While rebutting another post here on Lemmy, I ran into this. This says exactly what I want to say.
I am not a friend of Biden’s Administration. I think they drug their feet over a variety of things ranging from holding Trump and his goons accountable for January 6th through rulemaking on issues like OTC Birth Control and abortion rights, and yes, I think he’s too quick to please big business. But then I remember what the alternative is, and … well, disappointed in Biden or not, I’m voting for him. Because my wife is a Black bisexual goth woman, four strikes under Team Pepe’s tent. And I have my own strikes for marrying her as a White dude, and respecting her right to not have kids since she doesn’t want them is another strike against me. And I care about my Non-Christian, Gay, Transgender, and Minority friends, and will never willingly subject them to Team Pepe.
The palestinians seem to disagree with you
No no let’s just compromise on [checks notes] genocide too. As long as it’s someone else.
The short term harm reduction strategy is a long term harm increase strategy.
Or we punish biden and establish a precedence that you can’t support genocide and get re elected
That would be a welcome change! Jackson got re-elected in 1832 after he made “Indian removal” a priority of his first term.
I think its fair to say that there is a difference between then and now as some polls show a decent number of Americans are against whats going on there. Although we’ll see i guess
Do you think Trump would be better for Palestine? The man who pardoned war criminals and who promised to ban Palestinians from USA?
No, that’s why I’m not voting for a president that stands for genocide :)
That’s why I always vote for myself. I mean, I know I won’t win but I feel really good knowing that my vote went to someone who perfectly aligns with my morals.
I always vote for genocide
