"Muslim Americans in swing states cut off nose to spite face"
Why no. Naturally, they'll want to ensure Trump can become an authoritarian dictator.... 'cos that will make lives really good for them, right? Also, I disagree with your premise that Biden is prosecuting a genocide.
"I disagree with your premise that most cats are born with four legs"
Being against Biden doesn't mean being for Trump. You can't expect people in power to look out for your interests and opinions if you keep rewarding them for not being as shit as the worst of them.
And Biden is helping the genocide go on by choosing not to at least condemn Israel's actions (though that would be the definition of a limp dicked response). Though a stronger response would be better.
Mathematically it does in a FPtP system. You will keep bashing your head against Durverger's Law until we get rid of FPtP.
Some people can't wrap their head around strategic voting, tacitly choosing the greater evil.
It's a lot easier to stick your fingers in your ears in go "LALALA I CANT HEAR YOU ITS TOO CONFUSING" than it is to come to terms with the fact that your own ignorance has been actively helping the death march towards fascism we've been on.
Isn't it weird how the hexbears and far right fascists sound the same and end up supporting all the same things?
Protests, voting in local elections, not letting Ron 'all the Muslims in the world should die' DeSantis win the white house? Just a few options
That's funny, I'm sure you will say that Russia isn't doing genocide in Ukraine, despite there being much more evidence of it, including their leader openly stating that Ukrainian identity needs to be eradicated.
Not to mention how is this going to play out? Biden loses and those same people will end up deported or in camps. It is not like Trump or the GOP wont turn their knives in a moment. I get being mad about Biden not doing the right thing but trying to sabotage the only candidate that still believes in the impartial rule of law is short sighted, to say the least.
Do you seriously not understand how deranged this is?
Come on.
Of course its fucking deranged. The fact I have to choose between two out of touch octogenarians is bonkers. All I am saying is one is bad for a middling response to condemning a war perpetuated by a different country, supported by our arms with very little he can do. Big D dems are grappling with an internally polarized electorate that he doesnt know how to make happy. Hes an old politician doing the best he can. Or you can sit home ans let an angry tryant that has expressly laid out his plans for genocide in our own country. No amount of protest or wish fufillment thinking will get the DNC to back anyone besides Biden. Its the same tunnel vision that happened with Hillary in 2016. Refusing to play dooms us all. Do i like this? Fuck no. But I dont want to watch my trans friends run to Canada to live.
One useful thing this conflict has done is reveal who would have absolutely, 100% been fine with Hitler's policies when living in Nazi Germany. Not even the ongoing extermination of the Palestinians in Gaza and West Bank - millions of people - is sufficient to snap you out of your election fetishism? Biden is continuing most of Trump's policies. He's building Trump's wall. The suite of laws opposing the LGBTQIA+ community is happening under his presidency. Deportations and child imprisonment at record pace. Abortion rights were lost under his watch. The only reaction you are capable of having to this is "Well, imagine how much worse it would be if Trump was the one doing it!" because this is all a giant game to you. You don't have to focus on basic survival, on keeping yourself alive and fed for the next month, and thus considering possibilities outside of the finely-curated electoral circus that your eyes were so expertly programmed to consume. If you were actually affected by any of these policies, you wouldn't be arguing between President Who Will Take My Rights Away #1 and #2, you would be trying to form organizations and survival networks to survive the storm. Any mental or physical effort spent on these elections is wasted energy.
You are the most pliant, brainwashed people in human history. You are completely content to watch every minority around you get fed into the grinder because it's "lesser evillism". First they came for the trans people. Then they came for the immigrants. Then they came for the black people. Then they came for me, and as I got on the train on the way to the gigantic human flesh grinding machine, I thought "Well, at least Mango Mussolini isn't putting me on this train! Boy, if the Republicans were doing this, it would REALLY be fascism!"
Genuine question - how many people would Biden have to kill for you to not support him anymore? A million? Ten million? A hundred million? A billion?
Ok.
So we should just sit back and let Trump take thr reins? He has laid out his next 4 years and it aint pretty. As much as I do not like Biden why would I allow an unabashed monster to destroy what remains of the country?
Aight. 👍
No, he wants to kill people like me and others. He has been clear on this point. Why would you assume he wouldn't do it? He won't have the basic guardrails he had the first time around.
Can you point me to a source which indicates that Joe Biden has expressed a desire to eradicate Palestinian ethnicity?
That's racist as fuck thinking btw.
We're all the way back in 2001 now. War on terror talking points about Muslims engaging in self sabotage if they don't listen to the enlightened liberals are fair game now apparently.
I never realized how much I didn't want to know what reddit would have been like right after 9/11
Muslim Americans vote to become stateless refugees in 2024.
Don't think Trump won't strip your citizenship from you.
He's already said he's bringing back the Muslim ban if he wins.
You'd best believe that these misguided folks are somehow finding lots of new faces wearing red hats offering them lots of "free" money the past two months.
Red guy wants to genocide but can't.
Blue guy is unwilling to genocide but everyone says they are.
Yup, I think we should let the guy who'll probably draft me to go kill more Muslims win the white house, that's obviously better than voting for the guy who doesn't care if Muslims die. I mean, wouldn't you rather be made to serve your country and kill Muslims without that Democrat-voting blood on your hands? Sure, I'm flying towards the middle east to shoot some brown kids in the head, but at least I didn't help that genocide supporter win
