I am not saying we shouldn't vote for Biden, but acting like we shouldn't be protesting the genocide of Palestinians is bullshit. I know Trump would be worse, but it doesn't mean we should speak out against Biden sending weapons that directly aid in the death of children.

We can't just pretend he isn't complicit in war crimes just because the other option is worse. We should be able to speak out against the atrocities.

Then I think this isn't directed towards voters like you. It's directed toward those who say you shouldn't vote for Biden as a protest.

I am not sure this is effective against those voters. If anything it's shaming, at best, which causes people to dig their heels in. Addressing those voters as petulant children is not the way to bring them on board.
