    Notice how these ding dongs you’re tangling with only ever say bad things about Biden/Democrats? They’re either active propagandists or fully taken by them.

    The question to ask here, to really lay it out: Whether you like it or not, politics in the US are between Republicans and Democrats. The presidential election is between Biden and Trump. Who’s worse by a country mile?

      They’ll say “They’re both the same!”

      One will make it MUCH harder to organize and fight for a better future, in addition to very likely destroying what democracy we do have in this country and murdering hundreds of thousands of minorities.

      The other will do, effectively, very little about anything, as insufficient as that is.

      I think the choice is obvious, but apparently fascism is preferable to some self-proclaimed leftists.

        When of course they are not both the same. Hell, even talking about Gaza/West Bank/Golan Heights, who actually thinks that the US with Republican control of Congress and POTUS wouldn’t double the fuck down on enabling the Israeli government to subjugate Palestinians?

        I’ve been alive long enough to know that the state of politics in the US since about 2012 is not normal, and that abnormalcy all comes from conservative lunatics, who are growing in number, or have always been there quietly, or both.

        But really, as long as the commentary is just about how bad Biden/Democrats are … “Go home, Russian propaganda.”

          Hey now!

          It might be Israeli propaganda they’ve been fed. Bibi needs a Trump administration to keep him in power so he can genocide the West Bank too.

            It’s a simple fact that Russia has been interfering with US elections using propaganda campaigns online since at least 2015, probably much earlier. They You continue to do so now.

            Whether you like it or not, politics in the US are between Republicans and Democrats. The presidential election is between Biden and Trump. Who’s worse by a country mile?

            Go on, now. Say a bunch of bad things about US Democrats while utterly ignoring the dumpster fire that is the Republican party. I’ll wait.
