Jesus christ what the fuck is it with boomers/silents and Zionism? Like yeah, we know the Holocaust happened and it was horrific, but that doesn’t give Israel carte blanche to perpetrate a Holocaust of their own on Palestinians. Nor, for that matter, should it be used to fully equate the Israeli state with all Jewish people, everywhere, no matter what, which they seem to try to do fucking always.

Based on Biden's own statements over the last 40 years, Israel's genocide IS America's genocide. There is no separation. There is no demarcation... Certainly explains the total disregard for human rights and war crime impunity.

You wanna know the best part? Biden is the best option (out of 2) for Palestinians and global stability. Trump already questioned generals why we can't use nukes ffs.

Real "Cake or Death, but we're out of cake" tier of options.

Biden leaving the office right as he's creating a whole new regional war because of that sweet AIPAC money.

He's the biggest recipient of lobbying money by Pro-Israeli groups out of any Senator in history.

What if Biden hates Harris for taking his dream job from him and is trying to make her lose? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

She's doing a fine job of losing on her own

Polling a few points ahead of probably the worst person that ever ran for president isn't the flex you think it is. Even the person that had every imaginable advantage in her favor managed to lose to a carnival barker. Barely polling ahead with all those right wing endorsements at that.

Nice backpedal. Just admit you’re wrong and walk away.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Neither backpedalling or wrong. You made the claim that she is not potentially losing because of polls where she is barely ahead. I was pointing out that even with all the advantages in her favor, all these Republican endorsements that she's received and running against the worst possible person to ever run as a president, she is barely beating them.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

Sooo… what rights have you lost. I’m still waiting.

She's doing a good enough job at hurting her own chances as is

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Or is that Biden acting as her Wormtongue and whispering lies in her ears?

"Yesss tell them you'll put a Republican in your cabinet, voters will love it!"

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

Lol... "Yesss... Tell the people you wouldn't do anything different a d we're essentially the same. Tell them Dick Cheney is a good leader."

Kamala, "Okay Joe. Thanks for the advice cause I have no clue what I'm doing."

He's such a hardcore Zionist that he'd probably do it for free.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 6 days ago

This is what so many people on Lemmy seem to be missing: Biden is ideologically Zionist.

As a politician, he's taken less lobbying money than most (broadly, not just from AIPAC). He's bought into the cause of building an ethnostate, as much as he lies when he claims to disagree with Netanyahu.
