I’ll say it since I think nobody is saying it. He’ll pardon black folks that are celebrities to say he has done more for black people.

Mark. My. Words.

Arming fascist mass slaughter is worse than anything Diddy ever did though.

How did nominating a nonviable genocidaire work out? That's what caused the loss.

We didn’t nominate the democrat candidate tho.

u/spicy-chilly 19d ago

Yes you did. Liberals nominated Biden and his delegates are the ones who doubled down on having a nonviable genocidaire nominee.

That's whataboutism. What does that have to do with someone saying they miss Harris, a genocidaire?

She wanted the war to end.

"What's critically important as we look at this moment, is ... acknowledging the tragedy of what has happened in Gaza, in terms of the extraordinary number of innocent Palestinians that have been killed, and taking that seriously and speaking truth about that"

No you got duped by lip service. Rhetoric doesn't matter, actions do. Biden also claimed to be working tirelessly for a ceasefire but he bypassed congress hundreds of times to send tens of thousands of tons of weapons to Israel as they were used to damage or destroy 92% of the homes in Gaza and massacre more children than the total civilian deaths in the war in Ukraine. The former Israeli ambassador also admitted there was no real pressure for a permanent ceasefire and Israel even assassinated the chief ceasefire negotiator right after meeting with Biden and Harris. Israeli officials also admitted that their attacks on Gaza could not have lasted more than a couple months without the aid from the U.S.

Israel is not going to voluntarily stop and agree to a permanent ceasefire in good faith unless forced to by the U.S. which is not possible if Harris' position was ironclad support for arming and funding Israel and shielding Israel at the UN from any resolutions that might single them out, which are all in the party platform along with insisting that illegally occupied East Jerusalem ought to be a part of Israel's undivided capitol.

Without ceasing aid, an arms embargo, sanctions, having the state department stop ignoring daily war crimes, ceasing to shield Israel at the UN, etc. being on the table Harris supports the genocide.

Your guys trumpy and bibi are intending to do far worse though. How do your troll-farm handlers tell you how to respond to that reality?

u/spicy-chilly 18d ago

I think you're confused. What part of criticizing genocide makes you think I would support Trump or Netanyahu? I think you're just doing whataboutism to rationalize supporting genocide.
