        The person you’re demonizing is a minority opinion…especially on Lemmy.

        Linkerbaan, I recognize your username and can say we are very closely aligned, but you’re misrepresenting why the majority of people here are sick of people demonizing Biden. He is not well-liked even by left-leaning users but shitting on him all the time only makes it more likely that Trump will win.

        Unfortunately we only have the choice between bad and extremely bad this cycle and now is not the time to tank our chances to make the next election better. The lesser of the two evils is still evil but actively campaigning AGAINST the lesser evil is nearly the same thing as campaigning FOR the greater evil.

          The person I am Demonizing is everyone that pretends like Genocide Joe is a viable option

          Anyone voting for Genocide Joe is not closely aligned with me whatsoever.

          Fearmongering is the same rhetoric Netanyahu uses to commit Genocide. "Either we kill all the Palestinians or we’re going to be killed! It’s the necessary evil!

          And I don’t care for libs pretending they are left.

          Anyone pandering for Biden on Lemmy turns out to be a war crime apologist shilling against Snowden and Assange etc.

            “Genocide Joe” is literally the only viable option this election but that doesn’t mean he’s a GOOD option. The other options are RFK and Trump, both significantly worse in basically every regard.

            That’s just not true, man. I have no idea how you can think that.

              Man names RFK as a viable option while leaving out other third party candidates…

              Also literally be on Lemmy and see the most prominent Blue MAGA supporters cheer on Assagne and Snowden getting jailed.

              The same people were also cheering on israel back when it was popular 7 months ago

                Ah, yes, the third party candidates to split the vote now that the Reps are leading in key states. Great strategy you got all around for the other side.

                  Indeed Biden is a losing ship. Time to jump it. West looked best but Jill Stein seems like a great alternative right now

                    I’m not a boat race guy but I don’t think you normally jump off a ‘losing’ ship.

                    You seem weirdly unfamiliar with common idioms, wonder why that is ;)

                    Also Stein- lol- awesome!

                Snowden and Assange are Genocide maniacs.
