      Cool, now do Biden’s hard-line position!! Only one of these guys is currently in power with his foot on the genocide gas pedal and nobody here seems to want to do anything to stop it! Absolute horse shit if you ask me

        Do you prefer genocide or more genocide and the end of democracy? That’s where we are at right now.

        nobody here seems to want to do anything to stop it!

        Like what, vote for Trump? There’s at least a small hope that biden gets fed up with Israel’s shit, trump fully supports it.

          Explain how it is that this is actually where we are at.

          And, if this is actually where we are at, then why should any of us want to maintain such a system? Shouldn’t a system that is reliant on genocide be dismantled? Isn’t that the entire point of the Nuremberg Trials?

          Wow, sounds like a shitty failure of a system that I would be an absolute rube to support in any way.

          Like what, vote for Trump?

          The answer surely isn’t “vote for joe no matter what he does, no line is too far”

            Question, who should someone who wants to end the genocide, vote for? What is your suggestion? How and why would that vote change the situation for the better? How likelihood is the desired outcome?

              You should be protesting against the war and show solidarity with others doing the same

              Panic posting about protestors endangering an election is counter effectual; if you want to help you can start by keeping your mouth shut about the election in the context of the protest.

                Thanks for the advice but it doesn’t answer my questions.

                It also ignores the context of the conversation. The commenter seems to be implying that you shouldn’t vote for Biden. And I would like to hear their suggestion.

                  There is no option to end the genocide on the ballot in November, that’s the point. Your time is better spent pushing one of the options that is on the ballot towards ending support.

                    I am happy to see your passion. And I agree with you but I am asking the person, whom I should be voting for in their opinion. I want to hear THEIR opinion. Thanks.

            The answer is “vote for Joe despite him not doing more to aid Gaza, because the only alternative is far, far worse”.

              Why should anyone support the continuation of a system that offers this as the best available choice?
