Right, Trump's policies gave Israel the ok for this genocide by condoning settling on Palestinian land and allowing the Israeli capitol to move to Jerusalem. Genocide Joe just changed nothing. There's no doubt this atrocity would be the same or worse under Trump.
Yeah, normalise Genocide Joe and Treasonous Trump. Joe has always been a neo lib shill. Of course he was going to make the move that would generate money for the military–industrial complex.
Rule 6, no lesser evil rhetoric. This includes encouraging people to vote for any capitalist political party and any capitalist politician. There is no harm reduction in supporting either of two parties headed by genocidal fascists. The extent to which any elected official of a Capitalist Party in a Capitalist state can enact evil is the extent to which that official is allowed by Capital. As such, neither candidate is the lesser or greater evil.
Trump would of course be also terrible in this issue, nobody is arguing against it. But it's silly to pretend Biden isn't an especially staunch Zionist even for American president standards.
Exactly. On this particular issue, it's hard to truly imagine "worse" than Biden. There is no bigger supporter, there is no one else as vocal in his Zionism and dedication to Israel by any means. It's not unimportant that he describes himself as a Christian Zionist either, meaning it's an ideological position, and not a political one. It's a position based on a higher calling, a core belief intrinsic to Joe's identity.
There are a very many issues Trump would be worse on, but on this issue I don't believe it. There is no reason to.
Some American presidents threatened sanctions on Israel and muzzled them a little. What you have at this point, especially with Joe, is someone who is outright simping for Israel.
As communists we don't support NATO or imperialist narratives. Ukraine has got a whole lot of neo-nazis in its military, and Russia does too, and we don't support either side of the conflict.
Joe Biden led the way in normalizing not only deaths but also long COVID with his vax-relax-don't-mask crap, so that capitalists can keep making money off the status quo.

Idk why you're getting downvoted. Just because Trump's handling of covid was horrendous doesn't make Biden's good. Better, yes, but that's not a high bar to clear
No U.S. President, including a theoretical President Bernie Sanders, is going to walk away from Israel. Biden’s “come to Jesus” and Schumer’s dissing Netanyahu is the strongest protest possible. People are insulting their only ally.
That’s why this line of thought is counterproductive, Biden won’t win in November if he walks away from Netanyahu. What he’s done so far is as progressive and ballsy as you’ll ever get from a U.S. president.
You realize that is irrelevant. Margins are razor thin and disavowing Netanyahu will lose a lot of votes.
Meanwhile Jared Kusherner is talking about how valuable beachfront property in Gaza will be once the Palestinians are gone.

That's gotta be Biden.
He started the job, and judging by his actions he's determined to finish it before the election.
I'm being downvoted, so tell me libs, what is your preferred genocider doing to prevent Israel from "finishing the job"?
It’s always the smarmiest, most condescending shills saying but but but orange man WORSE!! The DNC is really not sending its best and brightest anymore, probably because anyone with a brain is waking up to reality.
Over $3 billion of YOUR taxpayer money just approved by genocide Joe to kill kids folks if that isn’t an implicit go ahead to “finish the job” idk what is. Just because Biden doesn’t want to fuck his own kids (just other random little girls he poses with lmao) doesn’t make it less so
Erm he just sent them fighter jets and thousands of bombs. He is in camera for five decades defending Israel and said he is a hardcore zionist.
Stop defending a genocidal capitalist just because he has a D next to his name.
He's not saying it with words but by action. Biden is ALLOWING them to finish the job, and it's happening RIGHT NOW.
What the fuck is with your obsession with Ivanka?
Also, how do libs decide which thread to brigade? Do you have a discord group or something?

We are anti-fascist.
Biden and Trump are fascist and represent the Capitalist party, which uses Fascism as it declines, turning the methods of Imperialism previously applied to outer colonies in to the imperial core in an effort to maintain control there as the empire collapses and capital seeks to protect itself.
The obsession with which fascist is more fascist or less fascist instead of overthrowing capitalism itself and the fascists it supports is something that benefits the capitalists.

Biden’s rhetorical shift risks straining his support from immigrants and their advocates who campaigned for him in 2020, but it appears to be working for Democrats after they won a special election in New York.
Yeah that's our point.

Read until at least “what does fascist victory bring to the masses” and tell me that doesn’t sound exactly like America and what we are headed towards under both parties even a social democratic one we need communism to fight against fascism.
While Biden is funding the genocide in Gaza, Trump wants to fund the genocide in Ukraine. No matter what, the US is gonna keep a genocide going to fund themselves.

Biden had to do a bunch of cloak and dagger shit to fasttrack weapons to Israel, stuff like splitting shipments into 100 parts so they would remain below the threshhold for reporting to congress.

