“As the president of the United States, you have power to change the course of history, and the responsibility to save lives right now,” the staffers wrote.
Whataboutism.
the technique or practice of responding to an accusation or difficult question by … raising a different issue.
Who raised the issue of Trump or the Republican Party when I discussed Biden?
We live in a democracy with a two party system.
Do you still feel it is a democracy worth defending by approving genocide when the choice is a fascist-enabler and a fascist?
No Trump would be worse. He was the one who moved our embassy to Israel. He is the one who is going to destabilize the situation further. Half of the Democratic party wants a ceasefire. Republicans want unconditional support for Israel. Have you ever watched or read fox news? The difference between the parties becomes quite clear, very quickly.
Whataboutism. It’s obnoxious when it isn’t being used against your opponents, right?
You can’t guilt someone into enabling fascists. It doesn’t work. Think about all the people the Republicans are going to get killed. It’s not equivalent.
I haven’t supported any fascists. The Democratic Party, on the other hand, was the one who guilted you into enabling fascists. Netanyahu has gone mask-off fascist and the Democratic Party guilted you and others into voting for Biden who has been enabling Netanyahu for decades, and continues to do so now. How many people have to be murdered for you to stop supporting Biden? Do you feel any guilt or shame for voting to empower Biden who shipped weapons and sent money to Israel to bomb children and their families?
Who raised the issue of Trump or the Republican Party when I discussed Biden?
Multiple people did. It’s not whataboutism if the issues are linked. Which they are.

This statement is not based in reality. Trump is a fascist and fascist enabler. Biden is not.

It’s a two party system. Republicans win with low voter turn out. By not voting for Biden you are helping Trump. It’s just math. You can’t guilt people into supporting a fascist like Trump.
Trump is a fascist and fascist enabler. Biden is not.
You’re delusional if you are not even willing to admit to yourself you voted for a fascist enabler because you wanted to feel safer.

That’s a functional democracy worth defending at the cost of supporting genocide to you?

I mean, I do feel safer. You should too. I voted for Biden to stop the fascist take over. I didn’t fully realize how much of a danger it was until Jan 6th. But it’s become crystal clear to me since.

A democracy that is against genocide is better than a fascist dictatorship that actively pursues genocide at home and abroad. How is that even a question?
