I still don't buy it.
You two are saying Bernie Sanders, famously pictured getting arrested for marching with MLK, is as racist as people like Strom Thurmond, who filibustered the Civil Rights Act, Tim Scott who said welfare is worse for black people than slavery, or Vivek Ramaswamy who said white supremacy doesn't exist?
Ain't no way.
Being okay with genocide anywhere makes you a massive racist yeah, Bernie might perform radical politics but he's still a Zionist who betrayed his voters for the last couple of years on his refusal to speak for Palestinians and for decades by arming Israel.
You're thinking of the world in naive binary Good vs. Evil, handing elections over to the people who, instead of doing a shitty job of fighting genocide (Dem.), would enthusiastically perpetuate it (Rep.).
TL;DR:

Jesus Christ, were we even living in the same universe during the last 3 years? Joe Biden was unquestionably more enthusiastic about supporting genocide than Donald Trump ever was.
Which one is the guy who announced we're going to pave over Palestine to open a resort?
Did you think he was going to give the Palestinians American visas and comp their moving fees?
