We should be criticizing our old, conservative president Biden. He needs to 180 his stance.

Also not voting for him in Nov is vapid and invalidates any defense of the Palestinian people you have.

It sucks, but it's reality.

Eventhough Trump moved the embassy to Jerusalem and supports the complete destruction of gaza

And then Trump will make things infinitely worse, and we'll have to fight that same stupid battle over who's to blame for the next 4 years. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Yeah, I don't understand hating Biden for something that Netanyahu is doing. And there's only so much Biden could do other than try to play peacekeeper, which he's been doing. Pretty much any other actions require congressional support. Biden isn't a king, he can't unilaterally declare that we're ending all support for Israel.
And yet an insane number of people act like he's over there killing Palestinians with his bare hands.

Weird way to assign blame. It's not the Democratic party's fault for having bad policies, it's the public's fault for not supporting the Democrats regardless of their policies. If Biden loses it's because his party made bad decisions.

It’s just idiots, can’t escape them. Not on Reddit, not on Lemmy, and not when it comes to deciding our shared fate via elections. And I assume some portion of the “genocide Joe” crowd are just plants.

You can demand better from your elected officials, while continuing to vote for them. Joe is a horrible democrat candidate, and I have zero qualms about making that known. But he’s also the only candidate the party has been willing to put forth, so it’s who I’ll end up voting for. That doesn’t mean I need to be happy or enthusiastic about voting for him.

Biden is actively giving money to a genocidal state, I'm still going to vote for him because the only other choice is a literal fascist who wants to start genocides here as well.

I don't think it's that simple, especially for people of colour, and especially for those with Arab and especially Palestinian heritage.

America hasn't been great to us ever. Since 2001 it has gotten distinctly worse for us.

A lot of us have family who are being or have been bombed by the US indiscriminately. The US and Joe Biden is funding a genocide. That's not made up. That's not a joke. The US is more upset that the Houthis raised global shipping by a couple percent than they are that the ally that they give the most money to has killed north of 25000 defenseless people in three months.

I agree that voting for trump is going to make it worse for everyone, which is why I will still vote for Biden. But I voted begrudgingly for him last time, because I knew he was fake, and not really liberal. He hasn't stood by a single campaign promise he made. If a legitimate, liberal, left wing third party came up, I would vote for them immediately. Choosing between one racist piece of shit and a more racist, more orange piece of shit is not a great choice.

Again, I agree that trump would be a million times worse for brown and black people. But I get why a lot of Arab Americans and black Americans are fucking tired of it, and want to make a point to the DNC. That same party that is not a left wing party or a liberal party, that is completely bought out by corporations (ex. See how they fucked Bernie in 2016), and that will turn around and blame brown and black voters for not delivering them the white house when literally over half.of white women and white men want Donald Trump.

A lot of the people I've spoken to now are done. This was never really our country and politicians have made it even more obvious that it isn't. So the idea that a lot of people have now is "well fuck it, why should we vote to save this country when the people who run this country keep.fucking it up and especially fucking us over. It's time for whitey to do his/her part if they actually care, and if they don't fuck it, we will leave"

It's not about growing up, it's about being tired of being second or third class citizens. The only reason this is getting such a big shout-out now is because the policies are finally starting to affect white people, white women in particular. And yet somehow.still over half of them want trump in.

So much “genocide Joe” bullshit. People that will refuse to vote, and then completely absolve themselves when they hand it to Trump and the genocide escalates.

One can literally hate Joe Biden, and still continue to vote for Joe Biden. If I am in the position of voting for democratic candidates that aren't funded by AIPAC, and is willing to be critical against Israel, I'd vote for them unless forced to (the other candidate is a Republican.). I think the responsible thing to do is to continue criticizing the decision to support Israel, as well as their action, reject Hamas, vote for democratic candidates and try picking the ones that aren't paid for by the AIPAC.

Ok, protesting and poking Joe with a stick is not the same as refusing to vote for him in the general election.
