    Joe Biden must be supernatural, since he CAUSED this, apparently.

    How can people be so fucking dumb?

      While he obviously didn’t decide on the strategy of genocide being pursued by the Israeli state, it is very disingenuous to say he hasn’t provided important political, economic, and material support for Israel. It has been rough watching America from next door. I have always understood that MAGA is unable to confront the reality of Trumps profound insuitability for public office, or general public interaction. It’s rough seeing that there is a similar level of intentional blindness on the other side as well. It may well be that voting for Biden is a grim necessity to slow the descent into dictatorship, but honestly, pretending his role as an enabler for genocide isn’t obvious, is pretty foolish.

        We call them Blue MAGA. They’re cult-like just as much as Trump’s MAGA.

          Quick question, who’s “we”? Pretty much everyone I see use the term “blue MAGA” seems to mean by it, all the Democrats.

          Or are you saying the Democrats as a whole are cult-like just as much as Trump’s MAGA?

          Who is this “we”? You’re literally the only person pushing this crap. The poor horse is dead, let it be.

          Criticize Biden all you want, but this idea of some sort of “Blue MAGA” following him in lock step is beyond idiotic and does more harm than good in furthering your criticism. No one likes Biden that much. Making up imaginary groups to hate for imaginary reasons is what facists and authoritarians do, and judging by your posting history that’s not who you personally want to align yourself with.

      You don’t think electing a guy who spent 50 years saying literally nothing would ever stop or even reduce his support of Israel has anything to do with Israel no longer listening to America?

      Like, you know pretty much every modern president has been in this situation?

      When it was Obama, he drew a hard-line and said if Israel didn’t ease back he’d cut them off. Biden was pissed and publicly disagreed with him

      But Israel backed down.

      It’s been happening all the way back to Reagan.

      Biden is the only president Israel won’t listen to, because Biden has spent a literal lifetime telling them they can do anything they want.

      Can you not connect two steps of logic?

      Did you think people honestly meant Biden was running around like Rambo committing war crimes?

    That strikes me as overly reductionist. Biden’s definitely not doing enough to stop the genocide, but he didn’t cause it. He’s also not a vital instrument of the apparatus that’s allowing it to be executed.

    I love watching this shit get downvoted into oblivion. It gives me hope that lemmy isn’t going to be a far-left wind tunnel of misinformation and/or propaganda.

    Americans would do well to realize that the POTUS is not America. You are. If anything, you caused this.
