There's an entire israeli cabinet screaming for the extermination of all Arabs.

And Biden gets on his knees and bypasses Congress to give that cabinet weapons.

This is not a Netanyahu problem. Netanyahu is just the spoilt child raised by Biden who knows there will not be any punishment for his crimes.

Every supposed red line Biden set has been broken and there have been zero consequences. In fact Biden wants to give them 17 billion dollars for doing such a good job Genociding Palestinians.

Are you saying it's not possible to do worse than Biden?

Trump is worse than Biden

Is it not possible to do better than Biden?

Not in a two party system like the United States have. You can only choose the less terrible option, because doing anything else is only helping the really bad choice.

If our system requires us to vote for genocide, then doesn't that mean our system needs to be repealed and replaced with a new system that does not require such evil?

I have no stake in American politics, just observing from the outside. But yes you’d probably need a massive systemic reform, but that will not happen because half your population is against any reason or rationality categorically opposed to whatever the progressive side wants. That, and the entrenched billionaires who would probably assassinate political leaders seeking actual change.

Agreed. But does that mean that such a reform should not even be pursued?

[–] GregorGizeh 3 points 6 months ago

I certainly agree, I just don’t think that not electing biden, when the only other realistic outcome is trump, is the way to start that process. This needs a lot of grassroots work, probably including bringing over progressive democrats into a new progressive party which could be an actual player during the next election.
