    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.

        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.

          This isn’t a single issue voter thing. This is condemning genocide and the people that enable it. It’s not at all like anti abortion, because an abortion isn’t murder while slaughtering living humans is. People that didn’t vote for Biden on the grounds of Palestine are idiots, and I know they exist, but that’s not what we’re debating. We’re debating the character of Joe Biden, genocide enabler.

          If you don’t think the genocide is a black and white issue, you’re a fucking psycho. If you think that the genocide in Palestine is justified, you maybe had an argument for the first couple of days following the Hamas attack, but the moment it publicly went from trying to get back hostages to carpet bombing hospitals, shooting children, and blocking side to create a famine, you have nothing. That is black and white.

            It’s thinking like that that makes wedge issues so effective.

            I don’t think the genocide is justified but I think Biden was handling it much better then Trump currently is.

              I agree with you, Biden did handle it better, albeit marginally, but what he did (or didn’t) do, still makes him a shit person, just less shitty than the alternative. That’s why I voted for Harris and would have voted for him.
