    For people downvoting this.

    Genocide Joe uses the same mechanic as DEI, or MAGA. It is an ampliganda slogan.

    It was used for a political purpose. Elections.

    Yall need to realize this and move on.

      Exactly. I’m in no way defending Biden’s handling of Israel, but it was never a question that he was the lesser of two evils for Palestinians at the polls.

            I think you’re all gaslighting yourselves on this issue. Your opinion changes based on which team’s guy is in charge.

              Not at all. I’m just aware that whenever people criticized Biden about Israel, they never had any interest in looking Trump’s relationship with Bibi. He has an Israeli settlement named after him in Golan Heights as gratitude for removing restrictions on Israeli settlements on Palestinian territory, or that he said “Israel should just finish the job and stop recording all the videos” of their atrocities.

              If you’re going to shout GeNoCiDe JoE during election season and tell people not to vote for him, you should finish the sentiment with the truth, that abstaining from the election would result in Trump winning, which is exactly what happened.

                Mate, I get exactly what your throwing down. This whole thread is wild. The disconnect is absurd. I feel like folks are trolling? I honestly am baffled.

                  Thanks for that. It could be trolling. In the US, the right needs to fall in line, but the left needs to fall in love. That’s why right-wing propaganda is usually just discrediting the left, rather than promoting the right. They do it because it works.
