    Support for genocide is not stretchy, no. Aiding a government that’s committing genocide is supporting genocide. Period.

      Is not getting involved in stopping the genocide supporting genocide through inaction?

        If both parties are fully genocidal then neither of them represent resistance to it and voting for either is approval.

        Reform is the only option. GOP has no chance of reform, Democrats have an infinitesimally narrow window left through which to achieve reform before fascism is fully rooted. They will not reform if rewarded with power.

        Those are your democratic options. Do what you think will be least ineffective, and then prepare for the overwhelming statistical liklihood that Democrats will fumble any opportunity you give them out of greed and deluded incompetence.

          Well, the good news is that only describes one of the parties that includes people who have said out loud that they support genocide and/or are writing messages supportive of killing Palestinians on the bombs used for genocide.

              Biden is the entire Democratic party?

              Seems like a small party.
