Look, in past elections we didn’t have to wonder if not voting for a candidate would have lasting implications for the future of this country and the freedom of the world. This election does.

I already said I'm voting for Biden. I don't need to be lectured into doing something I already said I'm gonna do.

I can also admit to not knowing everything about the geopolitical landscape to know just how much sway Biden may have in his support for the state of Israel. We like to think the president is a king and can snap his fingers to make his will THE will (see all the people thinking Biden can control gas prices, for instance), but that just isn’t so.

Biden circumvented congress to provide weapons that he knew would be used for genocide.

If withdrawing his support won't do anything, we aided a genocide for no reason other than Biden really fucking wanted to. If it will do something, his continued support makes the genocide possible. I do not buy any argument in favor of continuing support for genocide, because there is no good reason for genocide.

Expecting me to buy the "he isn't a king" line when he acted by himself without congress in order to sell Netanyahu weapons when he didn't have to is insulting.
