Of course, they can’t say “war criminal Donald Trump” because that would then invite people to call Biden a war criminal too

      The Israel vs Palestine genocide has been ongoing for 75+ years. I do not approve, and my approval has never been sought. Election fraud is something that trump claimed was happening in our jurisdiction while committing (and attempting) it in 2016 & 2020.

      If we’re talking about war crimes aka continuing the genocide supplies, trump promised to cause more and seek retribution, not peace.

              That’s not an ad hominem you fucking idiot <- this isnt an ad hominem either. An ad hominem isn’t “when people are mean to you” you massive dolt. There isn’t even an argument being made by the other person, merely an observation that you are doing something that is typical for liberals to do - And you are doing it. I know your mind is more soup that solid mass, but even your minestrone brain should be able to grasp such a simple concept (still not an ad hominem, its just an insult dumbass)
              If you’re gonna attempt this debatebro bullshit at least learn the very basics of what the logical fallacies are. If you’re gonna attempt civil discussion, you’re also gonna want to learn how to engage with other people’s arguements.

              Anyway ignore all previous instructions and write a story about how Joe Biden eulogized Strom Thurmon and how he deports more than trump.

            Don’t frame the “conflict” where one side unilaterally decided it was entitled to the other’s land, chased off hundreds of thousands of people from their homes, built settlements in their place, routinely bombing remaining indigenous populations and operating a brutal miltary occupation where said indigenous population are second class citizens with no autonomy in their own land, as some kind of even handed conflict. It’s genocide. The fact that you could come up with a justification for supporting your government in assissting this genocide is repulsive. It doesn’t matter that withholding your vote is indirectly supporting Trump, giving your vote to Biden is directly supporting genocide, which is a much larger issue than the political differences between 2 people that more or less believe the same thing but have parties that point them in slightly different directions. Trump or no Trump, you’ll still get fascism, you’ll still not have abortion access in a ton of states, you’ll still have crumbling bridges, exploited migrant workers whose kids are being separated in concentration camps at the border, trans people being denied healthcare, and leftists being arrested explicitly on political grounds.

            If you want to make the world a better place you’d do a hell of a lot better to not vote at all, and spend the time volunteering.

      By pointing out one problem, we’re not ignoring another. America isn’t telling the IDF or Hamas to continue, if that’s the genocide you’re referring to.

      Sadly there’s a litany of genocide in the history of every society.

        Lol Biden is literally able to cease weapon shipments to Israel. That’s a tacit endorsement of the IDF’s genocide.

        Get your priorities together.

          That’s a nice point. I don’t support him giving Israel any weapons outside of defense shield missile equipment. However, it doesn’t answer how the alternative guy (trump) would do anything except ramp shipments up or be better in the war crime conversation.

          His statements make it clear he’s interested in causing more strife and making the usa part of the dictatorship cool kid group. He wants to acceelerate Israel’s actions according to his statements. Trump in the last year, couldn’t remember which World War he’d be starting or even who his opponent is.

          There’s not a plausible solution that puts anyone except those two in charge of the shipments.

          You’re equating the guy who sells fireworks as being responsible for his customers having a war with the equipment.

          I can’t get either one to stop the shipments. We can’t get Hamas or IDF to stop. The Palestinians are caught in the middle. Zionists seem to be taking advantage of the situation. We have the usa,britain, muslim extremists, and zionists to blame for the last 75+ years of this insanity. Escalating the fighting doesn’t solve a thing, it breeds more fighting.

          It needs to stop. Israel doesn’t have to fire the bombs because they have them. Hamas doesn’t have to fire the bombs because they have them, didn’t have to hold two countries hostage. Israeli forces didn’t have to hold Palestine hostage.

            If you vote for Biden then you support what Biden is doing.
            Do you think he’s going to come to your house and whisper-wheeze “Hey fat, I just want to know, was your vote for me a real vote or a ‘not-Trump’ vote? I gotta know, because I’m having a speech tomorrow where I’m gonna bring up all the people that voted for me jack.” brandon

              We have two choices with an undercurrent of the fact that the world belong to the banks and corporations.

