nobody made this argument except you, what was said was that Biden supporters are just like the people whom this flag represents, they’re ok with an actual genocide being committed against other people as long they’re comfortable
I’d be surprised if opponents of genocide would vote Republican instead, given how some GOP reps seem to be opposing even the half-measure of delaying arms shipments.
A two party state where you choose between “fucked up” and “less fucked up, but constantly ceding ground” just does a poor job of accurately representing the opinions of people favouring actual progress, so they’re doing what they can to pull the Overton Window their way.
This is what perpetuates the insanity in US. When your choices are Hitler and 99% Hitler, then the vote is meaningless. A lot of people will just choose not to participate in this circus.
If your choices are Hitler and 99% Hitler, you still do what you can to stop 100% Hitler. Less bad is less bad.
Nobody cares about your smug sense of superiority when 100% Hitler is in charge and you proudly announce “I did nothing to stop this, other than try to encourage other people to also do nothing to stop this.”
Considering I specifically suggested doing something is better than doing nothing, I’m going to go ahead and guess that listening to what other people are saying isn’t a strength of yours.
Doing something is what the students protesting the genocide are currently doing, not voting for the guy doing the genocide. The fact that you don’t understand these basic things is truly phenomenal.
Stalin and Mao liberated hundreds of millions of people, provided them with food, healthcare, education, and jobs. Imagine comparing that to a senile manager of the empire doing a genocide. What is wrong with you?
Meh, you and I both know that we cannot have an honest discussion of Mao or Stalin’s flaws on this instance, the same way we can have an honest discussion of Biden’s.
If you support Biden then you are supporting a genocide that US is currently involved in. Period. The fact that you can’t even admit this just further underscores your utter lack of morality and intellectual honesty.
Ok, but if I don’t support Biden, the other guy is going to continue doing the genocide. Maybe even at a worse pace. So what’s the answer than? Voting on every other decision
Genocide sucks, but America dug this hole for generations. It’s not all on Biden
Your actions are what matter, and if you’re going to vote for the guy who is conducting a genocide then you are complicit. No amount of hand wringing will change that.
People protesting aren’t voting for Biden, the ones who are are denouncing the protests while doing pearl clutching over property damage.
Sounds like Republicans to me.
Then show me the Biden supporter (who isn’t protesting) that wants small government like those who fly the Gadsden flag.
them goalposts be moving
Them goalposts is me asking for the original receipt. Show me the Biden supporter who you claim this flag represents.

This idiotic logic is precisely why US is where it is today.
You mean the logic of “I’m not going to do anything and neither should anyone else”?

This is pretty rich coming from a guy who unironically defends Stalin and Mao for “doing what needed to be done.”
Edit - I mean there you have it. If I explain the meme I’ll get banned but I think any reasonable person can appreciate the whiplash.

We both know that you refuse to accept reality. Facts aren’t on your side though https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25495509/
And Israel is the most advanced nation in the Levant, I guess.
That certainly does sound like something you would think unironically.
If Biden is 99% Hitler than I’m 99% Jesus and it’s rude for you to argue with me.
I’m not going to argue with a supporter of a genocide.
Not a supporter of genocide. I just realize there’s a lot more going on than just that
