    They’re a huge difference between criticizing, and refusing to vote for him over a single issue. Criticize him all you wish, he’s certainly earned it, but crossing one’s arms and staying home instead of voting as a result of said criticism is fucking stupid.

      Genocide is a pretty big issue as far as it goes though. Wouldn’t say it was “fucking stupid” - what if you have family in Gaza? What if one of them died?

      I think you’d still have to vote Biden (first past the post fucking sucks) but if you didn’t, it’s on Biden for not changing his approach in the face of criticism from both voters and his own party. That is how democracy is supposed to work.

        Biden hasn’t committed genocide. And the fact that you think he has- or even has the authority to do so in another country he has no authority over- illustrates my point:

        You kids serially need a new bit. Because this one is exhausting for myself and everyone else to try and correct. It’s fundamentally wrong on every level.

        I’m going to go ahead block you now as I have with all the other nonsense spewing tankie because I can see from just this one comment of yours that you will not add anything of value to add to any discussion I might find myself in.

          Well I don’t think he has soooo? Literally read the first comment you responded to.

          He bypassed congress to get them weapons to continue the killing and the US vetoed a cease fire resolution. This is not “you kids and your tiktok talking points” as much as “well known pieces of news that paint a clear picture of complicity in what is being seriously investigated by the ICJ as a case of genocide.”

          Lol I am a tankie now apparently despite being an anti-authoritarian leftist. I’m sure you’ll be way more informed if you block any opinion outside of your bubble. Absolutely delusional
