      The Palestinian people are very much in danger of being final solutioned, under our sitting president.

          I’m getting a real “Bombs can’t cause genocide!” vibe from you.

          “any opposition to our guy must be from republicans and republicans are 100% bad therefore our guy’s genocide is 100% good” -you, apparently

          Genuinely sanguine. Please sit down and think about what you just said, because that’s genocide denial at best.

      A lot of citizens also say that. Why do Americans think their election is an Angel vs satan. It’s just bad vs worse.

          I wonder what the losing side will blame for the lack of turnout.

        Oh yeah we’d nevvvveer have a bunch of “I used to be Democrat voter until event _____, now I’m all in Republican” show up with their new attempted catchline. Noooo, would nevvvver happen. Not online.

          We aren’t voting for Biden or Trump.

            Those are the choices though. Either at worse the status quo or the people who want it harder faster and to potentially bring it home. I would like to change joe biden’s mind, and take away funding for Israel’s death machine, so I’ll reach out to my reps, but I won’t sit out. Sitting out implies that the magnitude of this issue is unimportant. Only the issue itself.

              Those are only the choices if I assume moderates and liberals would rather lose to MAGA than make material compromises with leftists and progressives. I’ll be voting 3rd party in the hopes that they will realize they can’t win elections on their own and be more open to working together in the future.

      I don’t think anyone who says “genocide joe” agrees with what Joe is doing quietly nor what Tim Walberg is saying out loud.
