      I’m starting to think all the “refuse to vote Biden because genocide” folks on here are propaganda bots. Like we know we’re gonna have one of the two shit nuggets here, yall really wanna choose trump and get everything else terrible too?

        I remember reading a few years ago that propaganda bots stopped even making posts, they just engage in vote manipulation (Reddit not here) because the bots were so successful that real people now parrot their points

        Propaganda bots on a site with like 12 active users is more likely to you than people not wanting to vote in support of genocide?

        I don’t think people who care about genocide are bots because most liberals have no actual morals and only care about their comfort being maintained and not actually fixing anything. Everyone knows Trump is worse. He is not the current President now.

      Israel doesn’t need any support past the US preventing the UN from actually doing anything concrete, which is exactly what the Biden administration is giving them.

      With the exception of airdropped supplies into Gaza, which other countries are also doing, and that hasn’t been enough to prevent famine, what would Trump even do to make things worse?

      Committing US assets to a war in the middle east is one of the three things Trump’s voter base won’t actually support.

        First of all, I didn’t name names. But how would a Republican be different? They’re all hawks. They wouldn’t pressure Israel to wind things down at all, they might even put boots on the ground

          Why are you getting into weird hypotheticals? If it’s a republican, it will be Trump. If it’s not, because he straight up dies, they’ll still be the same voter base: a voter base which isn’t going to accept boots on the ground.

          “Pressuring” Israel has done precisely fuck all, which is my point. Because by “pressuring” you mean “asking nicely”.

          And you’re right: a republican wouldn’t be different. That’s what I’m saying.