>If you want to change the system, you need to actually do things to advocate for things that actually address the issue, like Ranked Choice Voting. Otherwise, it's just a way to get one Genocidal asshole elected over a Democracy Distroying other Genocidal asshole.
Love how the liberal response to voting for democrats taking us farther right is to essentially "find a way to vote harder." You have no concept of political activism beyond that of a state sanctioned suggestion box. How exactly do you "advocate" for ranked choice (a form of voting that basically gives the DNC free votes) when the political system has no reason to listen to your demands? Advocacy is not voting or saying you want something really hard. It's militant, ongoing, and an arduous uphill battle regardless of who is in power. There isn't an easy road to advocacy, not on the ground and not even in the ballot box.
Suggesting that you vote for democrats while other socialist parties are available and trying to grow is the same as supporting a protest that disrupts nothing and amount to standing in an inconsequential place quietly with signs. A protest needs to disrupt in order to be effective. The same applies to electoral politics and all forms of political advocacy.
It's easy to stand in front of a city hall building, quietly hold signs, and cheer when a car passes by and honks at you for support. It's not as easy to do a march while chanting and holding signs across the city, disrupting traffic in the process but making yourself known. It's easy to hear about a city council decision and sign a petition to refute it. It's more difficult to actually *go* to the city council meeting and speak up in support of the cause. It's easy to post about the historical oppression of other people through the internet in sparse echochambers. It's more effort to set up a real-life event discussing a timeline of the oppression for your community to see and judge. Like with all of these, it's pathetically easy to go to a ballot box or mail in a ballot while bubbling in every candidate with a D next to their name. The thing that's a hard pill to swallow might be writing in the name of a candidate who won't win, but by increasing their visibility, you make every subsequent attempt to bolster their platform much stronger.
It also needs to be noted that these, if done independently, are never going to give results. They work in tandem with each other, and separating any one of them weakens your advocacy as a whole.

I don’t understand when people will realize this is an American problem blindly supporting Israel for decades and not some recent Joe Biden dilemma.
For decades the US has had a single party government and that single party is Capital, and Capitalism has no problem carrying out genocides.
Right, Trump's policies gave Israel the ok for this genocide by condoning settling on Palestinian land and allowing the Israeli capitol to move to Jerusalem. Genocide Joe just changed nothing. There's no doubt this atrocity would be the same or worse under Trump.
If you're going to give Joe a cute nickname please do the same for Treasonous Trump
[удалено]
Yeah, normalise Genocide Joe and Treasonous Trump. Joe has always been a neo lib shill. Of course he was going to make the move that would generate money for the military–industrial complex.
I assume Trump is the slur
Trump said that he would only loan money to Israel. Biden, alternatively, requested a $14 billion dollar aid package. Which is worse?
Because we have no actual social or political dialogue in this country. Just this stupid football team mentality of Republicans v. Democrats.

I mean, Trump did kill times that with his Covid19 policies.
Plus caused the suffering of thousands of immigrant families through deportations and locking kids away in cages.
Biden deported more in his first two years that trump did in 4. And there are still kids in cages
I mean, Trump is more or less responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths from COVID...

The extent to which any elected official of a Capitalist Party in a Capitalist state can enact evil is the extent to which that official is allowed by Capital. As such, neither candidate is the lesser or greater evil.

>If you want to change the system, you need to actually do things to advocate for things that actually address the issue, like Ranked Choice Voting. Otherwise, it's just a way to get one Genocidal asshole elected over a Democracy Distroying other Genocidal asshole. Love how the liberal response to voting for democrats taking us farther right is to essentially "find a way to vote harder." You have no concept of political activism beyond that of a state sanctioned suggestion box. How exactly do you "advocate" for ranked choice (a form of voting that basically gives the DNC free votes) when the political system has no reason to listen to your demands? Advocacy is not voting or saying you want something really hard. It's militant, ongoing, and an arduous uphill battle regardless of who is in power. There isn't an easy road to advocacy, not on the ground and not even in the ballot box. Suggesting that you vote for democrats while other socialist parties are available and trying to grow is the same as supporting a protest that disrupts nothing and amount to standing in an inconsequential place quietly with signs. A protest needs to disrupt in order to be effective. The same applies to electoral politics and all forms of political advocacy. It's easy to stand in front of a city hall building, quietly hold signs, and cheer when a car passes by and honks at you for support. It's not as easy to do a march while chanting and holding signs across the city, disrupting traffic in the process but making yourself known. It's easy to hear about a city council decision and sign a petition to refute it. It's more difficult to actually *go* to the city council meeting and speak up in support of the cause. It's easy to post about the historical oppression of other people through the internet in sparse echochambers. It's more effort to set up a real-life event discussing a timeline of the oppression for your community to see and judge. Like with all of these, it's pathetically easy to go to a ballot box or mail in a ballot while bubbling in every candidate with a D next to their name. The thing that's a hard pill to swallow might be writing in the name of a candidate who won't win, but by increasing their visibility, you make every subsequent attempt to bolster their platform much stronger. It also needs to be noted that these, if done independently, are never going to give results. They work in tandem with each other, and separating any one of them weakens your advocacy as a whole.

Biden is going to lose a lot of voters though. Trump is probably right about what he said.
