    Even if he does this and turns the US into a utopia, which he won’t, he deserves to rot in hell for facilitating a genocide. The people who support this are caricatures of sakai’s book but at least the people in those books got something out of betraying the global working class.

      Facilitating the current genocide is sadly a small part of his CV. The damage he has done goes back to even before the time when he opposed bussing on segregationist grounds. I am sure you can find his fingerprints on every American atrocity since then. Though the Israeli crimes taking place under his watch as the president does make his role more pronounced.

        Yep, this is what I have been thinking as well. It’s not that netanyahu is putting Biden in a tough place or manipulating him or some other bullshit people come up with to promote the idea of american innocence. Perhaps enjoying might be too strong a term, but Biden feels like he is putting the “darkies” in their place. In his head there is a racially hierarchy, and a lot of liberals agree that the Palestinians upended that in October. This is therefore “punishment”. Also he fought to get the Iraq war. He loves imprisoning and murdering brown and black people.
