“What’s happening in Gaza is not genocide. We reject that,” Biden said at a Jewish American Heritage Month event at the White House.

I can’t tell if he’s pandering or trying to lose the election

      Nah, it’s only genocide if it’s carried with the intent to target the whole ethnic group, including civilians. Something that if the IDF really wanted, would’ve meant 100 times the casualties.

          A thing which isn’t happening, considering there’s food in Gaza…

          Maybe in the start of the war when there was a blockade, but that’s an order from the israeli government and they’re getting an arrest warrant for it.

            That’s great consider telling the IPC about it their website must be full of mistakes. Glad you cleared up this myth that israel is committing Genocide with a statement from the incredibly trustworthy israeli army.

      It’s more like he knows liberals and young people have to vote for him or they’ll get a fascist instead.

        They’ll get a hard core fascist with Trump. With Biden they’ll get a fascist-lite. None of the offensive parts of fascism. Just the corruption and special interests dictating policy parts.

        The US administration is so corrupt that it is hard to get anything useful done. Even if it is something that has been obvious for decades.

            It’s when a leader supports Genocide and smacks down any dissent with violence.

            Biden is actively threatening the ICC with sanctions and people say he’s not a fascist lmao.

            Tell me you don’t know what fascism is without telling me what fascism is.

    Where are the Biden boyfriends that call everyone that criticizes biden a Trump supporter? I said multiple times on lemmy that a lot of people go above and beyond to support this horrible person who repeatedly mentioned his fantasies for an israeli state and serving it since he was a kid.

    Trump is worse but that doesn’t mean you can’t criticize this piece of shit.

    And the worst thing is I live far away from the US and still get called Trump supporter for calling this sicko a sicko.

      Trump is worse but that doesn’t mean you can’t criticize this piece of shit.

      Trump says the quiet parts out loud. That’s what ultimately makes him “worse”. While Biden’s handlers give him the PC

      Um, Actually its not a real genocide because it didn’t occur in the genocide region of Auschwitz,

      Trump’s out there saying

      Israel is killing all the terrorists and that’s good aktuly and we should be more like them.

      But get down to the policies at hand and there’s no daylight between them.

      So much of this election boils down to liberals being forced to face the nightmarish specter of modern American policy even from within their blue state enclaves. With Biden, they can pretend its all being done for good reasons and with a respectable veneer of Rules Based Internationalism. With Trump, they’re forced to watch a guy fuck the rest of the planet with the lights on, while his backers whoop and cheer and siege hail on national television.

      But it boils down to optics. Whether we’re gearing up to bomb Iran, whether we’re buy Xinjiang textiles with one hand while wagging a finger at Beijing with the other, whether we’re giving Exxon subsidies to “research hydrogen alternatives” or just cutting them blank checks to drill baby drill, whether we’re holding kids in cages on the border under a rogue Republican governor or a fascist Republican president, its all the same fucking policies.

      Him or Trump. Both of them would probably be more popular if they just shut the fuck up once in a while.

        One day I want to see someone get elected based simply on the fact that they just don’t say anything. Like, Mr. Bean their way to the presidency.
