Voting for genocide is never ok, no matter what mental gymnastics you go through to justify it. If the other major party's candidate is no better, fight to change your party's nominee, or vote third party. There is always an alternative.

Every war we get the same bullshit from apologists for the war. They falsely claimed we were traitors when we opposed the Vietnam war, supported Saddam when we opposed the Iraq War, support Putin if questioning the official line & strategy re Ukraine & claim we support Hamas if opposed to genocide in Gaza. They miss the fact that the government lies about every war.

It is looking even less likely that the Georgia case (which might be most damaging to Trump) won't occur until after the election. Democrats must replace Biden or odds are Trump returns to the White House.

Donald Trump has been attacking the US legal system for legitimately convicting him of a felony.
Joe Biden has been attacking the International Court of Justice for legitimately seeking to try Netanyahu for genocide.

2024-05-30 16:49:01

If you are telling me that I can only vote for the Democratic candidate, despite being responsible for genocide, and cannot vote either Republican or preferably third party, you are the one promoting a one party dictatorship.

When Democrats claim that Biden is the most progressive president since LBJ or FDR it tells me two things--they are delusional and that they are happy with what he is doing. The second tells me that they are not our allies.

Whoever is sworn in as president in January will bring the country closer to fascism. The difference is that if Biden is in office Democrats will help him do so. If Trump is in office they will protest and attempt to stop him.

Joe Biden is a Ronald Reagan/Dick Cheney Democrat, not an FDR Democrat.

Biden is very unlikely to win. The best hope would have been dumping Biden but unprincipled Democrats who defend Biden despite genocide are destroying the little chance of doing that. If Democrats had shown some signs of principle, they could have forced Biden out, as LBJ was forced out in 1968. Instead we will probably have Trump again because, like in 2016, Democrats will stick by the candidate selected by their party no matter how terrible.

Biden continues to trail in the battleground states as traditional Democratic voters abandon him. I hope the voters who are doing the right thing in refusing to vote for Biden help fight the duopoly by voting third party as opposed to just staying home.

Democrats say they are campaigning to defend democracy but Biden is pushing a massive expansion of the FISA law through Congress which would expand warrantless surveillance of Americans. The law has already been greatly abused to go after protestors in the United States and the expansion will make matters far worse.

Iran responded to an attack by Israel with a demonstration of force, showing it could penetrate the Iron Dome in a strike designed to avoid loss of life. In contrast, Israel responded to a terrorist attack which it provoke by intentionally killing tens of thousands of innocent civilians.
