Too late, you are a war criminal just like Genocide Joe
Man admits complicity in war crimes.
Oh, now you’re saying something. That’s fucking rich.
Oh, he was saying things then too. He was one of the main spokespeople defending the genocide.
Wow thank you for speaking up when you hold no power anymore with checks clock 2 years late
Matthew Miller also said if he was “outside of government” he would have preferred a “better candidate” for the 2024 presidential election than Mr Biden.
If it helps, you see, he was “in government” at the time so he had no choice but to be a shit eating sycophant who told the president whatever he thought he wanted to hear. Had he been outside government, and free from the shackles of his own cowardice, he would have preferred a better candidate. A patriot if ever I saw one.
Legit heroes resigned. This coward should be put in stocks and subsequently run out of public life.
America: home of the cowards.
Everyone covering for Biden enabled the return of trump. Brokenass country
Biden was the best president since Jimmy Carter and with Harris as the VP he’d still be doing a better job than what we have now.
Harris and Walz would be amazing but the voters decided Trump is the better choice.
Best President since Jimmy Carter is a low, low bar. We forget that Carter was a neo-liberal who threw labor under the bus. Because the Presidents since have been so right-wing, he looks like a leftist in the rear view. And throwing the working classes under the bus is one of the major reasons we’re here now.
His administration was great; he was not. He has been mentally inept for years, funded what was (and still is) a genocide, and refused to keep his one term promise. Biden even has had the gall to say he would have done better than Kamala after every public appearance where he shit the bed. Biden was and is a piece of shit and it is because of him we are dealing with trump again. He did have competent people in his administration doing good work(miss you Lina Khan). Harris & Walz never had an opportunity because Biden
He took the shitty situation that the country and world was in and turned it around.
He was not and he is not a piece of shit and Trump getting back in is squarely on the shoulders of the people who voted Trump in or decided not to vote.
The world and the country would be in a better place right now almost everywhere if he won again.
Lemme splain:
He expanded the IRS with, what, 84,000 agents?..under the guise of going after all the crooked billionaires. Everyone cheered!!! Then he set them against anyone who deposited $600.
The IRS immediately started harassing me for money that I absolutely DO NOT FUCKING OWE because that goddamn asshole told everyone to go out and justify their paycheck.
He didnt change any of the tax loopholes for billionaires. He attacked the working class instead.
He has ALWAYS been a right wing conservative, and he’s a fucking demented asshole who should NEVER have been allowed near any nomination stage.
And he didnt win the nom in 2020. He was second to last ahead of Bloomberg. That shit was rigged because “its his turn! Remember obama??!!”
Then he REFUSED to defend the country from criminals and terrorists.
FUCK
JOE
BIDEN
His admin got a lot of good shit done and I think history will show it as one of the best presidencies in the past 30+ years, but Biden was and is a PoS for being complacent with genocide. I voted for the same complacent Harris and would have done the same for Biden because Trump was and is worse, but Trump being king of the shit pile doesn’t absolve Biden’s shittiness.
Voters and non voters are 100% to blame for Trump being POTUS, but that and Biden’s admins accomplishments have no bearing on the quality of person that Biden is and was.
Biden continued the same policies every president had before him on Israel.
Genocide has become the left’s thought and conversation ending cliché.
Every president prior to Biden wasn’t facing a full genocide in Palestine. I’m not saying it was sunshine and rainbows before, but it was full invasion genocide during Biden’s tenure. The situation was very different, way worse, and while things should have been different for every president before Biden, he should have been better. He wasn’t, and that’s why he’s a POS.
Also, the actions of other presidents has no bearing on Biden as a person. They were all independently also trash for many of their policies. They aren’t mutually exclusive.
Why are you so hard on downplaying genocide? It should be a main topic in every conversation about US politics, because it’s heinous. Like I’ve said, I voted for the lesser of two evils in the last two elections, I would have voted for Biden if it were him, but it doesn’t excuse his actions.
Why are you so hard on downplaying genocide? It should be a main topic in every conversation about US politics, because it’s heinous.
This is the updated version of ‘are you still beating your wife?’
This is the exact same as the anti-abortion activists screeching about the wholesale murder of babies.
I wish the world was as black and white as you desperately want it to be but if you scratch the surface you realize that it’s very complicated and nuanced and messy.
Anyone could turn around from what trump did in his 1st term. Yes, the world would be better if he won, but that’s the irony. Biden’s ego delivered another trump victory. It sucks but that’s what happened. If he can’t deliver a clear message, he is not the person that’s going to defeat a lifelong con man. Blaming voters doesn’t win elections and isn’t a path forward. Biden was and is shit for his role in the Gaza genocide alone
Biden was and is shit for his role in the Gaza genocide alone.
