PS.

I would for vote Kamala. I would vote for a cactus with sunglasses if it had the Democratic nomination. You would do yourself well to consider anything that is weaking the resolve of the anti-trump sentiment straight poison to your brain. We have only one job this novemeber and that is to stop trump. The Supreme Court has given him the status of king. Quit acting like your vote is sacred and start realizing your vote is your final cry before your rights are forfeited.

Biden does one thing wrong. And that is Gaza. There is a shit ton he has done right:

Supreme Court reform

Student loan debt relief

Healthcare reform

Renewable energy act

Banking reform

Agriculture subsidies to be ecological

Helping local farms

Weed restriction reclassification

Tech privacy restrictions

Making medicare more accessible

Veteran affairs

And quite a few more. Give credit where credit is due. He's worked hard for us.

Supreme Court reform? Did Clarence get the boot without anyone noticing? Are there more than 9 now?

I think it was yesterday he filed for term limits? As well as an ethics code? It's still early. But it's a step in the right direction.

A toothless, self imposed ethics code, and he sat on term limits for 3 years

He's asking for congress to impose the ethics code. I believe the people on NPR politics called the democrats handling of the Supreme Court for the last 50 years political malpractice. Only makes sense they would chose the least impactful route to try to fix it, 50 years too late.

Sanctioning and providing material support for a genocide is not in the same category as any of these things.

Sanctioning and providing material support for a genocide is not in the same category as any of these things.

Why pick that and why pick that now, this time? Why not before? Why not other genocides? Is it because you look good in a keffiyeh?

"Why do you care about the Gaza's genocide" is telling on yourself

“Why do you care about the Gaza’s genocide” is telling on yourself

Allow me to spell it out for you:

"Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians NOW vs the last several decades of Israel's apartheid state? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of trans people in America? Why do you care about the genocide of Palestinians but not of Ukrainians?"

This shouldn't be hard to figure out. People chose this issue now because they can afford to ignore the consequences of a Trump (or even just GOP) administration. They don't have to deal with what happens and that fact allows them to prioritize one genocide over another.
