In other news: Glasses needed? Biden administration fails to read the room, runs into walls
Why would they do that? Everyone is going to vote for him regardless of what he does (other then die of natural causes, but even then.) There is absolutely no downside for the people behind this decision, and they all stand to benefit either monetarily or for future career prospects.
Except a majority in the US disapproves of Israels recent actions and they are risking their victory - which is likely gonna be a close one - for next to nothing. Even if they really don’t give a fuck, they could have just postponed the decision.
So what? Do you think the dems care about what “blue no matter who” liberals approve of? What are they gonna do vote for trump?
Uhm, no, you might be surprised, but I’m not worried about voters who’s vote is set in stone.
Ok sure buddy, enjoy living outside reality.
Don’t worry the Dems aren’t worried about those votes or any other voters either.
Send them to Ukraine, I want to complete my Top Gun roleplay fantasy
The genocide isn’t going to commit itself.
Our God here in the US is Mammon, even though he usually goes by other names; rational self-interest, the invisible hand, etc.
Mammon would never let genocide get in the way of glorious profit.
April Fools right guys? Haha… ha…
Big cri
Genocide Joe doing his things…
Be sure to get out and vote for a piece of shit in November everyone!
It’s a shitty choice between
“Business as usual center right Joe Stability Biden, representing rich old business people with a smile and a grandfatherly handshake” and
“My followers LITERALLY want Hand Maids Tale style Christian Fascism in this country and they have a plan to do it and that’s fine with me as long as I get to win and avoid criminal prosecution, also I’m a wannabe Russian mobster! Donald Trump”
So yes, DO make sure to get out and vote against a piece of shit this November.

And Trump wouldn’t be supporting the genocide a million times worse?
Hate him, he deserves it. It’s a terrible situation, but it will become even more terrible if it turns into a Republican victory, and some of that responsibility is in fact on the heads of people too angry to see and do what needs to be done.
Underneath it all, there’s a tragic, numeric reality and we have to confront it.

I mean… don’t look now, but how many times has American “business as usual” been culpable?
No, I described BIDEN as bullshit as usual.
Yeah so genocide is bad but…
The American electoral system just doesn’t work that way. That is a steaming shit sandwich, but… sitting out the election or voting 3rd party because you’re pissed (rightfully so) is like headbutting a goat. It hurts you more than it hurts the goat and the goat doesn’t care or change it’s behavior. The goat in this case is 100% the collective body of American Democratic voters and the assholes who run the DNC. They will NOT care. They will learn all the wrong lessons. They are old and out of touch and they pull to the right every time they lose.

No, I want you to vote AGAINST the insane vampires. Stop thinking of the US electoral system as something where you vote FOR somebody. We haven’t had an option that truely represented us in literal lifetimes. You have a button for bullshit as usual and you have a button for “FUCK WOMEN, FUCK TRANS PEOPLE, FUCK IMMIGRANTS, HAHAHAHAH JESUS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS BABY.” If you DON’T push the first button… that IS in fact a reality fail and LOTS of vulnerable people will suffer for the sake of your principals.
It works the other way around too! Voting is trying to drag the goat by her lead and she doesn’t care or change her behavior that way either.
Agreed. You can have a stubborn goat who won’t change or White Jesus with an AK-47 riding a dragon, leading a glorious army to put women and transpeople back in their place. It’s a STUPID choice, but there IS a right answer.
grandfatherly handshake
New euphemism for genocide just dropped.
Nah i’m good.
Well yes, the US is not too picky when it comes to finding customers for it’s arms industry. For example: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2017_United_States–Saudi_Arabia_arms_deal
Here’s a fascinating piece of what appears to be censorship or extremely selective transcribing from transcripts of yesterday’s press briefings. You won’t find this in the transcript of C-SPAN, or the WhiteHouse.gov transcript.
During the White House press briefing yesterday, White House National Security Communications Adviser John Kirby remarked the following — note that’s in brackets was cut from the transcript:
REPORTER: THESE ARE VERBAL URGINGS, NOT COMMITMENTS.
MR. KIRBY: [I KNOW, YOU WANT US TO HANG SOME SORT OF CONDITION OVER THEIR NECK] WHAT I AM TELLING YOU IS WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE ISRAELIS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE AS PRECISE AS THEY CAN BE AND MORE AID IS GETTING IN AND WILL CONTINUE TO TAKE THAT APPROACH.
Yes, verbal conditions would be excellent. He claims the weapons are for defense, but they are clearly being used for disastrous offensive effect to civilians.

Y’know, at times like these, good ol Genocide Joe reminds me of my favorite Cameo song… “Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey, you’re talkin’ out the side of your neck!”
