retire.
No. Biden is like being made to eat your vegetables. They might not taste good but you have to do it.
Voting for Trump and Republicans is like eating shit for money. Everyone is going to be worse off, oh and only the people on top get paid for it. Everyone else is just screwed.
Maybe I wasn’t clear, as I was trying to follow the metaphor of Biden being the equivalent of “eating your vegetables”. Biden has been sending arms to Israel as it commits genocide, publicly locking arms with them no matter the attrocity of the day, and actively protecting them from consequences in the UN. So he’s not just some boring politician doing a good job even if he’s not inspiring. He’s a actively contributing to crimes against humanity. Supporting Biden, and by extension genocide in Gaza, just to avoid Trump is not like eating vegetables, which are not tasty but good for you.
And yet the people who chose getting shit smeared in our faces in the 2020 primaries have demonstrated zero self awareness or openness to behaving differently in the future.

Aside from this whole Israel/Genocide thing, Biden has been a pretty solid leader despite a completely dysfunctional congress.
“Aside from that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”

My vegetables usually don’t support, defend, and finance genocidal states.
How much food including fruits and vegetables like garlic or mushrooms do you suspect we import from China?
Not that much. The US is really good at producing food, and Mexico is right there for year round growing as well.
