Of course, they can't say "war criminal Donald Trump" because that would then invite people to call Biden a war criminal too

The Israel vs Palestine genocide has been ongoing for 75+ years. I do not approve, and my approval has never been sought. Election fraud is something that trump claimed was happening in our jurisdiction while committing (and attempting) it in 2016 & 2020.

If we're talking about war crimes aka continuing the genocide supplies, trump promised to cause more and seek retribution, not peace.

Israel and Palestine have been involved in conflicts for an extended period, yes. Much longer than you've been alive.

Excuse you, your keyboard seems broken.

You can't be both evil and condescending, pick one.

Don't frame the "conflict" where one side unilaterally decided it was entitled to the other's land, chased off hundreds of thousands of people from their homes, built settlements in their place, routinely bombing remaining indigenous populations and operating a brutal miltary occupation where said indigenous population are second class citizens with no autonomy in their own land, as some kind of even handed conflict. It's genocide. The fact that you could come up with a justification for supporting your government in assissting this genocide is repulsive. It doesn't matter that withholding your vote is indirectly supporting Trump, giving your vote to Biden is directly supporting genocide, which is a much larger issue than the political differences between 2 people that more or less believe the same thing but have parties that point them in slightly different directions. Trump or no Trump, you'll still get fascism, you'll still not have abortion access in a ton of states, you'll still have crumbling bridges, exploited migrant workers whose kids are being separated in concentration camps at the border, trans people being denied healthcare, and leftists being arrested explicitly on political grounds.

If you want to make the world a better place you'd do a hell of a lot better to not vote at all, and spend the time volunteering.

Both sidesing genocide, now I've seen it all. Anyway since you don't approve, I can assume you're not going to vote for Biden then?

[-] Mjpasta710@midwest.social 0 points 4 months ago

Would you argue that I vote for trump? There are two options. Trump is ready to accelerate the genocide and give Israel more weapons.

[-] MarxusMaximus@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago

No, you shouldn't vote for Trump, you should probably walk into traffic.
