Biden better start cancelling student debt and arming Palestinians fast if he doesn't want to lose then

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 47 points 5 months ago

Real talk, libs would flip their shit if he actually armed Palestine. A ceasefire to stop torturing babies on camera is something even many cynical libs can support. Arming a group that CNN calls terrorists would quickly remind us why libs are fucking tools

Their politics are really just "I don't like what I'm seeing on TV and I would like to speak to the writers please." Talking to my boomer relatives, the thing that bothers them the most about Trump 2: Electric Boogaloo is that they will have to see him on the news again

[-] Dessa@hexbear.net 27 points 5 months ago

This is every lib. Trump is a swaggering asshole who embarasses them on a world stage. It's entirely optics for them.

I bet this is quite common among Normal Whites. I think triumphalist rhetoric about Biden losing to trump in 2024 is premature

I'm not trying to assume your family is white, comrade, just that this kind of normalcy fetishist lib is a important voting demographic

As if he hasn’t been on the news constantly since he became president.

[-] supafuzz@hexbear.net 10 points 5 months ago

seeing him on the news because he's in court is fine

Genuinely at this point if he wants me to vote for him it’s more than a ceasefire I need, I want air strikes against Tel Aviv and military aid going directly to Hamas

And while I certainly don’t think that’s like, the majority opinion, I do think it would give him a much higher chance of winning than what he’s doing right now

[-] CommunistBear@hexbear.net 43 points 5 months ago

Hamas' rockets are bad and given their unguided nature there is a good chance they hit civilians. That is why Hamas and all resistance factions should be given guided missiles instead

Settlers aren't civilians, but otherwise sure

sicko-wistful

No no no. Biden's numbers cratered when he left Afghanistan; anything but vocal support for Israel would get him completely castigated by every US institution and throw off the ballot.
