Look at all of this manufactured outrage! It’s glorious! So many people so upset over events that happen in a country they couldn’t have pointed to on a map six months ago, nor were even remotely aware there was even issues there.
'It's only a genocide and besides we don't even know where it is lol'
You ghoul. You absolute ghoul.
Have fun losing Michigan. The Arab voters will tell genocide joe to fuck off and no hwhite privilige assholes looking away from a genocide will be able to save his sorry ass.
Y'all just gonna do another Hillary with this man.
Thanks for proving my point.
Have fun defending yourself when you’re blamed for getting trump elected-
Remember, if you chose not to decide- you still have made a choice.
Hey buddy
You're electing a genocide enabler
Have fun with THAT
I despise that the voices Who speak up about genocide are being silenced by the Biden folks.
You are not. Helping. End. A. GENOCIDE.
Have you read the 84 pages the ICJ received in the application of a breach of the genocide convention in the case of South Africa v. Israel? Do you even know the several markers of what could in whole or in part amount to a genocide?
There is not a place hot enough in hell for the likes of Netanyahu and Biden.
Hey buddy
Let me clue you in on a little secret on why I refuse to vote in this election
I'm Dutch
How about you Come out clean and say you're voting for genocide like you are. I realize the two choices are shitty. So? That means Biden doesn't support a genocide? You have to resort to 'lmao buddy' and other shit lmao
Honestly, go read those 84 pages SA submitted. I'll end this train of comments with the following: you are not in any way helpful to the wellbeing of humanity as a whole, and I hope Biden is arrested by the ICC and gets to live his last days in a cold dark cell.
So basically… what’s happening here is we have a Dutch kid living under a monarchy whining about how America should be a socialist nation…..
ROFL… you can’t make this shit up.
Go read the documents South Africa submitted and stop supporting a genocide. It's that simple. Call me what you like, at least I don't support mass murder
I don’t support it either- which is why I- and my entire family are voting for Biden. How about you worry about what your king is up to and stay out of shit you know little to nothing about, mmmmkay?
You realize people can just, read up and be informed outside their own borders right? Of course you don't realize that, you're American.
Have fun voting for someone who supports genocide though! Real neat family trip. It's the American nuclear family dream, voting for genocide!
I've been in Palestine and I have spoken with more Palestinians than you probably have. I'm also an organizer and activist. It's not manufactured outrage.
Again. Go read the documents that South Africa submitted to the ICJ.
Also I'm Dutch, of course I know where Palestine is, unlike Americans.
You can be annoyed that your dear precious leader is inconveniencing you with his committing a genocide all you like. That's basically what you're doing. Doesn't change the facts and raging at me because I'm pointing it out isn't going to change anything either. So grow up.
Not even a bit of that is remotely true. Aside from the arrogance. Blocking you now. It’s pointless to even talk to you.
You're a pointless troll, but on the side of genocide. Have you been to Palestine? Spoken to Palestinians? Have you seen the destruction wrought by your proud genocidal cronies?
I hope the screams of children burning haunt you in every waking moment. May your soul burn for eternity.
You can deny or ignore it all you want.
He is committing a genocide or having one committed in his name with his weapons and express permission. He even circumvented congress because it is just that important to him.
If you're voting Biden because you choose to not elect a fascist dickbag, just know you're voting for another fascist dickbag.
Michigan has a large Arab voting base so.
Idc about 'if Trump'. Trump is a fascist and a dumb one at that. Doesn't change jack fucking shit about Israel razing entire cities and the people that live in then. Summarily executing children. Restricting food access, medical, water, shelter, hygiene, privacy and maternity care.
A woman lay on the road giving birth and her family was told at gunpoint to keep walking. They haven't seen her since. A car with a 6 year old in it was blown up. Every university is gone, clinics blown up. Men are rounded up and shot. Civilians bearing white flags following Israeli commands are shot. The graves are robbed, there is no dignity for the dead even. When food supplies do Come in, the people Who try to get a bag of wheat flour are shot at (happened several times). Schools are bombed, protected UN sites are bombed, ambulances are bombed, hospitals are bombed. Electricity is cut and fuel is scarcely coming in.
And that's on top of an apartheid regime that has for decades now governed every single second of the Palestinian's lives, thans in no small part to the unconditional support from folks like Biden from even back when he was a senator and through the Obama years. May I remind you that Biden's Policy hasn't shifted an inch towards Obama's slightly less pro israel stance, but only more towards Trump's, with keeping the embassy in Jerusalem and refusing to work towards a nuclear oversight deal with Iran? The first thing this dude did when children were torn to shreds by Israel's massive bombs was to go around congress and send billions in 'aid'. Meaning more bombs to shred children with.
So yeah. Fuck Trump. But if your callous and indifferent ass can't say "fuck Biden too" then you're not reaching the lowest common bar humanity has and buddy, that bar is pretty fucking low.
He went around congress to send billions worth of weapons and bombs to kill Palestinian children
The guy couldn't be more culpable if he stuck a drone up his ass and flew it into a hospital
Fuck that bullshit
People Who vote for Biden: hooray, genocide!
