It isn't relevant because he's not President, and using speculation about what he might have done does not justify or excuse abominable behavior.
So why the other guy still bring biden to the topic? Which abdominal behavior are you talking about?
It's the new "thanks Obama".
His comment was sarcasm, since MAGA Nazis always try to blame one of their favorite Democratic boogymen for everything, even stuff they are fully responsible for.
The abominable behavior I am talking about is the Gaza Genocide.
This is no time for sarcasm. Any decent person in a topic like that should simply condemn israeli actions and keep protesting against western complicity or continuing bds actions
Activists was illegally detained by occupying force outside of their jurisdiction. As decent human being you should condemn what happened instead of making joke. There are other posts where you can mock anybody you want related to their actions and stands
I'm assuming you downvoted me. I didn't downvote you. That's just as childish. 😘
I will rephrase: your terminology, lack of humor, and repeating the party line (like a parrot), point to you being pretty fanatical.
Fanaticism is never a good look. I really hate it when I see it on the left because we're supposed to better than that.
I've seen the same behaviours in evangelical Christians, the far right/MAGAts, scientologists, authoritarian supporters of China and Russia.
Spout propaganda and attack your own side in excess fervor: yup, I'm making assumptions.
You are free to downvotes whatever you like and same for me. It's you who is childish. I am not a fanatic either I don't treat parties as cults like you guys do in the USA
I am also curious about the propaganda you claim that I spew
I thought about giving a line-by-line of phrases that twig me out, but I don't want to help you mask the language. I will say that using a phrase like, Western Complicity,™ is a huge tell that you are being fed garbage or have a handler.
The actual left of the US doesn't like the Democrats either. We just don't have any other choice. That's American left 101.
Also, very common among American and western left in general: all governments suck. Yours does, mine does. To hold power at the higher levels of government means that person is almost certainly corrupt. Also, people are people. If there's an Us and Them, it's Us the people against the small group hoarding power and wealth. Just like it's always been.
All major world powers have committed genocides as far as I know. America - start with the Indians, throw in AIDS and gay men, and there are a bunch more. England - India. French - pick an African country. Russia - Ukraine, more than once. China - Uyghr and Buddhists.
Here's a thought. All this genocide enabling you think you see in people like me. I moved my family halfway across the country after saving for years because I was afraid of what might be coming. The rhetoric is the same as pre-war Germany. I fear genocide much closer to home.
So, at the end of the day, the Palestinian genocide is a horror that words break down on. Like all genocides. Still, it's shocking that so many Jewish people support this after the Holocaust. Hope it doesn't happen here.
