    You wanna know Trump’s real power? Look at the size of all of those issues on his side. They are all the same fucking size. “Jan 6th” is the same size as “grammer” but they get lumped together. Next week a new piece of bullshit gets thrown on and further distorts the magnitude of an issue like insurrection.

    Do not vote for Joe Biden. You do not have to pick between two parties whose platforms are genocide. Vote third party in the national and don’t support the genocide.

      You’re speaking to an audience of, optimistically, 500,000 people on a relatively obscure platform that is by proportion less American than most other social media platforms this size.

      If literally everyone who could vote saw you say “don’t vote Biden” and did exactly that, you’d make so little difference that you’d be actively contributing to the spoiler effect.

      You know, that thing that handed Trump the 2016 election?

      So fuck you. Fuck this system for being so shitty, but fuck you for advocating the only thing that would make things worse.

        Clinton and her hubris handed Trump the election. Spoiler is a myth liberals create for themselves to try and vote shame. Earn our fucking votes or they can fuck off.

          Nothing to do with Russian interference either?

          According to the special counsel investigation’s Mueller Report (officially named “Report on the Investigation into Russian Interference in the 2016 Presidential Election”),[42] the first method of Russian interference used the Internet Research Agency (IRA), a Kremlin-linked troll farm, to wage “a social media campaign that favored presidential candidate Donald J. Trump and disparaged presidential candidate Hillary Clinton”.[43] The Internet Research Agency also sought to “provoke and amplify political and social discord in the United States”.[44]

          The tactic was always to also shit as much on the competition as possible. They literally hacked her emails to do so.

          There is no doubt that the same thing is happening again right now.

          Can Biden be criticized for his behavior? Sure! Are bad faith actors piggybacking on this situation and amplifying the “Genocide Joe”-narrative ? Absolutely.

    These types of posts always strike me as desperate. I know no one and I mean no one that will switch from voting for Biden to voting for Trump just because he’s old and enables Israel’s genocide. And if they are willing to switch, you’re probably talking about mid-stage dementia boomers that are easily manipulated either way. Why do you have to get so offended that people talk shit about Biden? People didn’t vote for him cause they liked him. Your memes aren’t going to make people like Biden more, but they’ll definitely remind us that there are quite a few pathetic Democrats out there.

    There is also Bidens role in the Iraq war, that actually weighs quite heavy…

    Trump is probably still worse, but Biden is bad, really bad.

    I love watching this strawman over and over.

    Of course Biden is better than Trump. He should still stop supporting genocide.

      As far as I know, the Oval Office doesn’t have start/stop genocide button, or control inflation lever for that matter.

      If it’s not going to be Biden, then it will be someone else. Either a Republican or a Democrat.

      Even someone who earlier looked promising, eg Fetterman is a staunch Israel supporter.

      Because the problem is systematic. You can’t just uproot the US-Israel nexus that’s deeply entrenched in the US politics.
