We should be criticizing our old, conservative president Biden. He needs to 180 his stance.

Also not voting for him in Nov is vapid and invalidates any defense of the Palestinian people you have.

It sucks, but it's reality.

And then Trump will make things infinitely worse, and we'll have to fight that same stupid battle over who's to blame for the next 4 years. Wash, rinse, repeat.

Yeah, I don't understand hating Biden for something that Netanyahu is doing. And there's only so much Biden could do other than try to play peacekeeper, which he's been doing. Pretty much any other actions require congressional support. Biden isn't a king, he can't unilaterally declare that we're ending all support for Israel.
And yet an insane number of people act like he's over there killing Palestinians with his bare hands.

You could also argue, if Biden loses it will be because of his uncritical support for Israeli war crimes.

Nobody is forcing Biden to alienate his base.

And, although I personally don't believe Joe is supporting genocide, it's not very realistic to expect people to vote for someone who (in their mind) is supporting genocide.

Weird way to assign blame. It's not the Democratic party's fault for having bad policies, it's the public's fault for not supporting the Democrats regardless of their policies. If Biden loses it's because his party made bad decisions.

i've been watching this freight train loom ever closer and... thank you for seeing it too...
this is the albatross around the neck of biden... and it's killing my soul
i know, in my heart, trump would've done the same thing, and many worse things...
but ffs, why are the liberals completely blind to a blatant genocide?

I think taking the delegates from NH because moderates keep losing to progressives is a bigger deal that will effect turnout.

Biden's and the DNC's excuse that the state Dem party wasn't able to convince the Republicans running NH into changing the law that NH has to schedule primaries first is an incredibly flimsy excuse.

There was nothing the NH Dem party could do to comply with the DNC.

And of all people, Biden should have been understanding that Dems can't force Republicans to do something they don't want to do.

Just making the demand to begin with was incredibly fucked up.

It was an impossible demand, and they act like it was an easy thing that the state party could somehow do with a snap of their fingers.

The only way it could have happened, is if the Dem party broke state law.

And a national party demanding a state party break their own laws to give the favored candidate an advantage is something I honestly thought would just be a Republican thing at least for a couple more elections cycles.

It’s just idiots, can’t escape them. Not on Reddit, not on Lemmy, and not when it comes to deciding our shared fate via elections. And I assume some portion of the “genocide Joe” crowd are just plants.

You can demand better from your elected officials, while continuing to vote for them. Joe is a horrible democrat candidate, and I have zero qualms about making that known. But he’s also the only candidate the party has been willing to put forth, so it’s who I’ll end up voting for. That doesn’t mean I need to be happy or enthusiastic about voting for him.

Biden is actively giving money to a genocidal state, I'm still going to vote for him because the only other choice is a literal fascist who wants to start genocides here as well.
