    I’m glad other people are noticing the propagandist nature of the people you’re talking about.

    For specificity’s sake, we’re talking about the people who drumbeat on “genocide,” lay the entirety of the blame for that at Biden’s feet, and push not voting for Biden as the “solution.” They also so very carefully leave out important details like how congressional Republicans are putting forward legislation that would disallow Biden from pausing arms shipments to Israel (which Biden has said he’d veto).

    And the propagandists aren’t here in this thread because that doesn’t work in this context. That being the context of reality where another Trump presidency would so very obviously be exponentially worse, not just for Palestinians, but for all manner of people in multiple places around the world, including the United States.

    I am 100% in favor of criticizing the US’ relationship with Israel, especially considering Israel’s present actions against civilians. I would also like to maintain a US government that allows such criticism.

      “I would also like to maintain a US government that allows such criticism”

      And you are okay telling people to vote for Biden? You do realize he is 100% for the Antisemitism Awareness act that uses the IHRA’s definition that makes it a hate crime to criticize the state of Israel, right?

      You do realize his response to students peacefully protesting is a several billion dollar police bolstering package, right?

      Liberals are the worst, dude. Scream about fascism all day long but only if it comes from an orange moron. Biden can do basically anything and people would still say “vote for the lesser evil”.

      I feel like every time I come on here I am reading propaganda but people are probably just that ignorant.
