    The genocide is flourishing right now, and the worst way to persuade a politician is to promise you’ll vote for them no matter what.

      The worst way to stop a genocide is allowing a Muslim ban fan to ramp up the executions and also assist Russia against Ukraine.

          I didn’t realize America was sending spec ops, bombs, and our taxes to Russia.

        Lesser-evil voting has led you to support an imagined “kinder, gentler genocide”. Seems a bad strategy.

          Whatever helps you convince yourself you’re right in allowing Donald to genocide harder and in more countries.

            When you were a kid learning about Nazis, did you ever imagine yourself begging people to vote for a guy actively carrying out a genocide?

              Once again I ask these tankies, what is your suggestion come November? If the answer isn’t vote for Biden, you’re helping Trump. When you come back to reality, that’s just the simple truth.

                Vote in solidarity with the victims of the genocide. Listen to what they’re saying, listen to pro-Palestinian groups.

              When your middle school class gets to their unit on Nazis, perhaps you’ll discover why it is bad to assist the openly racist authoritarian demagogue who did a putsch, screeches “fake news” at everything, and wants SCOTUS to hand him a long knife.

                Oh no, they’ll just make a nice little Molotov-Ribbentrop pact with the openly racist authoritarian demagogue, while still claiming to be the only people TRULY opposed to fascism.

                Are any major pro-Palestine groups encouraging us to vote for Biden? Can you point to any policy or action that lessened the genocide? What “line in the sand” has Biden drawn? What punishments has he meted out on Israel?

                It’s a fact that he’s a lifelong, hardcore Zionist. The only sane conclusion is that the genocide is fully supported by the president.

                  You wish to pretend that Donald isn’t an openly racist authoritarian demagogue, didn’t do an insurrection, and isn’t asking courts to consider that he should murder his political opponents.

                  I also don’t know why assisting Bibi’s preferred candidate will help stop anything either.

                  You really just have the one track to play. Almost as if you are deliberately disingenuous. Ah, yes, .ml. An accelerationist who wants Russia and China to gain ground.

                    There are no major pro-Palestinian groups asking Americans to vote for Biden. They’ve asked us to protest. They’ve asked us to write to our congresspeople. They’ve asked us to boycott.

                    They’re the targets of these American-made bombs, so I’ve done what they’ve asked. Have you?
