"Yemen has been targeted by U.S. military action and bombings over the last four American presidencies — of George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Donald Trump, now Joe Biden."
Red and blue are the same party, stop voting for them.
What awful advice. So don't vote and continue the slide, or vote for a third party sock puppet like the Greens?
No idea who the greens are, vote for someone that isn't a fascist or a genocide supporter, do not give them your support, they feed on your vote.
If they're not supporting this tier of "not even hiding it" genocide it's better to vote for a cum sock.
What a stupid take.
Red wants my friends dead, I have little choice but to ensure blue wins the presidency while I work for local change. Not voting is not an option.
Both red and blue wants people in the middle east dead. Instead of picking a group of dead people over another what about voting for someone that isn't a fucking murderer?
I'm not going to morally grandstand, I'm going to look out for the people I care about. You wanna throw your vote away to make a point, be my guest.
Voting might ensure that the situation might not get worse. You need to change the voting system to actually make a meaningful difference.
Edit: wtf are the downvotes for?
That's the thinking that have the world Joe Biden. All his voters are complicit in his crimes against humanity.
Oh fuck off, if trump won you’d be standing here blaming spewing the same bullshit
I think you're probably right. But he didn't win, Biden did and the libs told us that he'd be good and we had to "save the democracy" etc. Now you're standing here still spewing bullshit even though you've been proven wrong by history.
I don’t understand this bizarre false dichotomy you have going on, it’s not like biden’s voters are thrilled about him. But if they had voted for anyone else, or not voted, the chronically online keyboard warriors would be standing here blaming them for trump getting elected- and he probably would be 100x worse for Palestine, not to even mention ukraine.
It’s kinda victim blamey, everyone is being held hostage by the same system here, and all you(and a lot of Lemmygrad and .ml seem to do) are bitch and moan about Biden without every having any semblance of an actual solution.
Their hands would be clean, instead of being soaked in blood. If they want to participate in the charade then they'll be judged.
He was pushing for the Zelensky to shut his hole and stop pushing for war.
You might be right about Palestine but we'll never know. You shouldn't vote for Trump either.
Oh we have a solution alright. You've just been too brainwashed to accept it.
Can you guys please keep it civil?
I don't know, that sounds like hard, thankless work that will take years of consistent effort, dealing with countless setbacks and losses but not giving up, before finally achieving our goals of making real and meaningful change. What if instead if that I just don't buy Starbucks, will that work?
Voting for red and blue won't either
Ignorant statement of the century.
If you were from Yemen and the past 4 red and blue presidents bombed your country who would you vote for?
