You suckers for propaganda still blaming Biden for Israel, but never the Congress that approved foreign aid to Israel, never the Republicans who this very moment are trying to remove the Palestinians from Gaza…. Cool, keep harping on that and ignore whatever the fuck Trump & Co. are doing to this nation. And to Gaza…
Why not both? Plus, he could have condemned backing isreal, regardless of what congress voted to do.
Because it's never both. I could count on one hand the times I seen people on lemmy call Trump a genocide supporting megalomaniac and I'd still have enough fingers to count to 5.
People call him out everyday. What you dont see is people defending him.
They also seem to think the conflict/occupation started October 7
Russians found America's greatest weakness:
Most of us are pathetic whiners who will use any excuse to not actually do something meaningful.
Give them a chance to whine online, they'll put up with LITERAL fascism.
They used the exact same techniques to steer the GOP towards their evil dixiecrat core.
It's genocide lmao, kind of the best excuse you can find.
Shame the dems cared so little about their voters that they chose to give Russia such an easy win. At least Israel got to kill a bunch of civilians. Hope it was worth it.
Really fun that I'm supposed to get mad at voters that cant stomach genocide of all things, and not the pro-genocide party masquerading as good guys.
I've been saying this since November 5th, but this argument is completely meaningless unless the other choice was against genocide. And hey guess how Gaza is doing right now?
So, you realize Trump is 10x Biden/Harris or really anyone else when it comes to genocides?
Not just Gaza, but Ukraine, cancelling USAID, WHO, and generally destabilizing the planet.
Trump is the bigger problem, put a stake through his heart and then move on.
Or be happy being sent to El Salvador for even speaking out about Gaza.
You may have forgotten Biden broke US law by going around Congress to provide arms to Israel...

Or maybe you never knew?
Biden had the opportunity to fix it, and not propagate evil.
He did nothing. He maintained the status quo. And gleefully handed it off to the next fascist.
He is as evil and complicit as everyone else.
Thanks for backing up my point: All complaints to Biden, nothing to Congress or Trump. Even if Biden tried to cut funding to Israel, Congress would have overridden him.
Literally the opposite happened...

Congress didn't want to because there was evidence US arms were being used in the genocide.
Biden violated the Leahy Law by personally going around Congress and "selling" bombs to Israel.
You're spreading blatant revisionism about recent events all over, even when people inform you. So it's really looking like intentional misinformation on your part.
Do you think this “genocide” would have kicked off without the Hamas attack?
Of course I blame all of those people too, what the hell are you talking about? They should all be tried and hanged in a Super Nuremberg. The only tragedy in Joe Biden's cancer is that he won't live to face justice for the atrocities he committed over his long and comfortable life. I have hope that all the monsters in congress and both party apparatuses will hang one day.
Y’all “blame” Congress and Trump and Republicans only in passing when called out on it. Otherwise it’s the “Democrats” fault with no further mention of anyone else who could be complicit. The rest of us notice.
Both parties are wrong for enabling genocide. I wont defend either of them. Both need to stop and distance themselves from any genocidal states.
You probably see a discrepancy in comments about it because its mostly reactive commenting to people actually defending democrats for their stance. Everyone is in agreement that Trump is helping Israel commit genocide but with the democrats, there is always a scapegoat to point the finger at.
You "blame" the Republicans so much you never once commented about their involvement in Israel until now, when you are called out on it.