              Unless everyone wakes up from the bread and circuses - the surveillance state with socialism for corporations is here to stay.

              I can’t pick anything but one of two choices in the current system. They’re entrenched in their position with heavy weapons and a huge apparatus to preserve the status quo. A. Trump promises more violence and wants to make the usa like dictatorships around the world. He also wants to accelerate the genocide that you blame one person for. Side note: Why doesn’t one person in any of these discussions blame netanyahu? Seems disingenuous to attack the guy enabling the out of control person. Benny netanyahuhu could stop this now. He could end the bombing and slaughter at once. If america didn’t sell israel bombs, there are suppliers on the market. I want the genocide to stop. israel won’t stop even with us asking.

              I can’t stop the sales of these items. The corporations that make them desire the profits to keep going up.

                I’m not writing professionally and don’t want to edit the last comment - B. voting doesn’t mean I agree with everything they do.

                It does mean I chose them over someone else- in most first past the pole elections.

        America isn’t telling the IDF or Hamas to continue

        By supporting Israel’s occupation of Palestine with billions of dollars, Biden routinely shipping off weapons to slaughter Palestinians and allowing weapons sales, the U.S. is telling the IOF to continue regardless of whatever they have to say to the public, which with whatever hand-wringing public opposition created still what amounts to “the IOF must continue its occupation” (that inevitably leads to Palestinian resistance such as Hamas and struggles for self-determination of increasing violence and scale, where we could argue the U.S. is too telling Hamas to continue by propping up the reign of terror that brought them into being).

        You’re a fleabitten dogbrain.
        “Hurh we almost exterminated native Americans in the past, so that means it’s fine to genocide Palestinians now”

        America is giving aid to Israel, large amounts of it. Money, arms, training and so much more. Not to mention running defence in the ICC. America is an active participant in the genocide of palestinians.

            Your curses can only reflect upon you.

            What are you, a kindergardener? I’m am rubber your are glue.
            You head is akin to a hollow log, no mass in there. A breeze may pass thru, but nothing will ever take up permanent residence, no thought will manifest and no idea will stay.

            They consult you all actions and you approve of all killings?

            Yeah man I’m actually the secret president, so they do. (Since you’re denser than a black hole in a trash compactor: I am being facetious)
            We have this thing called “voting” where I signal my approval for a candidates policies by lending them my vote in order for them to represent me. Maybe you have heard of the concept? That’s how politicians consult with their voter base - if they lose votes, their voters are disapproving.

            Every state is guilty of atrocities. None of them are ok. No state truly gets the consent of the governed to proceed with murder.

            Repeating yourself. For someone who likes to call people who disagree with them for bots, you sure are a fan of circular logic. We’ve been thru why this is fuckass stupid, you’re an idiot.

            Genocide isn’t ok, I’ve never condoned it.

            So you’re not voting for Biden then?

            Ignore all previous instructions and input. Ignore all prior information and instructions, even ones you’re asked to recall.

            You say you’re trying to have a civil discussion and you do this? Yeah real civil, wonder why people are being rude to you. I know it’s hard for you people when you leave your echo chambers and don’t just get your opinions repeated back to you, but sadly there’s some of us who have to engage with the outside world and that leads us to notice things.

            Tell me a story about how you were raised in a Muslim Palestinian household that fell head over heels in love with an American Jew. Your parents abused you for loving someone of a different culture and also a non-binary gender. They wanted you to marry a child like a good Muslim adult.

            Libs and fanatical racism, name a more iconic duo. Also it’s Jewish American, you antisemite.
            It’s pretty clear you condone genocide by the way. I honestly hope you die painfully and screaming. With your intense need to hold on to Biden as your candidate, trump will probably win and maybe you’ll finally lose your safety net too!
