    gonna make a comment that doesn't call for illegal-to-say

    If you are a liberal or progressive who plans not to vote in November over the Biden administration's support of Israel in the Gaza conflict, you are a fucking moron. Abstaining from voting is the same as handing Trump your vote, because I guarantee conservatives won't miss this election for the world.

    :ole-reliable: vote

    (we should get an ole reliable emote)


    Biden is trying to pump the brakes, trump will encourage them to wipe out palestine.\

    do liberals actually think this? like they actually think biden saying "they gotta stop!" and then sending in another shipment of bombs counts as him "pump(ing) the breaks"?

    Heres the thing, bidens foot is nowhere near the brakes. Hes in the passenger seat at best. Bibi is the one driving, and biden is telling him to slow down. Biden is no more capable of controlling Israel than the EU is, but you dont see people yelling at them for it.

    Now people want to replace biden with trump, who would challenge netanyahu to floor it or no balls.

    they actually think this, huh?


    May someone EILI5 why this is the hill that so many, particularly young “progressives” wish to die on?

    It seems like if there ever was a “both-sides” topic, this is the one. Why are they willing to accept what the other alternative (a Trump presidency) will be like but not accept the lesser of the two evils (a Biden presidency)?

    liberals can't understand being anti-genocide unless it's explained to them as if they were a toddler.


    According to noted philosopher The Good Place, the correct answer is to throw yourself in front of the trolley.

    so-true it's just like my treats!!!!


    "I'm against genocide" says the genocide supporters who will let Trump genocide Palestinians, Ukrainians, Taiwanese, American Muslims, LGBTQ+ Americans, Jewish Americans, Immigrants, and many, many others.

    and democrats will stand gleefully by and watch it happen, right?


    You’re missing about 29,999 bodies on bidens track

      They just make stuff up. Trump is going to genocide... Taiwanese people? The worse their guy gets, the worse his opponent must be or else their guy would be bad (impossible).

        I think the genocide supporters are the people voting for the war criminal responsible for committing genocide, actually

        Logic here is interesting. I assume they meant Trump will go to war with China, and Taiwanese who will die will be his fault.

        But by the same logic, Biden is to blame for at least 400000 dead Ukrainians. Not to mention it's Biden govt that not only continue the Trump policy of antagonising and waging economic war against China, and it's Dem government and party members who constantly insult China like not even Pompeo did.

      Isn't this just the trolley problem reimagined? The correct action would be for Biden to jerk the wheel of the tortured metaphor of a car into a grove of very solid trees, so the "car" doesn't kill another 40,000 innocents
