Biden can do whatever he wants. And people will vote accordingly. It is Biden's responsibility to win people's votes.

People need to start showing Biden in the polls that he needs to address this issue. If Biden does not fix it he will 100% lose the elections Michigan has already proven that to us.

Once the issue is gone, people like me will stop complaining about Biden and start complaining about Trump again.

He can. And if you don't vote for Biden because he's bad, then Trump will win, Palestine will be genocided, Ukraine will be genocided, trans and gay people will be genocided. Biden will have lost nothing, meanwhile. He doesn't really want to be the president again anyway, and he's not Palestinian, Ukrainian, trans or gay.

You'll sit back, sip your martini and be "wow, look at all those genocides! Good thing I didn't vote for Biden!"

Go tell Biden to stop his Genocide instead of spending your energy defending it.

I did. He didn't listen. That's why I'm planning to not vote, and let several concurrent genocides happen that I could've stopped by voting for Biden because if it isn't going to stop all 8 genocides, what's the point of only stopping 7?

Try telling Biden again. Don't forget to tell him that he will not win unless he stops his Genocide and that makes you really sad because even though you don't care about Brown people being Genocided, surely we can't risk a White person being Genocided.

I’m not quite as pessimistic about it as you are. Regardless, not voting for biden is a vote for trump: it sucks, I don’t like it, but pretending anything else is reality is copium at best and actively aiding fascism at worst.

Pretending that Biden supporting Genocide isn't Fascism is the real copium and actively aiding fascism.

You have two candidates supporting genocide in Palestine and one that also supports genocide in Ukraine as well as concentration camps at home.

See it as an harm reduction mechanism, not an enthusiastic support. If you can't land the plane safely, choose to crash on the river rather than on the kindergarten.

You have two candidates supporting Genocide.

But only one of them has a voting base that will support it.

So you have one candidate that can support Genocide. And that's Trump.

And to be fair, I doubt Biden would support it personally if he had the political ways not to.

You mean this guy?

Or this guy?

Or maybe this guy?

Biden will try to continue it as long as he doesn't drop too far in the polls. Only if his ratings tank will he undertake action.

The most powerful man in the world doesn't have the power to not support it. Not even "stop" it, just not support it??

Biden definitely has the power. He just isn't incentivized to stop it.

friend, i appreciate you and you are absolutely right. i'm not sure if you are aware of how much the US is tied to israel. i have been learning more and more everyday. one thing that chills me is that multiple states, both red and blue, including NY and TX, have stock in israel bonds in the hundreds of millions. they have tied it to the state employment pension funds. what do you think state workers would say if their pensions just vanished into thin air because israel tanked?

i don't say this to discourage or police you but we need to have that in the periphery as we are fighting the good fight and arguing with these notions of binary choices and personal responsibility and guilt you should feel should trump win (although it wasn't likely biden was going to win anyway, "nvm that" they will say). some people have their whole futures secured by the zionist project and some of them are everyday folk and may not even know what is propping up their privilege and security.

biden absolutely has the power to stop this. could he get fucking sued to fuck all because of it, i imagine so. but the pressure is on, and felt! he has said that airdropped aid will come, and that there needs to be immediate ceasefire. i haven't read the word permanent yet but this means we know its working. we just need to crank up the heat a little more and make sure we drill this screw all the way into the stud.

i don't have high hopes on the outlook and i think dune is a good reference here since timing and all. its like when paul can't see beyond certain ridges of time in his visions. i'm not trying to say that I am psychic like that but i think collectively we all have this massive anxiety and its hard to project thought and planning into the future because there are so many bends and curves that we could take that we can't predict. anyway, i appreciate your persistence here and i pray you stay safe.

okay...

i imagine so.

You seriously believe the president can be sued over policy decisions? Can you quote a precedent for that?

i'm thinking zionist democrats and republicans would at least try to if he just abruptly stopped sending israel money and arms

You can’t sue a President over a policy decision or anything that is done as part of official duties. Is that seriously the extent of your understanding of the legal and political systems?
