    I’m gonna vote for Biden if I have to rise from the dead and crawl through broken glass to do so, and I hope everyone reading this thread does.

    I’m not willing to pretend he’s not facilitating an ongoing genocide though.

          Not really. I’m in Northern Ireland and my vote does fuck all to affect who’s elected UK Prime Minister. The current governing party runs candidates here but they’ve never won a seat and their closest competitors don’t run any candidates at all here. Never mind I live in a stronghold seat so it won’t change anyway.

      This. You deal with the choice in front of you, and not the ones you wish you had. Life is bigger than our little worlds.

      Who makes you pretend that? You guys all want a medal for preaching to the choir?

        The Democratic party expects their members to pretend that what’s happening in Gaza is not a genocide. They censured Rep Tlaib for saying so in Congress.

            So what you’re saying is that you’re a-okay with fascism and genocide, provided it wears a blue jersey?

                I see a whole lot of excuses flying form Democrats to try and distract from the fact that they’re voting for Genocide Joe in November.

                This thread is littered with them.

                  If you actually cared about saving Palestine, your best bet is genocide Joe whether you like it or not.

                  Every other option just increases the chance for Turbo Genocide Donny to “finish the job”, and you know it.

                  But you don’t care about Palestine, do you? You just want to sow chaos in the US.

                  If you’re wonder why it seems like no one takes you seriously, it’s the “gEnoCiDe jOe” thing. It’s just as cringy as “Let’S gO bRaNdOn! but with the added take that it’s coming for a group of people that should know better.

                    You will never see me say ‘Let’s go Brandon’.

                    Genocide Joe is an appropriate nickname though. Joe’s done everything he can to earn it.
