      Drone strikes haven't fully stopped and probably won't, Biden has all but said as such. They have decreased by about 80%, which - I'm just saying it takes 5 minutes to vote in a vote-by-mail state and this was worth the 5 minutes.

      And yeah, Trump expanded the drone war leagues beyond what Obama did. I was not expecting Biden to massively scale back the drone war after 15 uninterrupted years of expanding it.

        There was absolutely no evidence he would end drone strikes before the election. There was no good reason to vote for Biden.

          Come on, this was worth that family in Kabul, it takes 15 min of your life to vote, like how they will never get even 15 more minutes alive again.

            Again, there was absolutely zero evidence he would do this. And what family in Kabul, the one Biden drone striked already? I don't think voting for Biden helped them any.

              That's my point. They die in Biden's vengeful warmongering, maybe they would otherwise, but regardless this is what you are voting for. I am saying voting for Biden means killing them, whatever minimizing of drone strikes has to be put in the context of THIS still happening. If it is such a big deal and you really ought to vote for Biden, then what are they? Acceptable loses?

              Americans are so ready at the drop of a hat to defend their empire and slightly less bloodied hands. People want an excuse to endorse or support crimes while feeling a bit better about it. I don't give kudos or props, let alone a vote to the man who blew up a family and said it was fair game

              You realize I was agreeing with your comment right?

        Trump literally turned over strike authorization to the military, Biden took that back and isn't authorizing every strike like Obama/Trump did prior to turning it over
