Holy shit you're stupid oh my God. Actual "adults in the room" brainrot.
I haven't been alive for 70 years, but I've cared about Palestinian suffering and Israeli colonialism since I was 15. You don't give a fuck, whining about a "viable solution" as an excuse to support the status quo while your "harm reduction" candidate ships off bombs for Israel to flatten another Palestinian village. There is no electoralism when it comes to imperialism, some mythical candidate that will somehow end US interference abroad by decree (where I specifically, in my other comment, brought up the point that any Democratic leadership will simply finance the farthest rightward candidate in the GOP instead of moving left in order to coerce idiots like you into thinking you came up with the brilliant rational idea of voting for the "lesser evil" anyways—shown by, in that comment, the DNC leading Trump to power prior to the 2016 election, and Democratic funding by the millions for far-right Republicans).
I don't just "disagree with" your reasoning, you have made claims that are objectively false and when asked to own up to this you default back to "give me a better option," as if you don't have to justify your default option. Voting for Biden is not harm reduction, and as far as a solution goes it's found in shipping your money off to Ansar Allah and Iran rather than playing the electoral game, since the liberation of the colonies is fundamentally the first step in eliminating bourgeois electoralism as the height of domestic political action.
It's so naive to act like Israel just showed its "true fascist colors" or that the issue can be limited to Netanyahu, Zionist leaders since before the founding of Israel openly writing down their plans for the colonization and ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
I already showed in another reply that Biden has repeatedly bypassed Congressional approval for weapons sales to Israel, all you had to do was scroll up (you had five days to do this) and you wouldn't embarrass yourself like this Jesus. This "Congress is holding him back" myth has been so thoroughly disproven that your brain has to be leaking out of your ears to repeat it.
Oh wow I had no idea he was working to overturn 70 years of foreign policy. Has Biden even paid lip service to an end to US support for Israel, or has he, on the contrary, kept up material support while "scolding" Netanyahu to placate critics?; to quote my reply that you had five fucking days to read:
"The settler state of Israel already has blind, unwavering support from Biden, and if you think otherwise you've been duped. It reminds me of those 'leaked' conversations that libs fell for wrt US support for Saudi Arabia. You on the one hand have Biden calling for Israel to stop its genocide, and on the other quietly shipping them the weapons to continue it. It's all optics."
Wow you'll get signatures? Maybe the US will send more "aid" while at the same time backing the genocide diplomatically and financially, this disparity really being a sign of progress and not a cynical way of keeping up appearances without changing anything.
