I'm glad other people are noticing the propagandist nature of the people you're talking about.
For specificity's sake, we're talking about the people who drumbeat on "genocide," lay the entirety of the blame for that at Biden's feet, and push not voting for Biden as the "solution." They also so very carefully leave out important details like how congressional Republicans are putting forward legislation that would disallow Biden from pausing arms shipments to Israel (which Biden has said he'd veto).
And the propagandists aren't here in this thread because that doesn't work in this context. That being the context of reality where another Trump presidency would so very obviously be exponentially worse, not just for Palestinians, but for all manner of people in multiple places around the world, including the United States.
I am 100% in favor of criticizing the US' relationship with Israel, especially considering Israel's present actions against civilians. I would also like to maintain a US government that allows such criticism.
