I think a lot of people are neglecting to think of Biden's lifetime record in public office. The United States is the nation on Earth with the greatest proportion of its own citizens imprisoned and we have Biden's 1994 crime bill in large part to thank for that. Unfortunately it wasn't terribly shocking when he went on to be more supportive of the Palestinian genocide than any other president in US history other than Trump.

Every liberal would be cheering and partying in the streets if Trump got stage 4 cancer.

Then they turn around and say "Wow you're so uncivil for cheering for the guy who has aided in a genocide, helped make COVID a permanent issue, ignored kids in cages, and made Trump run again."

Do they just not see all the issues with their favorite candidates or are they just unable to witness their own doublethink?

I won't excuse genocide. And apparently I'm the devil because of it.

If someone can excuse genocide that's a personal failing they should see to.

There's been so many blue maga types popping up since the news came out and it's hella annoying. For an entire day on bluesky you couldn't go anywhere without seeing some ex Facebook boomer blue maga type glazing genocide joe. God forbid you said anything against him and you got absolutely dog piled and scolded by people who were one wrong turn away from being Trumps strongest soldier.

Watch out, you're going to upset the folks at lemmy.world

Genocide is an antiseptic term for a very nasty thing.

Libs stop thinking in electoralist terms challenge [back-breakingly toilsome]

Democrat politicians abandoned you decades ago and don't have your interest in mind, please please PLEASE stop defending them/putting your hopes on them (and the electoral Kabuki theater in general) and do something about your situation yourselves. Organize, build community, help people in need, use your privilege where it matters.

It's too late for elections, even more if that's the one and only thing you're willing to do politically. You might "win" a presidential term for a democrat president next time but the damage is already done and everything is rotting around you.

All this dumb bickering about "voting for the lesser evil" is incredibly frustrating for people from countries who endured dictatorships. So if anything, listen to them and act before it's too late.

I think gloating about cancer is gross.

I also think using cancer as an excuse for hagiography of a man who knowingly sold weapons for an ongoing genocide is gross.
