    When would the killing stop under biden (or harris who was happy to continue his policies)? Pausing one fucking shipment isn’t the amazing stand for life that you think it is. Sure though, blame it all on Palestine and not the democrats refusing to listen to voters (on many issues, not just this one) during a fucking election. I’m sure if the other pro-genocide candidate got in, we’d all be living in fucking paradise.

      I hope your path of reasoning works out, but I fear Trump would even allow Israel to throw nuclear weapons at Palestine… just for shits and giggles of his fan base to see if Israel really would.

      They will drive Israel to the limit of atrocious crimes they allow … and use this to prosper antisemitic sentiment everywhere else. That’s my prognosis, let’s see who is closer to the truth.

      Well, for one, Harris wouldn’t have had people doing Nazi salutes on stage at her inauguration… But surely that’s unrelated.

        I would put forward the argument that Democrat voters are obsessed with appearances and rhetoric, and completely ignore policy that contradicts the ideals they think of themselves as having. You criticize Elon Musk doing Nazi symbolism, great. Count how many comments you’ve posted about that, and then give me the ratio of those to the number of comments you posted criticizing Biden for sending ~30 billion dollars of arms to a genocide. Because, at the end of the day, the biggest problem with Nazism was that it resulted in genocide. You might remember from school that genocide is LITERALLY THE WORST THING EVER BESIDES COMPLETE NUCLEAR ANNIHILATION OF THE PLANET.

        I’d like to see a minimum of 1:100 on those comments. I get the feeling it’s less.

        No but she would have had people like Liz Cheney on stage with her, who are just the somewhat more polite precursor to nazis and harbor the same essential bigotry just more disguised in the language of the ruling class.