And now things are worse there too.
Being a single issue voter on the Gaza topic just makes the world a worse place.
The question you’re trying to dodge was “is Biden a piece of shit for enabling a genocide” not “is Trump worse”.
Usually if you agree with 80% of what someone does you call them an ally.
With some on the left if you don’t agree with 99.9% of what they do then they’re an enemy and it makes them useless as a political bloc.
No matter how tough the single issue is you’ve got to look at the full picture and make a choice from there which I have.
Biden is not a piece of shit and Trump is making the situation worse and the fault lays on people who voted for Trump or chose to stay home.
When the single issue is a genocide that the USA is fully complicit with it is well worth it .
Not when there were two options on the election. One of two people were going to win and a performative vote for neither was as good as a vote for Trump. I agree that Biden was not a good person and his complacency in genocide is atrocious, but he would have been better now than Trump is.
This feels like talking to anti-abortionist.
‘When the issue is killing babies there’s nothing to talk about.’
None of that was a sales pitch
It’s like saying that H. H. Holmes has without doubt broken some laws.
Thanks, matt.
These people must live under rocks…
Which ones? Cause Miller seemed to laugh with glee during press conferences
None, I was taking the piss. As I say, I’m assuming that they were benefitting somehow and no longer are. Point is they didn’t wake up yesterday morning and go “you know what, that Gaza situation is a bit fucked”.
Or the more likely case, they know exactly what they are doing and are complicit.
Exactly. I’m assuming they were benefitting somehow, and no longer are…or something along those lines.
r/TitleGore
That headline’s lack of punctuation made me think Mr. M. M. Israel committed war crimes in Gaza. I went to the article to see what it is he could have done there as a former Biden official that would qualify.
Covering war crimes make yoy a war criminal since you are directly complicit
Notice the distraction, pulling you away from a current harm and looking instead at an opportunity to blame for a past mistake.
Let’s reopen this criticism of these past mistakes later ok?
Mistake : an action, decision, or judgment that produces an unwanted or unintentional result
Biden and he knew very well what they was doing. That’s not a mistake
I am sure that you agree that the statue of limitation do not apply to someone who committed a crime or assisted the killer. So why do you oppose condemning Biden and Miller and not forget what they did?
Let’s reopen this criticism of these past mistakes later ok? Don’t you mean never when did any American president been brought to justice for war crimes ?
Are people dying right now? That’s an immediate need, if so.
Are they in power right now? Campaigning for reelection right now? That’s an immediate need if so.
Please don’t demonize “let’s focus on immediate needs” as I feel that’s a reasonable thing to want.
Sure war criminals can be free with no accountability when they no longer in power. What a terrible logic. We will demonize them as much as we want, you can’t stop that.
Maybe if your presidents was held accountable like Bush , trump wouldn’t feel free to do all the terrible thing he does.
Will you forgive trump and forget his crimes when he is out?
Probably because it does nothing now while children are burning to death.
It should definitely not be forgotten… but it also shouldn’t be our focus. Because if you focus on the inconsequential you get the situation we’ve constantly been in the last… well probably at least as long as the US has been a thing.
If this were more like reconstruction after the US civil war, where the damage has been done and we’re trying to recover from it, it might be the same. Where forgiving past mistakes causes massive consequences that are still being felt. We’re not at that point yet, if we ever manage to get there.
We can focus on more than one thing . There is no mistake here, a mistake is an unintentional action that have bad consequences. the USA been deliberately ignoring and helping Israel terrorism, occupation and oppression of Palestinians for decades
Sure, but what we are going to do about it now matters far more than what we’re going to do with the people no longer in a position to do anything about it.
if was criminals don’t face justice, at least it they should be remembered for what they did so history don’t forget
There’s sure gonna be a lot of them if we spend all our time wringing our hands about what they’ve done in the past instead of preventing it in the future!
You can’t prevent anything from happening in the future if you refuse to keep wrong doing in the past relevant
Who is “Matthew Miller Israel” and what were his alleged crimes?
State Department Spokesman. Not a policy maker, but he was definitely a significant person involved in providing cover for Israel’s atrocities.
Oh, definitely. But the title of the article makes it sound like a person named “Matthew Miller Israel” was personally in gaza committing war crimes. A modicum of punctuation could have solved it.
I used the autofill function of lemmy without verifiying. That explain the lack of ponctuation.
As for his war crimes, is covering israelis war crimes which make him complicit aka also a war criminal under international law
It’s not your fault. The original article’s title uses very awkward and unfortunate grammar.
