ukraine and Gaza is two different things

Israel is doing everything America claims they are against but they'll still sell them weapons.

Dude you called him a senile war pig, and said you want someone different than him in four years

Seems like that is a general commentary on Biden

So it is fair to talk about his entire record

If you were being specific to Gaza, try making a specific comment

 

[WASHED KING]

At this point someone different means Trump, because those are the 2 choices. I'm not rolling with that.

 

[mplsdunk]

I figured you assumed I was talking about Gaza because the video posted.

Putin taking Ukraine isn't ending up being a good thing for anybody, Cold War II.

If trump gets elected, this is how this ends for the US and way too much of the world

This about Ukraine. I know being Polish I have a more personal stake in it but Eastern Europeans hate Russians for a reason.

that's why biden's stance on Israel is ****.

ukraine is defending itself, Israel isn't.

 

[IATT]

Just imagine if any democrat did this

Problem is without Israel the US intelligence in the Middle East has a lot of black holes. It’s sort of damned if you don’t damned if you do.

it's a two way street though. imagine just leaving Israel hanging with the US and Germany just saying you're on your own.

there's a better way than what's happening now, even Elizabeth warren called it a genocide.

 

[elpablo21]

He’s not advocating for Trump either though, he’s advocating for dismantling the system.

What does dismantling the system look like in 2024?

 

[WASHED KING]

The dismantle talk is all a waste of time. We're not dismantling ****.

 

[mplsdunk]

watch me dismantle this cheeseburger.

 

[Nike Jordan]

As a black person, an immigrant and someone who has been lower middle class all their life, that video reeks of privilege to me

There are consequences for Trump coming, ones that should not be downplayed.

People can choose to do whatever they want at the ballot box, and other people can have negative opinions about that

People need to grow the **** up

That comedian is from Australia, so he the election has no real consequence to him.

He probably wants Trump to win so he can a some tickets.

 

[Nike Jordan]

[aepps20]

There really is one choice and that is ridin with Biden. Protest voting, waxing poetically about dismantling the system and other things though noble, totally ignore the real impact another 4 years of Trump will have on everyone. We saw what he did last time, people need to wake the expletive up. You might not be a member of a minority group but anyone that doesn’t think that his corruption and policies won’t impact you isn’t paying attention.

 

[Air Champa]

I've already listened to some leftist talking about their lives not being any different whether Trump or Biden is in office.

Makes me want to puke. It's not like Roe vs Wade being overturned affected anybody, I don't suppose.

I'm really starting to hate these "If you're not willing to overthrow capitalism and replace it with a socialist utopia by yesterday, I'M NOT VOTING" attitudes.

 

[Mark Antony]

Creating an environment that helps Trump win the presidency being equated to 'overthrowing the system' reeks of anti-blackness to me, in a way that I can't yet explain. The thought that 'maybe this will be good for us' reminds me of the bizarre delusion of white supremacist talking points of ode

Essentially it's the "I don't really think i'll be affected by the right's policies" so I don't have to care, screw anyone else. Can't say that though, so it has to be repackaged as something else.

 

[aepps20]

Marches and protests after the election won't work. Clowns did that the last time instead of voting. Whether you think an election will impact you is irrelevant when you KNOW it will impact people thatyou love and respect.

 

[rexanglorum]

These next 6-7 months can’t go by fast enough.

Every discussion of broader issues will be reduced to arguing about voting and those discussions about voting will be freighted down with the weight of every other socio political issue in the world.

This spring and summer will be defined by the most online personalities being generalized by into entire voting blocs and proof that the other side is operating in bad faith. It will be a long fever dream, which will only end in the cool breezes of autumn.

In October, normal, not online people will pay attention for the first time and will instantly be negative polarized against Donald Trump and his rampant criminality and they’ll vote for the kinda slow but fundamentally pretty good guy named Biden and that’ll be that.
