This is the kind of comment that makes me love federated media more than ever. So glad reddit died so this could happen

One issue

No i disagree on a lot more than one issue. Covid, climate, surveillance, taxes, fracking, how to handle infrastructure, civil rights, war, funding for Nazis and a lot more. Palestine is just the dealbreaker.

Pretty telling that they think there’s just one teeeny tiny thing he’s wrong on (genocide)

What are you antisemite? Are you a trump supporter? How dare you not vote for a tiny bit o genocide with a side order of massive police funding increase with it’s inevitable brutality and anyway he said ‘nothing would fundamentally change’ so what did you expect healthcare or student debt relief? Get real. It puts the lotion on its skin or it gets the trump again

What’s funny is that no one considers what that says about all the presidents since FDR before Biden, even if it were true.

They didn’t think Trump was wholly bad, he was just too loud and uncouth

If he’d acted like a ‘dignified’ Republican (or even GW), they’d have grumbled as they always do but been tolerant of him.

Remember when he dropped that bomb and suddenly became presidential for a while?

I remember the whole discussion about him acting ‘presidential’ at his inauguration because he actually managed to shut up for a protracted period

Keep belittling my principled and consistent opposition to the systematic extermination of entire ethnic, religious, or cultural groups, widely regarded as the ultimate crime greater than any other conceivable crime.

Fucking liberals.

Sure, but the reality of the situation is that the guy running against Biden thinks we’re not killing Palestinians fast enough, while Biden at least verbally condemns Israels extreme response.

Empty words considering his actions, but those actions have been the de-facto response the US Govt. has taken with Israel for over 50 years.

It’s a shit spot to be in, like most things in America, but acting like voting against Biden/democrats will produce anything in progressives favor is extremely naive…to say the least.

You’re absolutely right, which is why most of us act like voting won’t produce anything and is a largely unimportant form of political action.

Vote for slow genocide happening now, or vote for fast genocide later…

There won’t be a Palestine by election day. Liberals have assured me that Biden has no power over Bibi, so how exactly is trump going got speed the genocide up?

There was a point in time where I thought that was a hyperbolic statement and was a meme. Same with “social democracy is the moderate wing of fascism”. Not anymore. Every day it just proves more and more true

Don’t forget the “objectively” in there. Its the best part

Nah, it’s just the result of not having a true liberal/progressive party. As it stands, the current democratic party is more comparable to ‘normal’ conservative parties in progressive countries than anything resembling a sane liberal party.
